Liverpool striker Fernando Torres believes his side will beat Real Madrid in their Champions League clash on February.
The Reds are unbeaten in this year's competition but now face a tricky test as they paired against the nine-time champions in the last 16.
Torres faced European heartbreak last season as Liverpool were knocked out in the semi-finals by Chelsea.
However, El Niño is confident that a place in the quarter-finals will be heading to Anfield.
"We all realise that it is going to be a tough tie against Real Madrid," he wrote on his personal site, www.fernando9torres.com.
"I don't like talking about a possible favourite, but I am sure that we are going to qualify for the next round."
Still, the former Atlético Madrid hero admitted he has not had much luck against the Spanish giants previously.
"When I was playing my football in Spain, I used to score a lot against Barcelona," he added. "But I found it harder when playing versus Real Madrid."
