Valencia attacker Diego Lopez says they're looking forward to the weekend clash with Real Madrid.

Los Che will host Real Madrid, with Lopez upbeat on their chances.

He said, "Rival teams are scared of coming to Mestalla because it is a crowd that pushes, does not stop cheering and that you feel they're with you.

"The rival doesn't just play against eleven but also against an entire stadium. It helps us and it makes it very difficult for the opponents.

"I want it to be a special match and, if the attention goes away from the pitch, let it be for the firefighters and for all the people who helped in the fire because that's what people have to focus on."
