Ronaldo confident ahead of Barca match

The Portuguese believes his side has a good chance of beating the Blaugrana and says that home advantage could be the difference between the sides

Los Blancos beat Getafe on Sunday night in La Liga, with the Portuguese scoring a hat-trick - and his 300th club goal - to help his side to a 4-0 victory.

And Ronaldo believes Wednesday's game provides a good chance to record a first-leg lead against the Blaugrana.

"We will be at home, in our stadium which is a good opportunity for us to take an advantage in the tie," he said. 

"It's a really important game, a difficult game. We will be up against one of the toughest teams in the world so it will be a great night.

"We are missing a few key players - players who are important to us but that shouldn't be an excuse. We need to put in a good game because Barca are an amazing team."

Ronaldo also admitted that los Blancos would have to improve against Barca following their first-half display against Getafe.
