Atletico Madrid goalkeeper Miguel Moya has insisted that his side cannot afford to underestimate Bayer Leverkusen in their upcoming last-16 Champions League clash.
The Spanish club will travel to Germany for the first leg on Wednesday as the firm favourites to advance.
However, Moya believes that Leverkusen will be "difficult" to overcome over the two legs.
"Leverkusen are a German club and they'll be difficult. Things haven't been easy for them in the Bundesliga this season, but they've started to find their form. We're going there with the utmost respect, but also with the utmost desire to get a positive result to give us the advantage," Moya told AS.
Atletico reached the final of last season's Champions League before losing to Real Madrid in extra time.
