Arda Turan: "We believe in our ability'

Atletico Madrid midfielder Arda Turan insists that neither his side nor Chelsea are the favourites to advance from their Champions League semi-final tie.

Atletico Madrid midfielder Arda Turan is confident that his side can triumph in their Champions League semi-final second leg against Chelsea.

The two sides played out a goalless draw in the first leg last week, but Turan has said that there are 'no favourites' for the clash tomorrow evening.

"[0-0] is neither an advantage nor disadvantage, just a fresh start," the Turkey international told the Andadolu News Agency.

"We will see. We are a team that fight for every ball; for every second of the game.

"We believe in our ability, our dream. We chase our dreams and go as far as possible to realise them. Atletico supporters know that we give everything we have on the playing field before leaving it - win or lose. We believe we will reach the final."

Turan is expected to return to the Atletico XI against Chelsea following a period out through injury.
