Valencia have had three players sent off in their last two games in the Primera Division.
“We need to win and not concede a goal. If we score and keep a clean sheet it will be a good result for us. We have our own style and do not focus too much on our opponent, we concentrate on ourselves,” he told a press conference.
“The team is fine, but playing with ten men is a huge sacrifice for both games which has an effect throughout the week. The team is strong and with eleven against eleven I think we can be at our best. In addition, the team has many injuries and it shows, hopefully we will recover and be at the same level as before.”
