Manchester City forward Sergio Aguero has revealed that he is hoping to finally be on the winning side against Real Madrid when the two sides meet in the Champions League on Tuesday.

Aguero, who used to play for Real's local rivals Atletico Madrid but has never beaten them, also admitted that victory "will be difficult".

"I was never on the winning side against them so let's hope with City we can beat them," The Express quotes Aguero as saying.

"It will be difficult. Right now Real and Barcelona are among the best teams in the world, but we have a great team too."

Aguero remains a doubt for Tuesday's clash but could recover in time to face his old rivals.
