Valencia coach Unai Emery has insisted that his side are capable of defeating Real Madrid later today.

Jose Mourinho's Real travel to Mestalla sitting top of La Liga and defeated Valencia 6-3 when the two teams last met.

However, despite Madrid's lofty position, Emery believes that his team has what it takes to claim a positive result.

"Whoever isn't convinced that we can win should stay away and report to training on Monday," the coach told reporters.

"We can compete with them and can beat them if we have a good game. We are also in excellent form. It's an important game in which a win would mean three points but also a lot of additional motivation.

"We would be a point off the leaders if we were to win tomorrow. Let's hope that the fans help us out."

Valencia are unbeaten at home this season.
