Malmo skipper Markus Rosenberg insists that his team will enter Wednesday's Champions League clash at home to Real Madrid without pressure due to their underdog status.

Malmo skipper Markus Rosenberg has said that his team can tackle Real Madrid in the Champions League without pressure.

The Swedish outfit will welcome Los Blancos in Group A on Wednesday evening, with the visitors the firm favourites to triumph.

Rosenberg has accepted that his team are the underdogs, but has claimed that could be to their advantage.

"It will be a fantastic match. It's our second year in the Champions League. We learned a lot last year and I think we had a great game here against Atletico Madrid," Rosenberg told AS. "Now comes an even better team, Real Madrid, so it will be very difficult.

"I scored against Madrid in the Champions League with Werder Bremen. They're a great rival. To be honest, nobody thinks Madrid won't win this game, and they have Cristiano Ronaldo, one of the best in the world."

Rosenberg has scored 11 times in 29 games for Malmo this season.
