Rami: 'Milan are more confident'

AC Milan defender Adil Rami has said that his side are confident ahead of their Champions League meeting with Atletico Madrid.

The two teams meet in the last-16 first leg at the San Siro on Wednesday evening, and Rami believes that the Rossoneri will have to be at their best to get a result against the Spaniards.

"We'll see against Atletico but we're getting better with time," he told the club's official website. "We're getting used to this system and we won so there's more confidence.

"Atletico are a strong team mentally too, they're not your typical team that always looks for the ball like Barcelona, they prefer to play on the counter-attack.

"We'll have to do well against them, we'll have to play at 100%. Diego Costa is fast, always does well and always wants to win. At the moment we have a lot of possession but we're not being dangerous enough, with time and confidence we'll get back to winning with continuity".

Milan have won the European Cup seven times in their history.
