Chelsea winger Willian backs his side to produce "something special" when they take on Barcelona in the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie.

Chelsea winger Willian has backed his side to produce "something special" when they face Barcelona at Camp Nou in the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie.

Willian hit the post twice and scored Chelsea's only goal of the game in a man-of-the-match display in the first leg at Stamford Bridge last month, only for Lionel Messi's equaliser to hand Barca the slight advantage heading into Wednesday's second leg.

The Brazilian was again named man of the match during this afternoon's 2-1 win over Crystal Palace, and he is confident of Chelsea's chances of reaching their objectives both domestically and in Europe this season.

"We have to prepare well for the game. Go there and show character and try to do something special. I think we can do that," Willian told BT Sport.

"We have to carry on, and reach the top four and do something special in the Champions League also."

Chelsea will travel to Camp Nou having not lost any of their last eight matches against Barcelona.
