Valencia's Rami showing confidence ahead of 'important' Chelsea clash

Valencia defender Adil Rami believes the Spanish club can get the required result against Chelsea tonight.

Los Che need a win or a score draw at Stamford Bridge tonight to finish above the Blues in Group E and Rami feels that he and his teammates are prepared to move into the next phase of the Champions League.

"We are prepared for a battle in London," the Frenchman told skysports.com.

"It will be a night for pride and it is effectively a final, a sensational match for the spectators.

"To stop players like Drogba and Torres is hard work and a big challenge for any defender, and this match is one of the most important in my sporting career.

"We are optimistic but the match will be intense from the first moment and we need to concentrate without showing any nerves.

"I do not have any fear about the atmosphere at Stamford Bridge. To play in such conditions is wonderful for any player."
