Real Madrid defender Raul Albiol knows Valencia is must-win

Real Madrid defender Raul Albiol admits they face a massive test against Valencia today.

Barcelona, after their victory at Real Zaragoza, are now three points behind Real Madrid.

Albiol told club sponsors bwin.com: "The most important thing is that we get the three points and have a good match in front of our fans.

"It will be a very tough match because Valencia did not win their last three league matches and they will want to keep third place.

"We have to collect three points every game. There are still many matches remaining and, for now, we only have to think about the match against Valencia.

"We are very ambitious and we want to win the title in the two competitions we are in - La Liga and the Champions League.

"One last effort from everyone and perhaps we can do it.

"The atmosphere in the dressing room is fantastic, we all get along with each other. You can see it on the field."
