Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has said that his side are confident of beating Galatasaray in their Champions League match on Wednesday.

The Blues travel to Turkey for the first leg of their last-16 tie, and Mourinho admits that he is wary of the attacking threat his team will face.

"I am looking forward to the match because I like to play against the best and Galatasaray are the Turkish champions," he told the club's official website.

"We are going to play to win but we know they are strong. They have many special attacking players and they have lots of goalscorers, we know that. But as I always say, we are trying to build a team for the future and so we are going to play as we always do, by trying to win the game."

Chelsea are currently top of the Premier League table.
