Real Madrid can beat Barcelona in Spanish Supercopa second leg - Karim Benzema

The striker has voiced his belief that Jose Mourinho's side have what it takes to beat the European champions at Camp Nou on Wednesday

Karim Benzema has stressed that Real Madrid have the quality to beat Barcelona in Wednesday evening's Spanish Supercopa second leg at Camp Nou.

Both sides played out an entertaining 2-2 draw in the first leg on Sunday and Benzema is confident that Madrid can do even better in the return to win the Supercup.

"I have a very good feeling after the first leg. We did a lot more than Barcelona in the first leg. We know that we have everything in our own hands and that we have a good chance to beat Barcelona on Wednesday," Benzema said to AS.

"We obviously want to win the Spanish Supercopa and it can still go either way after the first leg. I am convinced that the second match will be an open game and we will go out to play for the win on Wednesday."

Benzema set up Mesut Ozil for the opener on Sunday, but was eventually replaced after 81 minutes of play.

Wednesday's clash between the two Spanish giants will kick off at 23:00 CET.
