Monaco striker Dimitar Berbatov is confident his side can beat Juventus to qualify for their first Champions League semi-final since 2003-04.

Despite suffering a 1-0 first leg loss in Turin last Tuesday, the Bulgarian believes the Ligue 1 side can overturn the deficit in the second leg at the Stade Louis II on Wednesday evening.

“The Champions League semi-final is within our reach,” the 34-year-old told Tuttosport.

“We can do it against Juventus. We’re a good team, we’ve already shown that both against Arsenal, and a week ago in Turin.

“We absolutely did not deserve to lose and in the first half we should have had a penalty: if the referee had given it, it would have been a different game.

“But now we look forward with confidence and optimism, we’re preparing well for the comeback. We know that Juve are a team that creates a lot, but also gives opportunities.

“We know we have the ability to get to the next round.”
