Madrid's "Atletico" goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois is confident ahead of Saturday's match against the "Barcelona" team.

According to the 21-year-old Belgian, he and his teammates are not afraid of the Spanish champions and are ready to challenge them seriously.

"Lionel Messi has performed excellently after returning from injury and he is among the best players on the planet.

Neymar is becoming more and more important for the "Barcelona" team, but we are not afraid of the Catalan team and will try to stop them," Courtois said.

"Perhaps "Barcelona" are the favorites, but we are also at the top of the table, we want to win and take the points," the goalkeeper spoke.

The match between the leaders of the "Primera" league in Madrid will start at 21:00 Lithuania time.
