Real Madrid captain Iker Casillas is hoping for more of the same from his side as they look to follow up last night's superb Copa del Rey triumph over Barcelona with a Champions League success over Manchester United next week.

Jose Mourinho's men can cut into Barca's advantage this weekend when they face their arch rivals once again at the Bernabeu. Casillas expects Barca to be out for revenge, but has warned Tito Vilanova's men Madrid will be up for the game as well. "I know several players from Barcelona and I know they are competitive. We have to be aware that in the league, when we do not win, the fans suffer and it is our duty to fight in every match and the next one is against Barcelona," he said. "What we want to do is win and keep cutting their lead. "It is a considerable gap, but with the added bonus of our home fans we want to round off the week well."
