Valencia star David Silva has targeted a win and a clean sheet when his side take on Werder Bremen in the Europa League at the Mestalla on Thursday night.
He also noted that the last two Primera Liga games which saw them play with ten and even nine men have taken their toll on the team and stated that if they can keep 11 men on the pitch they are a match for any team.
"We need to win and not concede a goal. If we score and keep a clean sheet it will be a good result for us. We have our own style and do not focus too much on our opponent, we concentrate on ourselves," he told a press conference.
"The team is fine, but playing with ten is a huge sacrifice for both games which has an effect throughout the week. The team is strong and with eleven against eleven I think we can be at our best. In addition, the team has many injuries and it shows, hopefully we will recover and be at the same level as before."
