Luis Fabiano: Kaka Must Be Worried About Sevilla

O Fabuloso says he knows his side can beat Real.

2009 FIFA Confederations Cup:Luis Fabiano and Kaka, USA - Brazil (PA)
Sevilla striker Luis Fabiano has raised the heat ahead of Sunday's Primera Liga showdown against Real Madrid by suggesting fellow Brazilian Kaka is "worried" about the game.

"We are friends since our Sao Paolo days and we maintain this on trips with Brazil but he hasn't sent me an SMS about Sevilla-Madrid, he must be worried," Fabiano is quoted as saying by AS.

The Andalusians have matched Real Madrid in recent years claiming a victory in each of the last four seasons, while losing the the other game each year in what are generally high-scoring games and Fabiano says Madrid have reason to be fearful going into the game.

"We are in great form at the moment and the team is high on confidence. We have a great record against Madrid since the time of Ronaldo, [Zinedine] Zidane and [David] Beckham.

"It is always a difficult game but at home we are strong and I know we can beat Real Madrid."
