Cristiano Ronaldo believes that Manchester United will overcome Porto in the Champions League quarter-final second leg as they bid to retain Europe's top competition.

The Dragoes appear to be in the driving seat, on paper at least, having earned two away goals in their draw at Old Trafford in the first leg and they now have home advantage.

Furthermore, 12 British clubs have travelled to the Estadio do Dragao in European competition and not one has come away with a win.

However, the 24-year-old winger is confident that the Red Devils will make it 13th time lucky. He is certain nothing will stand in his way of attaining the quintuple.

"We will win because Manchester United are the better team. I feel good and I'm ready," Ronaldo is quoted as saying by Fox Sports.

"I think we have a better team than Porto but we have to respect them. I want to finish the season by winning the Premier League, FA Cup and the Champions League. My team-mates are thinking like me."
