Rayo Vallecano has endured poor recent form but Pablo Hernandez is adamant his side can upset Atletico Madrid in the Copa del Rey.
Pablo Hernandez is determined to make a battle of Rayo Vallecano's Copa del Rey second leg with Atletico Madrid despite a dismal run of results.
Paco Jemez's side was beaten 2-1 by relegation rival Levante last weekend to leave the club firmly stuck in a battle to escape the bottom three and is now without a win since the home Copa clash with Getafe on Dec. 2.
Atletico sealed a 1-1 draw in the first leg of this last-16 tie to give the Liga leader a slight advantage heading into the return at the Vicente Calderon on Thursday, but Hernandez - who scored in that Levante loss - insists his side can make life uncomfortable for Diego Simeone's men.
