Manchester United’s in-form striker Chicharito believes defeating Chelsea over two legs will be a tough challenge but is confident his team have the advantage.

Chelsea will have to play the second leg at Old Trafford, and Hernandez thinks this gives United the upper hand.

“We play in the same league and it is going to be tough,” said Chicharito, according to Sky Sports News.

“Stamford Bridge is a nice stadium and it makes it a little bit like a league game.

“But if there is an advantage that we are at home in the second game.”

The 22-year-old Mexican has had an impressive season so far with 16 goals in all competitions, including three in the Champions League.

Asked whether the Champions League suits him he said: “It probably does.

“I am trying to think game by game and not to look too far in the future.

“But I am very happy with the way things are going in the Champions League and I want to keep it like that.”
