"I am having a great spell," Yebda said. "I feel the confidence of the Coach and my teammates. Moreover, I also just scored a very important goal in the North African derby between Algeria and Morocco.

"We would like to make history like Maradona's team. It would be a dream.

"Milan and Inter are the favourites for victory in the Scudetto. But we are hopeful that they will draw tomorrow and that we can take points off both of them."
