Atletico Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois hopes that the Spanish outfit can overcome Barcelona in the Spanish Super Cup this month.

Atletico Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois has admitted that he is desperate to overcome Barcelona in the Spanish Super Cup this month.

The Belgian, who is on loan at Atletico from Chelsea, is expected to start in the first leg at the Vicente Calderon on Wednesday evening.

"I would like to win against Barcelona as it is something I have not yet done. For a two-legged game we know it is going to be difficult," Courtois told Football Espana.

"In other countries, or even with the European Super Cup, the trophy is determined at only one game. But here there are two. Which makes it more complicated. But we will go for Barcelona and for the title."

Courtois is currently in his third loan spell with the Copa del Rey champions.
