"We feel like we can beat anyone every time when we go out on the pitch. We are not going out on the pitch to think that we are not going to beat them," goal.com quoted Dijk as saying.
"It's going to be a tough game for both of them on Wednesday (Ajax FC and Tottenham Hotspurs) and we'll just see who is going to come to Madrid and we prepare," he added.
