Gareth Bale believes that Real Madrid are strong contenders to win the Champions League this season.
Los Blancos have qualified for the Round of 16 with time to spare and currently top their group with 13 points from five games, seven ahead of second placed Juventus with just one more match to play.
Finishing as group winners should allow Real Madrid a somewhat easier draw in the knockout stage and Bale is confident over their chances of winning what would be a tenth European Cup.
"There are no limits to what we can achieve in the competition", he said via his club's official site.

"We have a good chance of winning the Champions League this year."
And Bale, who scored in last night's 4-1 Champions League win over Galatasaray, was pleased with his performance on a personal level.
"I am happy about the match and the goal. I've been practicing free-kicks and was lucky that this one came off. It is one of the best goals of my career."
