Lyon captain Claudio Cacapa said he hopes his side can find the net when they face Milan in the Champions League quarter-final at the Giuseppe Meazza on Tuesday after the first leg ended in a goalless draw.

"If we score in Milan we'll be in a strong position," Cacapa told UEFA.com before the decisive game at the San Siro.

"In general we score at least one goal a game. We failed to do that here, but hopefully we'll make up for it in Milan."

The 29-year-old Brazilian said that compatriot Juninho, who was suspended for the first leg last week, will add to the power of Lyon against the tournament's runners-up.

"Having Juninho back will be a great help, of course. You're always going to miss a player of his quality and hopefully his return will give us something extra," he said.

Cacapa also believes that the goalless home draw doesn't affect Lyon's hopes in advancing to the semis.

"From our point of view this is a satisfactory result, even if we set out to try to win the game, one of our main aims was to keep a clean sheet and we've achieved that," Cacapa said.

"The tie is now evenly poised and I'd say our chances are still 50-50."
