Dani Carvajal has promised Real Madrid will attack Wolfsburg when the two sides meet in the Champions League quarter-final at the Volkswagen Arena on Wednesday.
Zinedine Zidane's men are on a high after coming from behind to defeat Barcelona 2-1 in El Clasico on Saturday, despite the dismissal of Sergio Ramos.
It leaves Real still seven points off the pace in the Primera Divison, but Carvajal is looking to continue their recent good run of form - which includes six consecutive wins - with an attacking performance against Wolfsburg.
The 24-year-old told Realmadrid.com: "We're going to win, not thinking about the second leg at our stadium.
"We have to go out as strong as possible for the first half hour, try to get on top of the opposition and to get a goals. We know that scoring away from home is very important so we'll go for it."
Los Blancos have been in fine form in Europe this season, conceding just three goals, and are currently unbeaten as they seek to claim an unprecedented 11th European title.
Their opponents, Wolfsburg, have already created history having reached the last eight of the competition for the first time.
After beating Manchester United to qualify from Group B, the German side went on to beat Gent 4-2 on aggregate before being drawn against Real Madrid - a game which has added meaning for midfielder Josuha Guilavogui.
"This is a derby for me," he told uefa.com. "I was part of the Atletico squad that beat Real Madrid 1-0 with a goal from Diego Costa, so why not aim to repeat that kind of performance?
"Of course we will need to defend well because they have such a strong attack with Karim Benzema, Gareth Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo, so we will need to defend really well and then play well on the counter."
Team news
Wolfsburgwill be without the likes of Sebastian Jung, Naldo, and Caligiuri for the visit of Real.
Benaglio and Bas Dost are also doubts for the game at the Volkswagen Arena.
Zidane has no such problems as Real have a fully fit squad to choose from for the match against the Bundesliga side.
