Celje's Zlatorog waiting for Barcelona

Losing by eleven goals was something that nobody expected in Slovenia. However, this happened to Celje in Barcelona. Now everything and everybody is prepared for a revenge.

Celje will need to improve a lot at homeCeljeā€™s Zlatorog hall will be completely full for the first time this season. It was sold out already on Wednesday. It means that 5,500 spectators will create an extremely hot atmosphere.

The two teams have on nine occasions in the Champions League. Barcelona won only once in Celje, that happened back in 1997.

This season Barcelona showed a superb form in Palau Blaugrana and the Slovenians did not have any chance. They say it will be different this time:

"We know that we played our worst match of the season. It cannot happen again," said goalkeeper Aljosa Rezar. He added:

"Our fantastic fans will give us additional strength. I think we can pay Barcelona back, but not with such a big difference."

Renato Sulic will be back in the team after an injury that he picked up at the European Championship. The question is whether Mirsad Terzic could play after the injury he suffered at the match against Prevent in Slovenia this week.
