Man City v Barcelona
Barcelona are not clear favourites to beat Manchester City and reach the Champions League quarter-finals,
says coach Luis Enrique. The Catalan club are aiming to reach the last eight for
a ninth straight season, while City have never gone beyond the last 16.
"I don't think there is a favourite," said Enrique, ahead of Tuesday's first leg at Etihad Stadium.
Barca beat City 4-1 on aggregate at the same stage last season.
Enrique said: "It is dangerous to speak of favourites
in the Champions League - you have to demonstrate yourself on the
field."
Midfielder
Samir Nasri admitted
City respected Barcelona "too much" last year and "were not experienced enough to compete". But captain
Vincent Kompany said
Tuesday's opponents had "nothing new to worry us".
Here is what Enrique had to say at the pre-game news conference.
