Rubin Kazan defender Cesar Navas has looked ahead to Tuesday night's clash against Barcelona, and knows that the Russian champions will be up against it in the Camp Nou.
"It will be a very difficult game, but also an unforgettable experience," the former Racing Santander defender told AS.
"Barcelona are the best team and play the best football in Europe.
"They are a team who have kept the same philosophy for many years, which is keeping the ball and attacking football, and that is coupled with having a great coach and an excellent squad.
"The Santiago Bernabeu is more imposing, but the Camp Nou becomes bigger as the minutes go by. Barcelona always have the ball, so you spend the entire game chasing the ball. You are exhausted in the last few minutes."
Navas will come up against Zlatan Ibrahimovic for the first time in his career tomorrow evening, and believes that he poses more of a threat than Samuel Eto'o.
"Eto'o is a wonderful goalscorer, but Ibrahimovic is more complete. He doesn't score as many goals, but he has more quality. He is a very difficult player to mark."
