If you asked me if I would like to repeat the same performance that we had at Craven Cottage when we played against them in the Carabao Cup, I would love it because we played really well that game.

We controlled them well, against a brave side and a top quality side. We were really brave as well to play in the way we wanted and to make life really difficult for them. And, of course, it's going to be the same approach tomorrow, knowing that they are a really difficult side to play.

Any time that you make a mistake, they can punish you with the threat that they have in the attack line, always with (James) Maddison, (Yves) Bissouma and (Pape) Sarr, or (Rodrigo) Bentancur, ready to provide for the attacking players.

Different setup from the two full-backs, but full-backs that can really make a difference in the attacking line as well. And because of that they can create all these problems for the opposition sides.

It's up to us to have a good and very strong approach. On the ball, I know that we are going to create problems for them."
