Luis Enrique belives Apoel Nicosia will be frustrating for Barça to break
Barcelona boss Luis Enrique expects Apoel Nicosia to be frustrating opponents for Barcelona on Tuesday night when the two sides meet in the Champions League.
The Catalan giants won the first game 1-0 at the Camp Nou, thanks to a header from Gerard Pique.
Enrique said: "We expect a similar game to that which was played in the opening round of matches.
"I expect them to behave defensively as they did before, giving away very little space which always creates problems.
"One of their strengths is that they concede so few goals. They are very good in defence and that will make things very difficult to get a clear shot on goal."
Barcelona are vying with Paris Saint Germain for the top spot in the group, with both teams already qualified.
The French side are one point ahead of Barcelona and face Ajax at the same time as Barcelona play.
Enrique said he was not concerned by the result: "We need the points to finish first, that is our priority. APOEL are the obstacle we have to overcome and only then will we look at what happens in the other match."
