"We’ll experience a fantastic atmosphere on Thursday evening. It will be the latest highlight in our club’s history and we will do everything we can to get a positive result.
“Zenit will be a lot more confident than they were last week in front an over 50,000 strong home crowd. It’s not easy to put this team under pressure. But it will come down to whoever scores the goals. We won’t sit back, we’ll be aggressive – and in an ideal world score the first goal."
