Luis Enrique: 'Barcelona are not clear favourites against Manchester City'

Barcelona manager Luis Enrique does not believe that his side are clear favourites to beat Manchester City and reach the Champions League quarter-finals.

Barcelona manager Luis Enrique has claimed that his side are not clear favourites to beat Manchester City and reach the Champions League quarter-finals.

The Blaugrana are aiming to reach the last eight of the competition for a ninth straight season, while City have never gone beyond the last 16.

Enrique told a press conference ahead of the first-leg clash: "I don't think there is a favourite [in the tie].

"It is dangerous to speak of favourites in the Champions League - you have to demonstrate yourself on the field."

Barca beat City 4-1 on aggregate at the same stage last season.
