Barcelona sporting director Andoni Zubizarreta admits that anything can happen in their last 16 tie against Manchester City in the Champions League.
The English champions will host the Catalan giants at home in the first leg of their round of 16 tie in February next year before travelling to Barcelona a fortnight later.
The two teams faced each other in the same stage of the competition last season too and Barcelona came out on top with a 4-1 aggregate scoreline.
But Zubizarreta has insisted that both legs were tough encounters and Manchester City did pose some serious questions for Barcelona.

The former goalkeeper is expecting another high quality tie as both teams are playing a good brand of football this season.
"It is the same draw we had a year ago, it was a very difficult game and we are going to look forward to it”, the Barcelona sporting director told Eurosport.
“Manchester City have an outstanding squad with a very good coach, a very good team and are very competitive.
"We know all about them. They have been playing at a very high level and it is going to be difficult. Two great teams with incredible players and anything can happen.”
