Barcelona's Cesc Fabregas wary of Celtic crowd

Cesc Fabregas warns his Barcelona teammates to expect a "difficult" reception when they travel to Celtic in the Champions League on Tuesday night.

Barcelona midfielder Cesc Fabregas has warned his teammates to expect a "difficult" atmosphere when they travel to Celtic in the Champions League on Tuesday.

The 26-year-old featured for the Spanish champions at Parkhead last season as they were famously beaten 2-0 by the Hoops.

Despite his side being the heavy favourites to win the Group H fixture this time around, Fabregas believes that it will still be a tough match.

"I played here with Arsenal as well and it is difficult," BBC Sport quotes him as saying. "They are always behind their team. They take a corner and it feels like a goal."

Barca reached the semi-finals of last season's competition before they were hammered 7-0 on aggregate by eventual winners Bayern Munich.
