"Borussia" Dortmund coach Thomas Tuchel urges his players not to relax ahead of the UEFA Europa League clash with the "Qabala" club.
BvB will travel to the Azerbaijani capital, Baku, tonight. Currently, the German team is at the top of Group C with four points - they will try to remain there after the first round of group stage matches.
"Qabala", on the other hand, has only managed to secure one point in two matches and currently sits in fourth place.
"We think that our opponents will work hard and be well-organized, which will help them to take advantage of their underdog status," Tuchel said.
"We respect both them and the game. Anything can happen in football. We know that beating 'Qabala' will be very difficult."
Tuchel also expressed disappointment that the Armenian player Henrikh Mkhitaryan did not travel with the team to Baku, as political tensions between his homeland and Azerbaijan prevented him from doing so.
