In response to the Champions League second qualifying draw against Hibernians of Malta, coach Slavisa Jokanovic told the official website: "Every draw is tricky one and whether it is a good draw or a tough draw we will know only after the two matches are played. We will study Hibernians closely to ensure we are prepared to the best of our ability for the first leg in Malta. As far as travel is concerned, Malta will probably be an easier destination than one of the other potential opponents we could have drawn".
Sports Director Jordi Cruyff added: “We respect all our opponents and will try to be well prepared. On a personal note, will be very happy to return to Malta which is an island I know well where people are friendly and I have good memories from.
