Ludogorets coach Ante Simundza revealed what he expects from the rematch with Anderlecht.

"We have a one-goal lead. At the beginning of the first game we were good, but then we suffered. I expect a lot of pressure from Anderlecht. They will be aggressive and the stands will push them forward. We have to be warm in our hearts and cool in our heads. We have to play at a high level," began the Slovenian.

"There are always 2-3 options for the team. Most of them know they are going to play and that gives them confidence. We will do some different things. We talked to the players and we know what we will change. We have to improve. I believe the players will do it", he added.

"We have no new injuries. Everyone in the group is ready to play. The Anderlecht coach knows that the European matches are very difficult. We expect a full press from them, maybe not in the start. It is very difficult to change the way you play in just a week" , he finished.
