The Celta coach, formerly Lucho's Barcelona assistant, is trying to get his team into Europe

Celta Vigo coach Juan Carlos Unzue wants his team to come out swinging against Barcelona on Tuesday at Balaidos. Unzue says Celta need the win if they are to keep battling to finish in seventh place and says they won't "sign up for a draw".

"We have to show up against Barca, we can't go out looking for a draw, it's an easy game to prepare for in terms of motivarion. We wouldn't sign up for a draw, we need to win, knowing how hard it is. I'm sure we'll compete and they know it won't be an easy game for them."

Unzue was formerly Luis Enrique's assistant at Barcelona and says the visitors will not be affected too heavily by the impending cup final against Sevilla.

"Barcelona are a team that are used to playing important games every three days, it will not condition them too much, it's a habit for them," he added.
