Captain Todor Stoykov Lukoil, one of the most experienced players in the team warned that serious yet against the Spaniards, who set a very tough opponent.

"I expect a tough fight against a serious opponent who participated last year in the Euroleague. The game is not easy and certainly we have a great battle. We can not have peace of mind because we know that to qualify we need more wins.

We can not be assured given that playing with Valencia. I can not say that Spaniards are a better team Frenchmen, but I think as the team that played in the Euroleague is a classy staff and I guess this match will be heavier than the previous.

Tiago Splitter presence of greatly changing the Valencia team. He came recently and immediately became a completely different team. That he will play tomorrow is a plus for them, if not will be playing for us. In front of our audience will go to win the confidence of a good team.

Of course we know against whom we play and hopefully succeed. I would love to have more viewers than the previous game and I told people that not every day in Bulgaria comes as such a team Valencia. I have no sentiment to this team, I played, I remember only good times "said Stoykov.
