RB Leipzig boss Marco Rose says their biggest challenge will be to keep Manchester City striker Erling Haaland quiet in their Champions League round 16 clash.
RBL host the first-leg on Wednesday night.
Rose previously worked with Haaland at Borussia Dortmund.
"If he sees the goal he is crazy about scoring," said Rose. "He is always there for the team, working for the team.
"He has improved his game a lot, his technical side, his movement and things around. Now he is playing for one of the best teams in the world and he is a world-class player.
"But I have great confidence in my team. We want to compete against one of the best teams in the world, see and look for opportunities."
RB Leipzig's Christopher Nkunku is doubtful for the game. The France forward has scored 17 goals in all competitions this season but only recently returned from an ankle injury sustained in November.
He played and got an assist in the win over Wolfsburg on Saturday but is being eased back to full fitness.
"Christo could only complete part of the training today because there was some reaction [from his injury]," Rose added.
"We will certainly not start with him [on Wednesday].
"We will have to see if he can be with us at all, but we won't be taking any risks. We have a lot more matches this season."
