Barcelona coach Tito Vilanova admits he is concerned about how his makeshift defence will cope against Celtic on Tuesday.

Pedro was also grilled about Barca's defensive situation following Saturday's 5-4 victory at Deportivo La Coruna but the Spain forward insists Vilanova has the squad to cope. He said: "It is clear we have injuries but Tito is doing very well, adjusting players in defence and getting good performances. "It is logical that it might affect us but we have to get used to it. It is lucky for us that we have a great squad but obviously if we have a fixed defence then it is better for us. "It is a very important game for us in terms of us wanting to qualify. "Celtic will wait for us and try to get us on the break but if we win it puts us in a great situation."
