Cracovia head coach Jacek Zieliński and midfielder Mateusz Cetnarski spoke to the press ahead of Cracovias first leg against KF Shkëndija 79 Tetowo.

Jacek Zieliński:

Apart from Bartek Kapustka, who will obviously not make it to Skopje, and injured Paweł Jaroszyński, everyone else is ready to play on Thursday. Paweł Jaroszyński will do without a surgery, he should be well in three months time. We have two possibilities of how to replace him in the game against Shkëndija. We analyzed our rival. Shkëndija are a good team that deserve recognition. They have a couple great, technical players. We are well-aware of the fact that it is not going to be easy to play against them but we are very determined to win. When it comes to European competitions Shkëndija are more experienced while for us it is the first time. The players have been training individually since 1 June, so we are better prepared for the new season than we were last year.

Mateusz Cetnarski:

I am very happy to get another chance to play in the Europa League qualifying, I also had such an opportunity at Śląsk Wrocław. Every one of us who will go to Skopje must feel responsible for the final outcome of the game. Those are not league games where you can fix things a few weeks later. It is everybodys dream to play in the Europa League and so we are all very excited.
