Victor Olatunji has opened up on playing against Bayer Leverkusen, one of the top teams in Europe, when Sparta Prague faces the German side in the UEFA Champions League.

Sparta Prague will face the German side in their last fixture in the UCL and will look to bow out with a win.

The Czech side are currently 29th in the table, having just four points, with no chance of qualifying for the playoff.

Despite their poor performance in the UCL, Olatunji has scored four goals in their first 13 rounds of games.

He said, “The game will not be easy. They are coming as an opponent, and we're also coming as an opponent to play, we are playing on their own pitch, which they are very good at.

“So it will not be very easy for us, for both teams. But we will try our best to do what, you know, we have on our feet and also what we have upstairs; we fight and we just make it hard for them to win.”
