Udinese striker Antonio Di Natale has said that his side must treat their Europa League tie with Celtic like a final.
The Italian outfit are in second place in Group I – two points adrift of leaders Atletico Madrid – and will need at least a draw versus the Scottish club in order to progress to the next round of the competition.
"It will be an important game for us, like a final," Di Natale told reporters. "We will play to the best of our abilities to get through this round.
"We will give everything we've got as we are gambling with the sacrifices we made last season to earn our place in Europe.
"It's a difficult game and Celtic have many players with international experience. The best team will win, which hopefully is us."
Meanwhile, the Zebrette trail Italian league leaders Juventus on goal difference in Serie A.
