Celje star Milot Avdyli says he has unfinished business against Drita after they defeated him twice when he was part of Trepca, while he believes the Slovenian team will eliminate them.
Drita learned on Friday that in the 1/16 finals of the Conference League they will face Celje, a team where the former Kosovo U21 captain has been playing since the summer.
In an interview for Celje's official website, Avdyli stated that he wanted to face the Kosovar club, and now he intends to "get revenge" on them because he had suffered two losses to them when he was part of Trepça.
"I wanted to play against Drita in the league stage and my wish has now come true. The match will be special because I will face a club from my hometown. I have some unfinished business with Drita, because I played against them twice when I was a Trepça player and lost on both occasions."
"I'm sure this time it will be different. I know most of Drita's players, I've also followed their matches in Europe, they have quality but they are definitely a team that can be beaten."
In the end, Avdyli added that Celje will qualify for the next stage especially with the help of the fans.
"A good atmosphere awaits us in Pristina, but we will adapt. It is good that we play the return match in our stadium, where we have always had loud support and with the help of the fans we managed to defeat AEK Athens and Legia in the league stage, and remain undefeated overall. I believe we will qualify."
The match between Drita and Celja will take place on February 19.Telegrafi/
