Partizan Gordan Petric on upcoming game:

-We watched three Nice matches, including the last league one Nice won 1-0 away. I was quite impressed with their second half display against Koln, they have players with great skill and pace. Nice results are not great at the moment but they can pick up in no time. Their style is kind of slow and all of a sudden they pick up a gear. All said, it`s going to be extremely tough encounter for us and we have to match their playing style as much as to implement our game tomorrow.

I hope boys had enough rest and we`ll see today if they are all fit, healthy and in contention to play.

Partizan winger Fouseni Diabate on tomorrow`s match:

-Boss had a good look at Nice and they are used to these kind of games. The cards are dealt and in our hands. It`s on us to start the game well and show character all the way through. We need good support from our fans to get a best possible result at home.
