Wenger Wary Of Barcelona Youngster Bojan

Zlatan Ibrahimovic's injury may not be giving Arsenal much of a boost ahead of their Champions League, as Arsene Wenger believes Barcelona have an able replacement for the striker.

Speaking ahead of the second leg of the quarter-final match between the sides, the Arsenal manager highlighted the unique threat Bojan can pose.

The 19-year-old is expected to replace Ibrahimovic for tonight's encounter at the Nou Camp, having been called up at the weekend and scoring twice for the Catalans.

And Wenger commented: "I think he is very mobile, tricky, short and agile and has quick feet. You would say he is completely the opposite of Ibrahimovic who is more physical."

Arsenal recovered from a two-goal deficit to salvage a draw at the Emirates, but tonight's hosts are expected by Betfred(Go to Betfred ») to progress, with the bookmaker offering odds of 4/11 that Barcelona will win and 1/7 that they will reach the semi-finals.

Wenger's side are priced 5/1 by Boyle Sports(Go to Boyle Sports ») to knock out the tournament favourites.
