Club Brugge full-back Meunier believes that Beşiktaş are not stronger than his side going into the Europa League Last 16.

“I think it’s a fine draw. Personally, I don’t think Beşiktaş is any stronger than we are,” Meunier was quoted as saying on FourFourTwo.

The 28-year-old believes that Club Brugge should be able to beat Beşiktaş because Anderlecht beat Galatasaray in the Champions League.

“Anderlecht showed they were stronger than Galatasaray [by beating them in the Champions League]. We should also be able to beat [Beşiktaş],” he added.
