Manager Ronny Deila has played down the significance of Qarabag's pitch ahead of Celtic's Champions League qualifier in Azerbaijan tonight.
The Bhoys bring a 1-0 first-leg advantage into the conclusion of their third-round qualifier, but questions have been raised over the condition of the surface.
Intense heat in Baku has singed some areas of the field, but Deila says that the Scottish Premiership champions have enough experience on less-than-adequate pitches.
"It is not a perfect pitch, of course," he is quoted as saying by Sky Sports News.
"But it is a pitch and we are used to playing in those types of pitches in Scotland in the winter so we have to make the best of the situation."
Deila's troops beat Stjarnan 4-1 in Iceland last month on a surface with artificial turf.
