Barcelona boss Ernesto Valverde has insisted that he is not worried about the form of Luis Suarez in the Champions League.
Suarez has registered 15 La Liga goals during the 2018-19 campaign but is yet to find the back of the net in the Champions League this term.
The 32-year-old has actually only managed one goal in his last 17 matches in the competition and drew another blank in Tuesday's goalless draw with Lyon in the first leg of their last-16 tie.
Valverde, however, has insisted that Suarez will soon hit the goal trail for the Spanish champions.
"It doesn't worry me," ESPN quotes Valverde as saying. "It would worry me if he wasn't getting chances, which is what you ask for from a centre-forward and [even] if he doesn't have chances, he creates them for his teammates.
"Opponents are frightened of him. He [must] be reserving himself, football is a game of margins. Strikers have runs [of goals] and the best thing is he's getting chances."
Suarez has scored 168 goals in 231 appearances for Barcelona since a 2014 switch from Liverpool.
