The Swedish champions have conceded just 22 goals all season and have scored more than 50 goals in their domestic league.
Graeme Shinnie believes they are capable of doing an inside job in their own Fort Knox and blowing the doors open to the money-spinning group stages of the Europa League.
The captain said: "I always think European football is different to what they are maybe used to in their own league. We went to Rijeka and they had a long unbeaten record too and we managed to win 3-0 there so I think these competitions are a lot different and we are something different than what they will play in their own league.
He claimed: "Not really. We know the history of the city, but this is a completely different scenario. They were winning it so I think it's a different era. We want to put our own little piece of history and try to get through the group stages of the Europa League which would be massive for us. That's an objective we are keen to complete."
