WE ARE NOT FAVOURITES- BENITEZ

Chelsea interim boss Rafael Benitez has dismissed suggestions that his side are favourites to beat Benfica in the Europa League final.


The London club will meet Jorge Jesus' men at the Amsterdam Arena on Wednesday for the showpiece fixture of Europe's second-tier competition.

And despite Chelsea going into the game having won the UEFA Champions League last term, Benitez has acknowledged that form goes out of the window in games of this nature.

"Always when you get to a final anything can happen, so as I said we know Benfica really well because they have a very good manager and good players and experience in Europe," he said.

"So we don't see anyone as favourites, we see two good teams and the best one will win in the final.
