Jorge Jesus: 'There are no favourites'

Benfica boss Jorge Jesus has said that there are 'no favourites' in tonight's Europa League final against Sevilla.

Benfica boss Jorge Jesus has said that there are 'no favourites' in tonight's Europa League final against Sevilla.

Sevilla boss Unai Emery had claimed that the Portuguese outfit were the favourites for the crown in Turin, but such talk has been quelled by Jesus.

"We have been trying to take the same journey as we did last year. It gives me satisfaction to be involved when it really matters," he told reporters at a press conference.

"We have already won things and now we have a chance to win again. We are concentrated and confident that we can win. Our experience in finals has an emotional effect on you. It is not a problem but it is not an advantage either. But it has given us greater assuredness and calm this time around.

"We will be facing a strong opponent with history. It will be a hard-fought match and I don't see any favourites."

Benfica lost in the final of the Europa League to Chelsea last season.
