Zidane: Real Madrid are absolutely not favourites in Champions League final

Despite his side's recent success in European competition, the Blancos boss is wary of the challenge facing his side when they take on Juventus

Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane denied suggestions his team are favourites going into in the Champions League final against Juventus.

The Liga giants booked their spot in the decider despite a 2-1 loss to Atletico Madrid on Wednesday, as they claimed a 4-2 aggregate win.

The final in Cardiff on June 3 will see Zidane face one of his former clubs in Juve, where he starred as a player from 1996-2001 before a move to Madrid.
