Juventus striker Carlos Tevez has claimed that the Bianconeri are not favourites to progress as they prepare for their Champions League semi-final against Real Madrid on Tuesday.

The first leg is in Turin, 12 years after Juve’s last Champions League semi-final appearance, and Tevez is looking forward to the occasion.

“We will not be favourites for the games against Real.” Tevez told reporters at his pre-game press conference as reported by Tuttomercatoweb.

“It will be difficult for us to progress to the final but that is our goal. I did not expect for the team to go so far in this competition. I expected us to fight in every game but not to get to the semi-finals.

“Therefore we are all really excited about playing in this match on such a great stage.

“I was told when I came to this club that they were building towards something big and that they wanted me to play an important role.

“I have found confidence in the faith that the people at this club have in me.”
