UEFA Champions League: Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone insisted that his side are not the favourites to reach the semifinals of the UEFA Champions League against Borussia Dortmund.

Atletico entertain the German side in the quarterfinal first leg in their Metropolitano Stadium on Wednesday night, and the coach used his press conference to try and take some pressure away from his players, reports Xinhua.

"The most difficult rival is Dortmund, not us," said Simeone. "They have a lot of good things and have done really well in the last four months, and have a very good counterattack," he added, also highlighting the German outfit's strength in the air and intensity.
