Bordeaux coach Laurent Blanc has downplayed his side's chances ahead of the French titleholders' Champions League last-16 first leg clash against Greek champions Olympiakos tonight.
The 44-year-old 1998 World Cup and Euro 2000 winning central defender insisted his team should "not particularly" be seen as favourites here, despite the fact they boast the best performance in the competition so far this season, dropping just two points in the group stages.
"Olympiakos are one of those sides that are used to this kind of fixture. We were happy with the draw as we feared meeting a bigger club, but Olympiakos said the same thing when they got us," the former Man U defender said.
