Slovenia manager Matjaz Kek has said that his side has no fear for European giants Portugal.<\/p>\n

Both sides will clash in the round of sixteen of the ongoing Euro 2024 in Germany and the manager insisted that they are well-prepared to face the Cristiano Ronaldo-led side.<\/p>\n

Addressing the press ahead of the game, he admitted that Slovenia, not the favourites in the match, are relishing the challenge.<\/p>\n

Kek said (via French outlet RFI): \u201cWhen you look at their squad list, you get a headache, they can rotate and change however much they want.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut our approach does not change because of that. I see Portugal as one of the favourites to win the tournament, but Slovenia has not been the favourite in all three group matches, and we\u2019re not the favourites tomorrow.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re not afraid of them; we\u2019re really glad to be able to play against such teams. It will be a tough match, but we\u2019re really happy to be able to play it.\u201d<\/p>\n
