France boss Didier Deschamps refuses to accept that his side are the favourites to beat Portugal in Sunday night's Euro 2016 final.

France boss Didier Deschamps has denied that his team will be the favourites for Sunday night's Euro 2016 final against Portugal.

The Blues booked their spot in the final of the competition with a 2-0 win over Germany on Thursday, while Portugal were victorious by the same scoreline against Wales on Wednesday.

Hosts France are seen as the favourites to lift the trophy on home soil, but Deschamps has branded the final a 50/50 tie.

"We have a chance and Portugal have a chance, just because we are the host nation and beat Germany, it doesn't give us additional powers. Portugal believe in themselves, we believe in ourselves," Deschamps told reporters.

France have beaten Republic of Ireland, Iceland and Germany in the knockout rounds of Euro 2016.
