Champions League: Brazilian defender Arghus insists Maribor don't fear Chelsea
Tuesday 4 November 2014 16:20, UK
Maribor's Arghus maintains there is nothing to fear as Chelsea travel to Slovenia intent on claiming another Champions League Group G win.
The Brazilian was an unused substitute when Chelsea claimed a 6-0 win over the Slovenians at Stamford Bridge two weeks ago, but believes the club can cause an upset at Maribor's Stadion Ljudski vrt home despite the Slovenian champions entering the match after losing 1-0 at home to Domzale last Friday.
"Chelsea are a big club, probably the biggest to ever come to our stadium," Arghus said on uefa.com.
"But I trust my colleagues, we believe in ourselves and we know that we can play against any team in the world.
"Of course Chelsea are big favourites, but they will have to beat our defence first.
