Carlos Tevez insists Boca Juniors are not underestimating Independiente del Valle as the two teams prepare to lock horns in the Copa Libertadores semi-finals.
Independiente welcome Boca to the Estadio Olimpico Atahualpa for Thursday's opening leg in Quito, with the Ecuadorians outsiders to progress.
While Boca boast six Libertadores titles, one shy of the record, Independiente have no history in South America's premier club competition, having languished in Ecuador's third division a decade ago.
"We should not underestimate anybody, they are a quality team," said Tevez, who is Boca's leading scorer in the campaign with five goals.
"There will be pressure, but it is the same with everyone, after all, this is a Libertadores semi-final.
"The game will be more than important. Let's look for a good result to bring home."
Boasting internationals such as Nicolas Lodeiro and Frank Fabra, Guillermo Barros Schelotto's Boca advanced to the knockout round as group winners, undefeated from six games, before going on to beat Cerro Porteno and Nacional to reach the semis.
Independiente, meanwhile, have continually punched above their weight in this year's competition.
"There are many disadvantages of budget, additions, but in all instances we play against these things. It happened with River and with Pumas too," said Repetto.
"With positive mindset we can achieve the result."
