AC Milan GM Adriano Galliani is reluctant to talk up a title tilt.
But he admits they'd like to return to the Champions League.
“I don't like to make predictions," Galliani told Radio Sportiva.
“I analyse what's happened, but I don't make predictions for the future. We alternate between great games and less great games, I don't know.
“We hope to gain consistency, if we didn't have quality then we couldn't play great games, but one thing I hate is drawing up tables of what will happen. No-one hits the targets.
“We play tonight [in the Coppa Italia], then on Sunday night and so on. For superstitious reasons I'll say Milan played well against Lazio and Sampdoria, less well against Juventus.
“Let's see what happens, but what's certain is we had a very good game against Sampdoria.
“I hope Milan will get back into the Champions League, where we were for many years. What I miss is being in the Champions League as a matter of course."
