Girona coach Michel insists Champions League must be played at Montilivi

Girona coach Michel insists their Champions League home games must be played at the Montilivi stadium.

There s talk of switching the games to a bigger ground.

But Michel says: "I have already said it, 100% I want to play in Montilivi. I am convinced that the club does too, I think we will play in our stadium.

"The fans are all clear about it. The first game in the club's history, which will be in the Champions League.

"It will be in Montilivi, I don't contemplate anything else since playing away is weakening the sporting aspect. This year we have only lost against Madrid at home and we have special confidence in Montilivi."

He added on battling Barcelona for second place: "Winning the four games is the objective but first we have to win tomorrow. Game by game, but right now we are ahead and winning everything is the objective to achieve another dream."
