Palermo striker Fabrizio Miccoli admits he is excited by the prospect of qualifying for the Champions League.

Miccoli has been outstanding in Rosanero's progress into fourth place so far this season.

"It's only right that we try to do it," he said. "We played a perfect game against Chievo. We had to get revenge for last Sunday's ugly showing against Catania.

"I want to get Palermo into the Champions League. It's what we all want and we have shown it against Chievo. It wasn't easy after last Sunday's defeat. It wasn't easy because we went behind. Chievo put us in great difficulty.

"Everyone's objective has to be the Champions League. It's a dream for us, for the club, for the people. We must fight until the end."
