AC Milan coach Vincenzo Montella wants a show of "ferocity" today against Palermo.

Milan are flying high after recent results.

“The team is working hard, there is the desire to improve and results are starting to arrive, but we must not rest on our laurels. We must try to aim higher," Montella told Milan TV.

“Palermo represent a difficult game, as we are facing a side in desperate need of points and a passionate atmosphere for football. It's very tough in my view and we will not be underestimating Palermo.

“The Sicilians have a clear idea of their football and the Coach Roberto De Zerbi intrigues me. Alessandro Diamanti is someone I've worked with, he's very smart and experienced, so we must be extremely concentrated.

“We need sporting ferocity in every game, to play our football and do it well.

“My squad is gaining the confidence to play a certain type of football and the automatic movements that come with that."
