Montella aims to back Europa win

The Viola go into Sunday night's game at in-form AC Milan buoyed by their 1-0 triumph in Greece on Thursday.

The win, courtesy of Juan Vargas' goal, ensured Fiorentina's perfect record in the Europa League and allowed the Italians to move five points clear of nearest rivals Guingamp at the top of Group K.

"This was a precious victory," Montella said. "I have to compliment my players because this was a very difficult match.

"PAOK had not lost for a long time at home in European competition and the merit has to go to my team.

"My players handed a great performance, showing a lot of will power and determination.

"I liked the approach, as even in the final minutes when we had to suffer, we remained united.

"We need to give continuity to this performance."

Fiorentina have made a slow start to the domestic competition.

They have won just two of their opening seven league games and lost 2-0 at home to Lazio last time out.

The outcome dropped the Viola to 11th place.
