Pep Guardiola: 'I don't want to face AC Milan'

Barcelona boss Pep Guardiola has said that Italian giants AC Milan are the club that he would least like to face in the next round of the Champions League.

The Spaniard, who admits that no tie can be taken for granted following his team's historic 10-2 aggregate win over Leverkusen in the last 16, admits that he would still like to avoid the Serie A leaders.

"The Champions League is a demanding competition," he said.

"Manchester City and Manchester United are out, anyone can beat anyone on a good day, you must take everyone seriously.

"We know there are two stages left before reaching the final. Benfica are a historic club, and Milan are the team I want to face the least."

Meanwhile, Barcelona travel to Racing Santander in La Liga this weekend.
