The Scottish FA today denied Hampden Park was in danger of losing the Champions League final because of the poor state of the pitch.
It had been suggested UEFA would switch the May showpiece if the SFA did not take drastic action.
But SFA spokesman Andy Mitchell today insisted there had been no indication from UEFA that embarrassing emergency action would be required.
Instead he said work carried out in the run-up to the final would be enough to solve the problem.
He said: "We have had no indication from UEFA that we might lose the final - absolutely not.
"There is a full programme of renewal work in place that would, if necessary, see new turf laid next April to ensure the pitch is in good condition for the Scottish Cup final and the Champions League final," he said.
