Rafael Benitez has sounded a note of warning to former club Liverpool not to expect any favours when they visit Newcastle United in the Premier League.
With the title race going down to the wire, Jurgen Klopp’s second-placed team face Newcastle on Saturday looking to return to the top of the table.
But Benitez, who led Liverpool to Champions League and FA Cup triumphs during six years at the helm, said his side had no plans to help his former club.
Newcastle are currently 13th on the table and have secured their Premier League status for next season.
Liverpool are a point adrift of leaders Manchester City, who host Leicester City in their next game on Monday.
