Benitez said: “We have a priority now to finish in the top four and to make sure we are back in the Champions League.
“Arsenal have overtaken us and Bolton are close behind, so we must not allow games to go by without us winning.
“We must not forget that two seasons ago when we won the Champions League, we lost games at the end of the season and finished fifth. We cannot allow that to happen again, we must make sure we finish in the top four.”
