Newcastle coach, Rafa Benitez believes Manchester City can not give as much attention on the marked confrontation on Tuesday (19), the Premier League. The Spanish coach has this opinion based on the fact that the Citizens are already focused on the match against Real Madrid, the semifinal of the Champions League.
"Right behind you, you're thinking about a semifinal or final, and if you will get injured," Benitez said. "They are professionals and will try to win but deep down they will not want to miss a game because of injury. I think they are with the eye in the Champions League and hopefully we can take advantage. "
As Manuel Pellegrini, City manager Benítez is a former coach of Real Madrid. The first game of the semifinal of the Champions League is scheduled for the 26th, Tuesday, in England. This is the first time the blue team of Manchester goes far enough in the main European club competition.
