Benitez: Reds must focus on fourth

RAFAEL BENITEZ is keen for Liverpool to secure fourth place before they travel to the San Siro for the second leg of the Champions League clash with Inter Milan.

At the end of a week of turmoil and ecstasy, Liverpool face Middlesbrough at Anfield in the first of four crucial Barclays Premier League matches before the second instalment of a their last-16 clash with Inter on March 11.

And if Liverpool do beat Gareth Southgate’s side, they will reclaim fourth place from city rivals Everton — who play on Monday — on goal difference.
