Rafael Benitez tells players to put revenge to one side ahead of Newcastle’s Premier League clash at Wolves
Newcastle manager Rafael Benitez says his players need to forget about revenge ahead of their Premier League clash at Wolves on Monday evening – a game you can listen to live on talkSPORT.The Magpies will be looking to boost their chances of Premier League survival with a result at Molineux.2

A win could put Newcastle five points clear of the drop

They lost 2-1 toNuno Espirito Santo’s men in controversial circumstances at St James’ Park on December 9 with Matt Doherty’s late header securing the points as Ayoze Perez lay prone in the opposition penalty area after being caught by Willy Boly’s flying elbow.Benitez, who had earlier seen full-back DeAndre Yedlin harshly sent off for a professional foul, was incensed on the final whistle but has insisted his team must forget that sense of injustice this weekend.He said: “We knew after the game watching the replays that everything was wrong and we didn’t deserve to lose the game, but we cannot change that.“We have to concentrate now on this one. It’s an opportunity for us because every game for us is a final, so this is the first one and we have to play all the finals with everybody concentrated and focused on that.”2

Newcastle lost to Wolves in controversial circumstances in December

The Magpies sit in 15th place in the table, two points above the relegation zone and knowing the chasing pack could have closed significantly by the time they run out at Molineux.Wolves, who emerged from the Sky Bet Championship the season after Newcastle made the same journey, have prospered in the top flight and headed into the weekend sitting seventh and with 38 points to their name.That has come as no surprise to Benitez, who has looked on enviously as Espirito Santo has been able to invest heavily in his squad, although he could hand record signing Miguel Almiron a debut after owner Mike Ashley finally loosened the purse strings last month. Benitez said: “They are doing well. They have a good manager, they have very good players.“We talk about the newly-promoted teams, but they have spent more than 100million, some of them, so it’s not the same as when you have another promoted team, for example like Huddersfield, who spent some money, but still there’s a big difference.“If you see the players that they have, they have champions of Europe, they have players who play at international level.“They are a good team doing really well.”
