Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez believes that his side can close the gap on Tottenham.

Liverpool face the easiest run-in, while Spurs have upcoming games against Man City, Man United, Arsenal and Chelsea.

“It depends on us and if we can keep winning our games,” Benitez told the official Liverpool site. “Tottenham have difficult games so I think we’ll be closer, and we’ll see. Every week will be different.

“After the Europa League we have Birmingham and that will be very tough. But if we can win our games, I think they (Spurs) will lose some points and I think we can be there.

“I hope it can still be a successful season. You can always have bad seasons, but the main thing is the reaction of the players. We will try and fight until the end, and then we’ll see.

“Hopefully we can get in the top four and progress in the Europa League.”
