Newcastle United manager Rafael Benitez has admitted that he is expecting a "fantastic" atmosphere when he takes his side to Anfield to face Liverpool.
Benitez will be returning to his former club after witnessing Newcastle pick up four points from their last two games but he has acknowledged that they now must take that form on their travels after failing to pick up a point on the road since December 13.
The Spaniard told reporters: "We are fighting and they are fighting. They have a good manager and they have good players. The atmosphere will be fantastic.
"We know about our away form and it's not the best, but the reaction of the players these last two games showed me that we can improve."
Victory for the Magpies would move them out of the relegation zone in the Premier League table.
