Rafael Benitez urges Newcastle United players to give everything against Swansea

Rafael Benitez tells his Newcastle players not to leave the pitch with any regrets as they attempt to kickstart their Premier League survival bid against Swansea.

Newcastle United head coach Rafael Benitez has told his players to ensure that they have no regrets when the final whistle blows against Swansea City on Saturday afternoon.

Relegation is looming large for the Magpies, who are six points from safety with only six games of the season remaining.

Four of those matches come at home and Benitez wants his team to "give everything" in the remaining weeks of the campaign, starting on Saturday against Swansea.

"You feel the pressure fighting for titles or trying to avoid relegation, you feel the pressure for sure," Benitez told reporters. "What you have to do is what we're trying to do.

"We're trying to be clean with our instructions, to train well. And after in football sometimes you need a little bit of luck as well. If we score the first goal, maybe we'll see the quality of these players during the whole game.

"The only thing that I'm asking the players is that they have to give everything and finish the game without regret that they left everything there. I think everybody expects that. The fans will be behind them if they do that."

Newcastle's two main rivals trying to beat the drop are Norwich City and Sunderland, who play each other this weekend at Carrow Road.
