(Reuters) - Newcastle United must focus on themselves as they look to navigate a complicated run-in and seal a return to the Champions League for the first time in 20 years, manager Eddie Howe said ahead of Sunday's Premier League home game against Arsenal.
Newcastle are third in the standings with 65 points, two ahead of fourth-placed Manchester United and six in front of Liverpool, who are fifth having played one more game.
"All season we haven't focused on where we are, who's around us, the form of teams - we've just focused on ourselves and that's all we can do," Howe told reporters ahead the Arsenal match. "We're competing against elite teams who will fight to the end and we have to do the same. In our five games we need to give our best preparation and focus because the fight we're in could go right to the end of the season."
