Wins are all that matter for Benitez

Rafa Benitez insists he is not thinking of a potential Premier League title challenge for his Chelsea side but is concentrating only on securing three points against Southampton.

The Blues will move to within four points of second-placed Manchester City if they can beat Nigel Adkins' side at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea are 1/4 with bet365 to win the match while Saints are 10/1 to keep a clean sheet against last season's Champions League winners. Benitez said: "I don't like to see the table every weekend. It's important for us to keep winning games and, if we can do that by playing well and scoring a lot of goals, that will be good for us. "We need to get three points in every game and see where we are in a few weeks." Chelsea have performed better away from Stamford Bridge than at home in recent weeks and have failed to register a goal in their last two home games, in the league against QPR and in the Capital One Cup defeat to Swansea City.
