Pep Guardiola, manager of Manchester City, stressed that playing before or after his rival in the Premier League did not differentiate him for him.
City will face Newcastle United Tuesday night at the 24th day of the English Premier League. Liverpool will face Leicester City on Wednesday.
"Newcastle plays similarly to Burnley, of course, each team is completely different one of the other," Guardiola said in a statement.
"In the last two seasons, the confrontation has always been difficult and I think it will happen tomorrow."
"They are very well defended, but I have the feeling that we can attack better."
"In both cases, whether we play before or after Liverpool, we have to win the matches," he said of the pre-Liverpool game on the circuit.
"If we lose a match, the league run will end in Liverpool, every game is almost a final, like the cup matches."
Manchester City is four points behind leader Liverpool after 23 rounds of the English Premier League, where the manager of the title holder believes the road is still long until the end of the season.

"All teams want to fight for the title," Guardiola said. "We feel the pressure, but we have to face it."
"I think there are still 15 matches, there are a lot of points to get, we can not think about it too much, we have to think about what we have to do," he said.
"Benjamin Mende is much better and Vincent Kompany is not available for the match," he said.
The manager of Manchester City spoke about the transfer market and the club's willingness to recruit new players, noting that he had not overseen the negotiations with the players.
"I do not participate in the negotiations with the players," Guardiola said. "The club is great and works perfectly."
"Sometimes the players go elsewhere, it happens, the reality is what has happened, sometimes things can not happen, we have enough players for the game tomorrow."
