The Reds have won only seven of 27 away games in all competitions this season, a dismal record for a team that were serious title contenders last season. It's a record that needs a huge improvement, starting today at Turf Moor.
"That record suggests we have not been good enough away from home and have to improve, it's true," said Benitez.
"In Madrid it was a pity because we couldn't get the away goal - but we have to be more solid and stronger. That's mentally and physically."
