Rafa Benitez has called on his Liverpool side to buck their ideas up and prove they can beat West Ham at Anfield on Wednesday evening.
"It's been really frustrating waiting for this game in hand," said Benitez. "You are always expecting it to come either next week or the week after, but then they said it was going to be in March! Now it has come and we'll be really pleased if we end the game with a win.
"It's a really important game for us, one of our most important of the season. That fourth spot is always important and if we win this game we are there, and everything will depend on us.
"I have confidence we can stay focused on finishing fourth. It's not easy when you play in the Champions League but we have some experience.
"We know we have to concentrate and be focused on every game, and see if we can progress in both competitions.
"It seems like it could be between Liverpool and Everton for fourth place, but Aston Villa also have a lot of confidence and Blackburn won the other day away from home.
"You never know, but maybe you can say that Liverpool, Everton and Aston Villa will be close.
"The derby later this month could be really important, but it depends on the other games before then. We'll have to wait and see the position both teams are in before the game but clearly it will be an important game."
