Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart has urged his side not to lose focus in the second leg of their Europa League tie against FC Porto on Wednesday evening.
The Citizens hold a 2-1 advantage from the first leg in Portugal, but England international Hart is wary of thinking that it is already job done going into the Etihad Stadium return.
City are1.61 to win the game,3.75 to secure a draw and1.04 to progress to the last 16 of the competition.
Hart told his club's official website: "After working so hard to win in Portugal, we can't afford to waste it in the home leg.
"We need to play like we did over there and not think about just trying for a draw or a 1-0 win. If we play our normal game, I think we'll be okay."
Meanwhile, Hart, whose side are3.75 to win the Europa League this season, insists that the Citizens are taking the competition seriously, despite having dropped out of the Champions League earlier on in the campaign.
"People can say what they want about the Europa League, but there are a lot of top quality sides in the competition," Hart added.
"Sporting Lisbon, Ajax, Porto, Valencia and Manchester United - some of the biggest names in world football - are all in this to win it. It's a great competition and make no mistake, one we want to win."
