Rafa Benitez says Huddersfield boss David Wagner has it easy compared to the pressure and expectancy of life in charge of Newcastle United.
The two promoted sides meet at the John Smith's Stadium this afternoon with the Terriers already three points better off after last weekend's 3-0 win at Crystal Palace.
Benitez's side were beaten 2-0 at home by Spurs and he has since had to deal with the fallout from Jonjo Shelvey's red card and Mike Ashley's television interview in which the owner warned that transfer funds were limited.
And the Spaniard believes Sunday's opponents will be able to thrive this season given that the focus is elsewhere.
