Manuel Pellegrini says Manchester City will be disappointed with anything but a win when they face Sevilla in the Champions League on Tuesday night.
City can qualify for the knock-out stages with two games to spare if they are victorious and if Juventus beat Borussia Monchengladbach in the night's other game.
Pellegrini's side recovered from defeat by Juve in their opening Group D encounter to record back-to-back wins at Monchengladbach and against Sevilla at the Etihad.
"I think it's very important for the team to try to win because, depending on what happens in the other game, we could be in the next stage," Pellegrini said.
"It's a benefit to qualify as soon as you can - it's not easy to do it two games before the end. If we do it, in the same way you must qualify, you must fight to qualify in first place.
"If we have a good result, we must then try to win the group in our remaining two games. This team is not prepared to try to draw - we won't start the game thinking it's a good point.
"Of course if you can't win, a draw is better than losing but if you start thinking a draw is a good result, you'll normally lose."
Pellegrini reiterated in Seville that he is happy for fans to continue booing the Champions League anthem.
UEFA is investigating City after its supporters booed prior to last month's home clash against Sevilla, with captain Vincent Kompany describing the investigation as a 'joke'.
"It is very difficult for me to analyse why they boo and the way they do it," added Pellegrini. "But my general opinion is if they boo, UEFA are not doing something right."
