The Spaniard believes his former teacher will switch the focus to continental football with the league now looking out of sight
Pep Guardiola will set Manchester City's focus on winning the Champions League with Liverpool streaking away to claim the Premier League championship, according to Xavi.
City have played one more game than leaders Liverpool and trail by a whopping 14 points on the standings - a lead that looks insurmountable due to the Reds' incredible form.
Xavi, who played under Guardiola during the tactician's tenure at Barcelona between 2008-12, believes his former coach will now go out to win Europe's premier club competition and will likely prioritise squad selection.
