Brendan Rodgers expects swift Liverpool response

Brendan Rodgers is looking to continue his Liverpool record of never losing consecutive Premier League matches when they face Norwich City on Wednesday.

Brendan Rodgers is relying on Liverpool's record of bouncing back from defeat when they face Norwich City on Wednesday night.

The Reds have never lost two consecutive Premier League matches under the guidance of Rodgers, but go into the match at Anfield off the back of a 3-1 loss at Hull City on Sunday.

"In the time I've been here we've never lost two games on the spin and that's really down to the positivity of the players and how they can bounce back and recover after a defeat," Rodgers told reporters. "It's that type of league; if you lose a game, you can drop a few places. If you win a couple of games on the spin, it will keep you up there.

"Our idea was to get through to the midway point being in and around the top positions, which we have been until now. The league has shown this year, as much as any other time at this level, that it's very unpredictable and the scoreline [at Hull] probably suggested that.

"But you can't dwell on it. You've got to refocus and reset and go again and that's what we will look to do."

You can get live coverage of Liverpool vs. Norwich from Anfield with Sports Mole from 7pm tonight.
