Brendan Rodgers calls on Liverpool to focus on performance against Everton

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers wants his charges to focus on their performance against Everton on Sunday and maintain his unbeaten record in the Merseyside derby.

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has called on his side to maintain his unbeaten record in the Merseyside derby when the Reds head to Everton on Sunday.

The 42-year-old has not yet lost in his six derbies as Reds boss, but has yet to savour victory across Stanley Park, having overseen 2-2, 3-3 and 0-0 draws.

Speaking after his side's 1-1 draw against Sion, Rodgers told reporters: "We go into the game against Everton and we will focus on our performance. The players will look forward to it. I haven't lost a derby yet and they are always good games.

"We are a point behind Everton - I know the media and written press will build the game up but we will stay calm. I am immensely enjoying the job, it is a great challenge and it is a rebuilding job again."

Liverpool sit ninth in the Premier League table, four places behind their city rivals.
