Two clubs in opposite ends of the Premier League table will do battle today in a league match between Norwich City and Liverpool. The first-division clash scheduled for 7 a.m. ET will be held at Carrow Road in Norwich and can be live streamed here free.
With Chelsea falling to Sunderland on Saturday, Liverpool now have the chance to go five points clear of their closest competition. If the Reds hope to continue their ascendancy over English football, they'll need the help of Luis Suarez. The Uruguayan has 11 goals in his last four matches against Norwich and manager Brendan Rodgers expects more of the same from his leading striker on Sunday (h/t to the Daily Mail). "I saw his three goals that he scored at Carrow Road before I came in and then obviously he's had four and three during my time here against Norwich," Rodgers said.
"But I take most solace from what we do as a team. Luis plays that role really well. He's scored a big part of his goals up there on his own," he added.
"He enjoys that role, the freedom and the space that it offers, and thankfully we've got other players that can score goals in the team. He's been fantastic and he will continue to be."
