SOCCER

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers said his side never looked like scoring in last nights 1-0 defeat to Hull at the KC Stadium.

Michael Dawson's header in the first half the difference in the end, that win means Steve Bruce's side 4 points above the relegation zone with 4 games remaining. 

Ireland internationals Paul McShane, Robbie Brady and Stephen Quinn were all impressive for the Tigers.

Rodgers says they didn't have enough of a cutting edge:

Later tonight, Chelsea can move to within a single victory of wrapping-up the title race.

If the Blues can beat Leicester City tonight at the King Power Stadium, then they will be just one more win away from regaining the league title.

Kick-off is at 7:45pm
