Liverpool's Henderson: We can't wait for Man Utd!

Liverpool star Jordan Henderson is eagerly anticipating his side's next Premier League fixture.

The Reds edged Swansea City 1-0 on Monday night thanks to Henderson's fortunate goal at the Liberty Stadium to extend their unbeaten run in the league to 13 matches.

Fifth-placed Liverpool are now just two points behind Manchester United, who are between them and a Champions League spot, which has the Reds vice-captain motivated for this weekend's Anfield meeting with the Red Devils.

"We can't wait," he said on Sky Sports 1 of the prospect of hosting United.

"We're high on confidence, we've got great momentum. United played well the other day and it will be a tough one but at Anfield we'll go into the game full of confidence and will hopefully get the result we need."
