Wigan's Gomez gunning for Liverpool

Wigan Athletic savior Jordi Gomez is looking to record a positive result when Liverpool come to town on Wednesday.

The Latics picked up a deserved 1-1 draw with Chelsea on Saturday thanks to Gomez's fourth goal in five games and the Spaniard is now hoping to make life difficult for the Reds at DW Stadium midweek.

"In the last three or four games, the team has played very well and with confidence, and that allows all the players to show their best form which brings about the results we've been having," he told the Wigan Evening Post.

"This result means we go into Wednesday's game against Liverpool with belief, and we don't care who the opposition is when we play like we know we can.

"No-one can deny we deserved at least a point against Chelsea, and the challenge now is to pick up at least the same result on Wednesday night.

"Yes, it is a hard run over Christmas, but you just have to take it game by game and try to do your best in each game.

"We are not thinking about the games we are playing next week or next month - all we are focused on now is Liverpool and we will be trying our best to get another good result."
