Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge is not taking the threat of Huddersfield lightly.

The Reds get back to Premier League action after the international break.

They will be hoping to pick up all three points given the tight nature of the top of the table. And Sturridge will be hoping to play his part in the coming game.

"I think it will be tough," the Englishman told the club's website.

"The games are always difficult off the back of international breaks: players are tired, they've travelled, the week's not as long in terms of we can't do as much tactical work as we would usually do throughout the week.

"And obviously players have gone away and done different tactics with their national teams, played in different positions and roles, so it kind of poses a little bit of a '[can we] get back to what we're used to doing?' [question].

"I hope we go there and we get a result, that's the main thing. We've just got to stay focused on that.

"We never will underestimate any team. People will say we're favourites but we're going into this game and we're both on the same playing field. It's the Premier League, so every team is strong in this league."
