Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge says the club have ‘nine cup finals’ between now and the end of the English Premier League season.

A 3-2 victory over top-four rivals Tottenham last time out was the club’s third win on the trot, and they head into Saturday’s trip to face Southampton hoping to record a fourth successive triumph for the first time in over two years.

And Sturridge, who has struggled with hamstring injuries since his January move from Chelsea, is keen to step up his rehabilitation and continue his fine scoring return for his new club.

“We’ve got nine games left and it’s nine cup finals in my opinion. I’m hoping to remain fit and God willing I can for those nine games,” the 23-year-old told the club’s website.

“My fitness is fine. When I came back for the Tottenham game I trained for a couple of days prior to that. I didn’t feel as sharp as I could have.

“I’m not making excuses for not performing as well as I’d have liked to have done. I’m glad the team won and I was happy to help the team.”
