Houllier expecting Leicester test

The Reds have scored six goals in two hugely impressive away wins at Everton and Blackburn Rovers but the Frenchman knows only too well that his team cannot afford to relax against a side full of confidence following a 4-0 demolition of Leeds United.

Houllier said: "It won't be easy against Leicester, I can tell you. They are a side which impresses me with their workrate and their discipline.

"Don't forget when they played Chelsea recently they were level for a long time in the game. They played a good match against Leeds on Monday. We are not going to rest on our laurels because of what's happened in the last two games. We must keep it going."
