Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur take on each other at Anfield as both sides look to climb further up the Premier League table.
After a poor start to the campaign, the Reds seem to have finally found some stability in the Premier League, picking up 14 points from their last six fixtures.
The Merseysiders are still far from securing a Champions League spot as they are currently in seventh place with 39 points, but a victory would certainly boost their morale ahead of some tough Premier League fixtures against Southampton and Manchester City.
Although Liverpool have managed to beat the Spurs 5-0, 4-0 and 3-0 in the two sides' last three Premier League meetings, Liverpool boss Rodgers does not feel his side will not have a psychological advantage.
"Every game is different," Rodgers told the club's official's website. "Last season we went away and won at Tottenham [5-0], even though we arrived at White Hart Lane without a good record there."
"We've now gone there again this season and been very convincing in our victory. It's been the same at home, but we know in the context, it will be a very tough game."
Nevertheless, the Northern Irishman says that his side will be looking to win this game so that they will not be under "pressure" in the remaining Premier League fixtures.
"We'll look to win it as it will just put us a point behind them and also keeps up the momentum. If we don't win the game, it just puts pressure on the other fixtures we'll have in the rest of the run," added the 42-year-old.
Rodgers expects this game to be very competitive due to both Liverpool and Tottenham being in good form of late.
"It will be a great game with two teams in good form. They come back off a good result [winning the North London derby], and for us, the way we've been working has been a real highlight."
"We played very well against them earlier on in this season and their philosophy is still the same; they want to press the game and dominate the ball, and for us it's similar so it will be a very fascinating game."
Meanwhile, Tottenham will be hoping to record their fourth straight Premier League when they travel to Anfield on Tuesday.
Despite initially struggling at White Hart Lane, manager Mauricio Pochettino seems to have started working his magic again as the Spurs have risen to fifth position in the Premier League following some impressive victories against Chelsea (5-3) and Arsenal (2-1).
A victory against Liverpool would take them temporarily to third place in the Premier League above Manchester United and Southampton, who are scheduled to play against Burnley and West Ham United on Wednesday.
However, the Spurs' clash against the Reds will certainly not be a walk in the park owing to the fact that they have only managed to record a single victory in their last 20 Premier League trips to Anfield.
Despite admitting that the game will be a "tough one", Mauricio Pochettino insists that the Spurs are "ready and focused."
"It will be a special game, but a tough one. We need to be ready because it will be another three important points. It's a short time between the two games, but we are ready and focused. Liverpool is in a very good moment, they have very good players but I think we'll be ready to compete in what will be a very tough game."
Expected starting lineups:
Liverpool: Mignolet; Can, Skrtel, Sakho; Lallana, Henderson, Gerrard, Moreno, Sterling, Coutinho; Sturridge
Tottenham: Lloris; Walker, Fazio, Vertonghen, Rose; Bentaleb, Mason; Eriksen, Dembele, Lamela; Kane
