Aston Villa 0-2 Liverpool: Liverpool's revival continued to gather momentum...

Fabio Borini's close-range volley and Rickie Lambert's clinical finish from 18 yards hands Brendan Rodgers' men all three points against the struggling Villans

Liverpool's revival continued to gather momentum as they won 2-0 at Aston Villa thanks to goals in either half from Fabio Borini and Rickie Lambert.

Brendan Rodgers' side started the brighter and deservedly led at the break from Borini's close-range finish from skipper Jordan Henderson's cross in the 24th minute.

Villa then had a big escape when Raheem Sterling shot tamely straight at Brad Guzan when one-on-one.
