Liverpool handed huge double boost as injured pair set to return for game against Norwich
Jordan Henderson has not played since suffering an injury against Bournemouth last month
LIVERPOOL manager Brendan Rodgers has confirmed Jordan Henderson and Daniel Sturridge are back in contention for Sunday's visit of Norwich.
 
Sturridge has not played since April 8 because of a hip problem that required surgery in the United States, but returned to first-team training earlier this month.
The 26-year-old made just 18 appearances in an injury-plagued last season but is now available to face Alex Neil's men at Anfield.
 
Brendan Rodgers' side have scored just four goals in six matches in all competitions this campaign and the striker's return will be a timely one.
Rodgers believes the England international can kick-start their campaign but will probably start on the bench on Sunday.
 
Elsewhere, the club have received another boost as Jordan Henderson could also return to action.
The captain has been out since coming off against Bournemouth last month and went to seek advice from New Jersey-based specialist Dr John Cozzarelli in a bid to speed up his recovery from a heel problem.
Rodgers previously said there had been no improvement but he is set to have a late fitness test and could now play some part.
