Wigan will look for all three points when they host a Liverpool side with little to play for in their English Premier League game Saturday.
Liverpool are pretty much out of the running for a Champions League place, while they have also been knocked out of all the cup competitions.
"We've got 11 games to go and our only focus is on ourselves -- we just look at the next game," Rodgers said. "We've been brilliant at times and at other times we've been inconsistent.
"We played very well against Wigan at home; we know it will be a tough game, I watched them last week against Reading and they did very well. That's as far as we're looking.
"Hopefully we can finish the season strong and keep up the performance level and determination that we've shown in the last number of weeks. It gives us a great platform for next season.
"With the form that we've shown, with the Swansea game and in particular the Zenit game - we were knocked out of the Europa League but the performance level against a very good side was fantastic - we just want to keep that going.
"I've signed a deal here and hope to see that through. In that period of time I believe, along with the board, we can make really good progress here. Nothing has changed my mind on that - I'm ever so happy I made that decision to come."
Wigan, on the other hand, have another relegation battle on their hands, and lie one spot above the relegation zone.
Roberto Martinez knows he will not have it easy against Liverpool. "Liverpool have shown how good a side they are in the last few weeks, with some eye-catching results," Martinez said. "We need to be prepared to face a group of players who, as individuals, are extremely talented and full of experience.
"We're going to see the best of them this weekend, but we can't afford to concentrate too much on the opposition in attempting to achieve our aim, and we've shown that focus recently. It's time for us to push one another and compete with one another to hit the levels which will help us to get positive results."
