Liverpool's Van Dijk fit to start against Newcastle - Klopp
LIVERPOOL: Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk could start in Saturday's Premier League game at Newcastle United after recovering from a hamstring injury that had sidelined him for over a month, coach Jurgen Klopp said on Friday.
When asked if Van Dijk is available to start against Newcastle, Klopp told reporters,"I think so. Yesterday he looked absolutely ready, and today I think he will look the same.Liverpool are languishing in ninth place in the standings on 32 points after a season blighted by poor form and injuries. Klopp heaped praise on counterpart Eddie Howe for the"exceptional" turnaround he has overseen at St James' Park.
"It will never be easy, but we have to try. It'll be tough; Newcastle are the best defence in the league, lost just once to us, we needed a late goal. They are very consistent and that is the first step to success.
