LIVERPOOL, England (Reuters) - 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 Juergen Klopp said on Friday.

Netherlands captain Van Dijk was taken off at halftime in the 3-1 Premier League defeat by Brentford at the start of January. He returned to Liverpool's bench for their 2-0 win over local rivals Everton on Monday.
