Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has said that defender Virgil Van Dijk is fit and can play through the pain of his rib injury.
Reports broke earlier this week that Van Dijk has been playing with injections due to an ongoing rib injury, which has been causing him recent discomfort.

Van Dijk did not play for Holland in their second game of the international break after he was sent back to Liverpool early for treatment.
The Dutch skipper scored in his country’s 3-0 win over Germany last week and is now expected to be fit for Liverpool’s clash with Huddersfield this weekend.
The central defender has been in terrific form since his move from Southampton in January for £75m.
Naby Keita, however, will miss out after suffering an injury whilst playing for Guinea this week.
