Virgil van Dijk insists Liverpool CAN challenge Man City for the Premier League title...but they'll need 'a bit of luck' on their side to succeed

Virgil Van Dijk insists Liverpool’s young squad has the quality to challenge Manchester City for the Premier League title but they will need luck on their side, with the two titans set to meet at the Etihad Stadium in the first game back after the international break.

Liverpool are just a point behind the champions after 12 matches and will go to Manchester full of confidence after a thumping win over Brentford on Sunday. And captain Van Dijk says there is still so much to play for, with the Reds still competing on four fronts.
