Daniel Sturridge starts for Liverpool against Aston Villa in Premier League

Daniel Sturridge has made his long-awaited return from injury as he starts in the Premier League against Aston Villa.

Sturridge was an unused substitute for Saturday's 2-2 draw at home to Sunderland and came on as a sub in the fourth-round FA Cup replay against West Ham having not played since Dec. 6.

It is only the second time in Jurgen Klopp's 30 games that Sturridge has started due to a variety of injures.
