The Reds skipper picked up a hamstring injury during Liverpool’s 1-0 defeat against Atletico Madrid in the first leg in Spain last month.
The 29-year-old hasn’t played for Liverpool since, and the club need their inspirational midfielder back as they will take on Atletico in the second leg of the Champions League Round of 16 next week.
Liverpool have missed Henderson badly as they lost against Watford and Chelsea prior to their win against Bournemouth.
The Reds won 2-1 against Bournemouth in the Premiership on Saturday with goals coming from Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane in the first half.
The Liverpool midfield have looked fragile in the absence of Henderson. Fabinho has looked rusty since he returned from his ankle ligament injury while Gini Wijnaldum and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain hasn’t been at their best recently.
Klopp is also confident that Andy Robertson will be available for the meeting with Atletico on Wednesday after he missed the victory over the Cherries as a precaution.
