The reigning champions are currently unbeaten in their opening 12 games of the campaign, having won nine of those matches to lead the table by five points.
Summer signing Van Dijk believes there is enough quality in Neil Lennon's squad to maintain their unblemished league record, but knows it will be tough after suffering a shock League Cup exit at the hands of Scottish Championship side Morton.
"The Champions League has been very exciting for everyone at the club but the league games have been great as well," Van Dijk told the Daily Record.
"We are still unbeaten and that is something we want to continue for as long as possible.
"I know this is the best start to a league season Celtic have had in a long time and you want to come out on top in every game you play, of course.
"With the quality we have we think can achieve that.
"But the game against Morton showed just how difficult it is to win every time.
"We felt we were unlucky that night as we had chances to score but we still lost."
