It has been a dream start to the Champions League for Arne Slot this term, as Liverpool have won each of their opening five matches at the start of the competition.
The Reds already look to have secured their spot in the top eight places, as they hold a five-point advantage with just three rounds of matches remaining.
Girona upset the odds in Spain’s top flight last season to achieve a top-four finish. However, their journey in the Champions League looks close to being over after winning just once in five outings.
Odds
Based on their form in the competition to this point, Liverpool could be hard to overlook on the moneyline at -225. Girona is the outside selection at +597.
