📈 Minnows Girona top the stats against Liverpool in one key metric | OneFootball

Spanish minnows Girona have not backed down tonight against visiting table-toppers Liverpool as the Champions League returns to action this week.

Despite Arne Slot's Reds coming into tonight's meeting with a chance to make it six wins from six group stage fixtures, Míchel's Blanquivermells have given the Premier League leaders a run for their money in a way that no other side has this term in Europe.

Though Liverpool have been dominant in possession, Girona have gone toe-to-toe with the English giants in an attacking standing, registering eight shots to the Reds' nine.

That number comes in as the most shots any side has managed to muster against Liverpool in a first half of a Champions League game in 2024-25.

Thankfully for Slot, the returning Alisson has been very good in goal for the English club, in what could be a critical reinforcement in a season of expectation at Anfield.

Could the Catalonians bank a memorable win tonight at Estadi Montilivi?
