Girona vs Liverpool prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups – December 10, 2024
As part of the sixth round of the UEFA Champions League, Girona will face Liverpool. The match is set to take place in Spain on Tuesday, December 10, with kickoff scheduled for 18:45 Central European Time. My prediction focuses on the winner of this game.
Match preview
Girona is grappling with significant squad issues due to numerous injuries to key players. This has caused the team to noticeably decline compared to their performances last season.
In recent matches, Girona has looked unconvincing. After being knocked out of the Copa del Rey by a fourth-division side, they suffered a comprehensive defeat to Real Madrid over the weekend.
Liverpool, under the guidance of Arne Slot, is in superb form, delivering spectacular performances. The Reds have been sweeping aside all opposition, recently defeating both Manchester City and Real Madrid.
The Merseyside club currently leads the Premier League and boasts a perfect record in the Champions League. Mohamed Salah is in excellent form, and with their weekend match against Everton postponed, Liverpool has enjoyed ample time to prepare for this encounter.
Match facts
- Girona is winless in their last four matches.
- Liverpool is unbeaten in their last 17 games.
- Girona averages two goals per game at home, while Liverpool averages 2.4 goals per game on the road.
Probable lineups
- Girona: Gazzaniga, Martinez, Lopez, Krejci, Gutierrez, Gil, Romeu, van de Beek, Danjuma, Martin, Ruiz.
- Liverpool: Kelleher, Quansah, Gomez, van Dijk, Robertson, Gravenberch, Szoboszlai, Mac Allister, Salah, Gakpo, Núñez.
Head-to-head
The teams have not faced each other at an official level before.
Prediction
Given Girona’s current struggles, they are unlikely to compete on equal footing with opponents of Liverpool’s caliber. The Spanish side faces a daunting challenge, while Liverpool is expected to secure a confident victory.
