Trent Alexander-Arnold is worth more than than the entire Girona defence combined, as we compared the squad values ahead of Girona vs Liverpool in the Champions League.
Arne Slot has made an electric start to his tenure as Liverpool manager, sitting top of both the Premier League and Champions League.
The Reds have been flawless in Europe’s elite competition, winning each of their opening five matches and conceding just one goal so far.
So far, Liverpool have beaten AC Milan, Real Madrid, Bayer Leverkusen, RB Leipzig and Bologna – making them favourites to win the competition on UK betting sites.
Mohamed Salah has been on fire for Liverpool once again, contributing to five goals in five Champions League appearances so far (1G+4A).
As for Girona, results have been hard to find in both their La Liga and Champions League campaigns – winning just one UCL match so far.
The Spanish side are currently 30th in the new Champions League table, which is six places below the qualification spots.
Last time around, Michel’s side were beaten 1-0 by Sturm Graz and the La Liga side have failed to win in their last four matches (all competitions).
This poor form has come at an awful time for Girona, given Liverpool’s performances under Slot and finding a result on Tuesday evening could prove difficult.
Beating Liverpool will be an improbable task due to Girona’s results this season and this is only furthered by the huge disparity in squad values.
Arne Slot’s side are worth almost five times more than their Spanish opposition and Trent Alexander-Arnold is worth more than the entire Girona defence combined (according to Transfermarkt data).
The Englishman has been back to his sparkling best this season despite some struggles with injury and is expected to feature against Girona.
Liverpool’s most expensive player, according to the data, is Colombian international Luis Diaz – who is worth over double the amount of Girona’s most expensive star, Viktor Tsygankov.
