There are plenty of former Premier League players in the Girona side who are languishing in 30th place in the table.
Donny van de Beek and Daley Blind both spent time with Liverpool’s rivals Manchester United while Oriol Romeu and Paulo Gazzaniga were with Southampton – among others.
This is the first time the sides have met.
Girona XI: Paulo Gazzaniga, Daley Blind, Ladislav Krejcí, Juanpe, Alejandro Francés, Miguel Gutiérrez, Oriol Romeu, Donny van de Beek, Bryan Gil, Yáser Asprilla, Arnaut Danjuma
