The Argentine international was suspended for the match due to an accumulation of yellow cards. Mac Allister received his third caution of the group stage in Liverpool's recent 2-0 win over Real Madrid, triggering an automatic one-match ban.

A pivotal figure in Jürgen Klopp's starting XI, Mac Allister has been a consistent performer for Liverpool this season. His absence was felt in the midfield, but the Reds managed to secure all three points thanks to a Mohamed Salah penalty.

Liverpool's injury list has been growing in recent weeks, with Ibrahima Konaté, Diogo Jota, Federico Chiesa, Conor Bradley, and Kostas Tsimikas all sidelined. Despite the absences, the Reds have maintained their impressive form, topping their group and securing their place in the knockout stages.

Mac Allister Suspended, Liverpool Edges Past Girona

With the group stage now complete, Liverpool will turn their attention to domestic competitions. Their next fixture is a Premier League clash against Fulham, where Mac Allister will be available for selection.

Girona, on the other hand, face a challenging task to qualify for the knockout stages. They will need to win their remaining group games and hope for favorable results elsewhere.
