Villarreal travels to Anfield to face Liverpool in the Champions League, hoping to disrupt the Reds’ attempt for an unprecedented quadruple of titles.
Jurgen Klopp’s side, who won the League Cup in February, have already won as many major titles as the Yellow Submarine have in their entire existence this season.
Villarreal’s only silverware came in the Europa League last season, when they defeated Manchester United on penalties in the final, and they have upset European powers Juventus and Bayern Munich by reaching the Champions League semi-finals.
The data highlight the disparity in resources and pedigree between the Spanish side and the English Premier League powers, according to AFP Sport.
