Spoiler warning
#Spoiler warning ThisThis question contains details about S07E07.
This recent question: Why did the Starks kill this character by trial, and not by simply having Arya do it in secret? explain a lot about the motivation of some of the characters. These others from movies.se highlight additional details about what is going on, even behind the scenes, before and during this event of S07E07:
Given this information, my question is
Could had Littlefinger asked for trial by combat and hope to get away with murder (and treason) if his champion had bested the Starks' champion?
And, on one note
To be clear, I'm not interested on knowing if the Starks' champion would had been Arya and if she is unbeatable or not. My question clearly is if Littlefinger could had done this request and hoped for the best to succeed.
