Eintracht Frankfurt Faces The Reds in Champions League Match

Match Coverage

Arne Slot implemented several changes to the starting lineup after the 2-1 defeat to Manchester United on Sunday. Salah starting on the bench is among the key developments, while Wirtz is back to the lineup. Ekitike, Curtis Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—all of whom brought impact as substitutes in the previous match—have been included in the lineup, together with Robertson. Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Alexis Mac Allister drop to the bench, and Gravenberch is unavailable due to an knock.

Liverpool are set up to play against Frankfurt 🔴 #UCL

Pre-Match Context

Following suffering four fixtures back-to-back, Liverpool are not exactly heading towards uncharted waters. But, the previous occasion the club lost five consecutive losses in a row was back in 1953, under Don Welsh. That season resulted in the drop from the first division.

Now, nobody's implying that Liverpool face relegation now. Yet the manager is eager to avoid repeating that piece of the past. The team must bring their Premier League and European seasons back on track quickly.

Frankfurt's first two fixtures in this year's competition both ended 5-1—a victory at home over Galatasaray and an away defeat at Atletico Madrid. The Reds, on the other hand, have defeated the team Frankfurt were beaten by, and lost to the team they won against. Therefore, forecasting this game is especially difficult.

This unpredictable action begins at 8pm UK time. It's on!
