Eintracht Frankfurt Faces Liverpool in UCL Fixture
Match Coverage
Arne Slot has made multiple changes to the starting lineup following the 2-1 defeat to Manchester United on Sunday. Mohamed Salah being dropped is among the major surprises, while Wirtz is back to the starting side. Ekitike, Curtis Jones, and Frimpong—all of whom brought impact as replacements in the last game—are also included in the starting eleven, together with Robertson. Kerkez, Bradley, and Alexis Mac Allister drop to the substitutes' bench, while Ryan Gravenberch is absent because of an ankle injury.

How the Reds are set up to face Frankfurt 🔴 #UCL
Pre-Match Context
Following losing four fixtures back-to-back, Liverpool are not exactly heading towards unfamiliar ground. However, the last time the team suffered five consecutive losses in a row was during 1953, under Don Welsh. That season resulted in the drop from the first division.
Now, no one is implying that Liverpool face relegation this season. Yet the manager is keen to avoid making that bit of history. The team must bring their domestic and European seasons moving positively as soon as possible.
Frankfurt's first two matches in this year's competition both ended with a 5-1 scoreline—a victory at home over Galatasaray and an loss on the road at Atletico Madrid. The Reds, on the other hand, have beaten the side Frankfurt lost to, and lost to the one they beat. So, predicting this game is especially challenging.
The unpredictable action begins at 20:00 GMT. Let's go!
