Eintracht Frankfurt Takes On Liverpool in Champions League Fixture
Match Coverage
Arne Slot implemented five alterations to the starting lineup after the 2-1 defeat to Manchester United last Sunday. Mohamed Salah not in the lineup is one of the significant surprises, while Wirtz returns to the lineup. Ekitike, Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—each of them brought impact as replacements in the previous match—have been included in the starting eleven, along with Andy Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Mac Allister are on the bench, and Gravenberch is unavailable due to an ankle injury.

How the Reds will start to play against Frankfurt 🔴 #ChampionsLeague
Preamble
Following suffering four fixtures in a row, Liverpool are not exactly entering uncharted waters. However, the last time the club lost five consecutive defeats on the bounce was during the 1950s, with manager Don Welsh. This campaign ended in the drop from the first division.
Currently, no one is claiming that Liverpool are going down now. But the manager will be keen to prevent repeating that piece of history. Liverpool need to bring their domestic and European campaigns on course as soon as possible.
Eintracht Frankfurt's first two fixtures in this year's tournament both ended with a 5-1 scoreline—a home win over Galatasaray and an loss on the road at Madrid. Liverpool, on the other hand, have defeated the side Frankfurt were beaten by, and lost to the one they won against. Therefore, forecasting this match proves particularly challenging.
The unpredictable fun starts at 8pm UK time. Let's go!
