Frankfurt Takes On Liverpool in Champions League Clash
Match Coverage
Arne Slot introduced several alterations to the starting lineup after the loss to Manchester United over the weekend. Mohamed Salah not in the lineup is among the key surprises, while Florian Wirtz is back to the lineup. Ekitike, Curtis Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—each of them added energy as substitutes in the last game—are also included in the lineup, together with Andy Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Mac Allister are on the bench, and Gravenberch is unavailable due to an ankle injury.

Liverpool will start to face Eintracht Frankfurt 🔴 #ChampionsLeague
Preamble
After losing four matches consecutively, Liverpool aren't quite heading towards unknown territory. But, the last time the team lost five consecutive defeats on the bounce was back in 1953, with Don Welsh. This season resulted in relegation from the top flight.
Currently, nobody's implying that the team face relegation this season. But the manager is eager to avoid repeating that bit of history. The team must get their Premier League and Champions League seasons back on track quickly.
Frankfurt's first two matches in this year's tournament finished 5-1—a victory at home over Galatasaray and an away defeat at Madrid. The Reds, on the other hand, have beaten the team Eintracht were beaten by, and lost to the one Eintracht won against. Therefore, predicting this match proves particularly challenging.
The exciting action begins at 8pm UK time. Let's go!
