Frankfurt Battles The Reds in UCL Fixture
Match Coverage
Arne Slot introduced several changes to the first eleven after the 2-1 defeat to United on Sunday. Salah not in the lineup is one of the major surprises, while Wirtz is back to the lineup. Ekitike, Jones, and Frimpong—all of whom added energy as substitutes in the last game—are also included in the starting eleven, along with Andy Robertson. Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Alexis Mac Allister drop to the bench, and Gravenberch is absent due to an ankle injury.

Match Background
Following losing four games consecutively, the Reds aren't quite entering unfamiliar ground. However, the previous occasion the club lost five defeats in a row was back in 1953, under manager Don Welsh. This season ended in the drop from the old First Division.
Now, nobody's implying that the team face relegation this season. But the manager is keen to prevent making that piece of the past. Liverpool need to bring their Premier League and European campaigns moving positively as soon as possible.
Eintracht Frankfurt's first two fixtures in this year's competition finished with a 5-1 scoreline—a victory at home over their opponents and an away defeat at Madrid. The Reds, meanwhile, have beaten the team Frankfurt lost to, and lost to the team Eintracht beat. So, forecasting this match is particularly challenging.
This unpredictable fun begins at 20:00 GMT. Kickoff is here!
