Eintracht Frankfurt Battles Liverpool in Champions League Fixture

Game Highlights

Liverpool's manager implemented multiple adjustments to the starting XI after the setback to United last Sunday. Mohamed Salah starting on the bench is among the key developments, while Wirtz is back to the lineup. Hugo Ekitike, Jones, and Frimpong—all of whom added energy as substitutes in the recent fixture—are also named in the lineup, along with Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Bradley, and Mac Allister are on the substitutes' bench, and Gravenberch is absent because of an ankle injury.

Pre-Match Context

After losing four fixtures in a row, the Reds are not exactly entering uncharted waters. But, the last time the team suffered five consecutive defeats on the bounce was during 1953, under Don Welsh. That season resulted in the drop from the old First Division.

Currently, no one is seriously suggesting that the team face relegation now. Yet Arne Slot is keen to avoid making that bit of history. The team must get their domestic and European seasons back on track quickly.

Eintracht Frankfurt's initial matches in this season's tournament both ended with a 5-1 scoreline—a home win 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 won against. Therefore, forecasting this match is especially challenging.

This exciting fun begins at 8 p.m. BST. It's on!
