Eintracht Frankfurt Battles The Reds in Champions League Fixture

Live Updates

Liverpool's manager introduced several alterations to the starting lineup after the 2-1 defeat to Manchester United on Sunday. Salah not in the lineup is one of the significant surprises, while Florian Wirtz returns to the first team. Hugo Ekitike, Jones, and Frimpong—each of them made a difference as substitutes in the previous match—have been named in the starting eleven, together with Andy Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Bradley, and Mac Allister drop to the bench, while Gravenberch is unavailable due to an knock.

How the Reds will start to play against Frankfurt 🔴 #ChampionsLeague

Pre-Match Context

After losing four games back-to-back, the Reds are not exactly entering unfamiliar ground. But, the last time the team suffered five consecutive defeats in a row was during the 1950s, under manager Don Welsh. This campaign resulted in relegation from the first division.

Currently, no one is implying that Liverpool are going down now. Yet Arne Slot will be keen to avoid making that piece of the past. Liverpool need to get their Premier League and Champions League campaigns moving positively as soon as possible.

Frankfurt's first two matches in this year's tournament both ended 5-1—a victory at home over Galatasaray and an loss on the road at Madrid. Liverpool, on the other hand, have beaten the side Frankfurt lost to, and lost to the team Eintracht won against. Therefore, predicting this match proves especially difficult.

This exciting action begins at 8 p.m. BST. Kickoff is here!
