Frankfurt Takes On The Reds in Champions League Fixture

Game Highlights

Arne Slot has made multiple changes to the starting lineup following the setback to United last Sunday. Salah being dropped is among the significant changes, while Florian Wirtz returns to the lineup. Ekitike, Jones, and Frimpong—each of them added energy as replacements in the recent fixture—are also included in the starting eleven, along with Robertson. Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Alexis Mac Allister are on the substitutes' bench, and Ryan Gravenberch is unavailable because of an ankle issue.

Lineup Announcement

Liverpool will start to play against Frankfurt 🔴 #ChampionsLeague

Preamble

Following suffering four games in a row, Liverpool are not exactly heading towards uncharted waters. But, the last time the club lost five defeats on the bounce was back in the 1950s, under Don Welsh. That campaign ended in relegation from the first division.

Currently, nobody's implying that Liverpool face relegation now. Yet Arne Slot is keen to avoid making that piece of the past. Liverpool must get their Premier League and European seasons moving positively quickly.

Eintracht Frankfurt's first two fixtures in this season's competition both ended with a 5-1 scoreline—a home win over their opponents and an loss on the road at Atletico Madrid. Liverpool, on the other hand, have beaten the team Frankfurt lost to, and been defeated by the one Eintracht beat. Therefore, forecasting this game proves especially challenging.

This exciting action starts at 8pm UK time. Kickoff is here!
