Eintracht Frankfurt Faces Liverpool in UCL Clash

Game Highlights

Arne Slot introduced several changes to the starting XI following the loss to Manchester United last Sunday. Salah starting on the bench is one of the key changes, while Florian Wirtz returns to the lineup. Ekitike, Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—all of whom added energy as replacements in the previous match—are also included in the lineup, together with Andy Robertson. Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Alexis Mac Allister are on the substitutes' bench, while Gravenberch is unavailable because of an ankle issue.

Liverpool line up to face Frankfurt 🔴 #ChampionsLeague

Preamble

After losing four games back-to-back, Liverpool are not exactly entering uncharted waters. However, the last time the team lost five consecutive losses in a row was back in the 1950s, under Don Welsh. This season ended in the drop from the old First Division.

Now, nobody's implying that Liverpool face relegation this season. Yet Arne Slot will be keen to avoid repeating that bit of the past. Liverpool must bring their domestic and European seasons back on track as soon as possible.

Eintracht Frankfurt's initial fixtures in this year's competition finished 5-1—a home win over Galatasaray and an loss on the road at Madrid. The Reds, meanwhile, have beaten the team Frankfurt lost to, and been defeated by the one they beat. Therefore, predicting this match is especially challenging.

The exciting action starts at 8pm UK time. It's on!
