Frankfurt Battles Liverpool in Champions League Fixture
Match Coverage
Arne Slot has made several alterations to the first eleven following the loss to United on Sunday. Mohamed Salah being dropped is among the significant developments, while Florian Wirtz is back to the lineup. Hugo Ekitike, Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—all of whom made a difference as replacements in the recent fixture—have been included in the lineup, together with Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Bradley, and Alexis Mac Allister are on the bench, while Gravenberch is absent because of an ankle injury.

How the Reds line up to take on Eintracht Frankfurt 🔴 #UCL
Match Background
Following losing four fixtures consecutively, the Reds aren't quite entering unfamiliar ground. However, the last time the team suffered five defeats on the bounce was back in 1953, with manager Don Welsh. This campaign ended in relegation from the first division.
Currently, no one is seriously suggesting that the team are going down now. But Arne Slot is keen to prevent making that bit of the past. The team must get their Premier League and Champions League seasons back on track as soon as possible.
Frankfurt's initial matches in this year's competition finished with a 5-1 scoreline—a home win over their opponents and an away defeat at Madrid. Liverpool, meanwhile, have beaten the team Eintracht were beaten by, and been defeated by the team Eintracht won against. Therefore, predicting this game proves particularly challenging.
The unpredictable fun starts at 20:00 GMT. Kickoff is here!
