Frankfurt Faces The Reds in UCL Fixture

Game Highlights

Liverpool's manager implemented multiple adjustments to the starting XI following the loss to Manchester United over the weekend. Mohamed Salah being dropped is among the significant surprises, while Wirtz returns to the lineup. Hugo Ekitike, Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—each of them added energy as replacements in the last game—have been named in the lineup, together with Andy Robertson. Kerkez, Bradley, and Mac Allister drop to the bench, while Gravenberch is unavailable because of an knock.

Pre-Match Context

Following losing four games in a row, Liverpool are not exactly entering unknown territory. But, the last time the team suffered five defeats in a row was back in 1953, under Don Welsh. That campaign resulted in relegation from the top flight.

Now, no one is implying that the team face relegation now. Yet the manager will be keen to avoid making that piece of the past. The team must get their Premier League and Champions League seasons back on track as soon as possible.

Eintracht Frankfurt's first two fixtures in this season's tournament finished with a 5-1 scoreline—a victory at home over their opponents and an loss on the road at Atletico Madrid. Liverpool, on the other hand, have defeated the team Eintracht were beaten by, and lost to the team Eintracht beat. Therefore, forecasting this game is particularly challenging.

The unpredictable fun begins at 8 p.m. BST. Let's go!
