Frankfurt Takes On The Reds in UCL Match

Match Coverage

Arne Slot implemented multiple alterations to the starting XI following the setback to Manchester United last Sunday. Mohamed Salah starting on the bench is one of the significant developments, while Florian Wirtz is back to the lineup. Hugo Ekitike, Jones, and Frimpong—all of whom added energy as replacements in the recent fixture—have been included in the starting eleven, along with Andy Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Mac Allister are on the substitutes' bench, while Ryan Gravenberch is unavailable due to an knock.

Liverpool line up to face Frankfurt 🔴 #ChampionsLeague

Preamble

Following losing four fixtures in a row, the Reds are not exactly heading towards unknown territory. But, the last time the club lost five consecutive defeats on the bounce was back in 1953, under manager Don Welsh. That campaign resulted in relegation from the first division.

Currently, no one is seriously suggesting that Liverpool are going down this season. But the manager will be keen to avoid making that piece of the past. The team need to get their domestic and Champions League seasons on course as soon as possible.

Eintracht Frankfurt's initial fixtures in this year's tournament both ended with a 5-1 scoreline—a home win over their opponents and an loss on the road at Atletico Madrid. The Reds, on the other hand, have beaten the team Eintracht were beaten by, and lost to the team they beat. So, forecasting this game is especially challenging.

This unpredictable fun begins at 20:00 GMT. Let's go!
