Frankfurt Battles The Reds in Champions League Fixture
Match Coverage
Liverpool's manager implemented several changes to the starting lineup following the loss to United last Sunday. Salah starting on the bench is one of the key developments, while Florian Wirtz is back to the first team. Hugo Ekitike, Curtis Jones, and Frimpong—all of whom added energy as replacements in the recent fixture—are also included in the lineup, together with Andy Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Alexis Mac Allister drop to the substitutes' bench, while Ryan Gravenberch is unavailable because of an ankle issue.

Liverpool are set up to take on Eintracht Frankfurt 🔴 #UCL
Preamble
Following losing four games back-to-back, Liverpool aren't quite entering unknown territory. But, the previous occasion the team lost five consecutive defeats on the bounce was back in the 1950s, under Don Welsh. This campaign ended in the drop from the first division.
Now, nobody's seriously suggesting that the team are going down this season. But Arne Slot will be eager to prevent making that piece of the past. Liverpool must bring their domestic and European seasons on course quickly.
Frankfurt's initial fixtures in this season's tournament both ended 5-1—a home win over Galatasaray and an loss on the road at Madrid. Liverpool, meanwhile, have beaten the team Eintracht were beaten by, and lost to the one they beat. So, forecasting this match is particularly challenging.
The unpredictable action starts at 8 p.m. BST. Let's go!
