Eintracht Frankfurt Takes On The Reds in UCL Clash

Game Highlights

Arne Slot introduced several adjustments to the starting lineup following the 2-1 defeat to Manchester United last Sunday. Salah not in the lineup is among the major changes, while Wirtz returns to the starting side. Hugo Ekitike, Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—all of whom added energy as substitutes in the previous match—have been included in the starting eleven, along with Andy Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Alexis Mac Allister are on the substitutes' bench, and Gravenberch is unavailable due to an ankle injury.

Pre-Match Context

After suffering four fixtures consecutively, Liverpool are not exactly entering unknown territory. However, the last time the club suffered five consecutive defeats on the bounce was back in the 1950s, with Don Welsh. This season ended in the drop from the first division.

Currently, no one is implying that the team are going down this season. But Arne Slot is eager to avoid repeating that bit of history. Liverpool need to get their domestic and Champions League campaigns back on track quickly.

Eintracht Frankfurt's initial fixtures in this season's tournament finished with a 5-1 scoreline—a victory at home over Galatasaray and an away defeat at Atletico Madrid. The Reds, meanwhile, have beaten the team Frankfurt lost to, and lost to the team Eintracht won against. So, predicting this match is especially challenging.

This unpredictable action begins at 20:00 GMT. It's on!
