Eintracht Frankfurt Faces The Reds in UCL Fixture
Game Highlights
Arne Slot implemented multiple changes to the starting XI after the loss to Manchester United on Sunday. Salah being dropped is one of the significant developments, while Wirtz is back to the lineup. Ekitike, Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—each of them added energy as substitutes in the previous match—have been named in the starting eleven, together with Robertson. Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Alexis Mac Allister are on the bench, while Ryan Gravenberch is unavailable because of an ankle injury.

Pre-Match Context
After suffering four fixtures back-to-back, the Reds aren't quite heading towards unknown territory. But, the previous occasion the club lost five losses on the bounce was during the 1950s, with Don Welsh. That campaign resulted in the drop from the top flight.
Now, no one is implying that Liverpool face relegation now. But Arne Slot will be eager to avoid repeating that bit of history. The team need to get their Premier League and European campaigns moving positively as soon as possible.
Frankfurt's first two matches in this year's competition both ended with a 5-1 scoreline—a victory at home over their opponents and an loss on the road at Madrid. The Reds, meanwhile, have defeated the team Eintracht lost to, and been defeated by the team Eintracht beat. So, forecasting this game proves especially challenging.
The exciting action starts at 8pm UK time. Kickoff is here!
