Eintracht Frankfurt Takes On The Reds in Champions League Clash
Match Coverage
Arne Slot introduced five alterations to the starting lineup after the setback to United over the weekend. Mohamed Salah being dropped is among the key developments, while Wirtz returns to the first team. Hugo Ekitike, Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—each of them added energy as replacements in the last game—have been named in the starting eleven, together with Andy Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Bradley, and Alexis Mac Allister are on the substitutes' bench, and Gravenberch is absent due to an ankle issue.

Liverpool are set up to play against Frankfurt 🔴 #ChampionsLeague
Preamble
Following suffering four fixtures in a row, Liverpool aren't quite heading towards uncharted waters. However, the last time the club suffered five defeats on the bounce was back in 1953, with Don Welsh. That campaign ended in relegation from the first division.
Currently, nobody's claiming that Liverpool are going down now. But Arne Slot is eager to prevent repeating that piece of history. The team need to get their domestic and Champions League seasons on course as soon as possible.
Frankfurt's first two fixtures in this season's tournament both ended 5-1—a victory at home over their opponents and an loss on the road at Atletico Madrid. The Reds, meanwhile, have beaten the team Eintracht lost to, and lost to the one Eintracht won against. So, forecasting this match proves especially difficult.
This unpredictable action starts at 8 p.m. BST. Kickoff is here!
