Eintracht Frankfurt Takes On The Reds in Champions League Match
Live Updates
Arne Slot has made multiple changes to the first eleven after the setback to United last Sunday. Salah being dropped is one of the key surprises, while Florian Wirtz is back to the lineup. Ekitike, Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—all of whom made a difference as replacements in the last game—are also named in the lineup, along with Andy Robertson. Kerkez, Bradley, and Alexis Mac Allister are on the substitutes' bench, while Gravenberch is unavailable because of an ankle issue.

How the Reds line up to face Eintracht Frankfurt 🔴 #UCL
Preamble
After losing four fixtures back-to-back, the Reds aren't quite entering uncharted waters. However, the previous occasion the team suffered five defeats in a row was back in 1953, with manager Don Welsh. That campaign resulted in relegation from the old First Division.
Currently, no one is claiming that Liverpool are going down this season. But the manager will be keen to avoid repeating that bit of the past. Liverpool need to bring their Premier League and European campaigns on course as soon as possible.
Frankfurt's first two fixtures in this year's competition finished 5-1—a victory at home over Galatasaray and an away defeat at Atletico Madrid. Liverpool, meanwhile, have defeated the side Frankfurt were beaten by, and lost to the one Eintracht beat. Therefore, predicting this game is especially difficult.
This unpredictable action starts at 20:00 GMT. Kickoff is here!
