Frankfurt Battles The Reds in Champions League Match

Live Updates

Liverpool's manager has made multiple changes to the starting XI after the setback to United last Sunday. Mohamed Salah being dropped is one of the significant developments, while Florian Wirtz returns to the first team. Ekitike, Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—each of them made a difference as replacements in the recent fixture—are also named in the starting eleven, together with Robertson. Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Mac Allister are on the substitutes' bench, while Gravenberch is absent because of an ankle issue.

Match Background

After suffering four games back-to-back, the Reds are not exactly heading towards uncharted waters. However, the last time the club suffered five consecutive defeats on the bounce was back in the 1950s, with Don Welsh. This campaign ended in relegation from the top flight.

Currently, no one is seriously suggesting that Liverpool face relegation this season. But Arne Slot is eager to prevent making that piece of history. Liverpool need to bring their domestic and European campaigns on course as soon as possible.

Eintracht Frankfurt's initial matches in this season's tournament finished 5-1—a home win over their opponents and an away defeat at Madrid. The Reds, meanwhile, have beaten the team Frankfurt lost to, and lost to the team they beat. Therefore, forecasting this match is especially challenging.

This unpredictable fun starts at 8 p.m. BST. Let's go!
