Frankfurt Faces Liverpool in Champions League Clash

Live Updates

Liverpool's manager implemented five adjustments to the starting lineup after the 2-1 defeat to United over the weekend. Mohamed Salah being dropped is among the key developments, while Florian Wirtz returns to the starting side. Hugo Ekitike, Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—each of them brought impact as substitutes in the recent fixture—are also named in the starting eleven, along with Andy Robertson. Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Mac Allister are on the bench, and Gravenberch is absent due to an ankle issue.

Match Background

Following suffering four matches back-to-back, the Reds aren't quite entering unknown territory. However, the previous occasion the team suffered five consecutive losses in a row was during the 1950s, under manager Don Welsh. This season ended in the drop from the first division.

Currently, no one is claiming that Liverpool are going down now. Yet the manager is eager to avoid making that piece of history. Liverpool must get their domestic and Champions League seasons back on track quickly.

Eintracht Frankfurt's first two matches in this year's competition both ended with a 5-1 scoreline—a victory at home over Galatasaray and an away defeat at Madrid. The Reds, on the other hand, have beaten the side Frankfurt were beaten by, and been defeated by the team they beat. So, forecasting this game is particularly challenging.

The unpredictable action begins at 8pm UK time. It's on!
