Eintracht Frankfurt Faces Liverpool in Champions League Clash
Live Updates
Arne Slot introduced multiple adjustments to the starting XI after the setback to United last Sunday. Salah not in the lineup is one of the key developments, while Florian Wirtz is back to the first team. Hugo Ekitike, Curtis Jones, and Frimpong—all of whom made a difference as replacements in the previous match—are also included in the lineup, together with Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Mac Allister drop to the bench, while Gravenberch is unavailable due to an knock.

Liverpool will start to take on Eintracht Frankfurt 🔴 #UCL
Pre-Match Context
After suffering four fixtures back-to-back, the Reds are not exactly entering unfamiliar ground. However, the previous occasion the club lost five consecutive defeats in a row was back in 1953, with Don Welsh. This campaign resulted in the drop from the first division.
Currently, nobody's seriously suggesting that Liverpool are going down this season. Yet Arne Slot is keen to prevent repeating that bit of the past. Liverpool must bring their domestic and European campaigns moving positively as soon as possible.
Frankfurt's initial matches in this season's competition finished 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 team Eintracht were beaten by, and lost to the team Eintracht won against. So, predicting this game proves especially difficult.
This unpredictable fun starts at 20:00 GMT. Kickoff is here!
