Eintracht Frankfurt Battles Liverpool in Champions League Fixture
Match Coverage
Liverpool's manager has made five adjustments to the starting XI after the loss to Manchester United on Sunday. Mohamed Salah starting on the bench is among the key developments, while Florian Wirtz is back to the first team. Hugo Ekitike, Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—all of whom brought impact as substitutes in the last game—are also included in the lineup, along with Robertson. Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Alexis Mac Allister are on the bench, while Gravenberch is absent due to an ankle injury.

Liverpool will start to face Eintracht Frankfurt 🔴 #UCL
Preamble
After suffering four matches back-to-back, the Reds are not exactly entering uncharted waters. However, the previous occasion the team lost five losses on the bounce was during the 1950s, under manager Don Welsh. This season resulted in relegation from the first division.
Now, nobody's claiming that the team face relegation now. But Arne Slot is keen to avoid making that bit of history. The team need to bring their domestic and European seasons moving positively quickly.
Frankfurt's first two matches in this season's tournament both ended 5-1—a victory at home over their opponents and an away defeat at Atletico Madrid. The Reds, meanwhile, have defeated the team Eintracht lost to, and been defeated by the one Eintracht beat. So, predicting this match is particularly difficult.
This exciting action begins at 20:00 GMT. Kickoff is here!
