Eintracht Frankfurt Takes On Liverpool in Champions League Fixture
Match Coverage
Arne Slot implemented several adjustments to the starting lineup following the 2-1 defeat to Manchester United last Sunday. Mohamed Salah not in the lineup is among the significant developments, while Wirtz returns to the lineup. Ekitike, Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—each of them added energy as replacements in the recent fixture—have been included in the starting eleven, together with Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Bradley, and Mac Allister drop to the bench, and Ryan Gravenberch is absent because of an ankle issue.

Pre-Match Context
After losing four games back-to-back, Liverpool aren't quite heading towards unfamiliar ground. But, the last time the club suffered five defeats on the bounce was back in the 1950s, under manager Don Welsh. That season ended in relegation from the top flight.
Currently, no one is implying that the team face relegation this season. But Arne Slot is keen to avoid making that piece of history. Liverpool must bring their Premier League and European campaigns on course quickly.
Eintracht Frankfurt's first two fixtures in this season's competition finished 5-1—a home win over Galatasaray and an loss on the road at Atletico Madrid. The Reds, on the other hand, have defeated the team Eintracht lost to, and lost to the team they beat. So, forecasting this match proves especially challenging.
The exciting fun begins at 20:00 GMT. It's on!
