Eintracht Frankfurt Takes On Liverpool in UCL Fixture
Live Updates
Arne Slot implemented several changes to the starting XI following the setback to Manchester United over the weekend. Salah starting on the bench is one of the key changes, while Wirtz is back to the lineup. Hugo Ekitike, Curtis Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—each of them added energy as replacements in the previous match—have been included in the starting eleven, along with Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Mac Allister are on the bench, while Gravenberch is unavailable because of an ankle issue.

Pre-Match Context
After losing four fixtures back-to-back, Liverpool aren't quite heading towards unknown territory. However, the previous occasion the club lost five defeats in a row was back in the 1950s, under manager Don Welsh. That campaign resulted in the drop from the old First Division.
Currently, nobody's seriously suggesting that Liverpool are going down now. But the manager will be eager to prevent making that piece of history. Liverpool must bring their domestic and Champions League seasons moving positively as soon as possible.
Frankfurt's initial matches in this year's competition finished 5-1—a victory at home over Galatasaray and an loss on the road at Atletico Madrid. Liverpool, meanwhile, have defeated the side Frankfurt lost to, and been defeated by the one they beat. Therefore, predicting this game is particularly challenging.
This exciting action starts at 8pm UK time. Kickoff is here!
