Frankfurt Faces Liverpool in Champions League Clash
Match Coverage
Liverpool's manager introduced five changes to the first eleven following the 2-1 defeat to United on Sunday. Salah not in the lineup is one of the major changes, while Wirtz returns to the first team. Ekitike, Curtis Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—all of whom added energy as substitutes in the last game—have been named in the lineup, along with Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Alexis Mac Allister drop to the bench, while Gravenberch is absent due to an ankle issue.

How the Reds will start to play against Frankfurt 🔴 #UCL
Match Background
After suffering four matches consecutively, the Reds aren't quite entering uncharted waters. However, the last time the team lost five consecutive losses in a row was back in 1953, under Don Welsh. That campaign resulted in relegation from the old First Division.
Currently, no one is claiming that Liverpool are going down now. But Arne Slot will be keen to avoid making that bit of the past. The team must get their Premier League and Champions League campaigns on course quickly.
Eintracht Frankfurt's first two matches in this year's tournament finished 5-1—a home win over Galatasaray and an away defeat at Atletico Madrid. Liverpool, on the other hand, have defeated the side Eintracht were beaten by, and lost to the team they won against. So, predicting this match proves especially challenging.
The unpredictable action begins at 8 p.m. BST. Let's go!
