Frankfurt Takes On The Reds in UCL Fixture
Live Updates
Liverpool's manager has made several changes to the starting lineup following the 2-1 defeat to United over the weekend. Mohamed Salah not in the lineup is among the major developments, while Wirtz returns to the lineup. Ekitike, Curtis Jones, and Frimpong—all of whom added energy as replacements in the recent fixture—have been named in the lineup, together with Robertson. Kerkez, Bradley, and Alexis Mac Allister drop to the bench, and Ryan Gravenberch is unavailable because of an ankle injury.
Lineup Announcement
Liverpool will start to face Eintracht Frankfurt 🔴 #ChampionsLeague
Preamble
Following losing four fixtures consecutively, Liverpool aren't quite heading towards uncharted waters. However, the previous occasion the team suffered five defeats in a row was back in the 1950s, with Don Welsh. That campaign ended in relegation from the first division.
Currently, no one is claiming that Liverpool face relegation this season. Yet Arne Slot is keen to prevent repeating that bit of history. Liverpool must get their Premier League and Champions League seasons on course quickly.
Frankfurt's initial fixtures in this year's tournament finished with a 5-1 scoreline—a home win over their opponents and an loss on the road at Atletico Madrid. Liverpool, meanwhile, have beaten the side Eintracht were beaten by, and been defeated by the one Eintracht beat. So, forecasting this game proves particularly difficult.
The exciting fun starts at 20:00 GMT. Kickoff is here!
