Game Highlights

Arne Slot implemented multiple changes to the starting lineup following the 2-1 defeat to United on Sunday. Salah starting on the bench is one of the significant surprises, while Florian Wirtz returns to the first team. Ekitike, Curtis Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—each of them brought impact as replacements in the previous match—have been named in the lineup, together with Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Bradley, and Mac Allister drop to the substitutes' bench, while Gravenberch is absent due to an ankle issue.

Liverpool line up to face Eintracht Frankfurt 🔴 #UCL

Match Background

After suffering four fixtures in a row, Liverpool aren't quite entering unfamiliar ground. But, the last time the team suffered five defeats on the bounce was back in 1953, with Don Welsh. This campaign resulted in the drop from the old First Division.

Now, no one is implying that Liverpool face relegation now. But Arne Slot will be keen to avoid repeating that bit of the past. Liverpool need to get their Premier League and Champions League campaigns moving positively as soon as possible.

Frankfurt's first two fixtures in this year's tournament both ended 5-1—a home win over their opponents and an away defeat at Madrid. Liverpool, meanwhile, have beaten the team Frankfurt lost to, and lost to the one Eintracht won against. Therefore, forecasting this game is especially difficult.

The unpredictable action begins at 8pm UK time. Let's go!
