Frankfurt Battles Liverpool in Champions League Match
Game Highlights
Arne Slot has made several changes to the starting lineup after the setback to Manchester United over the weekend. Mohamed Salah starting on the bench is among the key changes, while Wirtz is back to the lineup. Hugo Ekitike, Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—all of whom brought impact as substitutes in the previous match—have been named in the starting eleven, together with Andy Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Mac Allister drop to the bench, and Ryan Gravenberch is unavailable due to an ankle issue.

How the Reds will start to face Eintracht Frankfurt 🔴 #UCL
Preamble
Following suffering four games back-to-back, the Reds are not exactly heading towards unknown territory. However, the last time the club suffered five consecutive defeats in a row was during the 1950s, under manager Don Welsh. This campaign resulted in the drop from the top flight.
Now, no one is implying that the team are going down this season. But Arne Slot is keen to prevent repeating that bit of history. Liverpool need to get their Premier League and European seasons back on track as soon as possible.
Eintracht Frankfurt's initial fixtures in this year's tournament 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 side Frankfurt were beaten by, and lost to the one Eintracht won against. So, predicting this game proves particularly difficult.
