Frankfurt Takes On The Reds in Champions League Match
Match Coverage
Liverpool's manager has made several changes to the first eleven following the setback to Manchester United last Sunday. Mohamed Salah not in the lineup is among the key developments, while Wirtz is back to the first team. Ekitike, Jones, and Frimpong—all of whom brought impact as replacements in the last game—have been included in the lineup, together with Andy Robertson. Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Alexis Mac Allister are on the bench, while Gravenberch is absent because of an ankle issue.

How the Reds line up to play against Eintracht Frankfurt 🔴 #ChampionsLeague
Preamble
Following losing four games consecutively, the Reds are not exactly entering unknown territory. However, the previous occasion the team lost five consecutive defeats on the bounce was back in 1953, with manager Don Welsh. That campaign ended in the drop from the old First Division.
Now, nobody's claiming that Liverpool are going down now. But Arne Slot is keen to prevent repeating that piece of history. The team must get their domestic and European campaigns back on track as soon as possible.
Eintracht Frankfurt's initial fixtures in this year's competition finished with a 5-1 scoreline—a victory at home over their opponents and an away defeat at Atletico Madrid. The Reds, meanwhile, have beaten the side Frankfurt lost to, and been defeated by the one they beat. Therefore, predicting this game proves especially difficult.
This exciting action begins at 20:00 GMT. Kickoff is here!
