Frankfurt Takes On The Reds in UCL Fixture
Game Highlights
Arne Slot introduced multiple adjustments to the starting XI after the 2-1 defeat to United over the weekend. Mohamed Salah being dropped is one of the key developments, while Florian Wirtz is back to the lineup. Hugo Ekitike, Curtis Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—each of them brought impact as substitutes in the previous match—have been named in the starting eleven, along with Robertson. Kerkez, Bradley, and Alexis Mac Allister are on the bench, and Ryan Gravenberch is absent because of an ankle injury.

How the Reds will start to play against Eintracht Frankfurt 🔴 #UCL
Pre-Match Context
After losing four matches in a row, the Reds aren't quite entering uncharted waters. However, the previous occasion the club lost five consecutive defeats in a row was during 1953, under manager Don Welsh. This season resulted in the drop from the top flight.
Now, no one is seriously suggesting that the team face relegation now. But Arne Slot will be keen to prevent repeating that piece of the past. Liverpool need to get their domestic and Champions League campaigns on course quickly.
Eintracht Frankfurt's initial fixtures in this season's tournament finished 5-1—a victory at home over their opponents and an loss on the road at Madrid. Liverpool, meanwhile, have defeated the side Frankfurt lost to, and been defeated by the one Eintracht beat. Therefore, predicting this match proves especially difficult.
