Eintracht Frankfurt Battles Liverpool in Champions League Fixture
Live Updates
Arne Slot has made several alterations to the starting lineup following the 2-1 defeat to United over the weekend. Salah being dropped is among the key surprises, while Florian Wirtz is back to the starting side. Ekitike, Curtis Jones, and Frimpong—each of them made a difference as substitutes in the previous match—have been named in the starting eleven, along with Andy Robertson. Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Mac Allister are on the bench, and Ryan Gravenberch is unavailable because of an ankle issue.

Liverpool will start to play against Frankfurt 🔴 #ChampionsLeague
Match Background
Following suffering four fixtures in a row, the Reds are not exactly heading towards uncharted waters. However, the last time the club lost five defeats on the bounce was back in 1953, with Don Welsh. This campaign resulted in the drop from the first division.
Now, nobody's implying that Liverpool face relegation this season. But Arne Slot will be eager to prevent making that piece of the past. Liverpool need to bring their domestic and Champions League campaigns back on track quickly.
Frankfurt's first two fixtures in this year's tournament finished 5-1—a home win over their opponents and an away defeat at Atletico Madrid. Liverpool, meanwhile, have beaten the team Eintracht lost to, and lost to the team they beat. So, forecasting this game is especially challenging.
The unpredictable action begins at 20:00 GMT. It's on!
