Eintracht Frankfurt Faces Liverpool in UCL Fixture
Game Highlights
Liverpool's manager has made five alterations to the starting XI after the 2-1 defeat to United last Sunday. Mohamed Salah starting on the bench is one of the significant changes, while Florian Wirtz returns to the lineup. Hugo Ekitike, Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—all of whom brought impact as replacements in the last game—are also named in the starting eleven, together with Andy Robertson. Kerkez, Bradley, and Mac Allister drop to the substitutes' bench, while Gravenberch is unavailable because of an ankle injury.

Liverpool line up to take on Eintracht Frankfurt 🔴 #ChampionsLeague
Preamble
Following suffering four fixtures back-to-back, the Reds are not exactly entering uncharted waters. But, the previous occasion the club suffered five consecutive defeats in a row was during 1953, with manager Don Welsh. That season resulted in the drop from the old First Division.
Now, no one is seriously suggesting that the team are going down this season. But the manager will be eager to prevent making that bit of the past. The team must bring their domestic and Champions League seasons moving positively as soon as possible.
Frankfurt's initial fixtures in this year's competition both ended with a 5-1 scoreline—a home win over their opponents and an loss on the road at Madrid. Liverpool, meanwhile, have defeated the side Eintracht lost to, and lost to the team Eintracht won against. Therefore, predicting this game is especially challenging.
This unpredictable fun begins at 8pm UK time. It's on!
