Frankfurt Faces Liverpool in Champions League Clash
Live Updates
Arne Slot has made several changes to the starting XI following the 2-1 defeat to Manchester United last Sunday. Mohamed Salah not in the lineup is among the key surprises, while Florian Wirtz returns to the lineup. Ekitike, Jones, and Frimpong—each of them brought impact as replacements in the recent fixture—are also named in the starting eleven, together with Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Bradley, and Mac Allister drop to the substitutes' bench, while Gravenberch is absent because of an ankle issue.

Liverpool will start to take on Eintracht Frankfurt 🔴 #UCL
Match Background
Following suffering four fixtures back-to-back, the Reds are not exactly heading towards unfamiliar ground. However, the last time the team suffered five losses on the bounce was during the 1950s, with manager Don Welsh. That season ended in the drop from the old First Division.
Currently, nobody's implying that the team are going down this season. Yet the manager is keen to prevent making that piece of the past. The team need to bring their Premier League and Champions League campaigns back on track as soon as possible.
Eintracht Frankfurt's initial fixtures in this year's tournament finished with a 5-1 scoreline—a victory at home over their opponents and an away defeat at Atletico Madrid. Liverpool, meanwhile, have defeated the team Frankfurt were beaten by, and been defeated by the team Eintracht won against. So, forecasting this match is especially challenging.
The exciting fun begins at 20:00 GMT. It's on!
