Eintracht Frankfurt Battles Liverpool in Champions League Fixture
Match Coverage
Liverpool's manager implemented five adjustments to the starting XI after the loss to United over the weekend. Salah not in the lineup is among the key surprises, while Wirtz returns to the first team. Ekitike, Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—each of them added energy as replacements in the last game—are also included in the lineup, together with Andy Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Bradley, and Mac Allister drop to the substitutes' bench, and Gravenberch is absent due to an ankle injury.

Match Background
After suffering four games in a row, the Reds aren't quite entering unfamiliar ground. However, the last time the team lost five defeats on the bounce was during the 1950s, under manager Don Welsh. That season ended in the drop from the top flight.
Now, no one is implying that the team are going down now. But Arne Slot will be eager to avoid making that piece of history. The team must get their domestic and European seasons on course quickly.
Eintracht Frankfurt's initial matches in this year's competition both ended with a 5-1 scoreline—a victory at home over their opponents and an loss on the road at Atletico Madrid. Liverpool, on the other hand, have defeated the team Frankfurt were beaten by, and been defeated by the team Eintracht beat. So, forecasting this game is particularly challenging.
This unpredictable fun begins at 20:00 GMT. Let's go!
