Eintracht Frankfurt Takes On Liverpool in Champions League Fixture
Game Highlights
Arne Slot introduced several changes to the starting lineup after the 2-1 defeat to United over the weekend. Mohamed Salah starting on the bench is one of the significant surprises, while Wirtz returns to the first team. Ekitike, Jones, and Frimpong—each of them brought impact as replacements in the previous match—are also included in the starting eleven, together with Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Mac Allister drop to the substitutes' bench, while Gravenberch is unavailable due to an knock.

Match Background
After suffering four games back-to-back, Liverpool are not exactly entering unknown territory. But, the previous occasion the team suffered five losses on the bounce was back in 1953, with manager Don Welsh. That campaign resulted in relegation from the first division.
Now, no one is claiming that Liverpool are going down this season. Yet the manager is keen to prevent repeating that piece of the past. The team must bring their Premier League and Champions League seasons moving positively as soon as possible.
Eintracht Frankfurt's first two fixtures in this season's tournament finished 5-1—a victory at home over Galatasaray and an loss on the road at Madrid. The Reds, on the other hand, have beaten the team Frankfurt lost to, and lost to the team Eintracht won against. Therefore, forecasting this match proves particularly difficult.
The exciting action starts at 20:00 GMT. It's on!
