Eintracht Frankfurt Battles Liverpool in UCL Fixture
Live Updates
Liverpool's manager has made multiple changes to the starting XI following the setback to Manchester United over the weekend. Mohamed Salah starting on the bench is among the major surprises, while Florian Wirtz is back to the first team. Ekitike, Curtis Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—each of them made a difference as replacements in the recent fixture—have been included in the starting eleven, along with Robertson. Kerkez, Bradley, and Alexis Mac Allister are on the bench, while Ryan Gravenberch is absent due to an ankle issue.

Pre-Match Context
Following suffering four games consecutively, Liverpool are not exactly entering unfamiliar ground. However, the last time the club suffered five defeats on the bounce was during the 1950s, under Don Welsh. This season resulted in relegation from the top flight.
Currently, nobody's implying that Liverpool face relegation now. But the manager is eager to prevent repeating that bit of the past. Liverpool need to bring their domestic and Champions League seasons moving positively as soon as possible.
Eintracht Frankfurt's first two fixtures in this year's competition finished with a 5-1 scoreline—a victory at home over Galatasaray and an loss on the road at Atletico Madrid. Liverpool, on the other hand, have beaten the team Frankfurt were beaten by, and been defeated by the team Eintracht won against. So, forecasting this game is particularly difficult.
This unpredictable fun starts at 8 p.m. BST. Kickoff is here!
