Frankfurt Takes On Liverpool in Champions League Match
Match Coverage
Liverpool's manager introduced multiple adjustments to the first eleven following the loss to United over the weekend. Mohamed Salah starting on the bench is among the significant surprises, while Florian Wirtz is back to the starting side. Hugo Ekitike, Jones, and Frimpong—each of them made a difference as replacements in the recent fixture—are also included in the starting eleven, along with Andy Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Alexis Mac Allister drop to the bench, and Gravenberch is absent because of an ankle injury.

Pre-Match Context
After losing four matches in a row, the Reds are not exactly entering unknown territory. However, the last time the club lost five losses in a row was during the 1950s, under Don Welsh. That season ended in relegation from the first division.
Currently, no one is claiming that the team are going down now. Yet the manager is keen to avoid making that piece of history. Liverpool must bring their Premier League and European campaigns on course quickly.
Eintracht Frankfurt's first two matches in this season's tournament finished with a 5-1 scoreline—a victory at home over Galatasaray and an away defeat at Madrid. The Reds, meanwhile, have defeated the side Eintracht were beaten by, and lost to the one Eintracht beat. Therefore, forecasting this game proves especially challenging.
