Eintracht Frankfurt Battles The Reds in Champions League Match
Game Highlights
Arne Slot has made multiple adjustments to the starting lineup following the loss to United on Sunday. Mohamed Salah not in the lineup is among the major changes, while Wirtz is back to the first team. Ekitike, Curtis Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—all of whom brought impact as substitutes in the last game—have been included in the lineup, along with Robertson. Kerkez, Bradley, and Mac Allister drop to the substitutes' bench, and Gravenberch is unavailable because of an ankle issue.

Match Background
Following losing four games back-to-back, Liverpool are not exactly entering unfamiliar ground. But, the last time the club lost five consecutive defeats on the bounce was during 1953, with Don Welsh. This season ended in the drop from the first division.
Now, no one is seriously suggesting that the team are going down now. But Arne Slot will be keen to prevent making that bit of the past. Liverpool must bring their Premier League and Champions League campaigns back on track as soon as possible.
Eintracht Frankfurt's first two matches in this season's tournament finished 5-1—a victory at home over their opponents and an loss on the road at Atletico Madrid. The Reds, meanwhile, have beaten the team Frankfurt were beaten by, and lost to the team Eintracht beat. So, predicting this game is particularly challenging.
