Match Coverage

Liverpool's manager introduced multiple alterations to the starting lineup following the 2-1 defeat to Manchester United on Sunday.

Ekitike, Curtis Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—all of whom made a difference as replacements in the last game—have been included in the lineup, together with Robertson. Kerkez, Bradley, and Mac Allister drop to the bench, while Ryan Gravenberch is absent because of an ankle injury.

How the Reds are set up to take on Frankfurt 🔴 #UCL

Pre-Match Context

Following losing four matches back-to-back, Liverpool aren't quite heading towards unknown territory. But, the previous occasion the club suffered five losses in a row was back in the 1950s, under manager Don Welsh. This campaign resulted in the drop from the top flight.

Now, no one is implying that Liverpool are going down now. But Arne Slot will be eager to avoid making that bit of the past. The team need to get their domestic and Champions League seasons back on track as soon as possible.

Eintracht Frankfurt's initial fixtures 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 Madrid. The Reds, meanwhile, have defeated the side Eintracht were beaten by, and been defeated by the team they won against. Therefore, predicting this game proves especially difficult.

This unpredictable action starts at 8pm UK time. It's on!
