Frankfurt Faces The Reds in Champions League Clash
Match Coverage
Liverpool's manager implemented several adjustments to the starting lineup following the 2-1 defeat to Manchester United over the weekend. Salah starting on the bench is one of the significant surprises, while Florian Wirtz is back to the lineup. Ekitike, Jones, and Frimpong—each of them added energy as substitutes in the previous match—are also included in the starting eleven, along with Robertson. Kerkez, Bradley, and Alexis Mac Allister are on the bench, while Gravenberch is absent because of an ankle issue.

Pre-Match Context
After losing four matches back-to-back, the Reds are not exactly entering uncharted waters. But, the last time the team lost five defeats in a row was back in the 1950s, with manager Don Welsh. This season ended in the drop from the old First Division.
Currently, nobody's implying that the team face relegation now. But the manager is keen to prevent repeating that bit of history. The team need to get their Premier League and European campaigns on course as soon as possible.
Eintracht Frankfurt's initial matches in this year's competition both ended 5-1—a victory at home over their opponents and an loss on the road at Madrid. The Reds, meanwhile, have beaten the side Eintracht lost to, and been defeated by the one they won against. So, predicting this game is especially difficult.
This exciting action begins at 20:00 GMT. Kickoff is here!
