Frankfurt Faces Liverpool in UCL Clash
Match Coverage
Liverpool's manager introduced several changes to the first eleven following the loss to United on Sunday. Mohamed Salah being dropped is one of the significant surprises, while Wirtz returns to the first team. Ekitike, Jones, and Frimpong—each of them added energy as replacements in the previous match—are also included in the starting eleven, along with Robertson. Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Alexis Mac Allister drop to the substitutes' bench, while Gravenberch is absent because of an ankle injury.

Match Background
Following suffering four games consecutively, the Reds are not exactly entering unfamiliar ground. But, the previous occasion the club lost five consecutive defeats in a row was during 1953, with Don Welsh. That season ended in relegation from the old First Division.
Currently, nobody's claiming that Liverpool are going down now. But the manager will be keen to avoid repeating that bit of the past. Liverpool must bring their Premier League and European campaigns moving positively as soon as possible.
Eintracht Frankfurt's first two matches in this year's competition finished with a 5-1 scoreline—a home win over their opponents and an loss on the road at Madrid. The Reds, meanwhile, have defeated the side Frankfurt lost to, and been defeated by the team Eintracht beat. Therefore, predicting this game is particularly difficult.
