Frankfurt Takes On The Reds in UCL Match
Match Coverage
Liverpool's manager introduced five alterations to the starting lineup after the 2-1 defeat to Manchester United last Sunday. Salah not in the lineup is one of the significant surprises, while Wirtz returns to the first team. Hugo Ekitike, Curtis Jones, and Frimpong—all of whom brought impact as replacements in the last game—have been named in the starting eleven, together with Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Mac Allister are on the bench, and Gravenberch is absent because of an knock.

How the Reds will start to face Frankfurt 🔴 #UCL
Preamble
After suffering four fixtures consecutively, Liverpool are not exactly heading towards unfamiliar ground. But, the last time the team suffered five losses in a row was during the 1950s, with Don Welsh. This campaign resulted in the drop from the top flight.
Currently, nobody's seriously suggesting that the team face relegation this season. But the manager will be eager to avoid repeating that bit of history. Liverpool need to bring their Premier League and Champions League campaigns back on track quickly.
Frankfurt's initial matches in this year's competition both ended with a 5-1 scoreline—a home win over their opponents and an away defeat at Atletico Madrid. Liverpool, meanwhile, have beaten the side Frankfurt lost to, and been defeated by the one Eintracht beat. So, predicting this match proves especially difficult.
This unpredictable action begins at 8 p.m. BST. Let's go!
