Frankfurt Faces The Reds in UCL Clash
Game Highlights
Liverpool's manager has made multiple alterations to the first eleven following the setback to United last Sunday. Mohamed Salah not in the lineup is one of the key changes, while Florian Wirtz is back to the starting side. Ekitike, Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—all of whom brought impact as substitutes in the previous match—have been named in the lineup, along with Andy Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Mac Allister are on the substitutes' bench, while Ryan Gravenberch is absent due to an ankle injury.

Pre-Match Context
Following suffering four games in a row, Liverpool aren't quite heading towards uncharted waters. However, the last time the team lost five consecutive losses in a row was during the 1950s, under manager Don Welsh. This season resulted in relegation from the top flight.
Now, nobody's seriously suggesting that the team face relegation now. But Arne Slot is eager to prevent repeating that bit of history. The team need to bring their Premier League and Champions League seasons on course as soon as possible.
Frankfurt's first two matches in this year's tournament both ended 5-1—a home win over their opponents and an loss on the road at Madrid. Liverpool, on the other hand, have defeated the side Frankfurt lost to, and lost to the team they beat. Therefore, predicting this match proves especially difficult.
The exciting fun begins at 8 p.m. BST. Kickoff is here!
