Eintracht Frankfurt Faces The Reds in Champions League Match
Live Updates
Liverpool's manager introduced multiple adjustments to the starting XI following the 2-1 defeat to Manchester United on Sunday. Mohamed Salah starting on the bench is one of the key surprises, while Wirtz is back to the lineup. Ekitike, Curtis Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—all of whom brought impact as substitutes in the last game—are also named in the lineup, together with Andy Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Bradley, and Mac Allister are on the bench, while Ryan Gravenberch is unavailable because of an ankle issue.

Pre-Match Context
Following losing four fixtures in a row, the Reds aren't quite entering unfamiliar ground. However, the previous occasion the club lost five consecutive defeats on the bounce was back in 1953, under manager Don Welsh. That campaign ended in relegation from the first division.
Now, nobody's seriously suggesting that Liverpool are going down this season. Yet the manager is eager to prevent repeating that piece of the past. Liverpool need to get their domestic and Champions League seasons back on track as soon as possible.
Eintracht Frankfurt's first two matches in this year's competition finished 5-1—a home win over Galatasaray and an away defeat at Atletico Madrid. The Reds, on the other hand, have defeated the side Eintracht were beaten by, and been defeated by the one they beat. So, predicting this match proves especially difficult.
The exciting action begins at 8 p.m. BST. Kickoff is here!
