Eintracht Frankfurt Faces Liverpool in Champions League Match
Match Coverage
Liverpool's manager introduced multiple adjustments to the first eleven following the loss to Manchester United on Sunday. Salah starting on the bench is among the major surprises, while Florian Wirtz returns to the first team. Ekitike, Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—all of whom made a difference as substitutes in the previous match—are also included in the lineup, along with Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Bradley, and Mac Allister are on the bench, and Gravenberch is unavailable due to an ankle injury.

How the Reds line up to face Frankfurt đź”´ #UCL
Preamble
After suffering four games back-to-back, the Reds aren't quite entering unknown territory. But, the last time the club lost five defeats in a row was during the 1950s, with manager Don Welsh. That campaign resulted in the drop from the old First Division.
Now, nobody's seriously suggesting that the team are going down this season. But the manager will be keen to prevent repeating that bit of the past. Liverpool must bring their domestic and European campaigns moving positively quickly.
Eintracht Frankfurt's first two fixtures in this season's competition finished 5-1—a victory at home over their opponents and an away defeat at Madrid. Liverpool, on the other hand, have beaten the team Eintracht were beaten by, and been defeated by the one they won against. So, predicting this game is especially difficult.
This exciting action begins at 8 p.m. BST. It's on!
