Frankfurt Battles Liverpool in Champions League Match
Game Highlights
Liverpool's manager introduced multiple alterations to the first eleven following the setback to United on Sunday. Salah being dropped is among the major surprises, while Wirtz returns to the lineup. Hugo Ekitike, Curtis Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—each of them brought impact as substitutes in the recent fixture—have been included in the lineup, together with Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Alexis Mac Allister are on the bench, while Gravenberch is absent due to an ankle issue.

Liverpool will start to face Frankfurt 🔴 #ChampionsLeague
Preamble
After suffering four fixtures in a row, the Reds are not exactly entering unknown territory. However, the last time the team suffered five consecutive defeats on the bounce was back in 1953, with manager Don Welsh. This season ended in the drop from the top flight.
Now, no one is seriously suggesting that the team face relegation this season. But the manager is keen to avoid repeating that bit of the past. The team must get their domestic and European campaigns on course as soon as possible.
Frankfurt's initial fixtures in this year's competition finished 5-1—a home win over Galatasaray and an away defeat at Atletico Madrid. Liverpool, on the other hand, have defeated the side Eintracht lost to, and been defeated by the one they won against. So, predicting this match is especially difficult.
The exciting action starts at 20:00 GMT. Let's go!
