Eintracht Frankfurt Battles Liverpool in Champions League Match
Game Highlights
Arne Slot implemented multiple changes to the starting XI after the 2-1 defeat to United on Sunday. Salah not in the lineup is one of the significant changes, while Florian Wirtz returns to the first team. Ekitike, Curtis Jones, and Frimpong—all of whom made a difference as substitutes in the previous match—are also named in the starting eleven, along with Andy Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Alexis Mac Allister drop to the bench, while Ryan Gravenberch is absent due to an ankle injury.

Match Background
Following losing four fixtures back-to-back, Liverpool are not exactly heading towards unfamiliar ground. However, the previous occasion the club suffered five losses in a row was back in the 1950s, with manager Don Welsh. This season resulted in the drop from the first division.
Now, no one is seriously suggesting that the team are going down this season. Yet Arne Slot is eager to avoid making that bit of the past. The team must bring their Premier League and European campaigns on course as soon as possible.
Eintracht Frankfurt's first two fixtures in this year's tournament both ended with a 5-1 scoreline—a victory at home over their opponents and an away defeat at Atletico Madrid. Liverpool, meanwhile, have beaten the side Eintracht lost to, and lost to the one they won against. So, predicting this match is particularly difficult.
