Live Updates

Liverpool's manager has made five alterations to the starting lineup following the 2-1 defeat to Manchester United last Sunday. Salah being dropped is one of the major changes, while Wirtz returns to the starting side. Ekitike, Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—each of them made a difference as substitutes in the last game—have been named in the lineup, along with Andy Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Bradley, and Mac Allister are on the bench, while Ryan Gravenberch is unavailable because of an knock.

Match Background

After losing four games consecutively, Liverpool are not exactly heading towards uncharted waters. However, the last time the team lost five consecutive losses on the bounce was during the 1950s, with manager Don Welsh. That campaign resulted in relegation from the top flight.

Currently, no one is claiming that Liverpool are going down now. Yet Arne Slot is keen to prevent repeating that bit of the past. Liverpool need to bring their Premier League and Champions League seasons moving positively quickly.

Eintracht Frankfurt's initial fixtures in this year's competition both ended 5-1—a home win over their opponents and an loss on the road at Atletico Madrid. Liverpool, on the other hand, have beaten the side Eintracht lost to, and lost to the one Eintracht beat. Therefore, predicting this match is especially challenging.

This exciting fun starts at 8 p.m. BST. Kickoff is here!
