How the Reds line up to play against Eintracht Frankfurt 🔴 #UCL

Pre-Match Context

Following losing four matches in a row, Liverpool are not exactly heading towards unknown territory. But, the last time the team suffered five defeats in a row was during 1953, with Don Welsh. This season ended in the drop from the top flight.

Currently, nobody's seriously suggesting that Liverpool are going down now. But Arne Slot is keen to avoid repeating that bit of history. Liverpool need to get their Premier League and European campaigns on course as soon as possible.

Eintracht Frankfurt's first two fixtures in this year's competition both ended with a 5-1 scoreline—a home win over their opponents and an loss on the road at Atletico Madrid. The Reds, on the other hand, have beaten the team Frankfurt lost to, and lost to the one Eintracht beat. So, predicting this game proves particularly difficult.

This exciting action begins at 20:00 GMT. Kickoff is here!
