Eintracht Frankfurt Battles Liverpool in UCL Match
Game Highlights
Liverpool's manager has made multiple changes to the starting lineup following the loss to Manchester United over the weekend. Mohamed Salah being dropped is one of the key changes, while Florian Wirtz returns to the first team. Ekitike, Jones, and Jeremie Frimpong—all of whom made a difference as replacements in the last game—are also included in the starting eleven, along with Andy Robertson. Kerkez, Bradley, and Mac Allister drop to the substitutes' bench, and Gravenberch is absent because of an knock.

Pre-Match Context
Following losing four games consecutively, the Reds aren't quite entering uncharted waters. However, the previous occasion the team lost five defeats on the bounce was during the 1950s, under manager Don Welsh. That campaign resulted in the drop from the first division.
Currently, no one is claiming that Liverpool are going down now. But the manager is eager to prevent making that piece of the past. The team must get their domestic and Champions League campaigns moving positively as soon as possible.
Eintracht Frankfurt's first two fixtures in this year's tournament both ended 5-1—a victory at home over their opponents and an loss on the road at Madrid. Liverpool, meanwhile, have beaten the side Frankfurt lost to, and been defeated by the team Eintracht won against. Therefore, forecasting this game is especially difficult.
