Frankfurt Battles The Reds in UCL Match
Live Updates
Liverpool's manager introduced five alterations to the starting XI following the setback to Manchester United last Sunday. Salah starting on the bench is among the key changes, while Florian Wirtz is back to the starting side. Hugo Ekitike, Curtis Jones, and Frimpong—all of whom brought impact as replacements in the recent fixture—are also named in the starting eleven, along with Andy Robertson. Milos Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Mac Allister are on the substitutes' bench, while Gravenberch is absent because of an ankle issue.

Liverpool are set up to face Frankfurt 🔴 #UCL
Pre-Match Context
Following losing four games in a row, Liverpool are not exactly entering uncharted waters. But, the last time the club suffered five losses in a row was during the 1950s, under Don Welsh. That campaign ended in relegation from the old First Division.
Now, nobody's implying that the team are going down now. But Arne Slot will be eager to avoid repeating that piece of history. The team need to bring their Premier League and European campaigns back on track quickly.
Frankfurt's first two matches in this year's competition finished with a 5-1 scoreline—a home win over Galatasaray and an away defeat at Madrid. Liverpool, meanwhile, have beaten the team Frankfurt were beaten by, and been defeated by the one they beat. So, predicting this match is particularly challenging.
This unpredictable action starts at 20:00 GMT. Kickoff is here!
