How the Reds will start to play against Eintracht Frankfurt 🔴 #UCL

Match Background

Following losing four fixtures consecutively, the Reds aren't quite entering uncharted waters. However, the last time the club lost five consecutive losses on the bounce was during the 1950s, with Don Welsh. This season ended in the drop from the old First Division.

Now, no one is claiming that Liverpool are going down this season. Yet Arne Slot will be eager to avoid making that piece of the past. The team must get their domestic and Champions League campaigns on course quickly.

Eintracht Frankfurt's initial fixtures in this year's tournament both ended 5-1—a victory at home over Galatasaray and an loss on the road at Madrid. Liverpool, meanwhile, have beaten the team Frankfurt were beaten by, and been defeated by the team they won against. So, predicting this game is especially difficult.

The unpredictable fun begins at 8 p.m. BST. Kickoff is here!
