Liverpool will start to face Eintracht Frankfurt 🔴 #UCL
Pre-Match Context
Following suffering four fixtures consecutively, the Reds are not exactly heading towards unknown territory. However, the previous occasion the team lost five losses on the bounce was during the 1950s, under Don Welsh. This campaign ended in the drop from the top flight.
Currently, no one is seriously suggesting that the team face relegation this season. But Arne Slot will be eager to prevent making that bit of history. The team need to get their domestic and Champions League campaigns back on track quickly.
Frankfurt's first two matches in this season's tournament both ended with a 5-1 scoreline—a home win over their opponents and an loss on the road at Atletico Madrid. Liverpool, meanwhile, have defeated the team Frankfurt lost to, and been defeated by the one Eintracht won against. Therefore, predicting this game is especially challenging.
This exciting action begins at 20:00 GMT. Kickoff is here!
