How the Reds line up to play against Eintracht Frankfurt 🔴 #ChampionsLeague
Preamble
After suffering four games back-to-back, the Reds aren't quite heading towards unknown territory. However, the last time the club lost five losses on the bounce was during the 1950s, with manager Don Welsh. That campaign resulted in relegation from the old First Division.
Currently, nobody's seriously suggesting that the team are going down this season. Yet the manager will be keen to avoid repeating that bit of the past. Liverpool must get their domestic and European campaigns moving positively as soon as possible.
Eintracht Frankfurt's first two matches in this year's tournament both ended 5-1—a home win over their opponents and an loss on the road at Madrid. The Reds, on the other hand, have defeated the side Eintracht lost to, and lost to the team they beat. Therefore, forecasting this game proves especially challenging.
The unpredictable fun starts at 8pm UK time. Let's go!
