Liverpool line up to face Eintracht Frankfurt 🔴 #UCL
Match Background
Following suffering four games consecutively, the Reds are not exactly entering uncharted waters. However, the last time the club suffered five consecutive losses on the bounce was back in 1953, under manager Don Welsh. This season ended in the drop from the old First Division.
Currently, no one is seriously suggesting that Liverpool face relegation this season. But the manager will be eager to avoid repeating that bit of the past. The team need to bring their domestic and European campaigns moving positively as soon as possible.
Frankfurt's first two fixtures in this season's competition finished 5-1—a victory at home over their opponents and an loss on the road at Atletico Madrid. The Reds, meanwhile, have beaten the team Eintracht lost to, and lost to the team they won against. So, predicting this match proves especially challenging.
The unpredictable action begins at 8pm UK time. Kickoff is here!
