How the Reds line up to take on Eintracht Frankfurt 🔴 #UCL

Pre-Match Context

Following losing four fixtures consecutively, Liverpool aren't quite entering unfamiliar ground. But, the last time the team lost five consecutive defeats in a row was back in the 1950s, with manager Don Welsh. That season ended in relegation from the first division.

Now, nobody's seriously suggesting that the team are going down this season. But the manager is keen to prevent making that piece of history. Liverpool must get their Premier League and European campaigns back on track quickly.

Eintracht Frankfurt's initial matches in this season's tournament finished with a 5-1 scoreline—a home win over Galatasaray and an away defeat at Atletico Madrid. The Reds, meanwhile, have defeated the side Frankfurt were beaten by, and been defeated by the team they beat. Therefore, predicting this match proves particularly challenging.

This exciting action begins at 20:00 GMT. It's on!
