Match Background
Following losing four games in a row, Liverpool aren't quite heading towards unfamiliar ground. But, the last time the team suffered five defeats on the bounce was during 1953, with manager Don Welsh. That campaign ended in the drop from the top flight.
Currently, no one is implying that Liverpool are going down now. But the manager will be eager to avoid repeating that bit of history. Liverpool need to get their Premier League and European campaigns back on track as soon as possible.
Eintracht Frankfurt's initial matches in this year's competition finished 5-1—a victory at home over Galatasaray and an loss on the road at Atletico Madrid. The Reds, meanwhile, have beaten the side Frankfurt lost to, and lost to the team they won against. Therefore, forecasting this game proves especially difficult.
This unpredictable action begins at 20:00 GMT. Kickoff is here!
