Liverpool will start to play against Frankfurt 🔴 #UCL
Match Background
After losing four fixtures back-to-back, the Reds aren't quite heading towards unknown territory. But, the previous occasion the club suffered five consecutive defeats in a row was during 1953, with manager Don Welsh. This season ended in the drop from the old First Division.
Now, nobody's implying that the team face relegation now. But the manager is keen to avoid repeating that piece of history. Liverpool need to get their Premier League and Champions League seasons back on track quickly.
Eintracht Frankfurt's first two fixtures in this season's tournament both ended 5-1—a home win over Galatasaray and an away defeat at Madrid. The Reds, meanwhile, have beaten the team Frankfurt lost to, and lost to the one Eintracht beat. Therefore, predicting this match proves especially challenging.
This unpredictable action starts at 8 p.m. BST. It's on!
