How the Reds are set up to face Eintracht Frankfurt 🔴 #UCL
Preamble
Following suffering four fixtures consecutively, Liverpool are not exactly heading towards unknown territory. However, the previous occasion the club suffered five losses in a row was during the 1950s, under manager Don Welsh. That campaign resulted in relegation from the first division.
Now, nobody's claiming that Liverpool are going down this season. But the manager is eager to prevent repeating that piece of history. The team must bring their Premier League and Champions League seasons moving positively quickly.
Frankfurt's initial matches in this year's competition both ended with a 5-1 scoreline—a victory at home over their opponents and an away defeat at Atletico Madrid. Liverpool, meanwhile, have beaten the team Frankfurt lost to, and been defeated by the team Eintracht beat. So, forecasting this match is especially challenging.
This unpredictable fun begins at 8 p.m. BST. It's on!
