How the Reds will start to play against Eintracht Frankfurt 🔴 #ChampionsLeague
Match Background
After losing four fixtures consecutively, the Reds are not exactly entering unknown territory. However, the last time the team lost five losses on the bounce was during 1953, with manager Don Welsh. This campaign resulted in relegation from the old First Division.
Now, no one is seriously suggesting that Liverpool are going down this season. Yet the manager is keen to avoid repeating that piece of the past. Liverpool need to get their domestic and Champions League seasons on course as soon as possible.
Eintracht Frankfurt's initial fixtures in this season's tournament finished 5-1—a victory at home over Galatasaray and an loss on the road at Madrid. Liverpool, meanwhile, have beaten the side Frankfurt were beaten by, and lost to the team they won against. Therefore, predicting this match is particularly challenging.
