Lineup Announcement Liverpool line up to take on Frankfurt 🔴 #ChampionsLeague Pre-Match Context After suffering four games back-to-back, Liverpool aren't quite heading towards uncharted waters. But, the previous occasion the club lost five losses in a row was during 1953, with manager Don Welsh. This season resulted in relegation from the top flight. Now, nobody's claiming that Liverpool face relegation this season. But the manager is keen to avoid repeating that bit of the past. Liverpool must get their Premier League and Champions League seasons back on track as soon as possible. Frankfurt's initial fixtures in this year's tournament both ended 5-1—a home win over their opponents and an away defeat at Madrid. Liverpool, meanwhile, have defeated the side Frankfurt were beaten by, and lost to the one Eintracht won against. So, forecasting this match proves particularly difficult. The unpredictable fun begins at 8 p.m. BST. Let's go!
