Liverpool's manager has made five changes to the starting lineup following the loss to Manchester United over the weekend.

Ekitike, Curtis Jones, and Frimpong—each of them added energy as replacements in the last game—are also included in the starting eleven, together with Robertson. Kerkez, Bradley, and Mac Allister are on the substitutes' bench, while Gravenberch is unavailable due to an knock.

Pre-Match Context
Following suffering four games consecutively, Liverpool are not exactly heading towards unknown territory. But, the last time the team lost five defeats in a row was during 1953, under manager Don Welsh. That campaign resulted in relegation from the top flight.
Currently, no one is seriously suggesting that the team face relegation now. Yet Arne Slot is keen to prevent making that piece of history. The team must bring their domestic and European seasons back on track as soon as possible.
Eintracht Frankfurt's first two matches in this season's tournament both ended 5-1—a victory at home over their opponents and an away defeat at Atletico Madrid. Liverpool, meanwhile, have defeated the side Frankfurt lost to, and lost to the one Eintracht beat. Therefore, forecasting this match proves especially difficult.
