Preamble
After suffering four fixtures consecutively, the Reds are not exactly entering unknown territory. But, the last time the club suffered five consecutive defeats in a row was back in the 1950s, under Don Welsh. That season ended in the drop from the top flight.
Currently, no one is implying that the team are going down now. But Arne Slot will be keen to prevent repeating that bit of history. The team must get their Premier League and European seasons on course as soon as possible.
Frankfurt's first two matches in this season's tournament both ended 5-1—a victory at home over their opponents and an loss on the road at Madrid. Liverpool, meanwhile, have beaten the team Frankfurt lost to, and been defeated by the one Eintracht beat. Therefore, predicting this match proves especially challenging.
This exciting action starts at 8 p.m. BST. It's on!
