Team news, predicted lineups, and key insights ahead of the Champions League match between Eintracht Frankfurt and Liverpool.
Eintracht Frankfurt is set to host Liverpool at Deutsche Bank Park in a match featuring two teams struggling for form. Frankfurt has experienced a downturn after a strong start to the season, managing only one win in their last five competitive matches.
The team began their Champions League campaign impressively with a 5-1 victory over Galatasaray; however, they suffered a heavy 5-1 defeat against Atlético Madrid in their second group match. This was followed by a 3-0 loss to Bayern Munich and a 2-2 draw with Freiburg, where a late free-kick from Vincenzo Grifo cost them a win.
Similarly, Liverpool has also seen a decline in performance, having lost their last four matches in all competitions, the latest being a 2-1 defeat to rivals Manchester United.
This match holds special significance for Florian Wirtz, who will face German opposition for the first time since his transfer from Bayer Leverkusen. The young midfielder is still seeking his first goal involvement with Liverpool and will be eager to make an impact.
In terms of team news, Eintracht Frankfurt might be without Elias Baum, but otherwise, they have no significant injuries. Liverpool, on the other hand, will be missing Alisson due to a hamstring injury, along with Giovanni Leoni (knee) and Stefan Bajcetić, while Wataru Endo is considered a doubt for the match.
Predicted lineups for the match are available for those interested in the formations both teams may employ.
