Match Background
After suffering four games back-to-back, Liverpool aren't quite entering uncharted waters. But, the previous occasion the club suffered five consecutive defeats on the bounce was back in the 1950s, under manager Don Welsh. This campaign ended in relegation from the first division.
Currently, nobody's implying that the team face relegation this season. But Arne Slot is keen to prevent repeating that bit of history. Liverpool need to get their domestic and Champions League campaigns moving positively as soon as possible.
Frankfurt's first two matches in this season's competition both ended 5-1—a victory at home over Galatasaray and an loss on the road at Madrid. Liverpool, on the other hand, have defeated the team Eintracht were beaten by, and been defeated by the team Eintracht beat. Therefore, forecasting this game is particularly challenging.
