Liverpool travel to Frankfurt for Wednesday’s Champions League clash in desperate need of a victory to arrest an alarming slump in form.
Arne Slot’s side have lost their last four consecutive matches across all competitions. Despite these recent struggles, the Reds possess a formidable record against German opposition in this competition. In fact, they have won their last five such encounters. Additionally, they have won on their last four visits to Germany.
However, manager Arne Slot must contend with a growing injury list. He also faces his own poor personal away record in the Champions League as he seeks a vital three points.
Arne Slot faces a deepening injury crisis ahead of the trip to Germany. For instance, goalkeeper Alisson Becker remains unavailable. Therefore, Giorgi Mamardashvili will start again between the posts. The midfield is particularly hard-hit. Ryan Gravenberch is a major doubt after twisting his ankle against Manchester United. Furthermore, Wataru Endo and Stefan Bajčetić are also likely to miss out. Consequently, this situation could mean starts for Curtis Jones and Alexis Mac Allister.
On a positive note, Hugo Ekitike returns from suspension. The team expect him to lead the line tonight. Mohamed Salah will also be crucial in attack. He is aiming to become the first African player ever to score 50 Champions League goals.
Liverpool predicted XI: Mamardashvili; Szoboszlai, Konaté, Van Dijk, Robertson; Jones, Mac Allister; Salah, Wirtz, Gakpo; Ekitike
