Liverpool travel to Germany on Wednesday aiming to halt an alarming four-match losing streak when they face Eintracht Frankfurt in the Champions League.
Arne Slot’s side have suffered consecutive defeats in league and European action. Conversely, Frankfurt possess a formidable home record in continental competition, setting up a vital matchday three encounter for both clubs.
Manager Dino Toppmöller benefits from a nearly fully fit squad for this game. In fact, only winger Elias Baum is currently unavailable. Jonathan Burkardt will be a key figure in attack. He has already been involved in three of Frankfurt’s four Champions League goals this season. Therefore, expect Frankfurt to field a strong side for this crucial home fixture.
In contrast, Liverpool manager Arne Slot is dealing with a significant injury crisis. Goalkeeper Alisson Becker remains out with injury. Consequently, Giorgi Mamardashvili will continue between the posts. Furthermore, midfielders Ryan Gravenberch and Wataru Endo are major doubts for the match. Stefan Bajčetić and Giovanni Leoni are also unavailable. On a positive note, striker Hugo Ekitike returns from suspension.
The German side have struggled for consistency recently, winning just one of their last five matches. After opening their Champions League campaign with a big win over Galatasaray, Atletico Madrid subsequently thrashed them 5-1. However, their home record in Europe is exceptional. Impressively, they have lost just one of their last ten group/league phase games at Deutsche Bank Park.
The Reds are enduring their worst run of form in years. Worryingly, they have lost their last four consecutive matches. This slump includes consecutive Premier League defeats and a shock Champions League loss in Turkey. Despite this poor run, Liverpool possess an excellent historical record against German teams. Specifically, they have won their last five encounters, including four straight away wins.
Eintracht Frankfurt predicted XI: Santos; Nissen, Koch, Amenda, Theate; Larsson, Chaibi; Knauff, Brown, Uzun; Burkardt.
Liverpool predicted XI: Mamardashvili; Szoboszlai, Konaté, Van Dijk, Robertson; Jones, Mac Allister; Salah, Wirtz, Gakpo; Ekitike
