How the Reds will start to face Frankfurt 🔴 #ChampionsLeague
Preamble
After suffering four matches consecutively, Liverpool aren't quite heading towards uncharted waters. However, the last time the team suffered five losses on the bounce was back in the 1950s, under manager Don Welsh. That campaign ended in relegation from the old First Division.
Currently, nobody's claiming that Liverpool face relegation now. But Arne Slot is eager to prevent repeating that bit of history. The team need to bring their Premier League and European campaigns back on track as soon as possible.
Frankfurt's first two matches in this year's competition both ended 5-1—a home win over their opponents and an loss on the road at Atletico Madrid. Liverpool, on the other hand, have defeated the team Frankfurt were beaten by, and lost to the one they beat. So, forecasting this game proves especially difficult.
