Our Prediction for Frankfurt vs Liverpool
Liverpool travel to Deutsche Bank Park looking to reassert their European credentials after a narrow defeat to Chelsea, while Eintracht Frankfurt aim to bounce back from their own setback against Bayern Munich. The Champions League group stage is shaping up to be fiercely competitive, but Arne Slot’s side have the experience and firepower to prevail.
Prediction: Liverpool to win 3–1.
Eintracht Frankfurt Form Analysis
Eintracht Frankfurt have impressed going forward this season, scoring freely under Dino Toppmöller, though defensive consistency remains an issue. Their 5–1 victory over Galatasaray on matchday one was followed by a defeat to Atletico Madrid, showing both their potential and vulnerability.
Jonathan Burkardt leads the line with energy and clinical finishing, while Can Uzun and Farès Chaïbi provide creativity from midfield. Arthur Theate and Robin Koch form the defensive core, but they will be severely tested by Liverpool’s attack.
Injuries: Elias Niklas Baum (defender) and Jessic Ngankam (forward)
Liverpool Form Analysis
Liverpool remain one of the most dangerous sides in Europe despite their recent dip. The Reds have won four of their last six matches in all competitions, including impressive performances against Atletico Madrid and Galatasaray in earlier rounds.
With Alisson Becker sidelined, Giorgi Mamardashvili continues in goal. The defence, anchored by Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konaté, has been solid, while Dominik Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Allister have added technical precision in midfield. Up front, Mohamed Salah remains the main threat, supported by Cody Gakpo and Ryan Gravenberch, with Alexander Isak offering a strong focal point in attack.
Injuries: Alisson (goalkeeper) and Giovanni Leoni (defender) are out.
