Liverpool enter tonight’s clash against Eintracht Frankfurt under intense pressure, and manager Arne Slot is set to respond with bold changes to his starting lineup. After four consecutive defeats across all competitions, the Dutchman is expected to make several rotations — including some headline-grabbing omissions.
According to early reports, Mohamed Salah will start on the bench, with Slot opting to refresh his attacking setup. The Egyptian star has struggled for form in recent weeks, and the decision to rest him could be both tactical and psychological.
Another major change comes in midfield, where Ryan Gravenberch is expected to miss out entirely, making way for a more dynamic trio focused on pressing and energy. Slot is believed to be prioritizing control and intensity after the team’s recent lapses in transition.
In defence, Liverpool will feature a full-back swap, with Joe Gomez and Kostas Tsimikas likely to start in place of the usual pair. The move could provide much-needed defensive stability, while allowing the regular starters to recover from a grueling run of fixtures.
The match presents a crucial moment for several fringe players who are eager to prove their worth. Names like Harvey Elliott, Cody Gakpo, and Wataru Endo are all tipped for significant minutes as Slot searches for the right balance in his side.
With morale low and questions mounting, tonight’s encounter is more than just another Europa League fixture — it’s a potential turning point. Slot’s rotation could either reignite Liverpool’s spark or deepen the crisis further.
Kick-off: 8 PM at Anfield
