It's been a rough few weeks for both sides, and Wednesday's clash at Deutsche Bank Park feels bigger than it should this early in the Champions League season. Eintracht Frankfurt are wobbling, and Liverpool are almost unrecognisable.
The Bundesliga team will hope home advantage helps them steady the ship, while the Reds just need to stop the bleeding after their fourth straight defeat, a 2-1 loss to Manchester United . Earlier this month, they also fell short against Chelsea, a game remembered for Caicedo's thunderbolt and Estevo's late strike, as reported by Softfootball .
Frankfurt's form hasn't been much better. After smashing Galatasaray 5-1 in their Champions League opener, they were humbled by Atletico Madrid by the exact same scoreline. They have won just one of their last five matches and conceded at least twice in six of their previous seven. Still, their home form in Europe gives them a reason to believe-four straight wins in front of their fans could count for something.
