European nights rarely disappoint — and this one has all the drama. Eintracht Frankfurt hosts Liverpool in a clash between two sides desperate to rediscover their rhythm.
Frankfurt started their UEFA Champions League campaign in style with a thumping 5-1 win over Galatasaray, but the mood quickly soured after a 5-1 defeat to Atlético Madrid and a 2-2 Bundesliga draw with Freiburg. With just one win in five games (D1, L3), Oliver Glasner’s men return home searching for a spark — and their record of four consecutive European home wins suggests this could be the place to find it.
Liverpool, meanwhile, is enduring a nightmare under new boss Arne Slot. The Reds’ 2-1 loss to Manchester United made it four defeats in a row, their worst run since 2014. Slot himself has never suffered four straight losses in his managerial career — pressure doesn’t come heavier than this. Yet, Liverpool’s pedigree in Europe remains elite: they’ve won 13 of their last 15 Champions League group games.
⚔️ Head-to-Head and European Form
- Record: Liverpool leads with one win and one draw from two meetings.
- Against German clubs: Liverpool are unbeaten in 14 matches (W11, D3).
- Frankfurt at home vs English clubs: Strong record — only two defeats in nine (W3, D4).
That history makes one thing clear — Liverpool rarely loses to Germans, but Frankfurt rarely loses in Germany to the English. Something has to give.
📊 Hot Stats and Betting Trends
🔥 Frankfurt’s attack never sleeps: Only one of their last 67 European games ended goalless.
💥 Goals galore: 11 of their last 12 matches produced over 3.5 goals.
🔴 Liverpool’s streak: No draws in their last 28 UCL group matches (W23, L5).
