STAR FOOTBALL PREVIEW Weds: Frankfurt v Liverpool

Liverpool will be hoping to stop the rot in Germany on Wednesday night when they take on Frankfurt in the Champions League, writes JOE CITRONE.

Are Liverpool approaching crisis point? It certainly felt like that a bit after the Reds’ crushing defeat to the old enemy Manchester United at the weekend, with Harry Maguire delivery the crucial blow in a 2-1 win at Anfield.

That is now four straight defeats for Arne Slot’s men, a run of form we haven’t seen from Liverpool in such a long time. It is now up to Slot to prove that he can thrive when things are going against him and his team, and not just when the going is good.

Frankfurt were left frustrated in their most recent Bundesliga outing when a late goal denied them victory against Freiburg, with Dino Toppmoller’s men having to settle for a 2-2 draw at the Europa-Park Stadion.

Despite Liverpool’s recent issues, I highly doubt that they way they’d want to try and bounce back from that disappointment would be with a clash against last season’s Premier League champions.

Liverpool are a wounded animal at the moment after that bruising run of four consecutive defeats in all competitions, and that could arguably make them more dangerous coming into this important fixture in the Champions League.

Considering Frankfurt’s recent defensive issues, which recently saw them concede four against struggling Monchengladbach and then five against Bayern Munich in their following game, I do think Liverpool could fill their boots here if they are able to click back into gear.

At 11/10 with starsports.bet, I fancy over 2.5 Liverpool goals.
