Directions:
Head towards Chester and then the A55, M53 & M56 to Jct 12 Runcorn, crossing the Runcorn Bridge before taking the A557 through Widnes and onward to the M62.
Cross over the motorway and follow the A57 to Rainhill and then into Prescot.
In Prescot, go through traffic lights (A58) at the Fusilier pub, 100 yards further on turn right at the Hope and Anchor pub into Hope Street.
The football ground will be in sight at bottom of road.
This is how the AFC Liverpool website is building up the game:
The U18's management team of Russ Higgins, Sean Rogers and Dave Innelli are calling on the support of all AFC Liverpool fans for this massive game, as it will be a big boost for the lads to have the same tremendous vocal support that the AFC faithful provide for the first team.
Russ Higgins said: "This will be a big night for the club. We would love all the fans to be part of it and I am sure it will be interesting for the fans to have a look at some of the young talent that is coming through the youth system.
"We would love all the fans to stand in the kop, bring your scarves and banners, and sing your hearts out on the night to help us through the game and hopefully pull off an upset.
"We would love the game to have the same atmosphere as a first team game, as not only will it help us on the night, but will also be great experience for the lads who will hopefully push for places in the first team over the next couple of years."
Another intriguing twist to the match is that Wrexham are managed by Liverpool legend and AFC Liverpool club patron Joey Jones.
Joey is a great friend of AFC Liverpool and recently helped raise money for the club when he spoke at a Sportsman's Night, so it will be great to welcome him to Valerie Park in front of a big crowd.
