LIVERPOOL under-18s will  get the chance to gain  speedy revenge on  Wolverhampton  Wanderers after being  drawn at home against  them in the third round of  the FA Youth Cup.

Rodolfo Borrell’s side  lost 2-1 after a goal five  minutes from time gave  Wolves the points in the  FA Premier Academy  League on Saturday.  Liverpool will be keen to  make amends after being  handed a tie at Anfield  against the Midlanders in  Saturday’s FA Youth Cup  third round draw.

It will be the Spanish  coach’s first taste of the  prestigious youth  tournament since he took  over the running of the  U18s in the summer  reshuffle at the Kirkby  Academy.

But three-time winners  Liverpool have a fine  recent record in the Youth  Cup to defend. They won  the trophy back-to-back in  2006 and 2007. And they  were beaten finalists in  May while also reaching  the fifth round before  defeat to Sunderland last  year.

Several of last year’s  side who beat Leeds,  Bristol Rovers, Chelsea,  Bolton and Birmingham  City to reach the final  against Arsenal will still be  eligible for the U18s  competition this time  around.
