Midfielders Ryan Gravenberch and Florian Wirtz, along with forward Alexander Isak, are available after participating in the World Cup.

Historically, Liverpool have won 11 of their 21 meetings with Wrexham, while Wrexham have claimed eight victories. Two matches ended in draws, *The Standard* reported.
