Tranmere’s Prenton Park is to host Liverpool fixtures at U21 and U18 level.

The arrangement follows a commercial agreement between the clubs.

Liverpool U21s Barclays Premier Cup tie against Leeds United is to be staged at Prenton Park next Tuesday, January 19, with a 7pm kick-off.

There is also an agreement in place to stage Liverpool’s U18 FA Youth Cup tie against Cardiff City on Wednesday January 27, 7pm kick-off (awaiting FA permission).

Most Reds’ U18 league games will continue to be at Liverpool’s Academy in Kirkby but the U21s have been spending time at Chester and St Helens this year.

Tranmere have carried out stadium and pitch improvements since Mark and Nicola Palios bought control of the Wirral club in August 2014.

The investment into the pitch last summer has ensured the quality of the playing surface remains excellent in January, despite the poor recent weather.

Admission for Tuesday’s U21 match will be cash on the turnstiles with prices set at £3 adults and £1 for Under-16s.
