Everton begin the defence of their Liverpool Senior Cup title with a trip to Litherland REMYCA on Wednesday evening.
The young Blues, who beat Preston Cables 3-0 in last season’s final, enter the competition at the quarter-final stage.
Everton are the most successful club in the history of the LSC with 46 titles, although the 2015/16 win was their first since 2007.
Litherland play their football in the North West Counties League Division One and enter Wednesday’s tie on the back of a 3-0 away win at Alsager Town last time out.
In the LSC first round, Litherland were 4-2 winners against St Helens Town.
