Baros joins Dudek in the cold
Rafael Benitez has made only one change from the squad that beat TNS 3-0 in the first leg of the Champions League first qualifying round tie, with Spanish international Luis Garcia coming into the 18-man party in place of Milan Baros.
Polish goalkeeper Jerzy Dudek, who along with Baros played in Saturday’s friendly victory over Bayer Leverkusen, has missed out again.
Benitez and the squad flew back to Britain from Switzerland today and will return to their training camp on Wednesday morning. Benitez is likely to give the likes of Scott Carson, Djibril Cisse, Dietmar Hamann, Josemi and Boudewijn Zenden – all substitutes in the first leg – a chance from the start at Wrexham tomorrow. Stephen Warnock, who needed an X-ray after damaging an elbow against Leverkusen, is also included in the squad.
Team (from): Reina, Carson, Finnan, Hyypia, Carragher, Riise, Warnock, Josemi, Gerrard, Potter, Zenden, Luis Garcia, Hamann, Whitbread, Alonso, Cisse, Morientes, Le Tallec.
