The 18-year-old A-level student was stabbed to death at a bus stop in Eltham, south east London.
Gary Dobson, 35, and David Norris, 34, were arrested last September over the April 1993 murder and are in custody.
The allegations could not be reported until today for legal reasons.
The trial is due to take place in November at the Old Bailey, where a further hearing is due to take place in the next two months.
Norris, wearing a dark suit and tieless shirt, was at the Court of Appeal while Dobson was not present.
Some reporting restrictions surrounding the case remain in place.
A judge at the Court of Appeal said new evidence has come to light that justifies the quashing of Dobson's original acquittal.
The trial is due to take place in November at the Old Bailey, with a further hearing due to take place in the next two months.

This is the case I do not understand why it has taken so long to bring charges in court.
