England Under-21s v Portugal / France

Competition: Under-21 Internationals

Fixture Date: 13/11/26 & 16/11/26

England Under-21s host both Portugal and France in the space of four days in an international double-header in Bristol this November.

Head Coach Lee Carsley’s side secured qualification for next summer’s UEFA Under-21 EURO Finals with victory over Kazakhstan, and a draw with Slovakia, to top their group table. 

The Young Lions will hope to defend their title for a third successive time but will want to fine-tune their preparations at Ashton Gate when they host Portugal on Friday 13th November, before welcoming France to the same venue three days later on Monday 16th November.

The nation’s rising stars previously played at the home of Bristol City in October 2024, when they beat Azerbaijan 7-0.

Packed with exclusive features and interviews from across the squad, this 36-page official matchday edition to cover both fixtures can be pre-ordered by the FA’s matchday publishers Ignition Sports Media.

The saddle-stitched B5 issue can be pre-ordered for £3, plus post and packaging to a UK address, and will be despatched on Friday 13th November. This is not a pre-event delivery service and orders can take up to five working days to arrive.

Overseas deliveries will incur an increased P+P charge, which will be calculated based on the delivery address provided.
