Stuart Pearce's England Under-21 side will play their European Championship qualifier against Bulgaria on Nov 16 at Milton Keynes.

Pearce's side have a 100 per cent record in Group Three after two away victories earlier this month, and they face Montenegro and Republic of Ireland in October before Bulgaria arrive for the game at the home of MK Dons.

"We are looking forward to playing at the impressive new stadium in Milton Keynes in what will be an important qualifier," said Pearce. "It's an excellent opportunity to take England around the country with the under-21s and I hope people in the area will turn out in big numbers to support us."
