Notts County’s Meadow Lane is to host England’s women’s side for their final home Euro 2017 qualifier.
The Lionesses, who are aiming to top their group, will play Estonia at the ground on Thursday, September 15.
It is the first time England women have played at Notts County, and will see several players including Magpies captain and England defender Laura Bassett in a three lions shirt on home turf.
Bassett said: “Meadow Lane is a fantastic stadium and I can’t wait to go there with England.
“There is a real support for and interest in women’s football in Nottingham. Hopefully having an international match here will help us to build on that and that we attract a good crowd too.
“We’re determined to top this qualifying group to give ourselves the best possible chance of success at next summer’s tournament as well as getting a win in front of our supporters in our last home qualifier.”

Matthew Alexander, chief executive of Notts County Ladies, said: “It’s an honour for Notts County Ladies Football Club to be able to welcome the national side to our stadium.
“Domestically, we have one of the highest attendances in the League and this is a fantastic opportunity to get the fans into Meadow Lane and demonstrate the support that the city of Nottingham has for women’s football.”
Nottingham was named the first ever City of Football in September 2014 by Sport England and received £1.6m to get more people in the area playing football regularly.
The pilot scheme also has particular focus on encouraging more girls and women to play football, along with promoting local women’s teamd.
England have already qualified for next summer’s tournament, which will take place in Netherlands, after beating Serbia 7-0 in Stara Pazova in June.
The Estonia game will kick off at 7.05pm and tickets are available direct from the FA and by calling 0115 955 7210.
