Leeds United`s Elland Road ground will host England`s final warm-up game ahead of the World Cup finals this summer.

England will face Costa Rica on Thursday 7th June (8pm) ahead of travelling to Russia for their first group game against Tunisia on Monday 18th June.

It will be the third time that England have played at Elland Road. The first time was in 1995 as England prepared for hosting the European Championships in 1996 with Elland Road hosting some of the group games. England drew 3-3 against Sweden.

England`s other game at Elland Road was a 2-1 defeat by Italy in 2002 during the redevelopment of Wembley Stadium.
