BBC Sport is to broadcast Friday night’s Uefa European Under-21 Championship qualifier between Northern Ireland and England live on BBC iPlayer and the BBC Sport website and app.

The game will pit Tommy Wright’s Northern Ireland side against England interim manager Ben Futcher’s squad at Ballymena Showgrounds, with a 19:45 BST kick-off.

England were 3-0 winners when the sides met in their previous qualifying match at Goodison Park in November.

England currently sit second in Group F on 18 points, with six wins and a defeat from their opening seven qualifiers.

Northern Ireland are fourth in the group with two wins and four defeats from their six matches.

Former Northern Ireland international Stephen Craigan will join BBC Sport NI’s Thomas Kane on commentary from the county Antrim venue.
