Clarets to host international

Last updated : 03 May 2007 By Tony Scholes
Michael Owen - could make his international comeback at Burnley
Burnley and the FA have confirmed the game this morning and the game will be an opportunity for England boss Steve McClaren to give match practice to memers of his squad in the lead up to full internationals against Brazil and Estonia in June.

The game will kick off at 8:00 p.m., tickets are priced at £10 adults and £5 Concessions and go on sale tomorrow from the ticket office at Turf Moor. Group bookings can be made via the FA web site.

This is the build up game to the first ever international at Wembley against Brazil and a number of players could feature in this one who McClaren will look to use at Wembley. One player who could very well feature is Newcastle striker Michael Owen who has just returned to league action for the first time since suffering a cruciate ligament injury in last year's World Cup.

This will be England's 55th B international whilst we have played Albania four times at full level, winning on all four occasions, the last one at St James Park in 2001.
