A significant investment has been made by the Football Club towards improving the site, which has led to crowds of more than 1,000 attending matches there.

The Club, in close co-ordination with the County FA, undertook an extensive redevelopment to make it suitable to bring the venue in line with Premier League and UEFA regulations.

Holmes Park's new facilities include an improved surface, alongside refurbished changing and medical rooms and the inclusion of stands for spectators.

Premier League International Cup

Porto have won the competition for the past two seasons.

Twelve teams from the Premier League 2 set-up and another 12 from Europe are invited, with the competition split into six groups of four. Group winners and two best-placed runners-up qualify. 

In the knockout stages, the ties are decided in one-off matches, with extra-time and then penalties required if the match is level after 90 minutes, while all matches are played in England.

Teams competing in the Premier League International Cup will be made up of Under-23 players, aside from a maximum of three outfield players and the goalkeeper.

This is only the second occasion in which City have made it past the group stage, following their run to the semi-finals in the 2014/15 season.
