Chattanooga FC Academy players have a special opportunity to see their parent club CFC take on English Premier League players. Tickets have been reduced to just $5 as a way to thank the fans for their support.

Middlesbrough FC will send its U21 squad to Chattanooga this week for a friendly with CFC on Wednesday, July 27. 

It will mark the first time that a development team from the EPL has played CFC.

Middlesbrough's first team just won promotion to the Premier League, considered one of the world's best leagues, after a seven year absence.

"This really is a thrill" said Sean McDaniel, General Manager for Chattanooga FC.

"Middlesbrough have been around since 1876! They have a storied history, they've won some big trophies in England over the years, and we are ecstatic that they will be coming here. We expect a huge turnout and a great atmosphere."

Tickets to the International Friendly have been reduced to $5.
