While England is steeped in footballing history, the same, however cannot be said of The Three Lions' next opponents - Andorra.

Sandwiched between France and Spain and nestled high in the Pyrenees, Andorra is best known for its 176 ski slopes and duty-free shopping.

An estimated 11 million people visit the country's 181 sq miles every year, although not many of those make the trek to watch the national football team.

So what do we know about them?

The Andorran FA was set up in 1994 and joined UEFA and FIFA in 1996. Since then their record in UEFA Championships is played 18, lost 18, scored 4 with 46 goals conceded.

They play their home matches at the small but spectacular setting of Estadi Communal - a 1,299-capacity ground wedged in the mountains in the capital Andorra La Vella.

Their first international ended in a 6-1 defeat to Estonia on 13 November 1996 and they had to wait four years before taking the lead in a game - at home to Cyprus.

They won their first competitive match - a 1-0 victory over Macedonia in a 2006 World Cup qualifier, although they have tasted success in friendly action, their record win being 2-0 over both Albania and Belarus.

They are currently ranked 132 in the world, one place above Lesotho and just behind St Vincent and the Grenadines.

Andorra's best known player is goalkeeper Koldo, or Jesus Luis Alvarez de Leulate to give him his full name.

Recently voted their best ever player, Koldo admitted: "Any goalkeeper who plays for Andorra is going to stand out, because you have a lot of work to do."

England fans will hope the same applies at Old Trafford on 2 September.
