It has been confirmed that Bolton Wanderers will stage the away leg of their UEFA Cup tie against Lokomotiv Plovdiv in the city of Bourgas.

The first round, second leg tie will be played at the Naftex Stadium on Thursday, September 29, with the kick-off time yet to be confirmed.

Plovdiv have already played a European tie at that venue as the stadium in their city does not meet the necessary requirements to stage such an event.

Bolton will be allocated just 910 tickets for the game but the club are hopeful that this number can be increased to allow a larger number of Brits to make the trip to Bulgaria.
