Stuart Pearce's England youngsters will start as favourites for the friendly but Collison believes the hosts will be motivated by rivalry.

Brian Flynn's side are also in confident mood after defeating France earlier in the season.

Collison, 19, said: "I know it is an end-of-season game but it won't feel like that. There is no chance of treating it like a friendly."
