The Deva Stadium is an association football stadium spanning the Wales–England border in the United Kingdom, that is the home of Chester F.C., the effective successor club to the liquidated Chester City F.C. The name Deva comes from the original Roman name for the fort Deva Victrix, which became the city of Chester, in North West England. The Deva Stadium replaced Sealand Road.
Wiki- Cardiff City Football Club is a Welsh professional football club based in Cardiff, Wales. The club is currently playing in the Football League Championship (Which means that they are relegated from the FA but can come back if they win the championship). It plays its home games at the Cardiff City Stadium.

The border England-Wales runs through the stadium's ground, and crosses Bumper's Lane.
