Soccer Aid 2024 full teams and lineups and who is playing for England and the World XI

The stars of stage, screen, and sport will once again be out in force as they take part in what is billed as the "world’s biggest charity football match". Of course, we're talking about the return of Soccer Aid and plenty of famous faces will be taking to the pitch this weekend, again for a good cause.

The England and World XI FC teams are set to go head-to-head once more and the competition is hotter than ever after the World side pushed ahead again last year with another win, meaning the overall stakes now stand at seven to five. So will they extend their lead or will England claw it back to a level playing field?

There's a change in venue this year as the 2024 charity match will be at the home of Chelsea FC, Stamford Bridge, after it was last year hosted at Old Trafford, aka the Theatre of Dreams, aka the home of Manchester United.

Off the pitch, UNICEF UK Ambassador Dermot O’Leary returns as the event's presenter and will be joined by former footballer-turned-pundit and presenter Alex Scott.

Those who haven't got their hands on tickets will be able to watch all the action unfold on ITV and ITVX on Sunday, June 9. The match will kick off at 7.30pm though the show starts a little earlier at 6pm with plenty of build-up to the big match.

And as ever, Soccer Aid will be raising vital funds for UNICEF to help with its mission of providing vaccines, tackling malnutrition and protecting children in times of crisis, such as war and other disasters.

Since its creation in 2006, by singer Robbie Williams and entertainer Jonathan Wilkes, Soccer Aid has raised more than £90 million for the humanitarian children's charity. This year the Children's Investment Fund Foundation will double every donation made to Soccer Aid for UNICEF, up to £4 million. The money raised will help children get the nutrition they need to grow up healthy, strong and able to play.

Here's a look at the teams ahead of the big match:
