Soccer Aid is back on Sunday night and England will be hoping that the new location of Stamford Bridge will bring a change in fortunes, as they look to end the Rest of the World's five year unbeaten streak.

One of the biggest events in the charity calendar, Soccer Aid has raised a huge £90 million for UNICEF, since it was started by best mates Robbie Williams and Jonathan Wilkes back in 2006. For its first decade the event took place every two years but, since 2018 has become an annual fixture, usually happening at Manchester United's ground Old Trafford and airing on ITV.

It's all change for 2024 though, as the England and Rest of the World squads instead head to London to take to the pitch on Chelsea turf on Sunday, June 9.
