When is Soccer Aid 2023? Date, kick-off time, tickets and line ups

Soccer Aid is set to return this weekend as celebrities and former footballers come together for the showpiece charity match in aid of UNICEF.

The annual event is being hosted at Old Trafford and 74,000 spectators are expected to be in attendance. Ex-England international and I’m a Celebrity… winner Jill Scott will captain the Three Lions against Usain Bolt’s Soccer Aid World XI.

The star-studded squads include famous faces from the world of acting, music and more as the 12th edition of Soccer Aid prepares to take place. Football fans will also be treated to seeing the likes of Roberto Carlos, Frncesco Totti and Gabriel Batistuta return to the pitch, with United contingent Gary Neville, Paul Scholes and Nicky Butt forming part of the England squad.

The last four Soccer Aid matches have been won by the World XI, with last year’s game decided by Lee Mack in a penalty shootout after playing out a 2-2 draw. New Chelsea boss Maurico Pochettino and Line of Duty star Martin Compston will be managing the World XI, while Harry Redknapp, Chelsea manager Emma Hayes and Stormzy will be in the England dugout.
