The annual charity match, that raises money for Unicef, sees England take on the rest of the world for a live show hosted by Dermot O’Leary and Alex Scott on ITV.

Asked why he’s managing the rest of the world team and not England, Harry confessed: ‘I don’t know! Can’t get to the bottom of it myself.
‘I managed England a few years.. If I could change I certainly would, will have to have a word with someone and see if I can change’.
The manager also spoke about working alongside Piers Morgan in the 2019 match, quipping, ‘he quickly took over and I became his assistant’, to which Susanna joked, ‘I know that feeling!’
Meanwhile, Susanna is a lifetime Crystal Palace fan and is a patron for the football club’s Palace for Life Foundation.
The presenter was also in a relationship with Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parrish, 56, who she is rumoured to have reconciled with.
Susanna went public with Steve back in November 2018 when they were pictured at a Crystal Palace v Chelsea match.
They split just months later in April 2019 following a nine month relationship, as Susanna insisted they would remain good friends.
