Leyton Orient's eagerly-anticipated FIFA 20 'UltimateQuaranTeam' tournament is set to get underway on Sunday evening.
Described as a "genius" idea by first-team boss Ross Embleton, the competition - the brainchild of Orient media staff Luke Lambourne and Dan Walker - is a PS4 tournament featuring 128 teams from across the globe, each of whom will be represented by one specific person.
As well as providing welcome relief and some form of football fix amid the current coronavirus pandemic, the event will also raise funds for the EFL clubs hit hard financially by the ongoing suspension of elite football in England due to Covid-19.
When does it start?
The UltimateQuaranTeam competition is scheduled to get commence today (Sunday, March 22), with some form of opening ceremony beginning at 5pm GMT.
That will be followed by the first game of the tournament, which sees Orient - represented by goalkeeper Sam Sargeant - battle Russian outfit Lokomotiv Moscow.
Other footballers scheduled to represent their respective clubs include Crystal Palace winger Andros Townsend, Norwich attacker Todd Cantwell and Brighton frontman Neal Maupay.
Orient have encouraged footballers and fans to take part primarily, but there are no restrictions on professional eSports players getting involved.
How to watch
Orient will be showing matches via video live streaming service Twitch, and say they have encouraged other clubs to do the same.
How much money has been raised?
At the time of writing, the UltimateQuaranTeam JustGiving fundraising page showed that almost £29,000 had been raised so far.
The overall target stands at £50,000, with Orient pledging to give 75% of donations to the EFL within 28 days.
The remaining 25% is set to be split between mental health charity Mind and the World Health Organisation's (WHO) Covid-19 Solidarity Response Fundraiser.
