With the Euros a distant memory and the football season on pause, Soccer Aid is back to fill a void.
Former footballers, singers, actors, and more are set to take to the pitch on Saturday for another round of England versus World XI FC.
The big Soccer Aid game will take place at the Etihad, a change from last year's event at Old Trafford, and be broadcast live on ITV from 6.30pm with kick-off an hour later.
And while it is all about those 90 minutes of football magic, there will also be plenty of chat from host Dermot O'Leary with new touchline reporter Alex Scott and pundit Maya Jama.
Then it will be down to Manchester United legend to and UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador, David Beckham, to present the trophy to the winning team on the night.
So, who is on each time and who is it you should be cheering for on Saturday night?
