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.
