When is Sidemen Charity Match 2023? Date, kick-off time today, who is playing, how to watch and live stream

The annual Sidemen Charity Match takes place at the London Stadium today,

Last year’s game was held at The Valley in Charlton and raised £1million for charities, with Sidemen FC coming out on top with a thrilling 8-7 victory.

It is hoped that an even bigger sum of money will be raised this year - Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM), Teenage Cancer Trust and Rays of Sunshine are among the causes that will benefit from this weekend’s latest Sidemen Charity Match.
