In the soap's usual slot this Friday (4th April) will be the UEFA Women's Nations League as England take on Belgium at Ashton Gate in Bristol.

The ITV soap usually airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, but fans shouldn't fret as there will be an hour-long episode airing tonight (Thursday 3rd April) to make way for the missing episode.

The football match airing in its place is both teams' third Group A3 match, with Seema Jaswal presenting ITV's coverage and analysis from Ian Wright and Karen Carney.

There are plenty of life-changing moments and drama on the horizon for the residents of Weatherfield, as Daisy Midgeley (Charlotte Jordan) and mum Christina (Amy Robbins) target Jenny Connor (Sally Ann Matthews) in a nasty catfishing ruse.

Meanwhile, Debbie Webster (Sue Devaney) suffers worrying symptoms and Kevin Webster (Michael Le Vell) clashes with Tyrone Dobbs (Alan Halsall) over their mischievous kids.
