THE SIDEMEN will host another massive charity game in front of their biggest crowd yet as they’ve sold out 90,000 seats at Wembley.
Boxer and YouTube sensation KSI headlines the Sidemen Charity Match alongside regular running mates.
This will be the SIXTH time this charity match is being played between Sidemen FC and the YouTube All Stars – but they have never dared to go to a stadium as big as the 90,000-capacity Wembley.
Previous matches have been held at St Mary’s (Southampton), the Valley (Charlton Athletic) – which has been their most regular choice having played there three times – and the London Stadium (West Ham).
YouTube Allstars have a poor record against Sidemen FC, only winning one of their previous five meetings losing four.
They’ll be hoping for a turn of luck in front of a raucous, sell out crowd.

Despite the one-sided history, these games never fail to entertain as they are nearly always due to be goal fests.
In the last two meetings alone, 28 goals have been scored – 8-5 in 2023 and 8-7 in 2022 – so fans are not going to want to miss out.
In the last match between these two, it broke the Guinness World Record for having the most viewers for a sports event live stream on social media and this year could have even more.
The top performers at these events are normally Miniminter with 10 goals in five appearances and Manny with six goals.

Money raised is in aid of Bright Side, Children in Need and M7 Education.
