1. GOOD OMENS! This is just the second time in history that Man. United meet Chelsea in the semi-final stage of the FA Cup – the first was back in 1995-96, and The Red Devils won 2-1 before going on to lift the famous trophy. United fans would absolutely love for history to repeat itself 24 seasons later! 2. BLUES’ BOGEY SIDE! The Red Devils’ recent record against Chelsea has been awesome – they’re on a six-match unbeaten run in all competitions against them! They’ve already beaten Frank Lampard’s team three times in 2019-20, including in the EFL Cup fourth round, and have scored eight goals to Chelsea’s one! 3. GOALS GALORE! Man. United have scored more goals than any of the semi-finalists en route to this stage – they’ve…

1. GUNNED DOWN! Man. City fans absolutely love facing Arsenal – they’ve beaten them in their last seven head-to-heads, and conceded just twice! On top of that, in six of their last seven meetings, City have managed to bust net three times – so they have a habit of putting goals past The Gunners! 2. REIGNING CHAMPS! Don’t forget that the FA Cup trophy currently belongs to City – they won it last campaign, hammering Watford 6-0 in the final! In fact, since losing to Wigan in the fifth round in February 2018, City have won their last ten FA Cup matches by an aggregate score of 37-4. They’ve been totally unstoppable! 3. SIZZLING STERLING! Raheem Sterling grew up in the shadows of Wembley, so it’s always been a special…

PROMOTION RACE! MATCH is backing Leeds to clinch the Championship title just ahead of West Brom – and finally seal their long-awaited return to the Premier League after 16 years away! Brentford have been absolutely electric since the restart, scoring goals and winning games for fun, but they look like just falling short of the league’s second automatic promotion spot! PLAY-OFF FIGHT! Brentford have got to be the favourites to go up via the play-offs after playing themselves into hot form post-lockdown! Fulham and Nottingham Forest have basically secured their places in the play-offs, so they’re hoping to end the season strongly! Cardiff, Derby, Swansea, Preston, Blackburn, Millwall and Bristol City are still after that final top-six spot! RELEGATIONTROUBLES! Wigan were well safe before going into administration, so they’re playing…

1. WEMBLEY MEMORIES! Even though United are the most successful Premier League side in history at Wembley, they were beaten there in the 2018 FA Cup final – by Chelsea! It took a goal from ex-winger Eden Hazard to break the deadlock in that game, and Blues supporters will still have great memories of the clash! 2. FINE FORM! Chelsea’s win over Leicester in the last round was their fifth victory in a row in all competitions – they’ve been in fine form since lockdown ended, including beating Man. City in the PL! They also knocked out Liverpool earlier in the FA Cup, so they’ve proven they can beat anyone this season! 3. BUZZING BARKLEY! One of Chelsea’s best players in this year’s FA Cup charge has been Ross Barkley!…

LEICESTER v SHEFFIELD UNITED Thursday, 6pm The Foxes’ up-and-down recent form has put their top-four hopes on the line, so they need to find their consistency from earlier this year! We could say the same about Sheffield United, too – they were playing class before lockdown, but have had some really mixed results since June and could finally be running out of steam! CRYSTAL PALACE v MAN. UNITED Thursday, 8.15pm Man. United have been unstoppable since footy restarted, with Paul Pogba and Bruno Fernandes combining to set up Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford for loads of goals! One team that will feel confident they can stop them is The Eagles – they nicked a last-minute winner at Old Trafford when they met back in August! WEST HAM v WATFORD Friday,…

ITALY Juventus have got the upper hand in the Serie A title race, but next Monday there’s a chance for Lazio to claw themselves back into it – they travel to Turin to take on the reigning champs! A win will basically seal the title for Juve, so expect to see huge celebrations from the home side if they get a positive result! The other Champions League places in Italy look guaranteed to go to Inter and Atalanta, while there are three huge sides battling it out for two Europa League spots – Napoli, Roma and AC Milan. Game on! SPAIN The Spanish league comes to a close this weekend, with Real Madrid celebrating a quality season! They were actually behind Barcelona as footy restarted after lockdown, but managed to…
