CLUB CONFIDENCE! TRENT SAYS: “I don’t think, as a team, we need performances to give us confidence. We look around the dressing room, at the manager and the people we’ve got in the squad, and I think it just speaks for itself. Each game we have, we go into it wanting to win and kind of expecting to win. It doesn’t matter if we play Man. City or if we’re playing anyone else!” FA CUP FINAL! TRENT SAYS: “Yeah, it’s really good! The semi-final was a difficult game – with difficult opposition – so it was always going to be hard. But I think, in the first half especially, we were outstanding. We pressed them how we wanted to press and it was a really good performance from us!” SUPER…

HOW HE WON IT! MATCH scouts picked out the Prem’s best players from April and asked our fans on social media to vote for the best! The Red Devils’ ace finished above the likes of Gabriel Jesus, Kevin De Bruyne and Bruno Guimaraes! MEGA MOMENTS! Here’s whyCR7 was chosen as MATCH’s monthly winner! QUIETSTART! EVERTON 1-0 MAN. UNITED APRIL 9 It was a tough start to the month for both Man. United and Cristiano! Playing as alone striker, he was provided barely any service at all in the first half and cut a frustrated figure in the second. He was booked late on but thankfully it wasn’t a sign of things to come… HAT-TRICKHERO! MAN. UNITED 3-2 NORWICH APRIL 16 Ronaldo quickly put his poor performance v The Toffees behind…

No other side has reached as many finals in the same time period! ✓ Emma Hayes’ side are the tournament’s reigning champions after they defeated Arsenal 3-0 in the 2020-21 final thanks to goals from Fran Kirby and Sam Kerr! ✓ Mega classy England playmaker Fran Kirby has actually scored in both of The Blues’ last two FA Cup final appearances in 2021 and 2018! TEAM NEWS & LIKELY LINE-UP There’s so much quality in the Chelsea squad, it must be super tough for Emma Hayes to pick her starting XI every week! Lethal forwards Pernille Harder, Bethany England and Sam Kerr have scored eight goals combined this FA Cup…

MATCH’S TOP 20! Check out our league table after Gameweek 35! TRANSFER IN… Here are our biggest signing tips ahead of this fortnight’s action! ANTHONY GORDON MF★EVERTON £4.6 MILLION A double gameweek with two tempting home fixtures is followed by a tricky test v The Gunners – but Gordon could be worth the risk! KEVIN DE BRUYNE MF★MAN. CITY £11.9 MILLION We’re expecting KDB to explode over the final fortnight of Premier League fixtures, so you don’t want to miss out on a big haul! DEJAN KULUSEVSKI MF★TOTTENHAM £6.3 MILLION Tottenham end the season with games against Burnley and Norwich, so Deki is worth having even without a DGW!

Mitre FA Cup Final Football MATCH isn’t the only thing “pumped up” for this fortnight’s FA Cup final – the new Mitre official football is as well! The fizzin’ footy celebrates every club to have lifted the famous trophy since its first edition way back in 1872, while the red colours represent the iconic ribbons tied around the trophy. Only 150 balls were available to buy, so they’re a real collectors’ item! Price: £150 mitre.com New Balance Tri Aura Pack Rather than releasing tons of different colourways this season, New Balance have spent more time adding star talent to their sick squad in the likes of Raheem Sterling, Harvey Elliott and Bukayo Saka! They’ll all be changing into the Tri Aura Pack for the final month of action, with the…

CAPTAIN TOM CAIRNEY The Cottagers’ captain was out injured for ten months from December 2020 to October 2021, so it’s normal that he’s been a bit rusty this season! He’s still a real leader in the dressing room and has played over 40 Premier League games for the club in 2018-19 and 2020-21. They’ll need to draw on that experience! STAR MAN ALEKSANDAR MITROVIC Having the Serbia striker up front in the second tier has been like a cheat code for Fulham! He’s written himself into the history books this season by breaking Ivan Toney’s record of the most goals in a single Championship campaign. What’s even more impressive is that he reached Toney’s tally in 14 fewer games! GAFFER MARCO SILVA The Portuguese coach hasn’t had much luck in…

ARSENAL v EVERTON Arsenal gaffer Mikel Arteta spent six successful years at Everton as a player, where he came up against current Toffees manager Frank Lampard! This game will be their fifth meeting as Prem bosses in what’s also the most important managerial head-to-head of their careers! FIXTURE FACTS! ➲ Everton have won their last three head-to-heads v Arsenal, including a 1-0 win at the Emirates last season! ➲ These teams have over 200 red cards combined, making them the top two in Premier League history! BRIGHTON v WEST HAM The Hammers have had a whale of a time in Europe this season – and they can’t imagine life without it in 2022-23 either! They face a Brighton side who looked like European contenders at the start of the season,…

Hat-Trick is the combined name of Euro 2022’s three mascots–Robyn (No.10), Ashley (No.7) and Kai (No.4)! EachEuro2022 mascot is known for a special trait – Robyn (s kill), Ashley (strength) and Kai (smarts)! KAI, ROBYN OR ASHLEY? RACHELSAYS: “They’re all really exciting and I hope that comes across in the tournament! I would love to say that I relate to skill but that’s probably one of my weak points. I’d say that I’ve got a mixture of Kai and Ashley in me. I’d like to think I’m a smart player and, although I’m still working on my skills, I think I still have a balance of all three. You’re never too old to learn new skills, so hopefully I can learn something off the mascots!” ROBLOX GAME! RACHELSAYS: “It looks…
