Players to watch

Team Chunkz x Speed: Andreas Iniesta

Andreas Iniesta is set to be in the lineup for this charity game and the fans in the stadium will be looking to get a glimpse of his magic on the pitch. The former Barcelona star recently announced his retirement but still boasts enough fitness to play this game and his addition to the lineup will further make the match entertaining along with other star players.

Team KSI x AboFlah: Thierry Henry

It will be fascinating to see if Thierry Henry returns to the pitch for a friendly game. The former Arsenal forward used to wreak havoc during his playing career against opposition but he still knows how to cause problems for the opponents and will be hoping to entertain the fans in this game with his qualities.

Prediction

With a week of events that include fan interactions, more sports activations, live podcasts with well-known producers, and a live halftime musical performance on match day, the Match For Hope seeks to have an even greater impact.

The major objective is still to generate money for EAA in order to carry out its purpose of giving underprivileged children and youth in areas impacted by poverty, natural catastrophes, or armed conflicts access to high-quality education.

However, both sides will be looking to compete in the game with many star players taking the field in this game and we feel Team KSI x AboFlah appears to be strong in the paper and should win this game.

Prediction: Team Chunkz x Speed 3-5 Team KSI x AboFlah
