Sidemen FC Takes On YouTube All Stars: Full Squads Revealed for Epic 2026 Charity Showdown

Sidemen FC Takes On YouTube All Stars: Full Squads Revealed for Epic 2026 Charity Showdown

The web's most popular content creators are returning for the annual Sidemen Charity Match, scheduled to take place before a packed house at Wembley Stadium this Saturday afternoon.

The event commemorates the 10th anniversary of the first-ever charity match. Over the years, the showdown between the Sidemen and YouTube All Stars has grown considerably, resulting in ever-increasing donations to charitable causes.

The previous year's event raised $6.4 million (£4.7 million) and drew over 90,000 fans in attendance, with another eight million tuning in remotely. Those viewers witnessed a wild 9–9 stalemate settled via penalty shootout, with iShowSpeed converting the decisive spot kick to hand the YouTube All Stars their maiden victory.

The online celebrities are once again descending on London, and a significant overhaul of the team lineups promises to make this the most fiercely contested Sidemen Charity Match to date.

Take a look at all the social media personalities stepping up for Sidemen FC this year, under the management of Jack Joseph:

Wondering where KSI, Miniminter and Behzinga are? The trio of Sidemen have switched sides this time around to heighten the competition.

"With this charity match, we thought we'd change it up. Normally, the Sidemen are in one team, and we're up against different players in YouTube All Stars," KSI told talkSPORT.

"But this time, three of us have moved to YouTube All Stars. So, me, Simon, Ethan are now in YouTube All Stars, whereas the rest are in Sidemen. It's going to be a lot more competitive, and it's going to be intriguing to see which goals the fans celebrate more and who people want to win."

Here are the headline names representing YouTube All Stars on Saturday, with Calfreezy at the helm:

KSI, Miniminter and Behzinga, who combined for two goals and three assists in last year's contest, now bolster an already formidable YouTube All Stars squad.

Are iShowSpeed, Logan Paul Playing in the 2026 Charity Match?

No, iShowSpeed and Logan Paul are not expected to appear in the 2026 Sidemen charity match. The pair are set to compete at WrestleMania 42 on Saturday night in Las Vegas.

Paul and iShowSpeed are joining forces with Austin Theory to face the Usos & LA Knight. The bout will mark iShowSpeed's debut inside the wrestling ring.

In theory, both stars could fly to Wembley for a brief appearance before their wrestling bout given the time zone difference, but neither is listed on either team's roster.
