The betting odds favor the Sidemen in September 9 charity match at London Stadium

The Sidemen are all set for their biggest charity soccer match today, and even sports bettors are starting to take notice. The website SportsLens has shared official odds for the U.K. supergroup’s next clash with the so-called “YouTube All-Stars”.

The Sidemen — KSI, Miniminter, Zerkaa, TBJZL, Behzinga, Vikkstar123, and W2S — have defeated the YouTube All-Stars in three of their four previous meetings. SportsLens factored that history into its odds by establishing the Sidemen as the betting favorites. A draw is a 5-1 shot, and the YouTube All-Stars have 7-2 odds to break their losing streak.

SportsLens has also set an over-under for the total number of goals that will be scored during the match. The line is at 8.5, and the over definitely favors the Sidemen. They’ve rippled the net at least seven times in all three of their charity match wins, and the YouTube All-Stars’ only victory was a 2-0 squeaker in 2017.

The 2023 charity match, set for September 9, will bring some new twists to the annual event. Previous matches were held at The Valley, the home of professional squad Charlton Athletic. This year, the venue has shifted to the 62,000-seat London Stadium, which will be filled to the brim with Sidemen aficionados.

The latest YouTube All-Star team may not be the strongest squad in terms of athletic skills, but it is one of the greatest-ever collections of digital talent. Luminaries like MrBeast, iShowSpeed, Kai Cenat, xQc, Karl Jacobs, and Airrack are expected to suit up for the ballyhooed match. Win or lose, their exploits on the pitch will benefit organizations like Rays of Sunshine, the Teenage Cancer Trust, and the Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM).

The Sidemen have become one of the most successful YouTube groups of all time by leveraging their engaging personalities to launch numerous offline ventures. The 2023 charity match will be streamed on the group’s official channel.

The 2022 charity match drew 2.6 million concurrent viewers and raised £1 million for its partner organizations. Based on the hype surrounding the 2023 follow-up, the September 9 showdown could be the Sidemen’s biggest event to date. You’ll have to tune in to see if the match lives up to the hype.
