Cory & Nathan To Represent LCFC At ePremier League Finals
- Cory Wickwar and Nathan Bampoe-Parry will represent Leicester City at this weekend’s ePremier League finals
- The gamers were victorious at the Club’s play-off heats earlier this season
- Cory will take part in the PlayStation finals while Nathan will be competing on Xbox
The pair - who won the Club play-off heats to reach this stage - will battle it out with some of the world’s best EA SPORTS™ FIFA 23 players on Saturday and Sunday to win the title for the Foxes.
All 20 Premier League clubs will be represented, with two players from each club competing for the honour of ePremier League (ePL) Champion, and a share of the £100,000 prize pool.
The four competitors from the top-two clubs will also earn spots in the EA SPORTS™ FIFA 23 Global Series play-offs and play-ins.
Now into its fifth year, this season’s ePL finals will once again be hosted at Here East in London’s Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. The action will be televised in the UK on Sky Sports Premier League and shown across the League’s digital channels (YouTube, web, app and Facebook).
It will also be streamed on EA’s Twitch channel, plus Sky Sports’ YouTube platform and app.
Continuing the success of the 2021/22 competition, the format of this season’s finals will once again see club representatives working collaboratively. Finalists will take part in a series of 1 vs. 1 matches against pairings from other clubs, with one player competing per console (PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X | S), in a two-legged tie.
Clubs are split into four groups for Saturday’s matches, with the top two in each group progressing to Sunday’s knockout stages. The two victorious players in the overall final will win the honour of ePremier League Champions for their club.
