Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (Arsenal) & Christian Oxlade-Chamberlain (Portsmouth)
While Alex progressed through the famed Southampton academy and moved on to Arsenal, younger Brother Christian is currently with The Saints fierce rivals Portsmouth. Christian most recently had a spell on loan at Salisbury and the 18 year old will be hoping to break into the Portsmouth first team in the near future. Hopefully a tasty FA cup tie could bring the two together.

Will Keane (Hull City) & Michael Kean (Burnley)
This Saturday Burnley and Hull City face each other in not only a Lancashire Yorkshire derby but also a Keane family derby. The twin brothers were both formally of the Manchester United youth academy but while Will was getting all the attention but not quite living up to the hype Michael was carving out some solid performances on loan in the Championship. Michael is now an important part of the Burnley squad while Will is looking to get himself back on track and show the world the talent he has. Watch out for a tough battle between the two this saturday. Not an easy one for the parents to watch.

| The Keanes At Manchester United |
As Victor was trying to make a name for himself playing in Belgium for Beerschot, brother Mcdonald was at Inter Milan setting the record as the first Kenyan to play in Champions league. Things have changed round quite a bit since then, after moving to Celtic Victor joined Premier League club Southampton and now plays for Tottenham and will be competing in the Champions League this season. McDonald is now playing in Serie B with Latina after spells at Real Sociadad and Parma. The chances of these two meeting on the field seem very slim now but there is always pre-season friendlies.

Ashley Young (Manchester United) & Lewis Young (Crawley)
Both graduates from the Watford academy the Young brothers careers have gone in very different directions. As we all know Ashley left Watford and had a successful four years with Aston Villa before moving to current Club Manchester United. Lewis on the other hand left Watford and signed for Burton Albion. Having had spells with Clubs such as Northampton and Yeovil, Lewis signed for Current club Crawly Town and seems to have settled well playing in either midfield or defence. As with the Oxlade-Chamberlain borthers a cup tie would provide the Youngs with the only chance to face off against one another.
