Can you work out who she is from 6 clues? Shout out as soon as you know, then hear the answer after the break.
This week, 2 listeners sent in voice notes. Luka, 8, plays striker or winger. His brother Finn, 4, loves being in goal, which is where Issy plays too. Luka's favourite players are Kylian Mbappé and Jude Bellingham, and Finn is a Mbappé fan too. We love hearing from you.
First, 2 results to settle in the predictions game: Chelsea 2-0 Manchester United, and Brighton 2-1 Crystal Palace in the Women's Super League. Issy had the exact score for the first and George for the second, so it is George 15, Issy 14.
Then this week's predictions: Nottingham Forest v Manchester City in the Premier League on Saturday 7 November, and Liverpool v Arsenal in the Women's Super League on Sunday 8 November.

Which of Arsenal, Tottenham and Chelsea has never won the Premier League? Which of Spain, England and Germany has never won the Women's Euros? Is the Ryder Cup a football trophy? This week's quiz is Odd One Out: we say 3 things, you pick the 1 that doesn't belong.
First, Issy tells George how her FA Cup first round game against AFC Wimbledon went. Then 2 results to settle in the predictions game: Chelsea 0-2 Tottenham at Stamford Bridge, and Brighton 3-0 West Ham in the Women's Super League.

Can a goalkeeper hold the ball for as long as they like? Can you score straight from a throw-in? This week's quiz is True or False, and it is the quickest one yet.
First, 4 results to settle in the predictions game: the Lionesses in Greece, Manchester United v Tottenham, Nottingham Forest v Arsenal, and Crystal Palace v West Ham in the Women's Super League. Issy called one of them exactly right, and after 16 matches it is level at the top: Issy 12, George 12.
Then 6 true or false questions about goalkeepers, throw-ins, red cards, the very first World Cup and the colour of the ball. Shout your answers, then hear how many you got.
Then the predictions: Chelsea v Tottenham in the Premier League, and Brighton v West Ham in the Women's Super League, both on Saturday 24 October.

Why are Arsenal called the Gunners? Why are Everton the Toffees? And who on earth are the Tricky Trees?
This week's quiz is Whose Nickname? Issy and George say 6 football nicknames and you shout the team: the Gunners, the Toffees, the Magpies, the Seagulls, the Lionesses and the Tricky Trees. Then they tell you where each name comes from, from a weapons factory in 1886 to a row of toffee shops.
This week's player is Désiré Doué of Paris Saint-Germain and France. He joined his first club at 5 years old, copied Neymar's tricks as a kid, and at 19 he scored 2 goals in a Champions League final. No teenager had ever done that before. The new Ultimate Football Heroes book about him is out on 22 October.
Then the predictions: Nottingham Forest v Arsenal at the City Ground, and Crystal Palace v West Ham United in the Women's Super League, both on Sunday 18 October. Next week Issy and George settle 4 matches at once.
