Sam Allardyce, Jose Mourinho up for Premier League Manager of the Month

Everton manager Sam Allardyce and Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho are up for April's Premier League Manager of the Month award.

The Blues head coach oversaw two draws and as many victories during the period in question, while Mourinho lost one match and guided his side to the final of the FA Cup.

The duo are up against Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola, whose team have been crowned league champions, Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson and West Bromwich Albion caretaker manager Darren Moore for their feats at the bottom end of the division.

Both Hodgson and Moore oversaw two draws and two wins during the month.

Last month, Burnley boss Sean Dyche picked up the accolade for March.
