Fantasy Football Serie A is where it all started and, in some ways, remains the purest form of fantasy sports gaming.
Picking the right players for your fantasy football team remains a pursuit of great skill and a matter of keeping your ear to the ground.

These Are the Players You Need for Fantasy Football Serie A (Fantacalcio) Team for Round 6
Juve – AC Milan grabs most of the headlines ahead of Round 6. The extra weight of expectation should also enhance the performances of some of the team’s players.
If you can afford it, you’ll find it difficult to look past Luka Modric and Adrien Rabiot, who have immediately improved the midfield line of this Rossoneri side. The former, along with Christian Pulisic, are the top performers in terms of points in FootballCoin for Milan this season.
I like Pierre Kalulu and Kelly Lloyd, but it really remains to be seen how this Juve defence handles this calibre of opposition.
Parma needs to take full advantage of this home game against Lecce. Maybe you should as well. There’s a growing excitement over 23-year-old striker Matteo Pellegrino. I’m told that he’s also become the penalty taker for the team.
Meanwhile, a clean sheet should also positively affect the score of the keeper Zion Suzuki or defenders like Alessandro Circati.
Napoli got off to a slow start in the previous season and ended up winning the Scudetto. No need to worry just yet! Furthermore, plenty of Antonio Conte’s players made great additions to any successful fantasy football side last year.
Napoli, certainly, should be aiming to win against Genoa. But where will the goals come from? Kevin de Bruyne is quietly becoming invaluable to this team. Meanwhile, Rasmus Hojlund, a Manchester United exile just like Scott McTominay, has just scored twice against Sporting in the UCL. Need any more convincing to get them into your fantasy football team?
Finally, I’m all in on Marco Silvestri. While Cremonese will fight for dear life against Internazionale, Silvestri has proved one of the best and most overworked goalies in Serie A this season. If you’re looking for a cheap option for your fanta team, know that Silvestri is free to pick in FootballCoin.
Are These the Fantasy Football Serie A Players to Avoid for Round 6?
Internazionale is beginning to find its stride. But 3-0 victory over Slavia Prague in mid-week doesn’t mean that manager Cristian Chivu isn’t willing to make significant changes to the squad.
Consider this when considering picking Yann Sommer, who’ll most likely make way for Josep Martinez. There are also doubts about Federico Dimarco, Yann Bisseck and veteran Francesco Acerbi.
Meanwhile, Juventus meet AC Milan in what’s been dubbed by the streets as “The Allegri Derby.” If you’re thinking about picking Francisco Conceicao, you may want to hold off for now. The same goes for Fikayo Tomori, who’ll likely be injured, and Pervis Estupinan, who is suspended.
Lastly, while both Rafael Leao and Christopher Nkunku sound like good ideas for your fantasy football selection, you’ll need to pick one, just as Allegri will have to do the same.
And, if you’re looking for an old star to bail you out, Alvaro Morata isn’t likely to be it. The former Real Madrid striker is struggling to adapt to the setup of this Como side. Travelling to Atalanta isn’t likely to make things any easier.
