Yes, yes, it’s the final day of the Euro qualifiers for the World Cup and, for the most part we know who should book tickets for North America next Summer and who ought to order a new couch from where to watch the games. But, final days, have a habit of being fascinating affairs full of fire, determination and occasional catastrophic mistakes.
What does that mean for you? If you’re reading this, it means you ought to get your fantasy football team in working order. There are prizes at stake, after all, that are set up in FootballCoin in free contests.
Here’s who you need on your fantasy football team and who you need to avoid.
Switzerland is often impressive in qualification phases. That’s much is true. The performance of the Swiss in the tournaments is, sometimes another matter.
However, the Swiss go undefeated in 2025 in their decisive match against Kosovo.
Breel Embolo and Dan Ndoye scored days ago in the Swiss convincing 4-1 victory against Sweden. Granit Xhaka remains very consistent. All are good picks, Embolo especially. Note that Remo Freuler should be unavailable for this game.
What about Kosovo? This is a plucky team. Their combative style of play has destabilised a lot of, technically superior sides. Victory in Slovenia at the weekend proved that. Fisnik Asllani is the main goal threat, in a game that could see plenty of those. The three man defence of Lumbardh Delova, Amir Rrahmani, and Albian Hajdari has done well. Still, I expect Switzerland to come out easy winners out of this.
Meanwhile, Sweden’s begun the rebuild process under Graham Potter. Recent form has been atrocious. But I think you might give Alexander Bernhadsson a chance. Slovenian defenders, Vanja Drkusic and Max Elsnik are worth considering as well.
Elsewhere, Greece could get a victory to help morale against Belarus. Christos Tzolis is in fantastic form recently and great pick for a midfielder position in your fantasy football team.
The real derby is of course that between evenly-matched Scotland and Denmark. The Danes need to avoid defeat on foreign ground to earn direct qualification.
Last week’s display against Belarus was worrying. However, players with international are plenty in this squad. Emile Hojbjerg, Mikkel Damsgaard and, even, Christian Eriksen can still do a job for the Danes. Good picks!
However, this feels like the sort of game where Scott McTominay, the ultimate clutch player could help secure a historic victory for the Scotts. Look, also to goalie Craig Gordon for a strong performance here.
If you’re looking to beef up your fantasy football side, an easy route to take is by picking Spain players. Their opponents, Türkiye, are in strong form, but, likely not a strong enough match. Mikel Oyarzabal, Martin Zubimendi and Fabian Ruiz are in excellent form.
Finally, North Macedonia will hope that victory, and a miraculous display from Liechtenstein against Belgium could secure them a place to the North American World Cup. Dreams are the last to die. But it means that midfielder Enis Bardhi and goalie Stole Dimitrievski will be the Macedonians’ best chance at keeping those alive.
However, I am backing Wales in this game. The team’s motivated, knows it needs victory, and has the likes of Daniel James and Neco Williams bringing their EPL experience to the table. Youngster Dylan Lawlor has proven to be
the breakout star and deserves your attention.
