Euro 2020/21 Fantasy Football
Welcome to the FF247 hub for the Euro’s. As per our Champions League article this shall be the main place for the duration of the comp and will act more as a destination to gather and discuss it all, rather than being anything of particular fantasy use.

Alternatively you can simply update your UEFA Games App (the one you may have used for the CL) and it will show up as a dual purpose one with the Euros game on there.
The Rules
This game is exactly as per the CL one with in-game matchday-by-matchday substitutions and Capo changes available between each day.
We expect most of our league members will be au-fait with these rules but if you are unsure then simply ask in the comments below and somebody will always be on hand to explain further.
Or simply click here for the full explanation.
Hints, tips, squads, line-ups etc…
For once UEFA have actually made a pretty good job of this and so we won’t be bothering to post any of the above as articles as it is pretty much all there for you. They have the entire raft of squads posted on both their website and on their official App along with a run-down on every single team.
The FF247 League
We are not running a ‘public’ league for this one, we are keeping it in-house for the summer fun and as such we have our usual ‘Regulars League’. We did post the league code in the comments section previously but this has now disappeared. The good news is that the majority of our usual CL crew saw it and have already joined,
For anyone who didn’t then simply drop us an email on;
contact@fantasyfootball247.co.uk
All we ask if you enter the league is that you please keep the code to yourself and don’t divulge it to family or friends who do not frequent the site. This is for the FF247 Community who will be commenting and interacting on here and we would like to keep it that way. Ivan (The Terrible) will be keeping a watch and if you do then expect to be dealt with harshly!
There is always a bit of luck required when picking your initial squad because you can’t be sure who will play and which players will perform. We now have a full round of games to base our squads for MD2 and beyond. I don’t think the Limitless chip will be as valuable after MD2 because most teams can still qualify for the next round, all the teams are still involved and there are more games. In MD3 some teams may rest players and you get unlimited transfers before the round of 16. Once we get to the knockout rounds there won’t be as many mismatches. Once you use your Limitless chip your squad reverts to what it was before so not much point using it in the knockout rounds. So MD2 is ideal for using the LL chip.
Decided not to use Unlimited chip yet. Cost me 8ph so it sure how this will all pan out.
Am I good to go?
Would you gamble on Hazard or KDB? Trying to sort my unlimited team on holiday
Smash, I am considering Hazard, as I reckon he might start this week. I feel like KDB might get some minutes but would be more of a differential for MD3. All speculation though.
Enjoy your holiday
If KDB has trained I think he will come back in but not sure if he has
I think he is training with his team Smash, whether will get to start v DK is another thing though.
First, very raw, limitless draft. Not sure on anything, apart from triple France (haven’t decided on which 3).
Thoughts?
I got no Italian players. They are kinda expensive.
Decided to wing it and trust luck. My mildfield requires a few hits I rather not take yet.
The Torres gamble backfired. Didn’t learn my lesson never trust Spain.
Never mind I toke a 12 points hit. My mild field was pretty bad. Managed to bring in insighe and Yamelko.
And another Finland defender.
Now I am on the right track. If Yilmaz doesn’t deliver then he is out. He is only in cause I don’t want to take a 16 pts hit.
You might want to play a chip. A 12 ph seems a bit excessive!
Yeah I should of have. Oh well , I was in a rush XD.
At least I got a chip to fix my mess next match day
EPL fixtures announced
I can already see the template. Heavy on Man U, Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal for GW 1
And, then mass wildcarding in GW2
Now, back to Euro 2020
Less than 5 hours before the MD2 Deadline
Cheers ivan. Didn’t know this was out. Let’s not get to cought up on it but at a quick look I’ll be starting with 2/3 Villa players.
GW1. Watford (a)
Gw2. Newcastle (h)
Gw3. Brentford (h)
I’ll drop 1 from gw4
Wow, that makes sense Gavy.
I haven’t looked further than GW1 as they just came out this morning.
You are spot on, with those fixtures, 3 Villa and build around.
