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.
What you need to know
How to play?

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!
OK, the lineups for the first two games will be out in an hour.
Do we pick captain from the Ukrainian boys, maybe a Dutch one if you have any?
Or, is anyone gonna risk KDB, not knowing if he starts or not
Don’t think its worth the risk to go with KDB when he could be rested. Choosing between the two Ukrainians will be the headache for me!
Goldi, don’t know what to believe tbh. Everyone predicts that he will play.
” Martinez has warned Finland that Belgium will not put their foot on the brake tonight for their final Euro 2020 group game.
Belgium are already through to the knockout stages, but Martinez says that Kevin De Bruyne, Eden Hazard and Axel Witsel are set to play, while Romelu Lukaku could keep his place so he can stay in the hunt to be top scorer at the tournament.
Jan Vertonghen, Robern, Thomas Vermaelen and Toby Alderweireld will make up a strong-looking central defence, and Martinez said: “We’re here to try to be as good as we can, and that means you have to try to win every game.”
Finland can still reach the last-16 if they beat Belgium, but would also go through with a draw if Russia lose to Denmark”.
Hmm, maybe it is worth the risk then
Yep, I moved the armband to Kevin.
If that fails, one of Perisic, Muller, Kimmich or Gosens have to do it.
Do you think its worth swapping Donna (6) for Stekelenburg?
I don’t think it is.
CS (6) is great for a GK
Unless, you think that Stekelenburg will save a penalty from Pandev.
North Macedonia v Netherlands
Wijndal not even on bench.
What was I thinking
didnt pick any dutch players due to fear of rotation.
Definitely wanted atleast Dumfries had I known he starts
Good thing I sold both Memphis and Wijnaldum then
Ukraine v Austria
My (c) options today:
Lukaku (don’t know if he will actually start)
Yarmalenko (starts)
Dumfries (starts)
Van Aanholt (starts)
Got a bunch of Germans if today goes tits up.
What do you reckon?
I checked Paddy Power Yarmolenko is 3/1 anytime scorer
Out of those Yarmolenko looks the best choice.
I have him too but will take a risk with KDB.
So mad I sold Lukaku…could have sold Kane instead. Oh well.
Cpt Kevin here we come!
KDB cappo too, after Embolo fail.
I messed up my wc otherwise would have had Kevin and captained him good odds of doing well
Not sure who to capt. if this fails. Muller, Havertz, Kane, even Dumfries I suppose.
A very strange game with all the changes.
