Fantasy Football World Cup 2026
Auto Pick Team
Right then, you’ve had your break….
The World Cup officially begins on Thursday June 11th. With 48 teams, 3 host countries and spanning 4 different time zones with 13 different kick-off times this could be messy. But let’s give it a try………

The Rules – in short
It looks very much like Champions League rules, in a roundabout way. The main takeaways are essentially;
- $100m budget
- Squad of 15
- 3 separate matchdays for the group stages
- Separate matchdays for each round thereafter
- You can switch players in from your bench during each matchday
- Likewise you can switch your Captain to your hearts content
- Deadlines are kick-off times – good luck with that one!
- There are a myriad of ‘Boosters’ to use
Basically you can find all the rules HERE

Fixtures
There are a lot, obviously. Too many to post up sensibly so instead you will have to settle for the groups:

Morning guys a touch of advice please???
Here’s my team for this next set of fixtures starting tonight.
I’ve made my two allocated transfers.
My wildcard I’m saving until after the Round of 32.
Booster played so far is my 12th man.
So looking at my men
Would you activate the Maximum Captain booster for this round.
I’m feeling with so many scorer’s in my team it could be a great decision???

The issue is that France and Norway are playing each other so is Haarlad/ Mbape going to score many?
IvanTheTerrible
Do I go with the advice from AI

Yikes…makes sense. Are you going for Saibari?
Reg83
Without any of these AI stuff i decided to go for Saibari. Scotland are much stronger than haiti
Reg83
In fact i am considering hakimi vs saibari as c.
bees393
I am going with Saibari. Vini out wide and Cunha getting the goals.
IvanTheTerrible
Yes, definitely Saibari. Scotland will park the bus, they can progress even with a minimal loss.
bees393
Haiti score…what the heck
Reg83
Oops. C hakimi over vinicius.. well good we can change the c.
Reg83
Haha hakimi scores. On a tricky 16-18 pts now as c
Reg83
And now an assist! Will probably stick now.. 22 pts. But now vincius 2nd too. Saibari scores too
IvanTheTerrible
Not looking good but plenty of time still.
bees393
I am happy for Haiti despite def. loss. As a country they sure can use some uplifting news.
IvanTheTerrible
Interesting
Using his own model, he tips the Netherlands to beat Spain in the semifinal before upsetting Portugal in the title game. According to Klement, Portugal will see off England in the other semifinal

I can see that happening.
Reg83
Almost in top 10k now. Will probably stick with c Hakim 22 ptsi though some others may get bit more. ,
IvanTheTerrible
I went with Saibari who is on 16. Need to decide who gets the armband next, Summerville or Gakpo
bees393
I have those two as well…leaning towards Gakpo but not sure.
IvanTheTerrible
Yeah, let’s go Gakpo. If he fails Mbappe and Kane still to come.
Reg83
Summerville benched. This is now 2 of my players benched today.
