Euro Fantasy Scout: Fantasy tips for Round of 16 Euro 2016

 Midfielder

Ozil will be my first pick for this Matchday. He has been brilliant in all three games but hasn’t got much to show for it, mostly because of the ‘no show’ of Muller and Gotze.

Ramsey will be my second pick. He with Bale have marshaled Wales all this while and as they are in a relatively easier bracket, I am sure he’ll be able to get at least an assist in this Matchday. Get him in!

In Modric’s absence Persisic has beautifuuly handled the midfield and looks very threatening going forward. Against a leaky Portugal defence, it is a must to have him in your side.

Payet has been the player of the knockout stage for France. His incisive passing, direct runs into the box and brilliant crosses have proven to be a handful for teams. Against a rather meek Irish defence, you can count on him to get you at least 5 points tonight.

Hazard is my last midfielder for this game. Along with De Bruyne, he has been the lynchpin of Belgium’s attacking threat. But as he is cheaper than De Bruyne, I get Hazard instead of De Bruyne.
