Friday’s final fixture takes in the Group D clash between Spain and a Turkey side looking for their first points of Euro 2016.

This is the first time the two sides have met in a major finals, while in their previous 10 encounters Spain have won nine. Turkey’s only victory came in a World Cup qualifier in 1954.

Although Vicente del Bosque’s Spain won their first game 1-0 over the Czech Republic, the former World Cup winners were far from convincing with 13 of their 18 goal attempts failing to hit the target.

Turkey will be hoping Spain can continue their profligate goal threat after conceding a worrying 15 shots in the box in their 1-0 defeat to Croatia. Indeed, over their 13 European Championship games Turkey have kept just two clean sheets.

          Yeah I'm on about 140 points with 2 to play, and I have Payet, Giaccherini, Morata, etc likely to rise in price. I just gotta hold tight/my nerve and then go quarters. I have a lead in all my ML so I should be able to get through GW3 still in front.

          Plus we get a few days thinking time between last group games and L16 games, which we dont get between GW2 and GW3.

      I posted this earlier today. Am absolutely baffled by the rush to wild card:

      "I have been asking the same questions as I think wild carding next matchday is the equivalent of wild carding in gw38 in FPL.

      I think the fact that so little is known about the pricing makes it an odd time to chase price rises, but the bigger issue for me is that the strategy involves stacking your squad with players from eliminated teams, which is the most baffling since the one mechanism we know (and I like) is that a squad of fifteen active players can be used in each round and is a very helpful strategy.

      Wild card between R16 and QF makes the most sense to me since the pool of available players goes from 16 to 8, and there are only four FTs that round. If you have triple France and double England and they both get eliminated, you've lost five players and have only four FTs with which to replace them."

        Thanks TM you talk a lot of sense, I think I can hold.
        even if you WC this round there are still so many uncertainties-I'm not too interested either in packing my team with 4m.

        That's definitely one reasonable look at it.

        I think the big problem in planning is that we don't know anything about how those price changes will hit us. That can be a total game changer and we have little cue how to prepare for it.

        Personally, I think my team is pretty fine, so I'm probably saving the wildcard. Most of my guys have not yet won the group either, so should play the GW3.

          I am in a similar position, and am hopeful that my squad depth can carry me through the last group matches. Triple France attack would have been a concern if they had already clinched, but I hope I will be okay.

    Value through the middle with a strong defence and no bloody djourou!

    The way forward is multiple clean sheets, finding the diamonds in the middle (James Rodriguez world cup as an example) a couple of proven goal scorers and a cheap striking risk!

    Why have a polish defender? They’ll leak and won’t go very far in the tournament

    You’ll only end up taking him out anyway, it happens every season/tournament – the top teams back line consist of defenders and keeper from one or two top teams, and it usually pays off.
