Wednesday evening treats Fantasy managers to four more Euro 2016 fixtures before the curtain comes down on the group stages.

First up at 5pm, all four teams in Group F have a chance of progressing to the final 16.

With a single goal from 49 attempts, profligate Portugal have done little to justify their place as pre-tournament favourites to top the group but know that a win against Hungary will be enough to earn them at least a runners-up spot.

Iceland and Austria do battle in the other fixture. Like Portugal, the latter arrived as one of the dark horses for the tournament but have been a major disappointment and failed to score in their opening two fixtures, managing just four efforts on target. Iceland, meanwhile, have registered just 12 attempts on goal thus far – a tally superior only to Sweden’s 11.

Given that the second-placed team in Group F will face England in the next round, the Three Lions will be keeping a keen eye on the results here.

Indeed, considering that the Group F winners square up the runners-up in Group E – which look likely to be Belgium – topping the table could prove a less appealing route into the knockout stages.

      • Bøwstring The Carp
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        All the arguments about not getting Ronaldo

        If ever there was a player more "imminent" from those stats it was him

        (C) fantastic 😎

        1. Eden Hazardous
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          *high five*

              • 10 Years
              9 years, 10 months ago

              Like a boss

        4. Debauchy
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          Yep. Plan was Lewan to Ronaldo this game. But injuries got in the way

      • Les Bleus
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        So close to going Ronaldo captain, instead went with Lukaku

        1. Epic Fail
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          No such thing as close. You simply captained someone else. 👿

        2. KingNidge
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          Good call.. Ronaldo is past it

          1. Debauchy
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 10 months ago

            You should know Nidge

        3. El Patron
          • 10 Years

        Crap defending = Exciting game

      • Grand Thibauto
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        Capping Ronaldo has been the best ever. Thank you TorresMagic for convincing.

          Why did you need convincing?

          1. Debauchy
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 10 months ago

            Just the way it is......

            • 11 Years
            9 years, 10 months ago

            I was on the mindset Portugal was to lose this.

          Almost as inevitable as a TM new article first comment

        England v Portugal now has an inevitability about it.

          Still need 3 goals to occur.

          1. TorresMagic™
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 16 Years
            9 years, 10 months ago

            3-1 Ice, 4-3 Port

            1. Camp No No
              • 12 Years
              9 years, 10 months ago

              Which seems increasingly unlikely. But maybe if Iceland can score one from set pieces, Austria will become more vulnerable for counter attacks, and then...

                9 years, 10 months ago

                Currently Eng vs Port.

            • 14 Years
            9 years, 10 months ago

            Maybe the commentator had it wrong then

            1. TorresMagic™
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • Has Moderation Rights
              • 16 Years
              9 years, 10 months ago

              You're right actually. No chance no more goals.

          3. palace ash

            ?

            England v Portugal as it stands

            1. TorresMagic™

              • Has Moderation Rights
              • 16 Years
              9 years, 10 months ago

              More goals on the way.

        2. Debauchy
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          Im not English , but would lay a hefty to beat this Port. side

      • Pirlø's Pen
        • 10 Years

        Ronaldo (C) is going to push me to the top of all my mini leagues. Thank you Cristiano!

      • Lone Wolf FPL
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        It is funny that U can outscore someone who has good team with just one player and crap rest

          • 10 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          If he had a good team he would score more points.

          1. Lone Wolf FPL
            • 10 Years

            You know what I mean

      • KING_ZLATAN
