World Cup Transfer Tips: Last 16 – The Big Numbers

The World Cup takes a break on Friday for the first time in over a fortnight, with the round of 16 commencing on Saturday afternoon.

The lull in action is a welcome respite for Fantasy managers as serious thought can be given to what is effectively a compulsory wildcard, with both McDonald’s FIFA and Fantasy iTeam offering unlimited transfers between the culmination of the group stage and the start of the knockout rounds.

Although the round of 16 fixtures will be the prime concern, Fantasy managers ought to take the quarter-finals into consideration given that only three free transfers are permitted (any more will cost points/credits) before they begin.

Up to four players can be selected from one country in both Fantasy games at the last 16 stage, though some Fantasy bosses may wish to spread their selections across several nations given the restrictions on transfers before the quarter-finals begin.

Fantasy managers will have already noticed the price rises – and drops – in both our featured World Cup games, though in McDonald’s FIFA at least the allotted budget increases from £100m to £105m for these knockout rounds.

Players such as Cristiano Ronaldo (£12.1m), Harry Kane (£11.1m), Diego Costa (£9.1m), Christian Eriksen (£9.1m), Philippe Coutinho (£9.1m), Denis Cheryshev (£5.7m), Andreas Granqvist (£5.1m), Diego Godin (£5.6m) and Fernando Muslera (£5.6m) have all increased in price in McDonald’s FIFA, though no player has risen more than £0.2m.

Lionel Messi (£11.9m), Olivier Giroud (£8.9m), Willian (£8.4m), Dele Alli (£8.9m), Nicolas Otamendi (£5.9m) and Kyle Walker (£5.9m) are among the big names who have suffered a price drop, meanwhile.

Members can read on for this round-up of the Opta data from the group stages. The data itself is available to members as part of their yearly subscription and obtainable immediately after the end of each World Cup match.

    AKA:

    Ignoring FRA vs ARG
    Ignoring URU vs POR
    BRA x 2
    BEL x 2 (+ INUI for giggles)
    SPA x 2
    CRO x 2
    SWI x 2

      England play Colombia, thats 2-0 clean sheet, goals from Kane and Lingard potentially (or assists) Points for pickford and Trippier and then Switzerland or Sweden next round. So sorted for next XI.

      Switzerland will beat Sweden, so there is that 2 player shout.

            Not saying they aren't. You've a lot of faith in the England defence which is admirable. Many just big them up then tear them down when something goes wrong. Southgate is a good manager. But it's a lottery in the knockouts, defenders without attacking intent aren't investable I think. I expect England to go through but it's not like your doubling on a Chelsea defence in it's prime to go for get another cleansheet. I hope he brings in Cahill for Walker and ye get the cleansheet.

                I know, England should win in 90 mins. But have to be sccoreless on 90 for your cleansheet. Trippier a very good pick, attack minded good assist potential and relatively cheap. Pickford a very good keeper. I wouldn't give a bookie money for an England cleansheet with Walker at the back. With Cahill in for him I might be tempted.

        Costa vs Russia
        Lukaku vs Japan
        Kane vs Columbia
        Coutinho vs Mexico.

        Or I could just keep twisting and gamble on the last day for Kane to come good.

              It's your decision at the end of the day. I can't tell you for certain that Boyata won't play because we're not dealing with a leaked line-up here (the main first choice defenders may be saved for Brazil) - we're dealing with a prediction.

    Epic Fail or 420 KING you might know....

    Do we get points all the way to 120 mins played? or do they stop scoring at 90mins because that might make a HUGE difference to my decision.

    The Argentina vs France, Uruguay vs Portugal could easily go to 120 leading to longer for defenders to lose their clean sheets and attackers having more time to score.

    Thoughts?
