We’ve put together a comprehensive list of potential set-piece and penalty takers ahead of the start of Euro 2024 Fantasy.

Not just that, there are notes on all 24 nations to explain why certain names appear on the list.

To do this, we’ve been drawing on the set-piece data from European Championship qualification and the subsequent friendlies, which can be found in the Premium Members Area.

The correspondents who were contributing to our team previews have also offered their thoughts on who is on dead-ball duties.

These are only educated guesses, of course – the managers might have different ideas come the big kick-off.

SET PIECE TAKERS

The players are listed in order of potential prominence at dead-ball situations. For example, Harry Kane (€11.0m) is England’s first-choice penalty taker and Christian Eriksen (€7.0m) is first in line for corners with Denmark.

    Chip strategy going to be massive. What’s your plan?

      Loaded up on goalscorers and playing the 10pt goal chip. Captaincy on 0.1% owned player for a laugh. If my team is bin after round 1 then I'll just give up - it's one fantasy game too far tbh but the prize money is too enticing.

      I'll probably save the 12th man chip for the knockout stages when pricing makes it harder to put a team together.

      Goal bonus I'll use in MD 1 I think as fixtures look most favourable for the seeded teams

      I might use the max captain in MD 3 in case we get benchings for key players whose teams have already qualified, making it harder to predict who to captain

    Feels wrong not to have any Belgian attacker, but I am not confident enough in Lukaku over Kane, Mbappé or CR7, nor I am confident in Trossard over Bruno. Tough one.

      I went Lukaku over Kane.

      Top scorer in qualifying with 14 goals. Kane only managed 8 and 4 of those were pens.

    I think ffs is missing an opportunity here.
    Let’s be honest nobody, really cares about Euro fantasy (right? Right?!) so not sure people will see premium members only articles and think I better pay for a membership.
    These articles would have been better used as advert to showcase level of insight and depth of information to those who are not sure whether they should pay for premium account for the next season or not?

      Was thinking the same thing, a set-piece taker list is a bare minimum tool you'd expect from a Fantasy Football website. The fact that this one is pay-walled is a good way to drive people towards / Reddit / Twitter where it's free to access

      Like both options but going with Calhanoglu because Georgia should be the weakest team in the entire thing, finished 4th of 5 teams behind Scotland and Norway in qualifying and only qualified here through the nations league nonsense.

          I've gone Costa but it's a risk as he plays on the last day, and there's no chance to sub him out which might make Pickford a better choice
