In the build-up to this festival of football, you’ll find – amongst other things – team previews of all 48 competing countries.
We’ll pick out each nation’s key creators, goal-scorers and defensive rocks, alongside their qualifying records and recent results.

This article will be refreshed daily heading into the big tournament kick-off on June 11, from which point we’ll start covering every match from a Fantasy perspective.
