🧵FINAL FOUR #GW6 !!

Finally, after 28 games played in #TotalEnergiesAFCON2021 we have reached the semi-final stage of the competition.

4 countries left, 4 teams, around 100 players left to choose for your #afconfantasy team, down from around 672 at the start of tournament
🔷Teams & Schedule

Feb 2nd 20:00
Burkina Faso🇧🇫 - 🇸🇳 Senegal

Feb 3rd 20:00
Cameroon🇨🇲 - 🇪🇬 Egypt
🔷Burkina Faso🇧🇫 - 🇸🇳 Senegal

One of surprises of the tournament, 🇧🇫has done so by keeping it very tight at the back, conceding only 1 goal from open play.

🇸🇳has one of the best defensive stats so far, conceding their 1st goal in the QF, while continuing to improve in attack.
🔷Cameroon🇨🇲 - 🇪🇬 Egypt

🇨🇲continues to be the highest scoring team, while having the easiest game they've had in the QF in terms of defensive stats.

🇪🇬has only conceded 1 goal from open play so far, although the stats also reveal that they've been lucky too.
🔷Rules

In the semifinals we are allowed to have 8 players from the same team, while having 8 free transfers to use.

And now we don't have to worry about eliminated teams as the teams that lose in the SF will battle for 3rd place and that game will also count for fantasy.
🔷Burkina Faso🇧🇫

I think we have to be thankful they've reached the SF as we can use their players as budget enablers or punts. Good prices, while also having decent points total despite no player with 30+ points (other teams with at least 2 players).
🔷🇧🇫🎯(in the order of preference)

GK
Koffi

DF
Dayo (if healthy, might be on pen)
Yago
I. Kaboré
E. Tapsoba
S. Ouattara (if Dayo can't play)

MF
B. Traoré
Sangare
Blati Touré
B. Cyrille
H. Bandé

FW
O. Djibril (unsure he will start)
🔷Senegal🇸🇳

The main source of CS this tournament, not crazy to see 7 defenders in the top 10 most points for 🇸🇳, despite P.A. Cissé and Mbaye only starting 2 games when Koulibaly & Ciss were out with covid.

I do think that 🇸🇳is growing and improving and will be better in SF.
🔷🇸🇳🎯(in the order of preference)

GK
Mendy

DF
B. Sarr
Ciss
Kouyaté
Koulibaly
Diallo

MF
Mané
Ismaïla Sarr
N. Mendy
Gana

FW
Diédhiou
B. Dia
🔷Cameroon🇨🇲

Team with the most goals scored is also with the best forward duo in the tournament. Aboubakar and Toko Ekambi are accounted for all goals for 🇨🇲. The defenders are harder to target too because they've only had 1 CS so far.
🔷🇨🇲🎯

GK
Onana

DF
Fai
Tolo
Ngadeu
Castelletto

MF
Moumi
Hongla
Zambo

FW
Aboubakar
Toko Ekambi
Choupo-Moting (most probably won't start)
🔷Egypt🇪🇬

With King Salah in the team, we always knew that 🇪🇬 has a chance in this tournament. They have been unlucky with injuries (3 GK's have already played) and will play in SF without arguably their best defender, Hegazi.
🔷🇪🇬🎯

GK (not sure who will start)
Gabaski (says he'll be ready)
M. Elshenawy (#1 GK)
M. Sobhy (if 1&2 can't play)

DF
Kamal
Abdelmoneim
Fetouh
Ashraf
Hamdy (if healthy)

MF
Salah
Souila
Trézéguet
Elneny

FW
Marmoush
Mohamed
🔷Wildcard v1

1st draft if I was on a wildcard (109.0 million).

💰0.1 itb.

- Going with 1 GK sure to play.
- Downgrading Diedhiou or Hongla can give me Ismaila Sarr for Moumi.
- I can differentiate DF with getting BFA DF's.
🔷Wildcard v2

2nd draft if I was on a wildcard (109.0 million).

💰0.1 itb.

- Going with 2 playing GK's, you can wait for more news which Egypt GK will start.
- Sell Onana for that Egypt GK and then upgrade Dayo to Kouyate if you want, or Soulia to Hongla, or Moumi to Sarr.
🔷Differentials Picks (<15% owned)

GK:
Koffi 5%

DF:
Ciss 6%
Kouyaté 9%
Abdelmoneim 6%
Kamal 7%
Tolo 11%
Dayo 4%

MF:
Moumi 7%
Sarr 5%
Traoré 13%
Hongla 3%
Soulia 10%
Blati Touré 2%

FW:
Marmoush 11%
Diédhiou 5%
Mohamed 7%
B. Dia 6%
🔷Captaincy

Day 1:
Mané
Alternatives: B Sarr ; Diédhiou
Punts: I Sarr ; Ciss ; Traoré

Day 2:
Aboubakar / Salah
Alternatives: Toko Ekambi
Punts: Moumi ; Mohamed ; Marmoush
🔷CONCLUSION

Now you already have a good picture which players are must-haves, budget enablers, differentials & punts for the last 2 rounds, a strategy to gain points might be to get 1-2 differentials and make a good captaincy pick.

🚨AFCON Fantasy QF #GW5 Thread🧵🚨

Yes we have reached the GF of #TotalEnergiesAFCON2021.

8 teams left. Few surprises have left us /w players from eliminated teams, like Ivory Coast, Nigeria and Mali.

Templates have become stronger. Can we still gain to boost the rank?
🔷Teams & Schedule #GW5 (with predictions)

Day 1:
1. Gambia 🇬🇲 - 🇨🇲 Cameroon (1-2)
2. Burkina Faso 🇧🇫 - 🇹🇳 Tunisia (0-1)

Day 2:
1. Egypt 🇪🇬 - 🇲🇦 Morocco (1-2)
2. Senegal 🇸🇳 - 🇬🇶 Equatorial Guinea (1-0)

[1]
Despite high expectations and good underlying stats, we have seen too many low scoring games that I wouldn't dare to predict high scoring games.

But some things I guess could happen:
These games: 🇬🇲 - 🇨🇲 and 🇪🇬 - 🇲🇦 could be a higher scoring games than : 🇧🇫 - 🇹🇳 and 🇸🇳 - 🇬🇶

#GW3 Preview #AfconFantasy

With the results of #GW2 coming in these coming days, let's see what kind of strategy we are looking at for the teams in #GW3 and which teams we want to target for the last games of the group stage.

[1]
Group A

Cape Verde🇨🇻 - Cameroon🇨🇲
To avoid being 3rd in group, 🇨🇻 must win.
For 🇨🇲 a draw is enough to win group.
I can see🇨🇲 still fielding the best team although depending on how the game goes, they will play it safe in the end. If🇨🇻 then 🇨🇲 will become 2nd.

[2]
Burkina Faso🇧🇫- Ethiopia🇪🇹
Will become a lively game as both teams will want to win the game.
If 🇪🇹win they can still be 3rd. They can't be 2nd because they lost from🇨🇻 in GW1.
🇧🇫can't be 1st as they lost from 🇨🇲 earlier.

🚨WILDCARD IN #GW2 ? 🚨

My preference is to wildcard in GW2, so that I can attack the good matchups in GW1 , have more info about lineups and performance for GW2, and to avoid some rotations on teams that have already qualified or won the group.

🧵 #AFCONFantasy

In this thread I will give you some good options per position you can choose according to your budget for your team.
Also players with🥇GW2 matchup that you can sell in GW3.
