JP-U23 vs SP-U23 Dream11 Team Prediction, Fantasy Football Picks, Preview
Goal-Keeper
U.Simon (8.5 Cr) is a wall in front of the opposition attack, After conceding 2 goals in the last match, Simon made sure to save several attacks to demoralize the opposition attackers he has to be even tougher against the host nation.
Defenders
P.Torres (8.5 Cr) is the most consistent defender to play this season along with his defensive abilities he also has the ability to help the attack in creating chances he should be able to make the most of this fixture against Japan.
E.Garcia (8.5 Cr) had an amazing group stage match and also an incredible Euros but has since then lost his form and does not contribute much, It could be tiredness but he has managed to play well and could get back to his form against a defensive Japanese side.
K.Itakura (8.5 Cr) from Japan is our choice in defense because of his strength and ability he showcases in the back. The team is good in defense but they might not be able to pull off this match with the same tactics. His anchor defense role could prove important for this line up.
Midfielders
R.Doan (9.0 Cr) and T.Kubo (8.5 Cr) Kubo is currently the highest scorer from japan and is slightly underrated. His contribution has been very important for his country and Helping Kubo is the amazing goal scorer from the match against Mexico. Doan also managed to get himself an assist.
M.Merino (9.0 Cr) and Dani Olmo (9.5 Cr) These Spanish Midfielders are usually found in anchor forward positions always ready to put the ball in the center so that forward players could try their chances. Both of them have been consistent this season and these midfielders could be the gamechangers in this contest.
Strikers
Y.Soma (9 Cr) managed to grab an assist to his name in their last group stage match against Mexico. It is likely they will be able to make the most of their current form and support from their home fans. Soma could try his best to help his country by scoring a goal or at least assisting it further.
M.Oyarzabal (9.5 Cr) was the goal scorer out of the many from their match against Cote D’Ivoire where the team managed to qualify with a 5-2 win. The same can be expected for this match and Oyarzabal can be trusted to make the host nation pay in this match.
R.Mir (9 Cr) is the super substitute in this team, he is usually not given too much attention but he manages to do it for himself. His last match against IC-U23 was actually great as he managed to score a hattrick coming in as a substitute. This makes him the ultimate player who can contribute with less time.
Captain And Vice-Captain
The captain for this contest will be D.Olmo as he hasn’t disappointed anyone, his play has been brilliant throughout and P.Torres has managed to be consistent in the last 3 games which makes him an important part in this squad and our Vice Captain for this game.
JP-U23 vs SP-U23 Dream11 Team Prediction
U.Simon, K.Itakura, E.Garcia, P.Torres (VC), M.Merino, D.Olmo (C), R.Doan, T.Kubo, M.Oyarzabal, R.Mir, Y.Soma
