Goal-keeper
Yann Sommer (8.5 Cr) is one of the finest goalkeepers in the world and his composure in front of the goals makes him an important player after he was well-rested in the last match.
Defenders
Joao Cancelo (8.5 Cr) plays left wing and pushes himself to the very extent when he tries to attack and has made considerable contributions to his name which can be taken up a notch in this game.
Silvan Widmer (8.5 Cr) played brilliantly in the opening stages of the tournament and should be able to bring his defensive skills to the table which will be tested to the limit.
Manuel Akanji (8.0 Cr) is very fast and his ball control in that speed makes him special in the center back position and will aim to maintain his side in the game for this contest.
Midfielders
Bruno Fernandes (9.0 Cr) looks comfortable under the tactics and has continued with his playmaking skills which has already helped him with 2 assists and 2 goals as our prime choice for this encounter.
Bernardo Silva (8.0 Cr) has not been at his best but holds amazing understanding of his role in the team with amazing stamina and determination that can be seen in this fixture.
Xherdan Shaqiri (9.0 Cr) has been a consistent contributor for his country and he has the power to find goals and provide crucial assists that make him a key player in this lineup.
Remo Freuler (8.5 Cr) is another player who manages to find goals and create assisting opportunities with his current form and muscular transformation that earned him an important goal in the last match.
Forwards
Cristiano Ronaldo (9.0 Cr) is yet to make an attacking presence after scoring 1 goal in the last match which can keep him motivated to showcase his true potential as our prime choice for this encounter.
Joao Felix (8.0 Cr) is a brilliant goal-poacher and has always managed to surprise the crowd with his smart goal-scoring abilities which could help him in this contest.
Breel Embolo (9.0 Cr) scored his second goal of the tournament in the last match and has shown amazing control against tougher oppositions which can keep him driven for this fixture.
