Watchlist
Kevin De Bruyne
Belgium
Belgium belongs here because their fantasy value depends on role clarity, minutes, and whether the key attacker starts. Their hook is simple: A top-heavy Belgium team still led by De Bruyne and Lukaku, but now defined by defensive doubt and Doku's spark. Expect star led, wide overload themes, with Kevin De Bruyne the easiest player entry point.
Mohamed Salah
Egypt
Egypt belongs here because their fantasy value depends on role clarity, minutes, and whether the key attacker starts. Their hook is simple: An ultra-defensive Egypt side asking Salah and Marmoush to turn low-block survival into sudden punishment. Expect star led, transition counter, compact block themes, with Mohamed Salah the easiest player entry point.
Mehdi Taremi
IR Iran
IR Iran belongs here because their fantasy value depends on role clarity, minutes, and whether the key attacker starts. Their hook is simple: An experienced Iran side with Taremi, set-piece size and a worrying defensive record in the build-up. Expect compact block, wide overload, transition counter themes, with Mehdi Taremi the easiest player entry point.
Chris Wood
New Zealand
New Zealand belongs here because their fantasy value depends on role clarity, minutes, and whether the key attacker starts. Their hook is simple: A possession-leaning New Zealand side built around Chris Wood, with width and the No.10 role still unresolved. Expect wide overload, star led, system control themes, with Chris Wood the easiest player entry point.
