Euro 2024 Fantasy: Who is suspended or nearing a ban?

Skonto Rigga

91 Comments

The bookings are continuing to rack up at this summer’s European Championship.

The yellow cards may have implications for Euro 2024 Fantasy managers, too.

A handful of players are banned in Matchday 4, while many more are balanced precariously on the suspension tightrope.

We’ve got all you need to know in this article.

HOW MANY BOOKINGS RESULT IN A BAN AT EURO 2024?

A one-match suspension will be dished out to any player collecting two bookings.

Should a player manage to be booked on four occasions before the semi-finals, he’ll be suspended for one extra game.

WHEN ARE PLAYERS IN THE CLEAR?

The slate is wiped clean after the quarter-finals, so a player effectively has to avoid two yellow cards in his first five appearances in order to avoid a ban.

HOW MANY GAMES WILL A PLAYER MISS AFTER BEING SENT OFF?

A red card at any stage of Euro 2024 will result in a one-match ban.

In the event of more serious offences, the UEFA Control, Ethics and Disciplinary Body can increase the length of a suspension.

WHO WILL BE SUSPENDED IN MATCHDAY 3?

Ten players were booked for the second time in Matchday 3, so will miss out on the round of 16:

Meanwhile, four players who were banned in Matchday 3 are newly available for the knockout rounds.

They are Spain’s Rodri (€6.5m), Belgium’s Dodi Lukebakio (€6.5m), Portugal’s Rafael Leao (€8.5m) and Turkey’s Abdulkerim Bardakci (€4.5m).

WHO IS ONE BOOKING AWAY FROM A BAN?

Below is a list of all the players who have been booked once in the tournament so far:

Yo. We get unlimited transfers now yeah, so can keep playing about til kick off Saturday?

We have a max 4 from each team just now?

Also, teams must be back to their A team, ie leaving Torres out - is that right?

Need to eb careful with triple or quad picks from Spain vs germany etc. The teams on thay side will play each other in the QF. So France belgum vs Portugal etc.
I'd be cautious going 4 players with no Wc.

Any love for Akanji as a punt? Gets quite a lot of ball recoveries and can't really see Italy score more than 1, if they do.

  I'm going for Akanji & Bastoni from that game & happy to keep whoever progresses v England. Looks like potentially the lowest scoring quarter of the draw. Double England defence too so 80% of my defenders in that section

Dumb question: is WC automatically activated for this round? Because it says I have unlimited transfers but I never pressed the WC button. I used LL last round if it helps.

      Nico is a mid so I have got him. But yes I agree Gakpo could easily outscore Ronaldo/Kane/Mbappe. Im just too much of a dullard manager to make that kind of move when I have these names as options and on pens.

      Looking at the individuals within both France and Belgium's defenses (37 year old Vertonghen, error prone Faes) you've got to admit he has a point.

  Not sure about that defence tbh - looks like you're setting it up for too many transfers in the QF. You really want 3 defenders in Spain v Germany and just one in England v Italy/Switzerland? And 4x Portugal v France? Personally I'm quite wary of overcommitting to Spain defence (and wouldn't be super suprised if Georgia score) and Portugal more generally.

    Fair comment. Difficult not to target the Spain Georgia game then use transfers to remove them in QF. Just need to get the balance right

      That can work if you're happy to have largely the same front 8 for the QF. But my hunch would be that Aus v Ned and Spa v Ger will be the more open QF; Fra v Por and Eng v Ita/Swi the tighter 2

    One thing (I think..) I've learned from UCL fantasy is that in the KO stages it's good to start thinking about 1 or 2 defences you want to start blocking out (then use the majority of your FTs to target attackers in the fixtures you think will be most open). I'm inclined to do that with England & maybe France here, although the whole top half of the bracket looks a bit tricky for this, whereas the ENG/SVK/ITA/SWI quarter looks most promising for R16 & QF CS to me. So I think I'm starting with:
    Pickford Maignan
    Guehi Stones Bastoni Akanji Theo/Koundé

RMT 1.0 ITB

29: Musiala, Wirtz, Mittelstadt (DEN)
30: Morata, Carvajal, Simon (SVN), Bellingham, Guehi (SVK)
1: Fernandes, Cancelo, Costa (GEO)
2: Depay, Frimpong (ROU), Baumgartner (TUR).

I am tempted by Kane over Mbappe, with Bellingham switch to someone else. I might also sell one of GER mids for punt among underdogs. That's more likely tbh.

OR 1218 - help me win this lads! 2nd place ideally as PS5+Kit is more than a trip to Qatar lol.

    Sorry about those fixtures, I typed it on phone while walking.
    
    Yeah. I am not the happiest about Bellingham pick but despite abysmal England performance I want someone of them to attack Slovakia. I might do
    Mbappe > Kane + Bellingham > Jorginho (need to verify pens) or Kante, for safe minutes and ball recoveries. Come to think of it, maybe even Baumgartner > Sabitzer.
    
    But tbh, I don´t feel like punting on Romania despite good performances in mediocre group.

  Same front 3. I've gone for more blocks (England defence, Spain attack) and more depth (full usable 15, e.g. Gundogan first on bench and no mid above 7.5m) compared to you, just my preference.
  
  Not really feeling Germany, struggled with Swiss 3-4-2-1 so Denmark's 3-4-1-2 with Hojland's pace and wingers pushed forward can just follow that template.

Neuer Costa
Carvajal Mittelstadt Hernandez Guehi Mwene
Baumgartner Fernandez Ruiz Musiala Pellegrini
Morata Mbappe Zaccagini

Thoughts? Maybe a goalie on the other side of the draw? I might change Austrian defence too because while they've all returned fairly well, it's not likely they'll get a CS, and I might change it to hedge for a few shocks, but the forward options are so poor I don't know what to do lol, Zaccagini is basically a placeholder at this point.

    don't fancy Ronaldo based on anything I've seen in this tournament but I might have to go for him based on them being probably one of the more likely teams to go through. don't fancy any Netherlands players at all, I think that might be one of the shocks of the round. Yamal might be an option
    
    Rangnick has rotated pretty much his whole team over the course of the group stage, I'll be surprised if he doesn't play.
