EURO 2020 Fantasy managers should look to North Macedonia for some of the most intriguing budget differentials on offer this summer.
Competing for the first time under their new name (following the 2019 Prespa agreement – they previously played as simply “Macedonia”) they finished third in Group G, well behind winners Poland and runners-up Austria.
Entering the ever more labyrinthine world of the playoffs, Northern Macedonia emerged triumphant from Path D to take their place at a European Championship finals for the first time as an independent nation.
As newcomers, they are ranked as outsiders to progress from Group C this summer, but any team who could only a few months ago inflict Germany’s first World Cup qualifying defeat in twenty years deserves serious consideration.
In partnership with UEFA, we continue our series of EURO 2020 articles by examining North Macedonia in detail to see if any of their players can compete for a place in your Fantasy teams.
All prices given are from the official UEFA Euro 2020 Fantasy game – but we have an extra section on FanTeam price differences towards the end of the article.
If the qualifications of Italy and Belgium for EURO 2020 could be described as coronation processions, North Macedonia’s was the equivalent of jumping aboard the last bus just as it was pulling away.
Their tally of four wins and two draws from ten group matches is unimpressive. The first round of five matches brought only a single victory (at home to Latvia) and five points, but autumn wins against Slovenia and Latvia in the return fixture set the stage for a Skopje showdown with fellow-challengers Israel.
That was where a first-half injury time strike by Lecce midfielder Boban Nikolov (€5.0m) from a parried corner was enough to propel North Macedonia to their highest every qualifying group finishing position (courtesy of their head-to-head record with Slovenia) and a playing record that landed them a berth in the playoffs (along with Israel, who technically finished three points behind in fifth).
From the qualifying group onwards, Ezgjan Alioski (€4.5m) has been the most consistent provider of assists to the team with seven to his name (four in the qualifying group).
Over the same period, midfielder Eljif Elmas (€6.0m) is the leading scorer, also with seven and one of two secondary assisters with four.
The two other primary attacking contributors have been veteran forward Goran Pandev (€6.5m) with four goals and midfield wizard Enis Bardhi (€6.0m) with four assists.
In UEFA’s latest incarnation of playoffs for the EUROs the idea is to have one playoff path for each of the four levels (A to D) of the Nations League.
Thus, Path A saw Iceland, Bulgaria, Hungary and Romania fighting it out for one EURO 2020 finals spot while Path D had the same prize being fought over by Georgia, Kosovo, Belarus and North Macedonia.
They beat first Kosovo and then Georgia to earn the right to travel this summer to Bucharest (with Romania having been knocked out of their playoff path by Iceland) to face first Austria again in EURO 2020 Group C and then Ukraine before flitting north to play the Netherlands in Amsterdam.
The playoff matches took place directly before the third and fifth matches of North Macedonia’s 2020 UEFA Nations League campaign which saw them remain unbeaten against Georgia and Estonia until, with a group victory, and with it a 2022 World Cup Finals playoff place on the line, they contrived to lose 1-0 in Armenia.
Any disappointment from that result has been channelled into 2021’s opening World Cup qualifying matches where they suffered a narrow 3-2 reverse in Romania before trouncing Liechtenstein 5-0 at home and then travelling to Duisberg to shock Germany 2-1 in only the hosts’ third ever defeat at this stage of the competition.
Thanks to his appearances on the left of defence (and occasionally midfield) for Marcelo Bielsa’s newly-promoted Leeds United in the English Premier League, Alioski will probably be the most well-known name in this squad to many Fantasy Football Scout readers, listeners and viewers.
They will be delighted to hear that he performs much the same duties for his country which has led to him being their leading assister over the last three seasons from marauding crosses and indirect set-pieces alike and they will be even happier that he is North Macedonia’s primary penalty taker.
Since the start of qualifying for these finals in 2019, Elmas has been North Macedonia’s leading attacker statistically with seven goals and four assists.
And yet, watching most of their matches, you would barely notice Elmas (pictured above, left) was there, especially in ties against strong opposition. You’ll typically find him sitting just in front of his own penalty area, snapping into tackles, winning the ball back and moving it on five yards.
He is no stranger to a yellow card from grabbing a counter-attacking opponent. He doesn’t so much make forward runs as suddenly materialise in and around the box, either to sweep in a cutback as he did for the winner against Germany or to make a telling layoff for a team-mate to drive in a shot.
If you’re more familiar with the Premier League than Serie A, where he plies his trade for Napoli, his style compares to Ilkay Gundogan (€7.5m) playing for Manchester City.
‘The Maradona of the Osogova-Belasica Chain’ doesn’t really roll off the tongue, but when you watch Levante’s Bardhi collect a ball, flick it around the corner, leave his marker for dead, swerve round another challenge and then play a perfect 50 yard diagonal or clip a free kick over the wall and past a helpless keeper he does remind you somewhat of the legendary Gheorghe Hagi.
He is quick of thought and foot, considered one of the finest free-kick takers in La Liga and has three assists in this year’s internationals. Maybe the “Czar of the Šars” could catch on?
Across the pitch from Alioski, you’ll find right-back Stefan Ristovski (€4.0m) who also loves to get forward to make a telling cross. He has provided three assists since the EURO 2020 qualifiers and also chipped in with a goal on the counter-attack.
The assister for that strike was charismatic, 37 year-old talisman Pandev, scorer of the vital Playoff winner in Georgia last November. He is likely to pass 120 caps for his country in their encounter with the Netherlands and, though not a regular scorer, is vastly experienced and very much a man for the big occasion. While he used to take penalties for his nation, Alioski has assumed those duties since his rise to prominence.
Striker Aleksandr Trajkovski (€7.0m) is fighting for a starting spot up-front and has three goals World Cup qualifier goals in 2021, two in the 5-0 thrashing of Liechtenstein and another from the 3-2 defeat in Romania.
North Macedonia are as much a treasure trove of budget options in FanTeam as they are in the UEFA game.
Bardhi, Elmas and Trichkovski are the only players as expensive as €5.0m, the rest of the squad coming in at €4.5m or less.
Alioski is one of the €4.5m options while Ristovski matches his €4.0m price-tag from the UEFA game with the same cost in FanTeam.

Thoughts on this lot would be much appreciated, my first crack at this game:
Donnaruma ~ Hradecky
Cancelo ~ Maehle ~ Kjaer ~ Hinteregger ~ Bednarek
Chiesa ~ Eriksen ~ Torres ~ Malinovskyi ~ Nego
Lukaku ~ Lewandowski ~ Mertens
Was going to go with the giant guy from Austria up front but they looked awful last night.
Not keen on doubling up on Belgian forwards, would rather upgrade Mertens to Depay and downgrade Cancelo to Pepe.
And only Eriksen in midfield I'm looking at out of that lot for GW1, depending on chip strategy i would look else were
Don't think Pepe starts tbh.
Agree on the double Belgium forwards though.
I'm pretty sure. But if not then Fonte for the same amount of money will start, if he wants a Portuguese defender
Fonte is the captain
*for Lille, who won the league this year
probably Dias – Fonte CB partnership
Pepe was first choice last year along Dias. He has missed the last two national breaks with injury though.
Thanks pal, not keen on Depay at all but you might be right ditching Mertens
No me neither, but think it's really hard to pick out a team and it all will depend on when to use the Chips.
Really lacks good mid priced midfield options imo.
I think it is a decent team you got there.
Personally I think 7m for Ruslan Volodymyrovych is a bit much considering he is playing Netherlands in the first match.
I would also toy around with different teams for when the Turkey-Italy lineups are available. If Bastoni (4.5) starts, then he should be in your team, and I swap out Donnarumma in the process.
You also seem to lack a captain for Sunday 13'th and Tuesday 15'th:
Chiesa – Lukaku – Malinovskyi – Lewandowski/Torres – Cancelo is not the strongest of a captain chain in my opinion.
Thanks mate, agreed my captain options are too weak
Anyone here doing the UEFA Euro 2020 fantasy? Just been reading the rules and it sounds like you can change your captain mid gameweek? Is this right?
Please ignore me.
Found this article if anyone else was confused about this
https://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2021/05/25/euro-2020-fantasy-strategy-guide-how-best-to-pick-and-swap-captains-on-a-matchday/
You can change players and captain after each day in the round. Better explained in the rules than in any article. Put the 4 players on your bench that are playing latest in the round no matter how good they are.
Are there any decent prizes? I can't find any info on that…
Can anyone explain how in Euro 2020 Fantasy you can change who is on bench and in main squad? I see the substitution option, but if I do this, does that count as my substitution for the first GW and therefore means I can't sub again during that week?
Free substitutions, bench priorities, captain choice and so on until GW1 kicks off.
Cheers!
https://gaming.uefa.com/en/uefaeuro2020fantasyfootball/info/EURO.FANTASY.RULES/0
You can sub in any player that has yet to play in a later day in the round. So you're better off playing players or captaining them even if they've low expectations as you can sub them out when your sub in is playing the next day.
This is quite a story!

Love it! Moneyball
Good read
How many pen takers do you have in your current draft?
Im on 5 at the moment.

Team Penalty Taker
Austria Sabitzer, Arnautovic
Belgium Lukaku
Croatia Modric
Czech Republic Darida
Denmark Eriksen
England Kane
Finland Pukki
France Mbappe
Germany Gundogan, Kroos

I meant your 5, but thks!
PS: 5 for me then
Rodriquez, Alioski, Eriksen, Depay, Lukaku
quite like the idea of the 2 defenders, especially as their fixtures are on the whole pretty good across wk1 & 3.
Wales, Turkey
Austria, Netherlands
no CR7? wow.
Good stuff. Is that from UEFA site?
merged a few recent sources on the tinterweb
How sure are you they are number one penalty taker for their country? Bruno isn't
prob doesn't have bruno
Plenty will have him and other players expecting clublike performances and wonder why Lewandowski isn't getting Bayern service from his Polish teammates.
good. perfect.
🙂
New team that aims to NOT use Limitless in MD2. I think it might be better between RO16 and QF.
Hradecky Szczesny
Kjaer Denayer Matviyenko P. Torres Fonte
Chiesa Alaba Malinovskyi Torres Jota
Lukaku Depay Griezmann
The wildcards are the Ukrainians. Everything I"m reading is that this Dutch team could just implode with De Boer in charge. They are a very good unit and I can see an upset there and then they play North Macedonia in MD2.
Same with France and Griezmann who I think is likely on pens still especially since Benzema missed and plays Hungary in week 2.
I have 4 of those
I would have thought limitless in wk2 or wk3 is the way to go, if you use it in the KOs then when your team reverts you will have to wildcard to fix it.
I think Ukraine will beat them in gw1 and go on to be the dark horses for the tournament – QF/SF possibly. Quite like Zinchenko as well.
Oh yeah I mean Limitless in MD3 and Wildcard for QFs…
indeed. i am tempted to make a draft for that as well, lots of rotation in the final round. you might have the likes of spain/belgium/italy resting by that point
Ukraine have the worst chance creation and attacking stats out of all teams in the tournament… what makes you think they get far?
Strong defense. Weak group.
They conceded 4 vs spain, 7 vs france, 2 poland, 3 Jerries, 3 Swiss in last 12. Also no CS vs Bahrain and Kazashtan
In competitive games is what counts and they topped the group including Portugal. But yeah maybe you're right. They seem good value though especially in a group with Austria and North Macedonia who are surely two of the weaker teams in the competition and a Dutch team who are talented but a bit rudderless.
North macedonia is a lot better than what people give them credit for. I'm having 2 of them.
beat Germany 2-1 in a WC qualifier on 31 march
I can see Alioski being worth it but that's about it.
Malinovskyi also on pens. Gotta count for something.
As a Macedonian myself I am not even brave enough to take 2 of our players. One of Alioski/Ristovski is enough I think. Tempted by Elmas also but Alaba is better value imo
Expecting that group to have the most goals in the tournament due to the defensive instability of those teams, probably except Ukraine
Looks alright to me!
Pos Team Pld W D L GF GA GD Pts
1 Ukraine 8 6 2 0 17 4 +13 20
2 Portugal 8 5 2 1 22 6 +16 17
In their last 10 games they haven’t scored more than 1 goal in a game… doesn’t sound very promising to me
Will use limitless in Round 3. Using it in knockout rounds could backfire if there's a few surprise results needing hits to get a decent team in the next round. In Round 3 can target a few hitters without thinking if they get to the last 16 or not.
You do realise using Limitless after the R16 or later will leave you well behind the rest? Your team will be full of eliminated players. You’re better off using LL in MD3 and WC in finals.
That was my original plan but I feel upside is limited by not using a chip in MD2 where the fixtures are tricky… MD1 and 3 fixtures complement each other well which aligns well with a LL in MD2
Yeah of course. I was stupid. Obviously you use Limitless in MD3 and WC for QFs.
Ukraine dont score enough
For those saving WC for the knockout stage, when do you plan on using Limitless?
MD2 or MD3?
LL2 allows us to take advantage of the many teams that have favourable MD1&3 fixtures, but LL3 may be good at picking players that are less likely to be rotated, possibly from weaker teams that will go all out in the last MD…
All things considered I think LL2 has the higher upside (given fixture arrangement of the better teams in the tournament)
It's not a question. MD3 by far.
Because there will be heavy rotation and you also can take stock of which teams need results. A team like Germany vs Hungary in a must-win suddenly becomes very appealing.
Generally consensus on Twitter and other places appears to LL MD2 by far… interesting to see quite a few people on here are quite set on a MD3 LL.
I definitely need to look into it more but from what I’ve gathered so far is that many of the top teams may not have top place secured by MD3 due to their harder fixtures generally falling on MD2… so obviously will be less likely to rotate for MD3. It’s all a guessing game though as we don’t know who will qualify yet so it makes it difficult to decide
That's because the plan on Twitter is to WC on MD3 and basically have 3 free hits.
I’m Seeing more people saving their WCs than before though
Leave Twitter for tweeting. What'll happen your Round 3 team, reset R1 team, if players lose form, injured, suspended or team already qualified? Probably needing hits I think. Pick a team for first two rounds, use the two free transfers in between, Limitless chip in Round 3 and roll your team and captain smartly.
That was my original thought but fell into a herd mentality, fear of falling behind I think.
The lack of teams that have a good MD1 and 2 fixture is putting me off big time.
Fixtures may not be as they seem and players form may not be what it seems as some are wrecked after a lot of games without much rest. Could be a shock from also rabs with squad players for good players v first timers for big clubs who went far in Euro club competitions. Italy qualified well but from a poor standard group. Turkey have a couple of attackers that are more than capable of scoring against them, the result isn't important at that early stage FF-wise just the points. With 2 subs in between you'll have 8 or 9 players with decent enough fixtures. There were a few upsets at last Euros in regular times, not least Portugal winning it. COVID times may still spring some surprises. Check Transfermarkt for more recent international stats per player. Some players did well in qualifiers but form dipped in late 2020.
Yeah think I’m being swayed towards a LL3 now, definitely potential to break away from the rest. Euros will have much variance than a season of FPL, That’s for sure
MD3.
logically MD3 makes most sense for limitless
the argument for MD2 is the fixtures better align between 1 & 3.
Yep, the question is which argument is better though…
Rmt? Looking to be aggressive on fantasy for the first time. Will probably use my chips in gwks 2 and 3.
Krul/Stek
Denayer, Kjaer, Hinteregger, allioski, PTorres
Hazard, Eriksen, FTorres and 2x 4.0s
Kane, Depay, Ronaldo
2 4s in mid cos id rather have premium players than swap 2 lesser ones
this game is different to FPL, its about the best XV, not the best XI. you have 3 dead players and Denayer isnt nailed either.
I thought Denayer was nailed for gwk1 ngl. But other than that whos the third dead player?
I like the idea of changing captains. But subwise why do we have to sub one mid bracket to another when you could just rely on the premium?
1 of the dutch keepers
Idea is to have a dutch keeper playing (not sure which starts). No one else under 5.5 appeals to me. Like i get the subs thing but like i dont think the finnish gk will get any points anyway
I do plan on making use of the subs at gwk 2 when i use limitless. But for one week surely its viable to stick with the premiums and just have one available sub as a defender
point is you can have 2 playing and either stick or twist depending on how the first one does.
Yup but my point is that for gwk1 id rather have 1 premium than stick or twist on 2 mid brackets.. i could change stek but the attack i feel could be explosive
Krul looks like the man that will start, Stek hasn’t played a game for Netherlands since 2016. Krul and someone like Cakir could be a nice 4.5 combo
I could do a combo with the gk.. just wasnt sure on which 4.5 to get as i feel cakir will lose his cs anyway. Stek i had just on the off chance krul doesnt start. Its for one week only
Denayer isn’t nailed? That’s news to me
its 50:50 between him and vermaelen, who was injured for a bit
hopefully clears up over friendlies
same goes for P.Torres as well
there is undoubtedly amazing value at 4.5 defenders from big teams (Belg/Spain/Italy/Dutch) if you can call it right.
I agree there is the risk. I only need one to play to be happy as theres not much investment in them anyway. I agree with changing stek to a playing gk too
Dr Rog echoes my sentiments.
For those who have taken +11m out for one of, or +22m for two of ; Mbappe, Ronaldo, Lewandowski, Kane, Lukaku, Griezman ….. you'd better hope they score big.
Three of them are in the toughest group playing each other, and one has Poland and not Bayern supplying.
Once we hit the knockout phase, we get another 5m. I won't be spending that on big names, I'll be using it to cover the extra prices attached to the teams likely to make the latter stages.
2.12 goals per game last time.
Anyone with those +11m players, how many of your squad could realistically score ?
I've designed my squad, hoping that 7 of them will score once during the tournament ….. and be able to switch to that player each matchday because of the movable capt.
I mean thats what you are paying premium for right? Its all good planning this 6 mil sub for that one but what will you do if Kane and Ronaldo explode? (Which they could)
just the same in FPL, there has to be some squad balance.
subs are more important in this game
captains – are more/less important depending on when they play due to the stick/twist choice everybody has. e.g. the likes of Chiesa/Lukaku are almost essential because they will have an extremely high concentration of captiancy and if they explode you genuinely will be behind. on the flipside Ronaldo is less important because its more likely than not that one of the preceeding 4 captains will score 8+ and many will prefer to stick not twist.
I do get what you mean but its not the only way of playing. Because then it just writes off any premium playing later? I do get the subs but for gwk1 im not interested in swapping mid bracket attackers when i can just have a hazard / ronaldo who i think will do well
Its what the risk in premiums are. And unlike FPL, this is a short term game where it can work (as much as not work).. its not to say i wont make use of subs in future gwks though

Done
Pukki?
oh yes
Current draft (in left to right playing order)
_______ ¦ Hdarecky ¦ ¦ Szcesny ¦
Bonnucci ¦ Rodriguez(p) Kjaer ¦ Alioski(p) ¦ Torres ¦
Chiesa ¦ Eriksen(p) ¦ Malinovski ¦ Torres ¦ Jota
_______ ¦ Lukaku(p) Wind ¦ Depay(p) ¦ ¦
Why not Donnarumma + Bednarek instead of Bonucci and Szcesny? Saves you 0.5 that way.
Also any concern about Wind’s minutes?
because of ordering.
Hdarecky isnt 100%, and playing AFTER Italy is a problem for twisting.
Wdym by not 100%? As in not nailed?
Like it minus one thing, p Torres. Your punts need to be one of the first games, bringing him in will be risky
I think you're wrong on Denayer not being nailed.
He's young and Belgium have an old defense. They aren't going to start x3 30+ CBs surely in Vermaelen, Vertonghen and Alderweireld.
And Vermaelen plays in Japan compared to Denayer for Lyon.
Wind didn't even come on as a sub yesterday. Bummer!
Krul / Cekir (or whichever Turkey keeper starts)
Kjaer – Denayer – Pau Torres – Bednarek – Alioski
Jota – Ferran Torres – Mount – Alaba – Soucek
Mbappe – Lukaku – Depay
Any 6.5s better than Soucek? Obviously I have FPL-tinted glasses.
Plenty of good 7s around.
Beyond my budget 😀
Don’t like Italy?
At 6.5 I’m a big fan of Vlasic, if you can past that England fixture of course
I just don't really see anyone worth the money. I think they are being over-selected as they are in the first game.
Playing all 3 games in Italy is a big plus. Defence is justified, they have about 10 CSs in a row now. Their Attack is a very overrated though
Interesting, didn't know the home game factor. May plump for Chiesa due to captaincy if he starts too. Thanks.
How does this team look for gw1 only
Krul hradecky
Kjaer maehle torres denayer wijnal
Kdb shaqiri berardi alaba 7.0
Cr7 lukaku depay
KDB unlikely to be fit for week 1. Spread the funds or look at Eriksen maybe
Bilva v Jota…
Will Jota start 2 games in a row with Felix sitting on the sidelines?
I think Jota offers something different to Felix that complements the team. I think he will surely start if fit especially since Felix was struggling to get into the Atletico team at the end of the season.
Would be much easier if Jota didn’t get that injury end of season… Jota also dangerous off the bench so maybe not the worst outcome if he’s possibly benched
First draft.
Hradecky – Stekelenburg
Bonucci – Maehle – Kjaer – Hinteregger – Denayer
Chiesa – Eriksen – Zielinski – Olmo – Gundogan
Kalajdzic – Kane – Lewandowski
MD1 Captains: Chiesa / Eriksen / Kane / Lewandowski / Gundogan
Seeing loads of teams without Kane in there…
Did none of you see him win the golden boot in 2018?? Also the fixtures couldn't be better
Can get for Matchday 2 & 3 when fixtures are better.
Didn't we lose to Croatia in the world cup
Yeah they're a good team and sometimes teams lose to good teams without the striker scoring. And Kane had chances that match too. So croatia then Scotland and the Czechs, I'm not playing fantasy euros so don't know the other fixtures or options in strike but Kane in a vacuum seems a great option
have you seen England recently?
Kane is the ultimate flat track bully. He should get something against Scotland
Any thoughts on this squad?
Hradecky Krul
Rodriguez Kjaer Denayer Wijndal Fonte
Chiesa Eriksen F.Torres Alaba Jota
Lukaku Wind Ronaldo
Like the keepers.
Rodriguez isn't as attacking as he once was.
Midfield not bad considering. Does Jota start? Does Alaba have goal threat?
Forward line looks good.
Overall, decent. 7/10
Had a question regarding transfers for Fanteam. The rule states no transfers for Finals, is this limited to free transfers or includes even hits?
No transfers at all.
You have to take your team from the semi finals into the finals as well.
Wow that's rough. U bet on the wrong teams could be fielding only 5/6 players. Also any clarity on budgets for KO's?
whats the general thoughts on chip strat, did this team below with limitless in GW2 as the strat, is that good?
Hradecky
Kjaer Denayer Wijndal Hinteregger
Berardi Alaba Soucek
Lukaku Kane Ronaldo
Krul F.Torres P.Torres Jota
Looks good, not sure on Soucek or Alaba for points but rest look good.
Hows this looking
Hradecky – Donurumma
P.Torres – Kjaer – Wijndal – Alioski – Benderak
Eriksen – Chiesa (1) – Mount – F.Torres(4) – D.Jota(5)
Lukaku(2) – Depay(3) – Pukki
Are there any Spain defenders (or even a keeper) who are nailed?
The hope is for Pau Torres, one to keep an eye on for sure.
This
If the first comment is a 'hope for Pau Torres', then no is the answer to your question 😀
Surprised there's few mentions for Yannick Carrasco around. Had a great season with Atleti, is versatile and can bring in some decent attacking returns
Who are the value mids in the official game? Looking for a solid fifth mid (5-6 mil ideally) and struggling with this one. Currently stretching to Soucek but would like to save a bit of cash…
Jorginho or maybe Alaba but Alaba sometimes plays LB.
Jorginho on pens?
Yeah he's gonna steal pens away from Immobile which makes me not want Immobile now lol.
Feel free to join my euro 2000 league, thanks.
78OLL5RC02
A) Kane, Depay, Elmas & Alaba
B) CR7, Wijnaldum, Elmas/Alaba & 7-7.5m FWD
Really struggling with the budget forwards upto 7.5m.
Feel like going with 3 x 10m striker up top but will have to sacrifice CR7.
3x10m strikers gives you 3 chances at captain while CR7 plays on last day and one of your captains should have already hauled so it's risky whether to switch captain to him or not.
Yeah that's a problem I see with CR7 I might not even need to captain him and if that happens he's probably not worth the price tag. Will want Kane & Depay for the Matchday 3 games anyways I feel.
Yeah playing on last day plus tough third game makes CR7 not appealing.
