This article is part of a series: Asian Cup Fantasy Matchday 1: Tips, Pick, Captain, Team Selection
Best midfielders for Asian Cup Fantasy Matchday 1
Saleh Al Shehri (9.5m, Saudi Arabia) – 5/10
- he is not getting a lot of game time in club competitions for Al Hilal, but he is in solid form for Saudi Arabia
- 4G in last 2 games for Saudi Arabia
Mitchell Duke (10m, Australia) – 6/10
- the form is here for Australia main striker
- 3G + 1A in last 4 matches for Australia
Mehdi Taremi (11.5m, Iran) – 9/10
- another reliable fantasy asset from UCL Fantasy (he scored a lot of fantasy points for Porto last season) and from World Cup Fantasy 2022 (2G + 1A in 3 games)
- captaincy candidate
- plays on a different day than Son, so you can switch captaincy from Termi to Son, if Taremi fails to deliver points
Hwang Hee-Chan (10m, Kore Republic) – 6/10
- well, if you pick Son to your Fantasy team, you rather should pick other two forwards who play on different days, so you can switch the captaincy – that’s why Hwang is not really an option for us
- But when looking at him in isolation (not considering the captaincy switching), he would be great pick, as he is having excellent season in English Premier League with 10G + 3A
Son Heung Min (12m, Kore Republic) – 10/10
- a no-brainer pick
- Tottenham star can be your “safe” captaincy pick on each matchday
- 12G + 5A this season in premier League for Spurs, 3G + 1A in his last 3 games for Korea Republic
Almoez Ali (12m, Qatar) – 7/10
- the price tag can be too much, it will be hard to fit him in
- but he is in great form for Qatar, hattrick in their last match against Cambodia
- Qatar’s key player
