With almost all professional football shut down by the coronavirus pandemic, we’re jumping on the eSoccer bandwagon with Ultimate QuaranTeam predictions.
League Two outfit Leyton Orient have hit the headlines by organising this FIFA 20 tournament, which has attracted interest from clubs across the globe.
A total of 128 teams from Europe, America, Australia and Africa signed up to compete in the charity event, with even some high-profile players getting involved.
Matches are being streamed live on Twitch and here’s our betting tips on which sides to look out for in the Ultimate QuaranTeam odds:
STANDARD LIEGE
RSCL ShadooW has represented Belgium’s Edevils after being crowned champion of that country last year and has already seen off another pro player in Fiorentina’s Giovhy69. Premier League midfielder Todd Cantwell of Norwich looks up against it when facing this opponent in this evening’s clash.
MIDDLESBROUGH
Boro fan Danny Taylor is another player from the pro FIFA circuits who is closing in on being one of the world’s top 20 virtual soccer stars. He declared on Twitter: “When I was younger, I always dreamed of representing my hometown club on the pitch, but I’ll settle for representing them in a charity tournament on the virtual pitch.”
ANGERS
IFY eSports pro Sneaky is representing the French club and looks capable of doing better than the mid-table Ligue 1 outfit can manage in real life.
WOLVES
Official Wanderers eSports pro Flavio got the nod ahead of other proven performers to represent the Molineux club and has not let them down.
MANSFIELD TOWN
FUT Champions verified player AC RedLac has impressed in a 6-1 win over Gent and a hard-fought triumph against Ajax.
PSV
The Dutch giants have a star name in aaygun96, who has already upset the odds by beating Shellzz of Man City 4-0 in a replay.
Reflecting on the event, Leyton Orient CEO Danny Macklin commented: “This provides a fantastic opportunity to play a small part in providing some engaging content with football fans at this very difficult time.
“Furthermore and perhaps even more importantly it’s a chance to raise much needed funds for EFL clubs and two phenomenal causes.
“On behalf of Leyton Orient FC we want to thank everyone for their support and we very much wish everyone well.”
