Why we choose him?
The main appeal of Xhaka isn't about scoring a hat-trick; it's about guaranteed involvement. Here is the breakdown of his role and the data behind it.
1. Switzerland's Engine & Captain
You can't question his importance to the team. Xhaka is the "personification of Switzerland: sturdy, dependable, and precise" and is the team's captain . He will be taking part in his fourth successive World Cup at age 33 and still "pulls the strings for the Swiss" . He is a guaranteed starter, which is the most important asset in fantasy.
2. Multiple Routes to Points (The "Floor" Argument)
Xhaka's primary value in this format comes from a unique scoring rule: midfielders earn 1 fantasy point for every 3 tackles they make . As a deep-lying playmaker, he racks up tackles consistently.
Additionally, he is on penalty duty for Switzerland . This gives him a solid chance at a 6-point goal even when playing defensively.
3. Solid Matchday 1 Clean Sheet Odds
Switzerland faces Qatar in MD1. The Clean Sheet odds for Switzerland are 57.9% , meaning they are highly likely to shut out Qatar . As a midfielder, Xhaka doesn't directly get clean sheet points, but a strong defensive performance means more possession and more opportunities for him to control the game.
