World Cup Fantasy Matchdays and deadlines

We run through the World Cup Fantasy Matchdays and deadlines. With the help of the Official FIFA World Cup website, we give you some of the most important details in your preparation for the new World Cup Fantasy game.

The World Cup is a very intense and aggressive campaign in terms of timescale. For that reason, it will be vital to know when Matchdays finish and when the deadlines are. This can hugely benefit fantasy managers when it comes to planning for the fantasy campaign ahead.

Matchdays

As we can see the gap in between Matchday 1, Matchday 2 and Matchday 3 are extremely small. This means fantasy managers have just hours to get their teams ready through the group stages. We can also see that as the tournament progresses, the time in between each Matchday increases. This gives managers even more time to prepare for the next Matchday.

Deadlines

What we can’t see in the graphic above is how much time there is between each matchday, primarily between the group stage matches. There is just 15 hours between the end of Matchday 1 and the beginning of Matchday 2.

There is just 20 hours between the end of Matchday 2 and the beginning of Matchday 3. There is also just 20 hours between the end of Matchday 3 and the beginning of the last 16. As we progress into the finals, the gap between the rounds extends to several days.
