Potential match-winners
- Rasmus Hojlund (Napoli) – Leads these squads with eight goals and a standout 48.65% shot accuracy, plus 18 big chance assists, showing both scoring and creative threat.
- Nikola Krstovic (Atalanta) – Seven goals and 13 chances created, his movement in the box is a constant problem for defences.
- Scott McTominay (Napoli) – Six goals from midfield, with an impressive 88.32% pass accuracy and 16 chances created, makes late runs into the box and provides a link between defence and attack. Will be crucial if he passes his late fitness test.
