Peter Hartley

Although Jamshedpur FC have conceded seven goals this season, the damage could have been much bigger if Hartley wouldn’t have been at his best. The defender has been solid at the back and will possess a great headache against NorthEast United FC in the upcoming game. Hence, he is a must pick in your fantasy team.

Khassa Camara

Another player who’s a must pick in your fantasy team is Khassa Camara. He has been busy in the midfield and his ability to work as a mediator between strikers and defenders have helped the highlanders a lot. Hence, he is one of the players to watch out for in the upcoming fixture.

Nerijus Valskis

Saying that the Lithuanian striker has been the cornerstone of Jamshedpur FC would be an understatement.  Valskis has been terrific in the striking area and might well prove to be a headache for NorthEast United FC in the upcoming game. In fact, six of the seven goals done by Jamshedpur this season are under  Valskis’ belt.

Stephen Eze

Out of the six games played by the Spanish defender in the ISL 2020-21, he might have just scored one goal for the Red Miners but is really good when it comes to having good passing accuracy. Stephen Eze has a good pass accuracy of about 69 per cent. This player from Jamshedpur FC is a must-have on your Dream11 list.
