Ready to face Italy Laimer (undisclosed) hasn't been mentioned in the injury report and appears ready to start against Italy on Saturday.

Impact Laimer limped off Monday, but there's a chance that was simply cramping and he'll be good to go Saturday. He assisted in the opening match against North Macedonia, but he's managed just two shots and four chances created in three group matches, being subbed off early in all of them.

Limps off Monday Laimer had two shots (one on target) and a cross but limped off in the 72nd minute of Monday's match against Ukraine.

Impact Laimer battled a knee injury this past season and only returned in April, so the hope is that this injury isn't related. He started all three matches in group stages and if Austria advance, he may have to be replaced in the starting XI.

Gathers assist in opening game Laimer assisted once, created two chances, sent two crosses (one accurate) and made one tackle (none won) in the 3-1 win against North Macedonia on Sunday.

Impact Laimer was much better in his second start all season in the win Sunday. The midfielder had missed the entire season due to a knee injury, leaving very little in terms of expectations in the Euros. However, he managed to help on both sides of the ball and he eventually set up one of the goals for Austria. It remains to be seen what his role will truly be with the team. Although, if he starts, he is always worth the consideration.

Appears in friendly Laimer played for 62 minutes of Wednesday's friendly loss against England.

Impact Laimer only made three league appearances all season while returning from a knee injury but seems to be honing in on a return to full fitness just in time for the tournament. With a few different midfielders going through a similar process, it may not be fully clear who ends up starting in this area of the pitch for Austria. However, it's still Marcel Sabitzer, David Alaba and the attack which hold the most fantasy value from this group.
