The 2024/25 UEFA Champions League (UCL) campaign returns today – and so does the competition’s official Fantasy game.

Here, our resident European football expert Louis/FPL Reactions – who co-hosts the official UCL Fantasy podcast – gives us his Matchday 2 team reveal.

I had a fairly good first round after picking up 101 points in Matchday 1. Nearly half of those points came from Harry Kane (€10.5m) as he collected 21 points against GNK Dinamo – and that total was doubled as I handed him the armband.

CHIP STRATEGY

In terms of strategy, my plan remains to use the Wildcard ahead of Matchday 6 to navigate the big fixture swings. I’ll deploy Limitless in Matchday 8 as we will have access to all of the line-ups before the deadline.

I’m very much set on that but obviously, if I come across numerous issues in my team in the lead-up to those weeks, then I will consider changing that strategy.

      I'm probably going Haaland (most will) but might pick Havertz (I don't own Saka)

      When was Saka last haul?

      Lots of arsenal assets capable of attacking returns in that team

      Haaland hoovers up most at city

    I don't think I've ever had a successful WC.

    But somehow I hope and convince myself I'm doing the right thing.

    My original team would have got me 57.
    My WC 43.

    Is Robertson to Gvardiol a good move or just a luxury?
