Managers participating in UEFA Champions League (UCL) Fantasy 2025/26 can now access a whole range of UCL StatsBomb data from the past two seasons – and this one!

It’s one of the many perks of being a Fantasy Football Scout ‘Chief Scout’.

Just in terms of data alone, managers can already access stats from the Champions League, Premier League and Saudi Pro League. World Cup qualifying info will soon be added ahead of next summer’s tournament, too.

And there’s all the usual extras, too, such as the Fixture Ticker, transfer planner, points projections, Rate My Team, Defensive Contribution (DC) data, Captaincy Matrix, Gameweek Highlights page and more.

Sign up via the image below!

HOW TO ACCESS UCL DATA

Once logged in, simply select ‘UEFA Champions League’ from the drop-down menu.

WHAT YOU’LL GET

Here, you’ll find ‘Player Stats’ and ‘Player Profiles’.

Below is a selection of the player stats available from 2024/25 UCL.

Non-penalty shots (npShot):
Key passes (KP):
Non-penalty expected goals (npxG):
Expected assists (xA):
Defending stats, inc StatsBomb ball recoveries (BR) and tackles (Tk):

You can also access individual player profiles, as below.

We’ll have plenty of coverage on UCL Fantasy in preparation for the big kick-off, as well as articles throughout the season.

If you’re new to the game or just need a reminder of the rules, check out our ‘how to play’ guide here.

For everything else, bookmark our UCL Fantasy 2025/26 comprehensive guide for content as it’s added.

    Afternoon all,

    Finally feeling pleased with my WC team;

    Raya
    Virgil Munoz Senesi
    Salah(c) Gakpo Semenyo Reijnders
    Pedro Mateta Gyokeres

    Dubravka VdV King Rodon + 1.3 ITB

    Plan is to keep Salah for Burnley(a) and Everton(H), assess, and then bring in Haaland for Salah depending on how things go over next couple.

    Sound like a good plan?

    Thanks!

      Decent plan. I'd try and get both Salah and Haaland, if I was on WC this GW though.

        I know, I know.. That's what I've been toying with, but it does completely unbalance your team.

        Would need to downgrade keeper and 3 defenders at least

          Gakpo likely a mins risk this GW onwards so could get funds there...

          Haalands putting up ridiculous XG in a team that's lost its last two matches and look iffy.
          Salah's scraping returns in difficult fixtures in a new look attack that's scoring goals yet still gelling
          Too early to tell which one/both needed. Easier to have both and then downgrade if necessary

        Salah not worth 14.5. He's been in poor form for months.

        No one in the game is worth 14.5 if you dont captain them. So you should only own one.

    Here's a fun one, in 2023/24, Ange's first season, this was the points ranking of defenders 4 GWs in, adjusted for defcons:

    1 Romero  TOT 29
    2 Andersen  CRY 29
    3 Udogie  TOT 25
    4 Zouma  WHU 23
    5 Boly  NFO 22
    6 Cash  AVL 21
    7 Estupinan  BHA 21
    8 Disasi  CHE 19
    9 Gusto  CHE 18
    10 Saliba  ARS 18
    11 Ake  MCI 17
    12 Aurier  NFO 17
    13 van de Ven  TOT 17
    14 Porro  TOT 16

    Notably Porro missed GW1 and Emerson Royale who played instead got a 8 pointer and so Porro would have been on 24 if you add that

    Would be peak FPL if we all sell Forest assets and then they actually return vs. likes of Burnley and Sunderland after the disaster start under Nuno!

      The term "peak fpl" is massively overused, and I blame Harry for that. A much better way to say it is "typical fpl".

      Nothing that I've seen
      I still think it's pretty likely he's fine, he was walking around Notting Hill Carnival fine on the bank holiday and it felt like it was a little bit of a tactical injury to get him out of the England team to give him a proper rest after the pressures of the Club World Cup

              @Kanegaroo - Thanks for pointing out the obvious. I was really asking why go for Mateta when JP is the same price, in better form, and playing for a better team that scores more goals?

          I wouldn't want double Nottm Forrest at the back even before they appointed Ange P as their new manager.

          If you always play with 5 defenders, then solid. But, bit risky to get always cleansheets. I would let to play with 3 premium defs, like Virgil Munoz Cucu other 2 go to downgrade for Diakite, Diouf, Cash (good fixtures), Guehi&Richards. And upgrade one forward for Mateta or JP.

          ballsy but good to see a different strategy

          The 5 DEFs should combine for 30 points each week................on average

            Haha thanks, i'm not sold on it I'm not going great. Verbruggen out likely not worth a hit either? Can go a bit longer with no Haaland?

            Nope, but I’d probably get JPedro in for Watkins

            Anybody planning really far ahead? Nothing is certain so early but thinking WC gw7 to Haaland-Isak-Gyo and then in gw9 switch Haaland to JP in order to get Palmer and Saka for good fixtures.

            Probably doing Sarr to Paqueta with FT.

            Is Neco to Munoz worth a -4? Or just play Van de Ven instead.

              play VDV, juicy fixtures for Neco ahead

              It might pay off but then VDV might haul too. I’d hold.
