The 2026/27 UEFA Champions League (UCL) gets underway on Tuesday – and so does the competition’s official Fantasy game.

To help give Fantasy Football Scout users an all-important edge, we are delighted to unveil our new UCL Fantasy Toolkit.

Available to Chief Scout Members, it’s full of useful information in one place.  

Here are some of the key ways our new UCL Fantasy Toolkit can help.

FIXTURE TICKER

Chief Scout Members have access to our new UCL Fantasy ticker.

Here, you can sort by difficulty, clean sheet % and projected goals for each club in every fixture.

The UCL Fixture Ticker can also help highlight potential buying and selling opportunities, as well as the best windows to play your chips.

DETAILED STATS FOR EVERY UCL PLAYER

UCL Fantasy managers can now analyse hundreds of stats for every UCL player.

This includes performances from each club’s domestic league.

There are filters for position and team, as well as many more ways to explore the data.

A player and team comparison provides even more detail to help with those 50/50 decisions.

POINTS PROJECTIONS

To help identify the best picks for every Matchday, our projected points can help managers see when a player’s prospects are expected to improve or decline.

This can help spot the best captains and differentials.

A DEDICATED DRAFT TOOL

This feature allows users to build and test different squad combinations, factoring in points projections, fixtures and more.

Here, you can sort players by position, price or team.

Various drafts can be saved under different names, which is especially useful ahead of Matchday 1.

TEAM RATER

Our team rater provides an instant assessment of your UCL Fantasy squad.

The tool generates an overall team rating, so it’s a quick and easy way to see how your current team stacks up before making any changes.

… AND MUCH MORE!

All of our UCL Fantasy articles are conveniently located in one place.

There are loads more useful widgets and tools to explore, too.

So, if you’re looking to build your initial squad, improve your latest draft or plan out your chip strategy, check out our new UCL Fantasy Toolkit.

    Wc time
    Tzsolakis/ Phillips
    Calafiori/ De Cuyper/ Dedic/ Konsa/Ajai
    Bruno/Palmer/ Stach/Sangare/ Yalcoure
    Haaland/ Isak/ Wissa

    1. Ze_Austin
      1 month, 14 days ago

      Pedro is still a better asset than Isak, imo

    2. bootsmanus
      1 month, 14 days ago

      This midfield could become a liability real soon… At least find the 0.5 to upgrade Yalcouye to a Gomez.

    3. PascalCygan

      I wouldn’t want Hull as a set and forget keeper. Good start for them but don’t think it’s sustainable

    4. _Greg
      1 month, 14 days ago

      What's your current team, remember you don't press the button until Saturday morning and take hits all week first.

    5. Unknown1

      Thanks for the advice guys. Very set on the midfield & forward line. Could change Tzsolakis to Kinsky suppose Tottenham will improve

    6. Unknown1

      Don’t fancy any double attack and prefer Palmer to Pedro and Isak best of pool assets

  2. PartyTime

    All of a sudden, FH 4 is starting to look attractive. My current team still looks good for it but maybe the FH will be better.

    The conundrum is that if you don't use it in GW 4, the other suitable week I think would be GW 7, but then, everyone has triple City already and Liv, Ars, Che fixtures don't appeal like GW 4.

    If you won't FH next gw, which week will you target?

    Thanks

    1. Ze_Austin
      1 month, 14 days ago

      GW12

      1. PartyTime
        1 month, 14 days ago

        Hahaha... You really dug through those fixtures. Though, I don't think FH 12 is ideal. Merseyside derby, Ars - Cty, Nfo - Che. Looks like a GW were we will be begging for goals on goal rush

        1. Ze_Austin
          1 month, 14 days ago

          There are options 🙂

    2. Bennerman
      1 month, 14 days ago

      Yes, very sudden. Couldn't see the fourth game of the season coming all summer

      1. The Knights Template

        Bennerman!

        1. Bennerman

          Ahoy there, mighty codpieced one

          1. The Knights Template
            1 month, 14 days ago

            I’m listening to Sister Double Happiness’ cover of Holiday in Cambodia! I’m in fine spirits!

            1. Bennerman
              1 month, 14 days ago

              I must seek that out

      2. _Greg
        1 month, 14 days ago

        Now this is a comment I can get behind.

      3. PartyTime
        1 month, 14 days ago

        Ludicrous comment.

  3. Supersonic_
    1 month, 14 days ago

    This season could get really interesting if Isak and Saka start firing alongside the likes of Bruno, Haaland, Palmer, Pedro etc.

    1. RN
      1 month, 14 days ago

      An in-form Saka, Isak, Palmer, etc make Haaland a waste of money.

      Eg:

      Saka, Palmer, Fernandes, Foden, Gross
      Pedro, Isak, DCL

      Easy to get that front eight. It includes a ton of captain options

      1. Supersonic_
        1 month, 14 days ago

        Yep

    2. Bennerman
      1 month, 14 days ago

      Yeah, really interesting, people scoring goals in football. I'll be interested to see how interesting it gets, when different players score goals in football etc

      1. _Greg
        1 month, 14 days ago

        Have you missed the point I wonder.

        1. Bennerman
          1 month, 14 days ago

          Interesting point Gregory, I wonder

          1. _Greg
            1 month, 14 days ago

            Je ne comprends pas.

      2. Supersonic_
        1 month, 14 days ago

        Lol

    Lost on last page

    On FH who would you rather have out of Haaland and Fernandes if you had to have one

    Any ideas would be appreciated

    1. PascalCygan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      1 month, 14 days ago

      Close one. I’ve got both in my non-FH team. There’s a world where I see Bruno getting a pen / other return but I’ve got VC on Haaland at the moment - United defence doesn’t look great and he’s lethal

    2. _Greg
      1 month, 14 days ago

      In Gw4 back the home side.

    3. Brosstan
      1 month, 14 days ago

      Bruno

  5. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    1 month, 14 days ago

    Does it look alright? No FTs

    Kinsky
    Califiori Dedic Kadioglu
    Bruno Palmer Semenyo Gross Sangare
    Haaland Pedro

    Dubravka Diop Egeli Thomas

    1. PascalCygan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      1 month, 14 days ago

      Yes, nice

    2. Warby84
      1 month, 14 days ago

      Except the keeper

        ^

    3. _Greg
      1 month, 14 days ago

      Wonder if you'll be selling Semenyo soon.

  6. PascalCygan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    1 month, 14 days ago

    Took the unusual step (for me at least) of moving early to sell Mbeumo last night, as I was already having to absorb a price drop from Wirtz (next to go but Fulham next). Will reassess after this week obviously but, with GW5 fixtures looking decent, I’m hoping to hold my WC until GW6 international break at least. Seem reasonable?

    0FT 0.5ITB
    Kinsky Rushworth
    Calafiori Maguire Ajer Thomas Van Ewijk
    BrunoF Rogers Wirtz Foden Slater
    Haaland JP DCL

    Cheers

    1. _Greg
      1 month, 14 days ago

      I think I'd rather of kept Mbeumo and sold Wirtz after that disgusting performance last night.

      1. PascalCygan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        1 month, 14 days ago

        Ha, thanks. He’s been so frustrating!

    2. Jimrod™
      1 month, 14 days ago

      All good I think, I did same with Mbuemo, decent fixture this week but City next might bench him anyway... Got Gomez for Brighton to replace (I've gone strong overall team, no Haaland or Bruno so he'd be benched most likely) which frees up funds to upgrade Tzolis to Saka depending on how things progress! A Haaland missed pen then subbed off at 50 mins would be great for me today after (C) Isak's double last night! 😀

      1. PascalCygan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        1 month, 14 days ago

        Ha! In the nicest possible way, I hope not as I’ve got the TC on Haaland! Well done on the Isak captaincy - good call

  7. Warby84
    1 month, 14 days ago

    Leno (Trafford)
    Gvardiol De Cuyper Calafiori (Ajer Muharemovic)
    Cherki Szobo Sangare Palmer Tzolis
    Haaland Pedro (Walli-E)

    2m itb

    Tempted either;
    Tzolis —-> Rogers (Triple up)
    Walli—-> Wissa

    Thoughts?

    1. bootsmanus
      1 month, 14 days ago

      Both viable, but Im not a big triple up kinda guy. Would go Wissa, did me well in the past and feels talismanic.

    2. GoonerSteve
      1 month, 14 days ago

      I am considering Cherki to Rogers for the triple up also.

      1. GoonerSteve
        1 month, 14 days ago

        But I already have Wissa

    3. _Greg
      1 month, 14 days ago

      If you've already bench boosted I'd stick with the dead slot and upgrade Tzolis to Rogers.

      1. PascalCygan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        1 month, 14 days ago

        Agree

  8. One for All
    1 month, 14 days ago

    How did Gakpo look?

    I watched the highlights and saw 2 assists, was wondering if it's better to get him over Szoboszlai?

    Thanks

    1. Holmes
      1 month, 14 days ago

      As always, does the job in final third which is important for FPL.

    2. GoonerSteve
      1 month, 14 days ago

      He looked decent. Szoboszlai had a couple of decent shots and nearly won a penalty, but if he plays, Gakpo looks the more likely to bag points, imo.

    3. Gizzachance
      1 month, 14 days ago

      Better than Wirtz !(owner!)

      1. GoonerSteve
        1 month, 14 days ago

        Wirtz must have been frustrating to watch as an owner. Kept losing the ball, or getting flagged offside.

        1. Gizzachance
          1 month, 14 days ago

          Yep, gone for me now, owned him first 5 weeks last season, lesson learnt

      2. One for All
        1 month, 14 days ago

        Lol yeah I have Wirtz, terrible...

        1. One for All
          1 month, 14 days ago

          Thanks guys

        2. Gizzachance
          1 month, 14 days ago

          Yep

    4. _Greg
      1 month, 14 days ago

      He's a mins risk, exactly like the whole City midfield it seems!

  9. CRAZY TRAIN
    1 month, 14 days ago

    Damn, was hoping Wissa would rise last night to enable Wissa > Barry and Cherki > Rogers. Odds are that both Wissa and Barry will rise tonight.

    1. GoonerSteve
      1 month, 14 days ago

      I'm considering Cherki to Rogers also. Triple price rise for Cherki is putting me off slightly, but his minutes will surely be affected by the signings, and Rogers looks very lively, with Hull up next.

    2. _Greg
      1 month, 14 days ago

      You're not explaining the third part, why you need the extra money for which player.

  10. Danstoke82
    1 month, 14 days ago

    Which one would be more important on a WC?

    A) Raya (own Calafiori and Konsa) could downgrade to Verbruggen

    B) Isak (own Szoboszlai) could downgrade to Wissa/Barry/Franco/DCL

    Thanks in advance.

    1. _Greg
      1 month, 14 days ago

      Liverpool fixtures aren't too great soon, Isak's off on 63 or whatever, the answer right now this second is A

      1. Danstoke82
        1 month, 14 days ago

        Really appreciate this feedback

  11. Nomadic Spurs
    1 month, 14 days ago

    This is all about the UEFA Champions League, yet people still post 'Rate my EFL Team'. Strange.

    1. Nomadic Spurs
      1 month, 14 days ago

      FPL Team

      1. _Greg
        1 month, 14 days ago

        It's because 98% of people are her for FPL, it's the original and best. I've played fantasy football for 26 years and I've never played Sky or UCL Fantasy.

        1. GoonerSteve
          1 month, 14 days ago

          This

    2. _Greg
      1 month, 14 days ago

      I never see any championship RMT's to be fair.

      EPL on the other hand...

    3. marcus2704
      1 month, 14 days ago

      The topic does not dictate what people talk about within it.

    4. Brosstan
      1 month, 14 days ago

      No one cares about the artilces. Are you new?

  12. Pino
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Wanted to share my experiance yesterday. I started the game without Haaland and was planing to play the FH this GW so I can bring him in. I was on a -44p hit when my ipad started to work poorly the last 10 min before the dedline due to bad internet connection. I panicked. The transfers I wanted to make didnt went trough and I thought I deactivated the FH.

    This is the team I saw when The game wa updated. I had 6.7 mil in the bank. FH used.

    Kinsky (Tzolakis)
    White Gvardiol Kalafiori (De Cuyper Egan)
    Palmer Szoboszlai Gakpo Cherki Sangare
    Wissa Isak(C) (JPedro)

    At that moment I was raging. I was seriously considering just to deleate my account and stop playing. It doesnt help either that Im on vecation and now everything felt destroyed. By a struck of luck somehow I managed 40p from Liverpool players. I know Haaland will destroy med today, but at lest for a few hours I can try to relax and calm down. To compensate the mistake i play 30 euroes on Haaland scoring 2 or more goals. If it works out I will get around 80 euroes back.

    1. GoonerSteve
      1 month, 14 days ago

      Sounds painful. Hope it works out for you. Off to a great start with the Liverpool players.

    2. _Greg
      1 month, 14 days ago

      I hope you lose your money! :mrgreen:

      1. Pino
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        1 month, 14 days ago

        Me too. The positive thing about it is that I didnt use my WC. It gives me more time to evaluate Liverpool and other players.

        My team for GW 4

        Kinsky (Roefs)
        White Calafiori Muharemovic (Maguire Thomas)
        Bruno Szoboszlai Mbuemo Semenyo
        JPedro Thiago Isak

        2FT

    3. Conners
      1 month, 14 days ago

      It happens.

      I accidentally activated BB a couple of years ago in GW1 with a non-playing / fodder bench.

      If Cherki hogs the goals against Coventry, you could yet have the last laugh.

      1. The Knights Template
        1 month, 14 days ago

        I got -1 on a bench boost a few years ago! Tis a true story!

  13. Coupes
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    1 month, 14 days ago

    Stach or Shade on WC?

    Already have Mamadou Sangaré

    1. _Greg
      1 month, 14 days ago

      I'd get Schade, even Brentford's tough fixtures don't look so tough for them right now.

  14. Dr Funk
    1 month, 14 days ago

    Morning,

    Foden, Gakpo and Szoboszlai in a 3-5-2

    Or

    Isak, Elanga and Stach in a 3-4-3

    ?

  15. Tommy Tynans Left Shin Pad
    1 month, 14 days ago

    I think my next moves stem from whether I think Palmer and Saka score more than Bruno and Tzolis. Surely the former wins, right? So:

    1. Palmer & Saka
    2. Bruno & Tzolis

    1. Brosstan
      1 month, 14 days ago

      The former win because Tzolis is a garbo pick. Not really a fair comparison

      1. Tommy Tynans Left Shin Pad
        1 month, 14 days ago

        It's who is in my team......

        1. Brosstan
          1 month, 14 days ago

          Remove tzolis for a good pick and B wins with 1 transfer

  16. jonnybhoy
    1 month, 14 days ago

    On wildcard for GW4. Initial draft below. 0ITB. Any changes you would make?

    Raya 4m
    Gvardiol Konsa Thiaw De Cuyper Egan
    Saka Palmer Sangare Gross Szoboslai
    J Pedro Wissa Haaland

    1. GoonerSteve
      1 month, 14 days ago

      I played mine last week and for me, Bruno was essential. I went with:

      Verbruggen (Steele)
      De Cuyper, Calfiori, Hall (Egan, Diop)
      Bruno, Palmer, Cherki, Sangare (Slater)
      Haaland, Pedro, Wissa

      Considering Cherki to Rogers this week. Then maybe De Cuyper to Konsa soon also.

      1. GoonerSteve
        1 month, 14 days ago

        Your team is much more balanced than mine.

      2. Bennerman
        1 month, 14 days ago

        He's not on about what you went with last week, wtf response

        1. GoonerSteve
          1 month, 14 days ago

          He asked what changes we'd make so i shared my wildcard - ie the changes I'd make. Calm down fella.

          1. Bennerman
            1 month, 14 days ago

            Someone throw this gentleman a life jacket

            1. GoonerSteve
              1 month, 14 days ago

              Lol

      3. jonnybhoy
        1 month, 14 days ago

        Thanks for the response haha.. i do have fomo on no bruno but i agree i feel my team becomes more unbalanced and prefer more captaincy options. Having both palmer and saka gives flexability to get bruno back if needed

        1. GoonerSteve
          1 month, 14 days ago

          Yes I think the additional flexibility you have could well pay off. Its a very nice looking team.
