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.

    I guess Wirtz to Rogers is obvious now before any price change.

          The Scout predictor is fairly vague. What's the difference between 'likely' to rise and 'very likely' to rise?

      Timber, if he starts, will pretty much have to get a cs just to recoup your 4 points. Hard to profit from that one.

    Do you think it is worth booking in a transfer on a WC just to have Palmer for a week?

    WC4: Palmer (HUL) + 2.4m
    GW5: Palmer (bre) ➡ Bruno (ful)

    I know all the cool kids aren't picking Bruno, but I kinda want him for captaincy in 6, 8, 10, 12, 14. There are some amazing cheap players this season that make Haaland & Bruno viable long term imo.

            Yea GW 7 is the bad one. No good alternarive captains. Im probably FHing that week.

            I took your advice on board and went Gabriel ... honestly cant see any single popular player + 1 where Gabriel + 1 isnt a better option value wise.

              It’s not a guarantee Gabriel is as good as last season but if he is, then it’ll be hilarious when he starts banging in headers and people can’t get to him. It’s always happens with him and that’s why I started with him tbh, whether it’s the right decision we’ll see

              I’m guessing you’re on triple Arsenal defence?

                Yes triple Ars def. I already had Gab/Cala. Added Raya on WC. Didnt feel optimal to start with triple ars this GW but its a super long term strategy. And they could clean against anyone.

          Please note that when playing either a Wildcard or your Free Hit chip, any saved free transfers are retained for the following Gameweek. If you had 2 saved free transfers, you will still have 2 saved free transfers the Gameweek after playing the chip.

      38/38 starts, over 12 defcons per game, set pieces, and maybe even

      Not the sexiest pick, but I think he'll be great value in the long-term.

          Garner takes right-footed set pieces, and KDH takes left-footed ones.

          Very rare you get someone that takes set pieces from both sides. Szobo is a unicorn.

    Bruno has averaged 8.1 pts per 90 under Carrick (21 matches)

    For reference Haaland averaged 7.3 last season.

    I wonder if Tielemans improves things further. Bruno was playing like a striker against Ipswich.

      Rogers

      Iraola on his intention to rotate his offensive players:

      “For me, wingers, forwards, I always tell them that they don't need to give us 90 minutes. When you are exhausted, it is good news because we have taken everything from you and someone else will come in. We have to use the subs, especially in forward positions... For offensive players, it's not mandatory that you play the whole game. Once you are done, we can change you. I think it's the best way, and they have to understand it like this."

    Wirtz to Gakpo (-4) for just 1 GW to avoid the price change is surely not worth it?

    Ndiaye + Tzolis to Rogers + (max) 5.0

    Who would you go for? I’m thinking Slater and banking the .5

    Think I’ll probably wildcard this week but now the price changes have calibrated it looks like only mbuemo drop affects me tonight, but many will tomorrow, so should I :
    A) do mbuemo & Thiago > palmer & wissa tonight for free and then if wildcard do it after games tomorrow
    B) do nothing and wait to see the games tomorrow first

    Current team for GW4:
    Verbruggen
    Ballard / white / calafiori
    Tzolis / semenyo / Bruno / mbuemo
    Thiago / haaland / Isak

    Lammens / le fee / Hume / rodon

      Wow, is that team affordable? Looks out of budget?

        Just quick math in my head and might be off on certain players by .5 it looks like it adds up to 107 or so.

    Feel like I need Pedro yet not sure how to fit in - and I have a problematic bench. Ideas? 0.5m in bank. Thanks

    I transferred out Wirtz for KDH and then played free hit.

    When my team reverts back in a week I still have KDH correct?

        Why does it lock free hit in then only if you make a transfer?

        Like what is the point if the transfer is irrelevant?

      Just think about what a kookball Cherki is and that there's likely to be something that happens that will change his status.

        I keep telling myself that - the only way I can get there is Semenyo -> Cherki.. but that feels wrong
