Champions League

The best players to sign and captain for UCL Fantasy Matchday Five

The business end of the UEFA Champions League group stages brings us some mixed fixtures in Matchday Five.

Six teams have already qualified for the knockout stages, but there are some important battles to take place before we know who the other 10 competitors for the second round. 

Form and qualification will come into play a lot more over the next two weeks so, with that in mind, here is a look at what to expect in UCL Fantasy and who to back ahead of this week’s fixtures. 

Captains Sensible

Tuesday, December 1

Sensible

As we have come to learn from playing Fantasy Premier League, if in doubt, give the armband to Mohamed Salah (€11.6m). Liverpool know that victory against Ajax can see them qualify for the knockout stages and will not want to leave it until the last Matchday. 

Salah needs no introduction, but with a goal narrowly disallowed against Brighton at the weekend and nailed-on penalties after James Milner’s (€6.0m) injury, he may well take responsibility for qualification into his own hands. 

Differential

I really struggled to find a pick here. I have plumped for the starting striker in what is the only plum fixture of the night on paper. Atalanta have been in poor form domestically, but after his performances in Matchday One and Two and their great win against Liverpool, I’ve placed my faith in Duvan Zapata (€9.7m). 

Opponents Midtjylland are yet to pick up a point in the group stages and Gian Piero Gasparini will know that a win will do wonders for their chances of qualification. Zapata has been their talisman so far in the competition and will lead the line again on Tuesday. 

Wednesday, December 2

Sensible

This has to be Erling Haaland (€11.0m). A win will see Dortmund not only qualify, but be guaranteed group winners. Haaland is the top scorer of the group stages so far, with back-to-back braces taking him to six goals in four games. No-one seems to be able to stop the Norwegian wonder-kid and Dortmund should comfortably have the quality to beat Lazio. 

Differential

With five goals so far in the competition and his late red card on Saturday ruling him out of the next league game, Alvaro Morata (€9.0m) should get the nod up front for Juventus against Dynamo Kiev. 

While the Italian giants have been thoroughly uninspiring so far this season, Morata has been their saving grace on more than one occasion and Dynamo have been poor throughout the competition and struck badly by injury and positive coronavirus (COVID-19) tests. 

Who to bring in?

My rule here is to back players and teams who still have something to play for. The big sides which traditionally fill our teams have mostly qualified by this stage and will be heavily rotating, as we’ve seen with Bayern Munich leaving Robert Lewandowski (€12.0m), Manuel Neuer (€6.0m) and Leon Goretzka (£7.6m) at home for their trip to Madrid. 

Atletico Madrid know that they have to beat Bayern to leave qualification in their own hands and if they are to win, João Félix (€9.0m) will be involved. Borussia Dortmund need a win against Lazio to secure their qualification, with flying full-back Rafa Guerreiro (€6.0m) and attacking midfielder Gio Reyna (€6.5m) both top picks who look sure to start. 

Atalanta have been in poor form domestically, but last seasons quarter-finalists have two must win fixtures on the horizon. Wing-back pairing Hans Hateboer (€4.9m) and Robin Gosens (€5.5m) showcased their prowess at both ends against Liverpool and will be instrumental in any success the Bergamo side have from here on in. 

The teams in Group B and Group H still have all to play for, with PSG and Real Madrid among their ranks. Karim Benzema (€10.5m) is back fit and will be at the heart of Real Madrid’s action in Donetsk, the same defence which Borussia Mönchengladbach scored ten past over Matchdays Three and Four. 

Gladbach themselves come into this game in top form and Alassane Plea (€8.2m) and Marcus Thuram (€8.7m) will look to take advantage of an Inter Milan defence which looks far shakier than their recent form suggests. 

Group H is really too close to call, but PSG should have the quality needed against Manchester United and Istanbul Basaksehir to regain form and qualify. Kylian Mbappe (€11m) and Neymar (€11.4m) have looked poor so far in the competition, but only months away from their Champions League final loss, I have faith that the two will carry this side to the knockouts. 

Who to avoid?

As I’ve mentioned above, this is a stage in the competition where the European giants take a back seat. Manchester City, Bayern Munich, Juventus, Barcelona, Chelsea and Sevilla have all qualified and expect both lacklustre performances and rotation as a result. 

Not too many injuries have been picked up since last week, with Eden Hazard (€9.4m) perhaps the biggest casualty. 

Good luck everyone.

    If Villa vs Newcastle is postponed is Grealish to Jota a good move or between to play bench fodder?

    Thanks.

    1. JBG
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      The fixture can still be played this GW.

    2. OLLY G
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      * better

    3. Peter Ouch
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Not for me
      Grealish is a season keeper

      1. Botman and Robben
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Same

        1. Flynny
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          I'm definitely keeping grealish

    4. Shineonme
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Be mad getting rid of Grealish. He's in my team for the rest of the season unless he gets injured

  2. Peter Ouch
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Can anyone tell me why do I keep have Rashford on my team?
    Is a move to Bruno for a hit worth it?

    1. OLLY G
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Definitely worth it imo. That being said, l would be more focused on getting in KDB if l didn't own him.

      1. Peter Ouch
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        have Raz

        1. tafrère
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Raz is no KDB.

  3. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Martinez got 1 point last night so would be no great loss if he didn't play on Friday.

    1. Peter Ouch
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      If that game will be postponed so you'll get his CS points later

  4. Slitherene
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Okay to save a FT?

    Forster* | Martinez*
    Robertson Justin Taylor Lamptey
    KdB Bruno Ziyech Soucek
    Vardy Richarlison
    | Grealish* Watkins* Lascelles*

    1. Peter Ouch
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Sure
      I am just afraid of Ziyech minutes with puli and havertz back

  5. Pep bites Kun
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Grealish -> KDB? Have the FT, but looking for a loan of about 4m. Good for it 😉

    1. OLLY G
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Lol

    2. Carefree Crew
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Ha! Ha! Ha! Great move.

      I've got a spare £1mil mate, happy to help, 🙂

      Just post your bank details including your 16 digit number, security code, expiry date.
      (Obviously don't do this)

    3. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Loan is fine, the interest costs -20 hits though 😆

  6. Karan14
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Have Martinez, Grealish & Wilson.

    Can be without a GK for a week no problem.

    Bissouma can come in for Grealish as I want to keep him long term.

    But Mitchell/Kilman is a problem if I want to keep Wilson assuming he's not tested positive.

    1. CONNERS
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Same 3 here.

      1. Karan14
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Might be a good time to cash in on Wilson if he has tested positive and shift to a 352 with Jota.

    2. CONNERS
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I'm already planning on going 3-5-2 but was hoping to keep Wilson until GW16 and use funds to upgrade Grealish to Son.

  7. ElliotJHP
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Shame Emi Martinez might miss out due to covid, a great opportunity for my back up keeper Jed Steer to prove his worth though

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Isn’t Steer out too in all options?

    2. Tinfoil Deathstar
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Very good

    3. Pep bites Kun
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Should have been top of page

  8. Botman and Robben
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    If the game gets cancelled, very many managers are going to miss Martinez' 1-2 points next GW.

    1. CONNERS
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      He was getting good scores early on before the masses bought him.
      The pressure must've got to him.

  9. LikeItLoveIt
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Well realistically do we think we'll hear if Newcastle villa will get postponed?

    1. Ozzy smith
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Considering the deadline is an hour and a half before kick off, I’d like to think so lol.

    2. Indpush
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Yes

    3. Poison Apple
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Game will happen unless the number of positive cases more than double for NC.

    4. LikeItLoveIt
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Aghh typo - *when realistically

      1. Indpush
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Within 24 hours

  10. faux_C
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Suddenly very glad I never make early transfers!

  11. Sz21
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Wilson -> Jimenez done last night in what is likely to be my most silly transfer this season.
    May just end up WC'ing now if the Newcastle game is postponed on Friday.
    Could do with some upgrades overall anyway.

    Thoughts on this?
    McCarthy.
    Cancelo, Chilwell, Justin.
    Bruno (c), Grealish, Jota, Son.
    DCL, Kane (vc), Wilson.
    Button, Ayling, Mitchell, Bissouma.
    0ft, 4.4m ITB

    1. Botman and Robben
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      You might want a City attacker. Why were you transferring Wilson out last night?

  12. The Train Driver
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    My rival has Martinez/Darlow as keepers 🙂

    1. Poison Apple
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Martinez will CS then

  13. Flynny
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    If villa is off, what on earth to do here please? 1.5mitb and 1ft....

    Cancelo and burke prob won't play either!!.......best to just remove watkins?

    Martinez
    Chilwell james cancelo lamptey (mitchell)
    Bruno kdb ziyech burke (grealish)
    Vardy dcl (watkins)

    Thanks

    1. Karan14
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Yes probably Watkins to Bamford.

      1. Flynny
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Cheers mate

    2. FC Hakkebøf
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Why wouldn't Cancelo play?

      1. Flynny
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Cos mendy seems to be no1 pick for left back now..... let's see what happens with city tonight..

      2. Slitherene
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        I think he plays vs Fulham

        1. Bram
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Agreed - I'm still viewing Cancelo as having been rested rather than dropped.

  14. King Kohli
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    If the Villa game is postponed, which Villa player would you remove?
    A. Martinez
    B. Konsa
    C. Steer

    Martinez Steer
    Chilwell Konsa Coufal Kilman Mitchell
    KDB Bruno Son Jota Anguissa
    Vardy DCL Bamford

    0 FT 1.9 Itb

    I think removing Steer even for a hit makes sense as it gets me a playing gk for this week and also freeing up a Villa spot to get Grealish/Watkins later on.

    1. ElliotJHP
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I'd consider removing Mitchell before Konsa

      1. King Kohli
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Removing Mitchell still leaves me with 3 Villa defensive assets blocking my route to Grealish or Watkins

        1. ElliotJHP
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Out of your options I'd go Steer then

          1. King Kohli
            • 11 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Cheers mate

    2. Karan14
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Steer

      1. King Kohli
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Thanks Karan

    3. Big boy Bowen
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I might just go Martinez to McCarthy and bank the profit.

      1. King Kohli
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Think Martinez might come in handy for the two dgws that Villa will likely have at some point

    4. FPL Theorist
      • 4 Years

      I agree, C

      1. King Kohli

        Thanks mate

    5. Botman and Robben

      D. Mitchell

      1. King Kohli
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        See my reply above regarding Mitchell

        1. Botman and Robben
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Seen, get Steer outta there then.

  15. LewanGOALski
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    OUT: Hamez or Ziyech?
    IN: KDB or Salah?

    1. Carefree Crew
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Hamez for KDB this week.

      I expect Pope to be back & they're better at home & expect them to want to respond after last week.

      Wolves do well against top 6.

      City fixtures long term also a factor.

    2. Peter Ouch
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      if pope is out then ziyech out for KDB

  16. La Roja
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    What to do here chaps?

    Martinez
    Robbo Zouma Justin
    Son pereira Ziyech Bruno
    Vardy Kane DCL

    Forster Lamptey Burke coufal

    1FT & 0.1m ITB

    A) Son Pereira ➡ Jota Mahrez -4
    B) Robbo Pereira ➡ KWP Mahrez -4
    C) other

    1. Botman and Robben
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Pereira + Kane -> KDB and cheap striker -4?

      1. La Roja
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Nay

        1. Botman and Robben
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          I see Kane is a keeper in your team.

    2. FPL Theorist
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Save FT, Mahrez is just chasing last week's points.

      1. La Roja
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        I’d rather to have KDB tbh but can’t fit him in

  17. Bennyboy1907
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Current team : 1.3ITB
    Martinez
    Robbo, Chillwell, Coufal (Lamptey, Mitchell)
    KDB, Bruno, Grealish, Zaha (Bissouma)
    Vardy, DCL, Bamford

    GW11: save transfer
    GW12: Zaha >>> Salah (c)
    Vardy >>> budget striker under 6.6

    1. FPL Theorist
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Yes

  18. tafrère
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    So it's Kane + Hamez > KDB + Wilson.

    Replace Hamez by Grealish and Wilson by Bamford if the Villa game is not played in GW11.

    Then GW12 either save or bring Grealish straight back for Son.

    Sounds decent.

    I could just do Grealish > Jota and keep the armband on Kane but KDB is too much of a worry.

    1. Pep bites Kun
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Curiosity - FTs or hits?

  19. FPL_Hazards
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Was keeping Martinez as good fixtures coming. If game is off, maybe better upgrading non playing keeper to Johnstone and that way you’ll have Martinez for his upcoming DGW/TGW.

  20. have you seen cyan
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Newcastle apparently are requesting a postponement for Fridays game, unlikely to be granted though

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Surely they've got enough U23s?

      1. Pep bites Kun
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Could turn out to be a good game then

    2. FPL_Hazards
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      They can postpone until Wednesday if you ask me

    3. Poison Apple
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      The premier league ppl are gonna tell them
      "Go take a cold shower n sleep n wake up... n its still not gonna happen"

    4. have you seen cyan
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I think Villa are already a game behind as it is, doubt the PL want them to be two games behind.

  21. Bobby Digital
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Who would you remove if the game is cancelled? Got 2FTs.

    A. Grealish
    B. Targett
    C. Watkins
    D. Lewis
    E. Cancelo

    1. FPL_Hazards
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      C to Antonio
      E to Dias

      1. Bobby Digital
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Antonio has Manutd?

    2. DRIZ ✅
      • 12 Years

      a

  22. RyanKent14
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    This team needing any treatment?
    Doing not bad in my mini league but any feedback welcome

    McCarthy
    Lamptey Chilwell Justin
    Mane Grealish Bruno Ziyech Son
    DCL Werner

    Forster Brewster KWP Mitchell

    2ft 0.2 inb

    1. Poison Apple
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Would consider mane -> KDB
      Then get use 2FT to upgrade another mf to salah

    2. Thunderbahçe
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Too much Chelsea ATM. I would trade Mane + Ziyech for KDB + Jota

  23. UnitednationsXI
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Was hoping to save FT for the first time this season but pretty clueless what to do if villa game is postponed and I don't have a playing bench. Suggestions with 0m itb and 1ft.

    Martinez
    Chilwell James Lamptey --- Lewis* Mitchell
    Kdb Son Grealish* Bruno -- Burke
    Watkins* Kane DCL

    A: grealish >> Zaha?
    B: cant see any other option. James + Mitchell >> Coufal + Dallas (-4)? hit not ideal but allows me field 11 and i always wanted to get rid of mitchell prior to the festive fixtures

    1. tafrère
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Grealish to Jota and/or Watkins to Bamford imo.

      A hit to bring Coufal and Dallas who play United and Chelsea isn't worth it.

    2. HashAttack
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Doubt if you will make points bringing in defenders vs ManU and Chelsea

  24. claretparrot
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    From a football fan point of view as opposed to FPL...
    If Newcastle can field a team and the game can go ahead safely, I really hope the EPL don't postpone it. I know luck plays a part but clubs surely have to share in the consequences if they allow themselves to become the centre of an outbreak. If everyone follows the protocols, it really shouldn't rip through a training ground the way it allegedly has at Newcastle.

    1. have you seen cyan
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      The premier league don’t want to set a precedent either, the request will be denied, they haven’t been hit that hard, I think it’s more staff who have COVID then actual players.
      Someone said earlier it could only be postponed if they didn’t have 14 players available, which they clearly will.

      1. claretparrot
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Agree on the precedent. There's some real perverse incentives at play if your two best players get it and you know a further 4 or 5 would lead to the game being called off...

          Yeah, the NFL made the Broncos play a game without a quarterback! They apparently had only themselves to blame.

            Sounds harsh, doesn't it. If you're testing twice a week though and you know you've got a case (or a few cases), it is possible to eradicate it from the training ground fairly quickly. Plenty of football clubs have done it as well as other sporting organisations.

      I think it possibly suits Villa better than the toon as it will allow Barkley more recovery time (they missed him in last nights game).

        Personally I think Villa would much rather play against 50% first XI and 50% U23s without Barkley, than full strength Newcastle with him

      i agree. bit harsh but covid should be treated as like 'injury'. Games dont postpone if you many in your team get injured

      As far as precedent is concerned that goes both ways. If other clubs have similar or worse problems they will always have to follow through on not allowing any postponements.

        If similar, yes, which is fine. If worse, no - then it wouldn't be a precedent

      We don't know even if or why an outbreak occurred the way it may have. Can't start a blame game until we know all the facts. Could turn out that all involved were abiding by protocol, but there were circumstances beyond those envisaged. In this case a team shouldn't/can't be unduly punished. A postponement in the event of road/air accident wouldn't be questioned - why this?

        You don't catch a virus by magic. One or two cases coming in from outside is bad luck. That has happened at plenty of other PL clubs too, but it's been shut down before spreading. For it to spread rapidly the way it allegedly has, either Newcastle's precautions aren't adequate or they haven't been observed properly.

    Grealish & Werner > Bamford & Bruno for -4?

    Martinez (Steer)
    Cancelo - Coufal - Lamptey (Dallas & Taylor)
    Salah - KDB - Grealish - Soucek (Burke)
    DCL - Kane - Werner

      would hold

        3 years, 3 months ago

        Okay, even if Grealish isn't going to play? I want to get Bruno into the team and only way to do that is to lose either Werner & Grealish, or Kane & Soucek?

      You really hope it's not fine, but just close enough to fine for the game to go ahead 😉

      Pretty much everyone in the same - or similar - boat. Just don't do anything for now and chill and see what happens.

    People with multiple Aston Villa and Newcastle players "The Game should go ahead, its a disgrace"
    People with 1/0 - "It should be cancelled, health and safety innit"

      Nah, chaos is always good. Bring it on.

      Nah dogg...

      Time to put the female Newcastle team on the field in EPL. I keep seeing on TV that womenz are just as good as men, probably better.

      EPL should show no mercy on Aston Villa and force them to play the Newcastle Women's team and suffer defeat. It will be a Disney movie in 2 years. With Dakota Fanning scoring the 5th goal. Then Jack Grealish (played by Zac Efron) will rage and then reluctantly acknowledge defeat.

      As long as Zaha is back I don't mind if it's cancelled : )

    The sensible decision would be to move the Villa game to Monday as the 5.30 slot is free, this allows Newcastle an additional 3 days of recovery.
    I know it might not be enough but its better then to completely postpone the game

      In terms of postponement, Newcastle's recovery time is not the EPL's concern. They will be worried about whether they can get the game on without risking onward transmission
