Fantasy Team Picks
Goal-Keeper
The only way Celta Vigo can salvage something from this tie is if they bolster their backline. And as longas Ruben Blanco is in between the sticks, the club will be quietly confident of making life tricky for the home team.
Defenders
Atletico Madrid’s backline has been rocked off late but despite that, the club remains the best defensive setup in the competition. The team has let in a frugal 10 goals this season to see us repose faith in Felipe Monteiro, Stefan Savic and Jose Gimenez.
Midfielders
Although Atletico Madrid are currently reeling under a slew of COVID cases, as long as Marcos Llorente is plying his skill set for the club, the team can compensate for the lack of attack options.
Saul Niguez and Koke will also be inducted in our setup, two names who have controlled the park with their quick ball movements.
Celta Vigo’s duo on the other hand comprises of Nolito and Brais Mendez, two names who have each helped themselves to the four goals apiece.
Strikers
With Atletico Madrid having shown jitters at the back off late, Iago Aspas can easily end up adding to his already impressive 9 goal and 6 assist tally.
The opposition’s leading scorer, striker Luis Suarez completes our set of picks for the impending showdown.
Captain And Vice-Captain
With 14 goals, Luis captains our side while Llorente is the vice-captain.
