Fantasy Team Picks
Goal-Keeper
AS Roma’s Antonio Mirante will be embedded in our side as the goal-keeper for the forthcoming showdown. He’s worked in the backdrop quietly but has had a crucial hand in his side’s consummate success with a slew of saves.
Defenders
The imperious and tenacious Roger Ibanez will be slotting in next to him whilst Atalanta are going to see the two names line up for us from the club. We begin with the versatile Robin Gosens whose ability to work the flanks has made him one of the most attacking wingbacks in the sport.
Berat Djimsiti has been a calming figure at the back for the club, a player whose ability to clobber attacks sees him find a place in our fray.
Midfielders
The focal point of his side’s attacking plays with the six goals to his name, Jordan Veretout makes for a must have pick for us from AS Roma. Accompanying him is Lorenzo Pellegrini who has three assists in his kitty, two names capable of moving in tandem and blowing apart Atalanta’s jittery backline.
His goal against Juventus does enough to see the home side’s Remo Freuler earn a spot in our side along with Ruslan Malinovskyi.
Strikers
Striker Duvan Zapata’s two goals and three assists see him complete our set of picks from Atalanta. AS Roma will meanwhile see their top scorer, Henrikh Mkhitaryan line up for us with striker Edin Dzeko who has the four strikes forming the one-two of attacking selections from the unit.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Henrikh’s 7 goals and 5 assists see him captain our team while Veretout is the vice-captain.
