Fantasy Team Picks
Goal-Keeper
Brad Collins from Barnsley has been the focal point of his side’s consummate success till now in the tournament,
Defenders
He was made to earn his place in Chelsea’s playing 11 under Tuchel but Reece James’ telling impact has seen him feature in both of the club’s bygone two wins.
Ben Chilwell is bound to feature for the club today along with Kurt Zouma to see both the indomitable players be instilled in our framework. The hosts on the other hand see us opt for Mads Andersen owing to his ability to maraud up the park.
Midfielders
Jorginho has now converted two goals on the spin for Chelsea to see him become the first selection from the visiting side.
Hakim Ziyech looks set to return to his side’s setup today and the player’s insatiable appetite to succeed should see him be involved in the goals. N’Golo Kante and his ability to recover the ball see him complete our trivalent from the club.
Barnsley on the other hand see us make Cauley Woodrow the first pick from the side. He’s a robust player, a name who has acted as the catalyst of his side’s attacks till now.
Elsewhere, Alex Mowatt has fortified his side’s backline with him winning aerial duels with ease.
Strikers
He hit home a hattrick in his last outing in the competition to see striker Tammy Abraham complete our picks for the encounter.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Seven goal man Tammy is our captain while Ziyech is the vice-captain.
