Fantasy Team Picks
Goal-Keeper
Eduard Mendy was in sensational touch the last time these two clubs locked head, staving everything sent down his way to see him be our goal-keeper for the day.
Defenders
The first thing Tuchel did was address Chelsea’s defence since taking over at the club. And he’s needed only a couple of months to transform the side’s backline with Chelsea conceding just twice in the 11 matches under the German.
The side’s defensive resolve made it befitting of us to opt for Cesar Azpilicueta and Antonio Rudiger from the club. The visiting side will on the other hand see us indulge in the services of Kieran Trippier.
Midfielders
Yannick Carrasco should return for this one and with the one goal and one assist, he becomes the first pick from the club in this facet.
Marcos Llorente has been sensational this term, a pathbreaking season which sees him form the duo from the side. Chelsea on the other hand see us make the robust Mason Mount the first part of the triad from the club.
Matteo Kovacic has the one assist to see him and N’Golo Kante complete the three man unit from the side.
Strikers
Olivier Giroud scored the last time these two clashed heads to see him represent Chelsea. Atletico Madrid on the other hand will see their leading scorer, Luis Suarez be inducted in our side.
Captain And Vice-Captain
The likelihood of a Chelsea cleansheet makes Cesar our captain while Giroud is the vice-captain.
