Fantasy Team Picks
Goal-Keeper
Lazio’s Pepe Reina will be inducted in our side after his cleansheet against Sampdoria at the weekend.
Defenders
Despite Bayern Munich having lost their way at the back off late, we’ll still be painting our backline entirely in the club’s colors. If there’s any side capable of pulling off a cleansheet today, it’s the visiting side.
Adding to this narrative is Alphonso Davies’ penchant for making his way up the park. David Alaba and Jerome Boateng are more than capable of doing the dirty work at the back for the side.
Midfielders
Bayern Munich’s top scorer in the Champions League with the three goals and two assists in his kitty, Kingsley Coman becomes the first pick from the side.
Joshua Kimmich recorded a couple of assists in the club’s rout of Atletico Madrid to see him and Leon Goretzka who scored in the same tie represent their club.
Lazio will meanwhile see us opt for the vibrant and robust duo of Luis Alberto and Sergej Milinkovic-Savic. The two have endeared to their club’s supporters over the last couple of years owing to their ability to work their way past tight spaces.
Strikers
With the three goals to his name, striker Robert Lewandowski was an instant pick for us. Lazio’s top scorer in the Champions League as well, Ciro Immobile can easily end up adding to his already impressive six goal tally.
Captain And Vice-Captain
His three goals see Robert be our captain while Ciro is the vice-captain.
