Fantasy Team Picks
Goal-Keeper
Lille’s Mike Maignan will be our pick as the goal-keeper for the forthcoming scrimmage. He’s played an instrumental role in making Lille the best defensive setup in the league, a side that has let in the least number of goals at just 10.
Defenders
Given the ramifications at stake today and the emphatic attacking nature of these two units, a cleansheet looks extremely unlikely for either setup. However, if there’s one side capable of pulling it off, its PSG to see us ring in Presnel Kimpembe, Marquinhos and Mitchel Bakker from the club.
Midfielders
Angel’s four assists were enough to see him be our pick for the contest from PSG along with Rafinha Alcantara. Lille on the other hand will see us opt for the pick of the guile filled Boubakary Soumare and Benjamin Andre, two names who have a myriad skill set, one which has seen them control the midfield for the club.
Strikers
Lille’s top scorer in the league, Burak Yilmaz has been absolutely eclectic this season. He’s not only helped himself to 6 goals but has a neat four assists as well to go with them, numbers which make him a must have pick.
He finds company in the flair of Jonathan Bamba who has five goals and six assists. PSG will elsewhere see Kylian Mbappe line up for us owing to the staggering 11 goals he’s thudded home for the club.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Mbappe’s 11 goals and 4 assists will see him captain our unit while Yilmaz is our vice-captain.
