NMA - UCL MD-9 Fantasy Player Picks (Never Manage Alone)

We're edging closer to Paris, with the games coming thick and fast this month. Sadly, PSG won't have the chance to win at home; instead, we have three ...

My gut feeling is that this will be a very low-scoring round, and if you think so too, you probably want to spend meagerly on your forwards. Villareal fields a very compact and disciplined defense, and players like Müller thrive in finding the half-spaces in such scenarios. But if you’re out of cash and still want to invest in Bayern, Thomas Müller may be a shrewd investment. Liverpool and Bayern seem to have better chances of progressing past this round. Danjuma has 11 goal contributions domestically and six in the Champions League. A forward listed as a midfielder, he is every fantasy manager’s fantasy, an absolute bargain at just €7.2m. Bayern comfortably leads the scoring charts at 30 goals, and Lewa has been involved in fully half of them. With most of the above picks tending to land on the expensive side, we need an economical option to balance the books. Leroy Sané had his struggles to live up to the lofty expectations placed on him at Bayern, but now he is well and truly settled. Jokes apart, Mahrez with his six goals completes the three must-have midfielders of this UCL season so far. They are comfortable sitting back and letting the opponent have the ball, inviting their opponents to try to break them down. Amassing two goals plus 17 assists this season alone, TAA is by far the best in the world in his position. Even if he misses the clean sheet, a 4-point return (+2 for 90 mins on pitch, +1 for every three ball recoveries) is almost a given.

UCL Fantasy Matchday 9 Watchlist 2021/22: 6 players to watch in ... (GamingonPhone)

Presenting UCL fantasy Quarter Final 2021/22 watchlist guide to bolster your squads with the best players ahead of the upcoming matchday 9.

Been owned by 17% of total UCL fantasy managers and scoring 56 points from his UCL campaign so far, Benzema is a hot prospect nobody wants to miss out on. His UCL fantasy ownership is pretty low, mere 2%, fairly due to not being the face of Atletico defense, and can well prove to be a potential differential option. The best for this job in UCL Quarters game can be safely given to Alisson Becker from Liverpool. Liverpool face Benfica and Alisson is owned by a total of 7% of teams playing the UCL fantasy league. Speaking of his attacking output, the defender has contributed in 23 offensive actions that directly led to a goal or a shot on goal. Atletico Madrid and Manchester City face off in the first leg of the UCL quarter-finals where Mandava can play a key role. The Brazilian comes at a cost of 6.4 million and has accumulated 31 points in the game so far, looking to extend that in the quarters by keeping another clean sheet.

In addition, the strong support of the fans in Lisbon will play an important role. But Liverpool, being the second favorite in the Champions League, will obviously play offensively. Manchester City faced a team that was a blessed gift, in the UCL last 16. In the upcoming meeting, we will not pry into the outcome. Liverpool's opponent at the last stage was Inter. In Milan, the Merseysiders met with no resistance and won 2:0 but unexpectedly they lost 0:1 at home. The fact is that on their field, with the support of their fans, they do not fail in ten games (seven wins and three draws). At the same time, Queens Park Rangers have lost five of its last six matches on the road.
