FWD Vitinho v FC Basel (CSKA Moscow) €17

We backed Vitinho last week, but he failed to deliver despite firing off four shots during a frustrating 2-0 loss to Basel at home.. Moscow have now been held scoreless in three straight, but that can be somewhat ignored in Vitinho's case as a forward who takes the majority of his team's set pieces. Vitinho is not goal-dependent and at that price, even when he does not score, he will always fire off a few shots, making his ceiling favourable at his price.

MID Gabi v Qarabag (Atletico Madrid) €18

With usual set piece taker Koke out through injury, Gabi is suddenly fantasy relevant as a cheap midfielder with a share of set pieces for one of the biggest favorites on the slate. He generally takes on more of a defensive role, but with a few more points via crosses he's in a better spot to get to double-digit points.

DEF Joshua Kimmich v Celtic (Bayern Munich) €17

Classed as a defender now, Kimmich will be eligible for a clean sheet bonus against the Scottish champions, despite playing further forward for Bayern. The German youngster has already played a part in three goals this season in the Champions League. He's also fired in 43 crosses through three games, with seven of them finding the target. Bayern have kept out their opponents in their last four games.

GK Silvio Proto v Barcelona (Olympiacos) €12

Despite conceding three goals against Barcelona last time out, Proto still managed a solid 7.5 fantasy points on the strength of nine saves. Olympiakos are at home for this one, so in theory they should perform better, even if they're still vastly outmatched by the Spanish giants. It's a risky strategy to back a goalkeeper against Barca, but he's extremely cheap at just €12.
