FWD Paulo Dybala v Olympiacos (Juventus) €24

Dybala has 10 goals in just five Serie A starts this season! He won't score two goals a game all season against stubborn Italian defences, but tonight he plays against Olympiacos who are currently fourth in the Superleague Greece. Being priced at €24 lets you squeeze in Lionel Messi (€28) and a couple more big hitters too.

MID Nicolae Stanciu v Celtic (Anderlecht) €13

Stanciu has a goal and two assists in his previous two league games and is kindly priced at €13 at home to Celtic. The catch is that the midfielder is not a guaranteed starter, having only played 90 minutes in one game this year. Thankfully, Yahoo fantasy lets you change out players all the way to kickoff so check the lineups at 6.45pm to make sure he's playing.

DEF Alejandro Grimaldo v FC Basel (Benfica) €14

Benfica are favourites on the road against FC Basel who have lost three of their last five games this season. They have scored just one in every game, failing to score against Manchester United in their opening Champions League fixture. Even if Basel score, defenders are only rewarded with three points for a clean sheet. The real points for defenders come from crosses (0.5 points) and shots (0.5 per shot +2 for a shot on target). Grimaldo averages 3.6 crosses per 90 and 1.4 shots per 90 currently.

GK David de Gea v CSKA Moscow (Manchester United) €15

Manchester United have kept six clean sheets in seven of their previous games, including a shutout against Basel in their opening Champions League game. Yahoo fantasy awards points to keepers when their team wins (4) or draws (2) and United are heavy favourites to win in Russia against CSKA Moscow.
