As the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals approach, the #UCLfantasy Scout is placing strong faith in Paris Saint-Germain. Five PSG players headline the Matchday 13 Fantasy squad, followed by four from Barcelona, and two each from Arsenal and Bayern München. The front line features big names like Robert Lewandowski, Harry Kane, and Vinícius Júnior.
Goalkeepers
Clean sheets could be rare on Tuesday, with Arsenal hosting Real Madrid and Bayern facing Inter Milan — both matches involving teams with defensive concerns. Despite Arsenal’s injuries, David Raya (€5.6m) is picked for his save potential and four home clean sheets in the group stage.
Gianluigi Donnarumma (€5.8m) is the top choice for Wednesday. The PSG keeper earned nine points, a clean sheet, and Player of the Match honors in the last round against Liverpool. He’ll be looking for another strong showing at home versus Aston Villa.
Defenders
PSG stars Achraf Hakimi (€5.7m) and Nuno Mendes (€5.2m) top the defender rankings with 85 and 70 points, respectively. Hakimi has one goal, five assists, and 59 ball recoveries. Mendes matches the recovery count and remains a key player on the left flank.
Minjae Kim (€5.2m) of Bayern is another solid option, with 23 of his 66 points coming from a standout 78 ball recoveries. Barcelona’s Iñigo Martínez (€5.1m) is a cheaper option with three clean sheets and one goal this season.
Arsenal’s Myles Lewis-Skelly (€4.0m) provides a budget-friendly pick. The 18-year-old has played in the last three Champions League matches, registered an assist, and is expected to start again due to Riccardo Calafiori’s injury.
Midfielders
Barcelona and PSG dominate the midfield picks. Raphinha (€7.7m) leads all midfielders with 105 Fantasy points and five double-digit returns. Lamine Yamal (€7.3m) is a popular pick too, delivering a 12-point performance in his last match.
For PSG, Ousmane Dembélé (€8.5m) is in red-hot form, scoring 24 goals in 20 games in 2025 and earning 52 of his 62 Fantasy points in the last six matches. Bradley Barcola (€7.2m) has scored 41 points since Matchday 7, while Aston Villa’s Morgan Rogers (€5.1m) has a goal and two assists in his last two league matches.
Forwards
Up front, Lewandowski (€9.6m) and Kane (€10.8m) lead the way. Lewandowski has been quiet in the Champions League but has nine goals in ten La Liga games. Kane continues to dominate with 23 Bundesliga goals and 39 goals across all competitions this season.
Kylian Mbappé is in the mix, but the final forward spot goes to Vinícius Júnior (€11.2m), who scored over the weekend and has 66 Fantasy points this season. His form and potential make him a strong option despite a missed penalty.
