Champions League Fantasy Football: Who's in form?

Make your Fantasy changes for Matchday 15
Arsenal's road to the Champions League last four

Mikel Merino (€7.0m) – Arsenal

Merino has been delivering attacking returns in both domestic and European football, yet he remains a huge Fantasy differential with just 1% of managers currently owning the Spaniard. Frequently used in an attacking role of late, Merino won a penalty and provided two assists against Real Madrid on Matchday 14 having scored against the same opponents in the first leg the previous week. In all competitions the 28-year-old has four goals and four assists in his last nine club starts, but after missing the last Premier League fixture against Crystal Palace, Fantasy managers would be wise to monitor his injury situation.

Leandro Trossard (€7.0m) – Arsenal

An alternative Arsenal option to consider is Trossard, who has made the most of his opportunities recently. After scoring twice against Ipswich on 20 April the Belgian also struck against Crystal Palace three days later to make it four goals in his last four Premier League appearances. Although not always a starter in the Champions League this season, Trossard has featured in every game and has five attacking returns (two goals, three assists).

Watch Désiré Doué's extraordinary curler

Désiré Doué (€4.9m) – Paris Saint-Germain

Doué has been a revelation for Paris this season but particularly over the last month. In his last five starts across all competitions, the 19-year-old has found the net six times, including his superb effort against Aston Villa in the first leg of their quarter-final. Whether he has been deployed in midfield or in a front three, Doué has been scoring regularly and at just 3% ownership will tempt Fantasy managers looking for a differential forward.

Raphinha (€7.9m) – Barcelona

At the other end of the ownership scale is Raphinha, but that is hardly surprising given his phenomenal output in the Champions League. Having scored an incredible 122 Fantasy points, the Brazilian has 12 goals and a competition-leading seven assists, while his domestic form has been similarly impressive. Now on 30 club goals in all competitions for the season, Raphinha produced an assist and two goals in Barcelona's 4-3 Liga victory against Celta Vigo on 19 April.

Ferran Torres (€6.8m) – Barcelona

With Robert Lewandowski likely to miss the first leg against Inter through injury, Torres could make his first Champions League start since Matchday 2. The versatile Spaniard, registered as a midfielder on Fantasy, has fulfilled a central attacking role on a number of occasions recently and that could be the case again on Matchday 15. Torres has six goals and an assist in his last eight domestic appearances and represents a potentially lucrative differential option in Barcelona's semi-final tie.
