Who should be my Champions League Fantasy Football captain for Matchday 2?

Michael Olise, Lamine Yamal, Ousmane Dembélé and Ermedin Demirović could all turn out to be excellent captaincy options for the second round of league phase fixtures on UCL Fantasy, presented by PlayStation.

Fantasy managers will get one chance to change their captain on UEFA Champions League Matchday 2, with the 18 fixtures taking place over the course of two days.

TUESDAY 13 OCTOBER

Michael Olise (€9.0m) vs Viking (A)

One of the most in-form players in Europe, Olise continues to deliver attacking returns for both club and country. Bayern München's France winger has seven goals and three assists in his last five appearances, including four goals for Les Bleus in the international break. Olise's last Champions League outing ended with 21 Fantasy points, the most of any player on Matchday 1, with two goals, an assist and a Player of the Match award in Bayern's 5-0 win at home to Bodø/Glimt. The German champions next travel to a Viking side beaten 3-1 by Stuttgart in the opening round of league phase fixtures.

Lamine Yamal (€10.0m) vs Galatasaray (A)

Yamal is another attacking midfielder who has been among the goals for his country, scoring four times in Spain's first three UEFA Nations League fixtures. The 19-year-old has at least one goal involvement in his last nine appearances for club and country, registering 12 goals and seven assists. The premium-priced Yamal scored a free-kick and set up two goals on Matchday 1, scoring 15 Fantasy points as Barcelona defeated Feyenoord 5-1 at home and will no doubt be a popular captaincy choice for Barcelona's next game at Galatasaray.

WEDNESDAY 14 OCTOBER

Ousmane Dembélé (€10.0m) vs Manchester City (A)

Paris Saint-Germain's Champions League defence got off to an strong start with a 6-1 victory over Slovan Bratislava, Dembélé playing a significant role with two goals and two assists, leaving him with 16 Fantasy points. While Paris face a tough Matchday 2 challenge away to Manchester City, Dembélé has shown himself to be almost fixture-proof and his quality on and off the ball should help him gain plenty of opportunities to pick up more Fantasy points.

Ermedin Demirović (€6.0m) vs Slovan Bratislava (A)

Fantasy managers searching for a lesser-owned captaincy choice may want to consider Demirović, the Bosnia and Herzegovina striker having taken the headlines in Stuttgart's opening league phase fixture. His hat-trick led the German side to victory over Viking, earning Demirović the Player of the Match award and 17 Fantasy points, the second most among forwards. Next up for Stuttgart are a Slovan Bratislava side who conceded six goals on Matchday 1, so handing Demirović the armband could prove to be an excellent move.
