Champions League Fantasy Football: Limitless squad for Matchday 4

As the league phase of the UEFA Champions League continues on Matchday 4, managers on UCL Fantasy, presented by PlayStation, may consider this a good week to play the Limitless chip. UEFA.com has assembled a suggested squad with no budget restrictions, with Harry Kane, Jude Bellingham, Gabriel and João Cancelo all included.

Goalkeepers

Tuesday's fixtures look difficult to call in terms of clean sheets, making higher-priced options such as Jan Oblak, Manuel Neuer and Matvei Safonov difficult to back with confidence. Galatasaray's home fixture against Stuttgart makes Uğurcan Çakır (€5.0m) an appealing pick; the Turkish team have two clean sheets in their last four games in all competitions.

By contrast, David Raya (€6.0m) is the standout goalkeeping pick for Wednesday, Arsenal having kept three clean sheets in their last six games in all competitions. The Spaniard has conceded only two Champions League goals this season, keeping two clean sheets, and has 11 shut-outs in 17 games in the competition over the last two seasons – including one in a 3-0 win at next opponents Slavia Praha on Matchday 4 in 2025/26.

Defenders

Arsenal's defensive record – the Gunners have conceded the fewest goals in this season's Premier League (five) and the joint-fewest after three Champions League games (two), means Gabriel (€6.0m) and Ezri Konsa (€4.7m) are both selected for the trip to Slavia. PSV have also shipped only two goals and Sergiño Dest (€5.1m) also has a goal, 15 ball recoveries and a Player of the Match award ahead of the visit of Club Brugge.

At the other end of the pitch, Achraf Hakimi (€6.0m) registered an assist in Paris Saint-Germain's last Champions League game, the win against Barcelona, and emphasised his attacking threat with a hat-trick and two assists in Ligue 1 on Friday. João Cancelo (€5.0m) also has a goal and an assist in this season's Champions League and registered a Liga assist on Saturday ahead of Barcelona's home game versus Aston Villa.

Midfielders

There is a Barcelona double-up in midfield, which includes three of the four top Fantasy scorers in the position overall. Lamine Yamal (€10.2m) has 33 points thanks to two goals and four assists, while club-mate Raphinha (€9.7m) is on 18 despite missing Matchday 2 through injury. Como's Nico Paz (€7.0m) is second in the midfield scoring charts behind Yamal, his 30 points overall including 20 on Matchday 3.

Désiré Doué (€8.5m) is the Paris midfield pick for their game at Villarreal, his 26 points one more than team-mate Vitinha, also a strong option; both players have two goals, Doué also providing two assists while Vitinha has five points via ball recoveries. The final pick is Jude Bellingham (€8.5m), still to register an attacking return in this season's Champions League but who does have four goals – including one on Sunday – and three assists in La Liga plus a goal and four assists in four games for England.

Forwards

As ever, there are a wide number of appealing Fantasy options for the three forward slots – but the key appeal of the Limitless chip is the removal of budget restrictions and as such, it is hard to look beyond the three most expensive signings on the game. Kylian Mbappé (€11.0m) has scored in Real Madrid's last five games in all competitions – seven goals in all – and has found the net in all of his club's Champions League fixtures this season and his last five appearances in the competition overall. He also scored four goals on his last trip to Greece, on Matchday 5 last season.

Erling Haaland (€11.2m) sat out Matchday 3 but has four goals from his two Champions League games this season and six in four Champions League games against Leipzig, including a record-equalling five in the 2022/23 round of 16 second leg. Harry Kane (€11.1m) has scored in ten successive Champions League games – 13 goals in all – and will match Cristiano Ronaldo's competition record of 11 if he registers again at Atlético de Madrid.
