Champions League Fantasy Football: Top performers on Matchday 4

UEFA Champions League records were set in the fourth round of league phase fixtures, including the biggest victory by an away team. On UCL Fantasy, presented by PlayStation, eight players finished with 15 points or more; UEFA.com looks at the top scorers.

GOALKEEPERS

The highest individual Fantasy score in this position was shared between seven goalkeepers, all of whom finished Matchday 4 with seven points. Those seven goalkeepers each kept a clean sheet and made at least three saves. For Inter's Josep Martínez (€4.5m), it was his second consecutive clean sheet and seven-point score as the Italian champions followed their 1-0 win at home to Shakhtar Donetsk with a 3-0 triumph at Feyenoord.

Both Nikita Haikin (€4.5m) and Manuel Neuer (€5.4m) registered their second clean sheet of the league phase for Bodø/Glimt and Bayern München respectively. Bodø/Glimt drew 0-0 with Lille, a match in which Berke Özer (€4.4m) also shut out his opponents and gained seven Fantasy points. Neuer kept Atlético de Madrid at bay in a 2-0 away victory for the Bundesliga champions.

A lucrative Fantasy pick in last season's Champions League, Uğurcan Çakır (€5.0m) gave managers a reminder of his credentials, making five saves in Galatasaray's 2-0 win at home to Stuttgart. That total was matched by Rui Silva (€5.0m), who kept a clean sheet on his return to Sporting CP's starting line-up.

DEFENDERS

On Tuesday two goals, a clean sheet and the Player of the Match award in LASK's 4-0 triumph at home to Slovan Bratislava helped Kasper Jørgensen (€4.5m) to 22 points. The full-back, owned by very few Fantasy managers, was one of only two players to reach the 20-point mark on Matchday 4.

Also on the scoresheet on Tuesday was Konrad Laimer (€5.0m), who got Bayern's second goal in their win at Atleti, six ball recoveries and Player of the Match award leaving him on 17 Fantasy points. The Austrian is now one of the three top-scoring defenders with 31 points.

Inter duo Djed Spence (€4.8m) and Yann Bisseck (€4.4m) proved to be excellent differential picks on Matchday 4, scoring 16 and 13 points respectively with Spence providing two assists including the one for Bisseck to score his first Champions League goal.

MIDFIELDERS

The small group of Fantasy managers who owned Aleksei Batrakov (€4.6m) were rewarded in Galatasaray's victory against Stuttgart. Batrakov scored both goals, picking up the Player of the Match award and 17 points, the most of any midfielder on Matchday 4. The 21-year-old now has four goals in his last four league phase appearances.

Three other midfielders ended with 15 points or more, one of whom was Barcelona captain Raphinha (€9.6m). The Brazilian now has four goals, two Player of the Match awards and 31 Fantasy points across Barça's two home league phase fixtures, having scored twice for 15 points against Aston Villa.

Also picking up 15 points was Paris Saint-Germain's João Neves (€5.9m), who registered three attacking returns in a 6-0 triumph at Villarreal. However, that Fantasy score was bettered by club-mate Fabián Ruiz (€6.8m), whose two goals and the Player of the Match earned him 16 points.

FORWARDS

The new top goalscorer in this season's Champions League following his Matchday 4 hat-trick was Como's Tasos Douvikas (€6.6m), who came away with 20 points. The Greek forward has 37 points across the league phase and is yet to record a score lower than five points.

Like Douvikas, Nicolò Tresoldi (€7.3m) has registered at least one goal involvement in all four appearances after scoring for Club Brugge on Wednesday. That made it five Champions League goals this season for Tresoldi, whose six Fantasy points on Matchday 4 left him on 34 overall.

Also reaching double figures for Matchday 4 were Viking's Erik Botheim (€5.0m) and Viktor Gyökeres (€8.5m) of Arsenal in their wins over Sabah and Slavia Praha respectively. Among the highest-owned premium forwards, Kylian Mbappé (€11.1m) was on the scoresheet against AEK Athens, Erling Haaland (€11.2m) struck against Leipzig and Harry Kane (€11.2m) picked up an assist and five points against Atleti.
