On Wednesday, February 14 UEFA Championship League Round of 16, Leg 1 continues with two games:
- Real Madrid – Paris Saint-Germain and
- FC Porto –Liverpool FC
DraftKings features several contests for all UEFA Championship League games.
All eyes are going to be on the Real-PSG game. PSG are stronger this year, which will make Real Madrid cautious. It is conceivable that Real-PSG is going to be a low scoring game, possibly ending in a 0-0 tie. From a fantasy soccer point of view, Porto-Liverpool is a less risky candidate.
With that in mind, for my roster I am going with a couple of defenders from Real-PSG and then with forwards from Liverpool which has never lost to Porto.
Sergio Ramos ($3,800) – Defender – Real Madrid: Zidane will never leave him on the bench.
Dani Alves ($5,100) – Defender – Paris Saint-Germain: Expect crosses in the area from the right side.
Mohamed Salah ($9,800) – Forward – Liverpool: 22 goals in EPL this campaign.
Roberto Firmino ($7,800) – Midfielder/Forward – Liverpool: 12 goals scored in EPL.
