8/18 UCL DFS and Bets – Final Four

This article focuses on 8/18 UCL Picks for DraftKings and FanDuel Sportsbook and FanDuel and DraftKings Daily Fantasy. We consider tournament tactics, statistics, pricing, and attempt to tackle this highly variable Daily Fantasy format so we can gain an edge on the field at large.

8/18 UCL Showdown Slate

We are down to the Final Four in what has become the all French and German Champions League. Tuesday, we have the first of the two semifinal matchups as RB Leipzig squares off with the French Champions PSG.

For PSG, Kylian Mbappe is back to full health and should be back starting, and Angel Di Maria returns from a one game suspension. With their A Team back intact, this should be a much better PSG team than the one who needed a miracle in the final minutes to escape against Atalanta. If PSG wins, it would likely set up a juicy matchup in the Champion’s League Final against the competition’s presumptive favorite, Bayern Munich.

UCL Best Bet

Leipzig (+320) vs PSG (-130) – 3PM ET – Tuesday 8/18 – *PSG – MONEYLINE*

DraftKings | FanDuel

The Betting Game Plan

PSG will likely grab the win and move on. Leipzig is getting a bit of a betting bump after there have been a couple of recent upsets, so minds are frazzled. I think you just eat the money line as it is unlikely they go wild against Leipzig, but likely do just enough to win.

PSG would likely have better odds if not for the unimpressive showing last round, albeit a poor display with a watered down squad, based on all of the important players who were previously unavailable.
