This article focuses on 11/25 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.

Wednesday 11/25 UCL Slate and DFS Gameplan

It’s time for the second half of Matchweek 4/6 of the Champion’s League Group Stages with a six game slate beginning at 3:00 p.m. ET.

As we already saw all of these teams square off a few weeks ago, there is a lot of existing data to work with.

Note: Projected starters are highlighted in bold. Goal odds of all potential starters are included, but if a player is not in the starting lineup, disregard his scoring odds.

Bayern Munich (-455)

Key Goal Scoring Odds: Robert Lewandowski (-400), Serge Gnabry (-130), Leroy Sane (-113), Thomas Muller (+104), Leon Goretzka (+145), Kingsley Coman (+160), Corentin Tolisso (+260)

The defending Champions are coming off a disappointing draw with Werder Bremen over the weekend in the Bundesliga. However, they are the joint biggest favorites on the slate hosting Red Bull Salzburg.

Robert Lewandowski has the highest goal scoring odds on the slate and should be the chalk on both sites.

Joshua Kimmich remains out, my assumption is Thomas Muller will be taking his set pieces for DraftKings purposes.

Serge Gnabry, Leroy Sane, Kingsley Coman, and Muller, are all secondary options. We will just have to see how the lineups shake out.

Atletico Madrid (-455)

Key Goal Scoring Odds: Luis Suarez (Goal odds not listed as presumably out with Covid-19), Joao Felix (+100), Diego Costa (+138), Angelo Correa (+160), Yannick Carrasco (+200), Marcus Llorente (+255)

That other team from Madrid comes in a very heavy favorite here at home against Lokomotiv Moscow. They come in with some momentum following a big win over Barcelona this past weekend in La Liga.

Luis Suarez is likely going sit out as he continues to recover from Covid-19, so DraftKings sportsbook did not list goal odds for him. I’d think this is a bump to Joao Felix, who will likely be flanked by Diego Costa and Yannick Carrasco, with Angel Correa an alternate option. I like Felix’s FanDuel price as compared to his hefty DraftKings salary.

As far as other plays, Koke and Kierian Trippier tend to dominate the set pieces. Marcus Llorente can always troll a goal.

Ajax (-335)

Key Scoring Odds: Dusan Tadic (+104), Lassina Traore (+104), Quincy Promes (+110), Zakaria Labyad (+128), Antony (+128), David Neres (+185)

Ajax is favored at home at lowly FC Midtjylland. They beat them 2-1 on the road the first time around and should be able to repeat here. At the time, Ajax was also down a few players due to Covid-19. Going back to the game stats, they were not quite as dominant as you might expect or desire for a -335 favorite.

Among the forwards, Dusan Tadic handles at least half the set pieces “Zakaria Labyad the rest” and would likely take any penalty kicks. Lassina Traore has been a monster in the Dutch league, the Eriedivisie, so his $7 price tag on FanDuel is laughable. The other two in the mix to start in the attack are David Neres, Labyad and Antony.

Real Madrid (+230) at Inter Milan (+110)

Key Scoring Odds: Romelu Lukaku (+102), Lautaro Martinez (+143), Andrea Pinamonti (+150), Alexis Sanchez (+160), Mariano Diaz (+200), Eden Hazard (+230), Ivan Perisic (+240), Arturo Vidal (+275), Vinicius Junior (+290), Marco Asensio (+310)

Real Madrid was able to beat Inter Milan the first time around 3-2 in Madrid. However, both Karim Benzema and Sergio Ramos will be out tomorrow. As a result, I like the Inter Milan side here to take care of business.

Beginning with Real Madrid, on FanDuel, Eden Hazard is back up to $14 so unplayable. Marco Ascensio is cheap but maybe for a reason. The other projected starter in this attack is “Mariano”. He is $6 on FanDuel, and has the highest goal scoring odds of the trio, so the preferred play.

Whichever two Real Madrid wingbacks start, they are in play, but I wouldn’t go wild with a stack here.

Turning to Inter Milan, Romelu Lukaku continues to be a beast in all competitions and is the top play in this game. Lautaro Martinez is the alternate scoring option. I’d focus my exposure there.

Atalanta (+360) at Liverpool (-152)

Key Goal Scoring Odds: Mohammed Salah (-124), Sadio Mane (+106), Diego Jota (+118), Divock Origi (+175), Duvan Zapata (+175), Robert Firmino (+185), Luis Muriel (+210), Joseph Illicic (+220), Alejandro Gomez (+250).

Atalanta’s defensive liabilities puts the forwards Mohammed Salah, Sadio Mane, Diego Jota, and Roberto Firmino in play as pivots off of some of the other high priced options.

Salah is just coming back from Covid-19, Mane has been pretty good, but Jota has been the story lately since joining the Reds.

The two high-flying wing defensemen Andy Robertson and Trent Alexander-Arnold are expensive and I’ll pass.

Porto (+155) at Marseilles (+195)

Key Scoring Odds: Moussa Marega (+188), Dario Benedetto (+195), Florian Thauvin (+205), Luis Diaz (+240), Sergio Oliveira (+240), Joao Mario (+260), Dmitri Payet (+295)

The final game, Porto v. Marseilles, is the least interesting for either DFS or real life. A Moussa Marega one off here/there is fine, but this is not somewhere I would try to go overboard. Porto beat them up 3-0 the first time around and should definitely win at home but I would think more along the lines of 1-0.

UCL Best Bet

Bayern Munich and Inter Milan (+156 total) DraftKings Sportsbook – 1.75 Units*

DraftKings | FanDuel

The Betting Game Plan

Both Atletico Madrid and Ajax at their current odds are a bit too rich for my blood. You could look at Bayern Munich and Liverpool, but as mentioned above, I do like Inter Milan here. Without Real Madrid’s two core veterans, it seems like the rematch will be a very different game.

This article focuses on 11/3 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.

Tuesday 11/3 UCL Slate and DFS Gameplan

Let’s get ready for Matchweek 3/6 of the Champion’s League Group Stages with a six game slate beginning at 3:00 p.m. ET.

Two Big Favorites – Manchester City and Bayern Munich

This slate is largely defined by two huge favorites in Manchester City at -560 and Bayern Munich at -305. They face off with Greek outfit Olympiacos and Austrian team Red Bull Salzburg, respectively. If looking to go the stacking route or even putting together two man mini-stacks, pulling from these two teams probably makes the most sense.

I would expect both Robert Lewandowski and Kevin De Bruyne to be very popular on both sites with Joshua Kimmich right there on DraftKings.

Behind them, for Manchester City, Fernan Torres has a nice price on both sites so should eclipse Raheem Sterling, Riyad Mahrez, and Phil Foden in terms of ownership.

As for Bayern, besides Lewandowski and Kimmich, Serge Gnabry, Kingsley Coman, and Thomas Muller, are all options.

Ajax

However, we can also get great value elsewhere. Ajax is favored away at lowly FC Midtjylland and is extremely cheap on both sites. This Lassina Traore has been a monster in the Dutch league, the Eriedivisie, so his $7 price tag on FanDuel is laughable. This Antony, a young Brazilian forward, hasn’t been a slouch either and is very affordable. Ajax has had a lot of turnover in the last few years, but that has resulted in some little known names who are priced rather cheaply.

Real Madrid vs. Inter Milan

Turning to Real Madrid/Inter Milan, given these two teams woes early on in the Champion’s League Group Stages, this game will have a lot of added significance. A Cinderella team from the Ukraine, Shaktar Donetsk, currently leads the group after 2/6 matches.

Beginning with the Real Madrid side, on FanDuel, Eden Hazard, who cost million Real Madrid $160 million a little over a year ago, costs the minimum of $5. Marco Ascensio is also cheap there at $13. With Karim Benzema $22 on FanDuel, I’d rather play him on DraftKings for the $8,100 price tag.

Aside from Hazard, perhaps my favorite play from Real Madrid is Marcelo on DraftKings. He continues to rack up the peripheral stats anytime he is in. Sergio Ramos is always in play for tournaments given his role as the penalty kick taker.

On the other side, Romelu Lukaku is out for Inter Milan, so Lautaro Martinez will likely operate as the lone striker. I think this team on the whole makes more sense on DraftKings, where it gives you a ton of cheap midfielders who can all get you from around seven to ten points. If going the stars and scrubs route, one or two of them might come in handy.

Liverpool v. Atalanta

The Atalanta/Liverpool game should be a good one. Usually, Atalanta is a DFS darling with their fast paced, open play style. However, given the matchups, I prefer Liverpool as a contrarian way to go.

Atalanta’s defensive liabilities puts the forwards Mohammed Salah, Sadio Mane, and Diego Jota in play as pivots off of some of the other high priced options. The two high-flying wing defensemen Andy Robertson and Trent Alexander-Arnold are expensive, but are both capable of big games here. That said, I wouldn’t force them into your build on either site as I am not sure they are optimal on this slate.

The final game, Porto v. Marseilles, is the least interesting for DFS. A Moussa Marega one off here/there is fine, but this is not somewhere I would try to go overboard.

UCL Best Bet

Man City + Bayern Munich (-167 total) DraftKings Sportsbook – 2 Units*

Wednesday 10/28 UCL Slate and DFS Gameplan

We are wrapping up Matchweek 2/6 of the Champion’s League Group Stages with a six game slate beginning at 4:00 p.m. ET.

Originally, this slate was supposed to feature Messi vs. Ronaldo, but as CR7 is still out with Covid-19, only one of the two superstars will be playing.

Dortmund is the biggest favorite on the slate at -278, followed by Sevilla at -182. Outside of that, every other team is plus odds to win.

As a result, it makes more sense to try to pick out pieces than stack a team other than the two mentioned above.

On FanDuel, both Erling Haaland and Jadon Sancho seem cheap. DraftKings also has a number of pricing discrepancies as well. Most of our exploitations are listed below, but be sure to price compare, if playing on both sites.

UCL Best Bet

PSG/Dortmund, PSG/Chelsea or PSG/Dortmund/Chelsea – DraftKings Sportsbook*

DraftKings | FanDuel

The Betting Game Plan

I’d go a little light here betting wise, maybe 1-1.2 units. However, I would build around PSG and add on Dortmund and/or Chelsea. An alternative approach would be to bet on the PSG ML with either a Neymar or Kylian Mbappe anytime goal.

10/28 UCL FanDuel Rankings

Forward/Midfield

  • 1. Erling Haaland – Dortmund – $19
  • 2. Jadon Sancho – Dortmund – $18

Tuesday 10/20 UCL Slate and DFS Gameplan

The Champions League has returned for the 2020 season and we begin with a six game slate beginning at 3:00 p.m. ET. Both sites have pumped up the contests a bit for what is otherwise a slow Tuesday and Wednesday in the world of DFS.

Barcelona sticks out like a sore thumb. They come into their matchup against the Hungarian Champions, Ferencvaros FC, as massive -1430 favorites. For comparison’s sake, the next closest favorites are RB Leipzig, who are at -435 for their matchup with Turkish Champions, Istanbul Basakhesir.

This means Messi will be nearly universally owned in all formats. His attacking mates Ansu Fati, Antoine Greizmann, and Phillipe Coutinho, will be popular as well.

As far as lineup construction, in cash you can just run Barcelona and even in tournaments, it is hard to get around Messi. It might make sense to just eat Messi and pivot from there. Players from RB Leipzig and PSG would be the next in play. Be sure to check players prices on both sites and take advantage as there are some tremendous disparities.

UCL Best Bet

Manchester United (+450) at PSG (-186) – 3:00 PM ET – Tuesday 10/20

PSG – *Money Line -186 – DraftKings Sportsbook*

DraftKings | FanDuel

The Betting Game Plan

Over the weekend, Manchester United was able to pour it on late against Newcastle to end their cold spell in the English Premier League. However, given United’s struggles, it is strange that we see PSG below -200 here, hosting them at the Parc Des Princes.

Manchester United did have a controversial elimination of an injury riddled PSG side in the Champion’s League a couple years back, but I doubt that there are any lingering effects. With the trio of Neymar, Kylian Mbappe, and Angel Di Maria all healthy, PSG should be able to handle a Manchester United side that has routinely struggled with mediocre EPL competition this season.

  • 1. Lionel Messi – Barcelona – $23

8/19 UCL Showdown Slate DFS Picks

The semi-finals brings us to a massive shocker in Lyon being in the final four taking on Bayern Munich, the tournament favorites. While Lyon shocked everyone with a 3-1 win over Manchester City, do not expect the same today as the German champions just thrashed Barcelona 8-2. It may not be 8-2, but I am fully expecting Bayern Munich to win quite handily today.

8/19 UCL Showdown Slate FanDuel Picks (Forward/Midfielders)

  1. Robert Lewandowski $16

This article focuses on 8/14 UCL Showdown Slate DFS Picks on Draftkings and FanDuel. 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.

8/14 UCL Showdown Slate DFS Picks

The quarterfinals brings us a game that could be played in the finals with Bayern Munich taking on Barcelona. Earlier this week, Hans-Dieter Flick said that Alphonso Davies can keep Messi under check if he plays on his side, a tall ask of a young fullback, but one Davies is certainly capable of. This will be a high offense, high powered game from both teams, and I expect the big guys to put up some serious numbers today.

8/14 UCL Showdown Slate FanDuel Picks (Forward/Midfielders)

  1. Messi $16
  2. Robert Lewandowski $15
  3. Serge Gnabry $12

This article focuses on 8/12 UCL Showdown Slate DFS Picks on Draftkings and FanDuel. 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.

8/12 UCL Showdown Slate DFS Picks

The quarterfinals in the Champions League will begin in Portugal today with Atalanta taking on PSG. PSG may be short-handed today without Kylian Mbappe, who would be a huge loss for them, but rumours are saying he is good to play off the bench at a minimum. Angel Di Maria is already suspended for PSG, and with the attacking football Atalanta love to play, PSG will need its stars in order to keep up with the goals. I think we see a game today capable of producing four goals.

8/12 UCL Showdown Slate FanDuel Picks (Forward/Midfielders)

  1. Neymar $16
  2. Mbappe $15 (If in)
  3. Alejandro Gomez $11
  4. Mauro Icardi $14

  6. Mario Pasalic $9

  10. Remo Frueler $8

8/12 UCL Showdown Slate Fanduel Picks (Defenders)

  1. Juan Bernat $10
  2. Jose Palomino $8
  3. Hans Hateboer $9
  4. Presnel Kimpembe (Likely to be popular due to low price) $5
  5. Marquinhos $7

This article focuses on 8/7 Champions League Top Daily Fantasy Picks on Draftkings and FanDuel. 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.

8/7 Champions League Top Daily Fantasy Picks

The long awaited return for Champions League comes to an end, as the second leg of two matches will occur with two big teams down in the aggregate. Juventus lost its first match to Lyon, and will look to bounce back with Cristiano Ronaldo leading the frontline, while Real Madrid head to Manchester essentially down 2 goals as Manchester City won 2-1 in Madrid. I expect that game to be very open with how Madrid will need to attack. There is not much value on FanDuel at midfield/attackers, so cheap defenders will be very important.

8/7 UCL DFS Picks – FanDuel Midfielders/Forwards

  1. Kevin De Bruyne $22
  2. Cristiano Ronaldo $22
  3. Riyad Mahrez $17
  4. Paulo Dybala (Questionable) $19

  6. Toni Kroos $18
