With a place in the final on the line, every decision matters more than ever, and I’ve gone through the players I think can deliver the most points this week.

From captain options to differentials, it is all about making the right calls at the right time. I am focusing on players who look most likely to return points through goals , assists , and clean sheets . With only four teams left, Arsenal , Atletico Madrid , Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich , and managers limited to six players per club, team selection becomes harder, with many similar picks.

Here is how my team looks heading into the second leg Matchday 16, with the deadline set for Tuesday at 8pm GMT. UCL Matchday 16 Team Goalkeeper and Defence Heading into the second leg of the MD16 semi finals, I am still sticking with David Raya heading into this round, mainly because of Arsenal’s strong defence in Europe this season . A penalty may have stopped them from getting a clean sheet against Atletico last time out, but that is not enough to look away from their back line.

Back at home this week against the same team, there is still a good chance for Raya to get a clean sheet. They finished the league phase with a perfect record and five clean sheets , which shows how strong they have been defensively. With the tie still close after a 1–1 draw in the first leg , Raya remains an important pick for an Arsenal side chasing a place in the final.
