Confirmed Lineups: Atleti vs Barcelona + Liverpool vs PSG

Tonight's official starting XIs are in. Here are the key UCL Fantasy takeaways before lock.

UEFA's team sheets are out for both Tuesday quarter-final ties, and there is plenty for fantasy managers to attack. Barcelona and Atleti have both named aggressive sides, while Liverpool's front four is exactly the kind of upside-heavy reveal that can swing rank fast.

Quick take

  • Barcelona attack Yamal, Pedri, Olmo and Ferran all start
  • Atleti attack Griezmann, Julián Alvarez and Lookman all start
  • Liverpool attack Isak, Wirtz, Szoboszlai and Ekitike all start
  • PSG core Hakimi, Dembélé, Kvaratskhelia and Vitinha all start

Atleti vs Barcelona

Atleti XI: Musso; Ruggeri, Koke, Griezmann, Llorente, Lenglet, Molina, Alvarez, Simeone, Lookman, Le Normand.

Barcelona XI: Joan García; João Cancelo, Gavi, Ferran Torres, Pedri, Yamal, Fermín López, Gerard Martín, Dani Olmo, Koundé, Eric García.

Fantasy read: Barcelona still have the premium attackers you care about, but the big signal here is that this game has goals and late hauls written all over it. Yamal remains a premium captaincy route, while Olmo and Fermín are the more explosive differential angles if you are chasing.

Liverpool vs PSG

Liverpool XI: Mamardashvili; Frimpong, Van Dijk, Konaté, Kerkez; Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Ekitike, Szoboszlai, Wirtz; Isak.

PSG XI: Safonov; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Mendes; Zaïre-Emery, Vitinha, Neves; Kvaratskhelia, Dembélé, Doué.

Fantasy read: Liverpool have gone full strength in attack, and that keeps Isak, Wirtz and Szoboszlai firmly in play as high-ceiling picks. PSG have also kept their premium spine intact, so Hakimi, Dembélé and Kvaratskhelia remain elite upside options rather than fades.

Best last-minute fantasy reads

  • Safest captaincy route: Yamal or Dembélé
  • Highest-upside game: Liverpool vs PSG
  • Best differential angle: Fermín López or Ekitike
  • Strong defensive punt: Hakimi if you want upside over clean-sheet safety

The Savant's verdict: these lineups have not created many fades. They have mostly confirmed that the obvious premiums are still the right place to be, with Liverpool vs PSG the match most likely to produce the biggest fantasy swings.
