Best Matchday 2 UCL Fantasy Captaincy Options

Erling Haaland vs Sporting CP (28th Sep)

UCL Fantasy Matchday 2 best captaincy choice ~ Ering Haaland
MD1 – 7 pts

Erling Braut Haaland has indeed made his way among the top goal scorers in the world since he joined Dortmund. With Bellingham and captain Reus back in the game, he has become unstoppable. The Norweigian talisman has already bagged sixteen goals and three assists this season.


A match at home against Sporting, who has conceded five goals against Ajax, could certainly turn into a goal-fest.


Haaland is the most selected player with over 60% of fantasy managers keeping faith in him proves his worth to be the captain for matchday 2.

Karim Benzema vs Sheriff (28th Sep)

MD1 – 0 pts

Carlo Ancelotti and Real Madrid are already looking like a perfect reunion.


Real Madrid, currently at top of the table in La Liga is scoring a huge amount of goals courtesy of Karim Benzema having 11 direct goal contributions in 5 matches.


Real Madrid hosts Sheriff at home on Wednesday after playing Inter as a tough opponent.

Although Benzema is yet to put his name up in the scoresheet, his current form and price tag of 10 million indeed make him an appealing option as captain.

Cristiano Ronaldo vs Villarreal(29th Sep)

UCL Fantasy Matchday 2 best captaincy choice ~ Cristiano Ronaldo
MD1 – 6 pts

All-time highest goalscorer of Champions league and International Football needs no introduction. After losing against Young Boys, Solskjær and his men will surely be determined to take all 3 points at Old Trafford.

It is a chance to take revenge on Villarreal, who defeated them on penalties last season’s Europa League final. It could certainly be a huge opportunity for Ronaldo to steal the show.

He has appeared to be in good form, scoring four goals since “Homecoming” which makes him a top choice for captainship.

Robert Lewandoski vs Kyiv (29th Sep)

UCL Fantasy Matchday 2 best captaincy choice ~ Robert Lewandoski
MD1 – 13 pts

The European Golden Shoe’21 winner is undoubtedly the best no.9 in the world. Scoring in 15 consecutive Bundesliga games, just shy of legend Gerd Mueller, he is in the form of his life. The Bayern striker has already hit the back of the net twice against Barcelona.


The German Champions hosts a weaker Kyiv side at Allianz Arena. It will surely be another opportunity to add to his goal-scoring tally.


For me, he is already the best suitable option to wear the armband for any matchday.
