UCL Fantasy Matchday 8: CHIP STRATEGY | Champions League Fantasy Tips 2023/24

[@FPLDylan]

@9:50 Sevilla defeated Almeria 5-1*

[@coopdog1]

I personally made my md1 squad to target just those fixtures preparing to chip in md2 since that has worked well for me before. Now it's just about deciding whether to ll2 wc3 or wc2 ll5/6.

[@FPLDylan]

Injuries could play a part in whether the Limitless or Wildcard is best used in Matchday 2. A lot could change over the weekend.

[@mars__4]

i think using limitless in md3 or 4 makes more sense than using it in md2 . because a lot of big teams are playing against small teams in md3 and 4 ..so there is a huge chance for big team players to score a lot a goals against small teams and also chances for more clean sheets. sooo md3 and 4 can yield more points.. .. whats your opinion on this??

[@FPLDylan]

I discuss it in the video, you can also use the Wildcard in Matchday 3 and get more points in Matchdays 3 + 4. Ultimately both of these strategies are the best on paper and it’s all down to personal preference.

Form over fixtures

[@sapach1406]

I still have to decide whether to play the Limitless chip on md4 o md5, currently leaning towards using it in md5. Unless something unspected happens such as too many injuries, i'll use my wildcard in md6, so that I can avoid rotation and target teams that still have something to play for.

[@FPLDylan]

That’s a sound strategy. In my experience, rotation in Matchday 6 is very unpredictable so you have to get that Wildcard spot on.

[@banjosandwitch]

I totally forgot about the cards last year and just played the game then the last 2 games with the best 4 teams wild carded and limitless used then was sure I had 4 great teams and if I picked the wrong 2 finalists I could change them

[@donthevalen]

waiting for this patiently, Girona on top of La Liga btw 👀

[@gurumanaise8710]

Thoughts on playing the wildcard in md5 because my md1 team is good for md 3 and md 4? I can just target teams and fixtures for 5 and 6.

[@FPLDylan]

That could be the right solution for your team - I just prefer using it a bit earlier to set the team up for 4/5 Matchdays.

[@thomaspappernator4418]

Same for me Guru

[@TheLegendofRenegade]

Is it possible to cancel your wildcard by activating the Limitless chip, or is it too late now its been activated already?

[@FPLDylan]

You can’t reverse either chip once you confirm your transfers.

[@francisedwards8786]

Can you roll transfers in this game? I am looking at limitless MD3, I think our teams will still look good from 1 and 2 and early fixtures from the bigger teams. If someone misses out on the second night we know not to bring in etc. Wildcard I love the idea of going to teams that score a lot in the final rounds and even if they beat they should do well then you have wildcard if needed to reset. Whereas if I didn’t have that option I think I’d play way too safe.

[@FPLDylan]

You can only roll transfers in the group stages (which allows you to save up to 3 free transfers).

[@ItsDalmas]

Im thinking of playing Wildcard in md2 bcs I have 4 trash players despite the 89 points of md1!(dimarco,bastoni,zomer ,Ivanusec,blaswich) what do you think bro?

[@FPLDylan]

That’s fine, you could also use the Limitless this week then Wildcard in Matchday 3 to target the same fixtures back to back. Most engaged managers will use a chip this week.

[@thomaspappernator4418]

Ll2 for me too. But my team is set for MD3&4 so will WC MD5/6

[@FPLDylan]

I’m seeing more people considering a Wildcard in Matchday 5 which is good to see.

[@Dawn-qp9tx]

In fpl What move do I make? I Have 1FT and 0 million in bank. I have Flekken Areola Botman Schär Estupiña Cash Udogie Maddison Mbeumo Diaby Salah Saka Haaland J.Alvarez Archer.

[@FPLDylan]

I don’t think you need to make a move unless Saka or Maddison are ruled out.

[@dackjaniels443]

Isn't saka injured?

[@FPLDylan]

No
