FORWARDS/MIDFIELDERS
Robert Lewandowski, BAY v. ATM ($23): The matchup isn't overly favorable for Lewandowski, but that's not going to stop Bayern Munich. In their final four UCL matches last campaign, Lewandowski had four goals and three assists from 10 shots on target and eight chances created. While Atletico have allowed just one goal through four league matches, none came against a team like Bayern. Lewandowski has similar odds to score as Sergio Aguero ($19), but the latter has a low floor and is unlikely to go a full 90 after returning from a knee injury over the weekend. Given some absences, you could stack four Bayern players and still have enough money, as Thomas Muller ($18), Kingsley Coman ($14) and Douglas Costa ($12) don't cost an overwhelming amount. Of note, Bayern's implied goal total may be the lowest they've had in months, sitting just above two goals. Because of that, there is a viable route to fading them, but just know they can score four or five goals against anyone in the world.
Mohamed Salah, LIV at AJA ($22): Ajax have had decent success in the Champions League in prior seasons, but they lost a few players from last campaign and have allowed one goal in each of their last
