GOALKEEPER
Keylor Navas, RM v. MCI ($4,200): The decision many will make between Manuel Neuer and Navas is far from easy, but what has persuaded me towards Navas is health. Bayern faces many injury concerns while Atletico Madrid appears poised to bring back two key cogs to their side in Yannick Carrasco and Diego Godin. Real Madrid, on the other hand, will get their superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, and possibly also Karim Benzema. Man City fielded mostly a B-squad against Southampton this past weekend, but four goals allowed is still four goals allowed.
DEFENDER
Filipe Luis, ATL at BAY ($4,000): Despite the mediocre stat line from the first leg, the lack of other options once again leaves me touting Luis. Even just another eight fantasy points could constitute his price on this short slate.
Juanfran, ATL at BAY ($4,100): Ditto on what I said for Luis, though Juanfran managed 10 fantasy points in the first leg.
Jerome Boateng, BAY v. ATL ($2,600): Boateng made his first appearance of 2016 this past weekend, starting and going 67 minutes against Borussia Monchengladbach. Any time there is a comeback from such a long injury layoff, there is much cause for hesitancy, but Boateng is a world-class defender at a backup's price.
MIDFIELDER
Lucas Vazquez, RM v. MCI ($3,500):Karim Benzema is

MIDFIELDER
Lucas Vazquez, RM v. MCI ($3,500):Karim Benzema is questionable ,and if he sits, Vazquez should start and borders must-use status at this price given that Real Madrid is such a heavy favorite.
Toni Kroos, RM v. MCI ($5,100): You know what's changed in utilizing Kroos since the last leg? Nothing. He is still on corners and comes with a double-digit scoring floor.
Yannick Carrasco, ATL at BAY ($4,100): After missing the first leg, Carrasco should return to the starting XI. He will almost certainly get subbed, but at this price he can meet value in 70 minutes on the pitch.
Kingsley Coman, BAY v. ATL ($4,700): With Franck Ribery questionable to play, Coman could once again find himself in Bayern's starting XI. He was fairly pedestrian in 64 minutes in the first leg, but he had either a goal or an assist in every other Champions League appearance this season.
FORWARD
Cristiano Ronaldo RM v. MCI ($8,800): After missing the first leg, Ronaldo appears ready to return to the lineup as Real Madrid plays at home. Not much really needs to be said on his regard outside the fact that he's the best player available on such heavily favorited side.
Karim Benzema, RM v. MCI ($6,300): There remains doubt over whether if he'll actually get the start, but at this price I'd be remised not to mention him. Even if he does start, do not expect him to stay in for the full 90 (or extra time) given his injury status.
Douglas Costa, BAY v. ATL ($7,000): Costa may come with the highest floor of anyone on this slate, especially if Ribery cannot play. Costa delivered 10 crosses on his way to 16 fantasy points in the first leg, and that number is pretty close to his floor, with upside more than doubling that amount.
