Liverpool (LIV) vs Real Madrid (RM) Fantasy Suggestions

Liverpool (LIV) vs Real Madrid (RM) Dream 11 tips

With Liverpool chasing the game and Real Madrid facing an injury crisis, it could be a good option to captain Mohamed Salah. Although Liverpool have struggled this season, the 'Egyptian King' has been in fine form and scored in the first leg as well.

For the vice captaincy option, it has to be Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema. The Frenchman has been a real talisman for Los Blancos this season and he could exploit the spaces left behind the Liverpool back line.

Leaving Vinicius Jr out could be a huge call. The Brazilian winger put in a stunning performance in the first leg but if his dream 11 points total is analyzed for the last few matches (apart from the match against Liverpool), he often looks threatening but does not gain too many points.

Another option that can be taken is to go with a back 3 of Trent Alexander-Arnold, Robertson, Militao and a midfield of Asensio, Kroos, Modric, Casemiro and Mane.

Fantasy Suggestion #1

Alisson Becker; Robertson, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Eder Militao, Nat Phillips; Toni Kroos, Luka Modric, Casemiro, Sadio Mane; Mohamed Salah (C), Karim Benzema (VC)

Captain: Mohamed Salah (LIV), Vice-captain: Karim Benzema (RM)

Fantasy Suggestion #2

Alisson Becker, Robertson, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Eder Militao; Toni Kroos, Luka Modric, Casemiro, Asensio, Sadio Mane; Mohamed Salah (VC), Karim Benzema (C)

Captain: Karim Benzema (RM), Vice-captain: Mohamed Salah (LIV)
