Champions League Fantasy: Top 5 budget midfielders to choose

#4 Yacine Brahimi - FC Porto

Brahimi is one of the chief threats in Porto's attack

Group D has to be surely looked upon as a great place to find budget players, since any of the 4 teams can qualify from the group stage and none of them are particular European heavyweights. If one has to fancy a side to end up on top, it has to be FC Porto, who are proven Champions League performers year in year out.

Algerian winger Brahimi is available for only €7 and promises a lot of attacking returns. He has scored two goals in the League so far in four games and has undoubtedly been an instrumental player for Porto for years.

Although majority of Fantasy players have gone with Danilo Pereira due to his price (€5), he has played only 8 minutes for his team as of yet and is only deployed deep in midfield. The attacking winger Brahimi is a way better option for points.

Note: A cheaper alternative to Brahimi is Octavio (€6) who plays on the opposite flank and has scored 1 goal and provided 2 assist in the league.
