Real Madrid ST Kylian Mbappé vs. Roma
Projections via PrizePicks: 1.5 Goals (Demon), 5 Shots, 5.5 Shots on Target (Demon), 0.5 Goal + Assist (Goblin)
- Mbappé returned to action on Saturday after picking up an injury in the opening Nations League match of the international break. Real Madrid’s top scorer opened this Champions League campaign with a goal in the 2-1 win over Inter Milan last month.
- The Frenchman now has 9 goals and 2 assists in 10 appearances across all competitions for club and country. He won the World Cup Golden Boot this summer and appears on course for more individual hardware during the club season.
- Mbappé claimed his first Champions League Golden Boot last season, scoring 15 goals in 11 matches — one of three Golden Boots he won that year alongside La Liga and the World Cup.
- He leads Real Madrid with 5.5 total shots per game in La Liga and logged 4 shots, all on target, against Inter Milan on Matchday 1.
- Mbappé has now scored multiple goals in 16 of his 99 Champions League appearances. His 71 goals in the competition rank fifth all time.
Add Kylian Mbappé to your PrizePicks lineup now.
Liverpool LW Bradley Barcola vs. LASK
Projections via PrizePicks: 0.5 Goals (Demon), 0.5 Goal + Assist (Goblin), 2.5 Shots, 1.5 Shots on Target (Demon), 0.5 Assists (Demon)
- There is no denying that Barcola has arguably been the biggest disappointment of the new season. The French winger joined Liverpool from PSG at the end of the transfer window and has yet to register a goal contribution for his new club or his country in 10 appearances combined.
- New manager Andoni Iraola will need his new signing to be aggressive, particularly given the injuries his side faces in attack heading into Matchday 2. Liverpool are likely to be without Dominik Szoboszlai, Alexander Isak, and Cody Gakpo for Wednesday’s match.
- Barcola managed 3 shots in Liverpool’s 2-1 Matchday 1 win, finishing with 0.76 xG. He missed 3 big chances and could easily have opened his Liverpool account on the night.
- With so many key players unavailable, Barcola is now the most experienced member of Iraola’s front three. Liverpool will look to play through the left side, and with his squad heavily favored, Barcola should see plenty of opportunities on Wednesday afternoon.
- The 24-year-old finished his final season at PSG with 19 goal contributions, and it is only a matter of time before he rediscovers that form. Wednesday’s match against LASK looks like the ideal stage for the talented winger to finally get going for his new club.
Pick Bradley Barcola + Liverpool to win on PrizePicks.
