UCL Fantasy Matchday 4 Differentials – Best Low-Owned Picks
@Big4FPL’ UCL Fantasy Matchday 4 Differentials – Best Low-Owned Picks could be the key to climbing the overall rankings this week. While most managers focus on the highly owned stars, it’s often the overlooked players who provide the biggest gains.
Whether you’re using free transfers, activating Limitless, or planning an early Wildcard, differentials can make all the difference. I’ve picked two in each position (excluding goalkeepers) who could give your rank a real boost in Matchday 4.
Defenders
Federico Dimarco (€5.5m) – 5% owned
Dimarco’s benching against Union was frustrating, and rotation always remains a risk with Inter. However, given his importance to the side and recent form, he should be in strong contention to return to the XI. If he starts, he becomes one of the best defender picks this week, with a standout matchup against Kairat. The main drawback is the Day 2 fixture, which adds some risk around flexibility.
Alejandro Balde (€4.9m) – 2% owned
Barcelona defenders often feel risky with their attacking style of play, but Balde offers threat at both ends of the pitch. At just 2% ownership, he is a genuine differential in a favourable matchup against Brugge, where clean sheet potential and attacking involvement are both in play.

Midfielders
Bukayo Saka (€9.5m) – 2% owned
Early team news is key here. If Saka starts, he becomes one of the best premium punts of the week. Arsenal have leaned on set pieces recently (with Rice often benefiting), but this fixture offers strong open-play potential. Saka remains Arteta’s focal point, and at 2%, he’s a powerful differential captaincy shout for those chasing.
Enzo Fernández (€6.5m) – 5% owned
Enzo was close to featuring in last matchday’s picks, but the injury uncertainty held him back. He returned from that doubt to post an 8-point haul, scoring from the penalty spot. With another excellent fixture ahead, and still sitting at just 5%, he offers a reliable differential route into the Chelsea attack.
Forwards
Julián Álvarez (€9.0m) – 5% owned
Despite Atlético’s heavy defeat to Arsenal in the last UCL round, they have a much more favourable matchup this week. We’ve already seen Álvarez’s ceiling with his 15-point haul vs Frankfurt, and he’s well placed to get closer to that outcome than the Arsenal blank.
Georges Mikautadze (€6.0m) – 0% owned
This is a high-upside punt, best suited to Limitless or a squad that will be Wildcarded soon after. Villarreal face Pafos, and early rounds have shown the clear advantage in targeting both Pafos and Kairat. At 0% ownership, one haul could produce a huge rank swing in a week where many managers are concentrated on big teams in tougher fixtures.
