How the optimal team is built

The optimiser runs a constrained search over every legal squad — respecting budget, positions, club/nation limits and formation — and returns the line-up with the most expected points.

Frequently asked questions

How does the Sofascore Champions League optimal team work?

It uses your players' predicted points and the game's squad rules to compute the single highest-scoring legal line-up, including captain and bench.

Can I use it to plan a wildcard?

Yes — the optimal team is ideal for wildcard and free-hit planning because it ignores your current squad and finds the best possible team from scratch.
