The ‘Der Klassiker is the highlight of the week in Bundesliga Fantasy and with multiple key players missing out for Borussia Dortmund, top of the table Bayern Munich might make quick work of them as they head towards a ninth consecutive Bundesliga title.

| Rank | Name | Team | Opponent | Value | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Robert Lewandowski | FCB | Vs BVB | 24.8M | Lewandowski has 28 goals in 22 games this season and at this rate, he will beat Gerd Müller's record of most goals in a single Bundesliga season with 41 goals. |
| 2 | André Silva | SGE | Vs VFB | 19.8M | Silva has scored in each of his last five games and no reason why he shouldn't extend that streak against Stuttgart who concede plenty of shots. |
| 3 | Thomas Müller | FCB | Vs BVB | 21.5M | Bayern have scored an average of 4.8 goals in their last five home games in the 'Der Klassiker' so if more of the same is expected then a Bayern double up in attack could be rewarding. |
| 4 | Erling Braut Haaland | BVB | @FCB | 20.5M | The absence of Sancho and Guerreiro who lead the team in big chances created per game might result in a lack of chances for Haaland but he is capable of moments of individual brilliance. |
| 5 | Max Kruse | FCU | @DSC | 11.5M | Kruse had six goals and five assists in 10 games before injury and scored on his return with a penalty against Hoffenheim. Now, he plays Arminia who've conceded atleast three goals in each of their last five games but Kruse remains as goal-dependent for points as ever. |
| 6 | Saša Kalajdžić | VFB | @SGE | 6.7M | |
| 7 | Wout Weghorst | WOB | @TSG | 19.1M | |
| 8 | Alassane Pléa | BMG | Vs B04 | 16.6M | |
| 9 | Andrej Kramarić | TSG | Vs WOB | 17.3M | Wolfsburg just had their eight game clean sheet run snapped in a mid week game but it might still be too much of a task for out-of-form Kramarić to score against them. |
| 10 | Alexander Sørloth | RBL | @SCF | 14.3M | He has shown some improvement over his last few games but needs to do more to justify his hefty price tag. |
Midfielders
| Rank | Name | Team | Opponent | Value | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Filip Kostić | SGE | Vs VFB | 18.5M | Kostić has scored above 10 points in all but one week since MD13. Simply unreal. |
| 2 | Christopher Nkunku | RBL | @SCF | 16.5M | |
| 3 | Joshua Kimmich | FCB | Vs BVB | 18.9M | |
| 4 | Dani Olmo | RBL | @SCF | 18M | This is a great matchup for Olmo as Schalke is the only team which has conceded more shots than Freiburg this season. |
| 5 | Amin Younes | SGE | Vs VFB | 7.8M | |
| 6 | Jadon Sancho | BVB | @FCB | 21.6M | There is a chance that he doesn't play at all and even if he does he might be tormented by Davies again but his recent form is too good to ignore and Bayern's defense has been out-of-sorts to say the least. |
| 7 | Amine Harit | S04 | Vs M05 | 12.2M | He has had steady scores in the last few matchdays and is the only player I would consider against Mainz from the team at the bottom end of the table. Harit is my boom or bust differential pick for the week. |
| 8 | Jonas Hofmann | BMG | Vs B04 | 13.6M | Borussia are on the same boat as Leverkusen with their losing streak but Bayer are reeling with injuries in defense and haven't kept a clean sheet in their last 11 games. |
| 9 | André Hahn | FCA | @BSC | 4.7M | Most might've not noticed, but Hahn is a bonus points magnet and has double digit scores in his last 4/5 starts. Hertha currently have the worst form in the league along with Arminia and are yet to win a game under Dárdai. |
| 10 | Milot Rashica | SVW | @KOE | 12.2M | Rashica has gone from fantasy favourite to failing to score this season within a year but is worth a shout since he is one of the few players with a Sunday game. |
Defenders
| Rank | Name | Team | Opponent | Value | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Angeliño | RBL | @SCF | 17.1M | There seems to be an ongoing conflict between him and the manager but I assume he starts against Freiburg. |
| 2 | Borna Sosa | VFB | @SGE | 5.5M | |
| 3 | Paulo Otávio | WOB | @TSG | 9.7M | He was able to match Lacroix last week who scored simply because of his bonus but those who plan to bring him in should know that he is now one yellow card away from suspension. |
| 4 | Raphaël Guerreiro | BVB | @FCB | 17.1M | Guerreiro had the best game of the season against Bayern with 22 points but his absence could be the final nail in the coffin for their title ambitions this season. |
| 5 | Niklas Süle | FCB | Vs BVB | 12.1M | If Dortmund misses their key players and Bayern dominate the game then right-back Süle could wreak havoc on their vulnerable left-side. |
| 6 | Christopher Trimmel | FCU | @DSC | 10.7M | Arminia are trying their best Schalke impression and a clean sheet is on the cards for European football hopefuls Union Berlin. |
| 7 | Erik Durm | SGE | Vs VFB | 3.5M | |
| 8 | Moussa Niakhaté | M05 | @S04 | 4.6M | A game against the worst attack in the league is already convincing and an added advantage is that Niakhaté is on penalties and Schalke have conceded the most of them. |
| 9 | Ludwig Augustinsson | SVW | @KOE | 9.3M | Koln have scored just once in their last three Bundesliga games. |
| 10 | Mads Pedersen | FCA | @BSC | 1.6M |
Goalkeepers
| Rank | Name | Team | Opponent | Value | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Stefan Ortega | DSC | Vs FCU | 6.4M | |
| 2 | Robin Zentner | M05 | @S04 | 4.6M | Schalke has been a rewarding game for keepers recently with shot-stoppers averaging eight points in their last four games against the blues. |
| 3 | Koen Casteels | WOB | @TSG | 10.9M | It's easy to picture Wolfsburg keeping a clean sheet having done so for the last seven Bundesliga games. |
| 4 | Andreas Luthe | FCU | @DSC | 5M | |
| 5 | Florian Müller | SCF | Vs RBL | 4.5M |
