Bundesliga Fantasy: Player Rankings for Matchday 29

Freiburg and Schalke might’ve switched roles last week with the former losing against Arminia Bielefeld and the latter winning against Augsburg but the bottom-placed club is still the team to target when these two sides face each other in our Bundesliga Fantasy player rankings for the final Englische Woche of the season.

Forwards

Rank	Name	Team	Opponent	Value	Comments
1	André Silva	SGE	@BMG	21M	Despite having a tough schedule over the last few games playing four of the top six teams, Silva was able to score or assist in each game and Frankfurt have been absolutely ruthless in their last two home games scoring five goals against Union and four against Wolfsburg, the fourth best and second best defenses in the league respectively. In the absence of fans due to covid, this game shouldn't feel like an away one.
2	Erling Haaland	BVB	Vs SVW	21.2M	He hasn't scored in his past seven games so to say that he is due a goal is an understatement.
3	Thomas Müller	FCB	@WOB	23.2M	Wolfsburg haven't won against Bayern in 11 games and it is easier to picture the Bavarians dominating again with Max Arnold missing out for the Wolves.
4	Max Kruse	FCU	Vs VFB	12.1M
5	Alexander Sørloth	RBL	Vs TSG	15M
6	Ermedin Demirović	SCF	Vs S04	7.8M	Schalke is the team to target even after their surprising but unconvincing victory against Augsburg who only had one win in the last 10 games against their boogie team. However, Demirović is prone to rotation and might play limited minutes due to the midweek game.
7	Marcus Thuram	BMG	Vs SGE	15.6M
8	Saša Kalajdžić	VFB	@FCU	7.8M	His purple patch has probably ended and with consecutive games against Union, Wolfsburg and Leipzig, I won't bet on him to score even though he is certainly capable of it.
9	Wout Weghorst	WOB	Vs FCB	21.1M	Weghorst has only scored once against FCB in his five games against them and might be deprived of service with Arnold out and Gerhardt filling in as a defensive midfielder.
10	Matheus Cunha	BSC	@M05	16M	That's a decent nine points (14 with star) if the game is postponed. Hoping that the affected players get well soon.

Midfielders

Rank	Name	Team	Opponent	Value	Comments
1	Christopher Nkunku	RBL	Vs TSG	17.6M	This game either ends 1-0 or 4-0. It is hard to predict.
2	Filip Kostić	SGE	@BMG	20M	The last three games between these teams have all been a high-scoring affair with a minimum of four goals in each game and considering the contrasting form of both teams, we could see something similar along the lines again.
3	Dani Olmo	RBL	Vs TSG	18.7M	Two early games against Hoffenheim and Koln next make Nkunku+Olmo worth doubling up.
4	Rolland Sallai	SCF	Vs S04	8.9M	Boom or bust differential for this week only as the game next week against Hertha might be postponed.
5	Leroy Sané	FCB	@WOB	19.6M
6	Giovanni Reyna	BVB	Vs SVW	9.3M	Gives you half the thrills of owning Sancho on a budget with an individual fixture this week.
7	Ritsu Doan	DSC	@FCA	10.2M	Augsburg this week + Schalke next week
8	Jonas Hofmann	BMG	Vs SGE	13.7M	Borussia have made it a habit to turn up against big teams and give up points against the smaller one and its the same case with Hofmann.
9	Amine Harit	S04	@SCF	12.2M	Schalke only play "bad" teams except Frankfurt until the end of the season but the only caveat is that Schalke is the bad team here.
10	André Hahn	FCA	Vs DSC	5.5M

Defenders

Rank	Name	Team	Opponent	Value	Comments
1	Raphaël Guerreiro	BVB	Vs SVW	17.2M	Bremen currently have the worst form in the league with four losses in a row and even if you don't have Haaland or Reyna then Guerreiro offers some cover with his involvement in attack.
2	Borna Sosa	VFB	@FCU	6.3M	The fixtures will keep getting tougher for Stuttgart but Sosa is still untouchable.
3	Nordi Mukiele	RBL	Vs TSG	11.2M	Hoffenheim had just two (!) shots in the entire game against Bayer Leverkusen last week. Replace Mukiele with Angeliño if he starts.
4	Christian Günter	SCF	Vs S04	11.9M	Potential ceiling game for Günter if Freiburg don't flop like they did against Arminia.
5	Lucas Hernandez	FCB	@WOB	12.4M
6	Christopher Trimmel	FCU	Vs VFB	11.3M
7	Erik Durm	SGE	@BMG	3.4M	Other than his fluky goal last week (first BL goal in five years), Durm isn't a bad option to have especially with key players returning in defense for Frankfurt.
8	Kevin Mbabu	WOB	Vs FCB	12M	Lewandowski has scored in each game against Wolfsburg since 2015 but even though he won't be there to torment them the Wolves have struggled defensively after their seven consecutive clean sheets run ended where they mostly played struggling teams.
9	Jeremie Frimpong	B04	Vs KOE	8.6M	Hoffenheim's failure to register even one shot on target last week can be attributed to their incompetency or Leverkusen's strong defensive display but whatever the case, Köln isn't the worst game to keep a clean sheet.
10	Ramy Bensebaini	BMG	Vs SGE	12.2M	In the highly unlikely event that Borussia keep a clean sheet against Frankfurt.

Goalkeepers

Rank	Name	Team	Opponent	Value	Comments
1	Florian Müller	SCF	Vs S04	5M	It is hard to decide between Müller and Ortega again with the former having a better chance at a clean sheet but less likely to make more saves.
2	Stefan Ortega	DSC	@FCA	7.2M	A strong argument can be made for either keeper to start over the other with Ortega having more potential for points for saves. Fact: Ortega had zero points in the reverse fixture and Müller had nine.
3	Marwin Hitz	BVB	Vs SVW	1.5M	Hitz is an enabler with an individual fixture this week.
4	Gregor Kobel	VFB	@FCU	6M
5	Ralf Fährmann	S04	@SCF	6.5M
