Bundesliga Fantasy is back after a two-week break and things are about to speed up from here as we countdown to the final three matchdays of the season. The two teams that dominate our player rankings for matchday 32 are Bayern Munich and Hoffenheim. The Bavarians host Borussia in a throwback “Klassiker” of the 70s while TSG locks horns against fallen giants Schalke that are already relegated at home.
Forwards
| Rank | Name | Team | Opponent | Value | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Robert Lewandowski | FCB | Vs BMG | 25.8M | Borussia are the big four team's kryptonite when they play at home but when you exclude their last away win against Schalke, they've conceded two goals against Hertha and three against Hoffenheim, Augsburg, and Leipzig in their last five games away from home. |
| 2 | Andrej Kramarić | TSG | Vs S04 | 18.5M | The Schalke team is low on morale because of the violence that ensued after their relegation was confirmed and with many senior players rumoured to never play for Schalke again, Kramarić could capitalize on a possible Schalke XI with youngsters in a revenge game after their embarrassing 4-0 defeat to the Royal Blues earlier this season. |
| 3 | André Silva | SGE | Vs M05 | 21.4M | In the last four games where Silva has started up top with Jović, he has scored five goals and assisted three. |
| 4 | Wout Weghorst | WOB | Vs FCU | 21.5M | |
| 5 | Erling Haaland | BVB | Vs RBL | 22.3M | Haaland has a brace in each of the two games he has played against Leipzig but is still a doubt for the match due to injury concerns. |
| 6 | Thomas Müller | FCB | Vs BMG | 23.7M | Müller hasn't gone more than two matches this season without a double-digit return so it is safe to say that he is due a big game. |
| 7 | Saša Kalajdžić | VFB | Vs FCA | 7.8M | Best paired with Sosa who has assisted five of his last nine goals but he is an easy fade otherwise if Sosa doesn't start even with the early fixture. |
| 8 | Leon Bailey | B04 | @SVW | 15.4M | Bremen currently have the worst form in the league with a loss in each of their last seven games and Leverkusen should cruise through with three points to fuel their European ambitions. |
| 9 | Matheus Cunha | BSC | Vs DSC | 16M | Overburdened by a hectic schedule right when he was starting to pick up some form. He might play limited minutes again this week but should still be a threat and have plenty of shots to himself. |
| 10 | Luka Jović | SGE | Vs M05 | 16M |
Midfielders
| Rank | Name | Team | Opponent | Value | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Filip Kostić | SGE | Vs M05 | 20.8M | You know there are no worries about star flexibility in a week when Kostić plays on a Sunday. |
| 2 | Jadon Sancho | BVB | Vs RBL | 21.3M | Leipzig might seem like an intimidating fixture but it is quite the opposite as Dortmund is their boogie team. The Bulls haven't won against BVB in their last six Bundesliga games and Sancho boasts an impressive record of two goals and three assists in five games against them. |
| 3 | Christoph Baumgartner | TSG | Vs S04 | 13.3M | Thrives in games where he gets to shoot at free will. |
| 4 | Joshua Kimmich | FCB | Vs BMG | 20.2M | If the only choices from Bayern's midfield are Kimmich and Goretzka, then the former is preferred with his floor and set-pieces duties even though he is a suspension risk. |
| 5 | Ondrej Duda | KOE | Vs SCF | 9.8M | If a worn-out Hertha team could do that much damage to Freiburg then a revitalized FC Köln is capable of more of the same. Duda has been the most key player for Koln in attack with five goals and an assist in his last six games and he could prove to be a worthy differential with games against Freiburg, Hertha and Schalke to end the season. |
| 6 | Yannick Gerhardt | WOB | Vs FCU | 8.3M | This guy has more shots in his last two games as an attacking midfielder than Wolfsburg's striker with 20 goals. |
| 7 | Dani Olmo | RBL | @BVB | 19.1M | Leipzig only score fewer goals on average against Bayern (1.0) than Dortmund (1.1) but there is potential for plenty of bonus points for Olmo especially with Nkunku out. He scored 12 points in the reverse fixture without being involved in any goals. |
| 8 | Ritsu Doan | DSC | @BSC | 10.8M | Spare a thought for the Hertha players. Many of them just recovered from Covid and are now playing their third game in six days. The Berliner's next game is a massive relegation six-pointer and with the pace at which other teams are catching up to Arminia, it will be a must-win game for them. |
| 9 | Daniel Caligiuri | FCA | @VFB | 12.5M | A bit of an overlooked pick, Caligiuri has scores of 11 and 10 in his last two games without any goals or assists. A small possibility that might change as the player going up against Stuttgart's third choice RWB has scored in each of the last two games. |
| 10 | Daichi Kamada | SGE | Vs M05 | 15.2M | Games against Mainz, Schalke, and Freiburg is just a perfect finale to end the season if you want to triple up on Frankfurt players. |
Defenders
| Rank | Name | Team | Opponent | Value | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Borna Sosa | VFB | Vs FCA | 6M | To remind you again about how good Sosa is in Fantasy Bundesliga, he has double-digit returns in 8 of his last 11 games. If you still aren't convinced, he was averaging 12 points per game during that period. |
| 2 | Pavel Kadeřábek | TSG | Vs S04 | 10M | He has scores of 20 and 21 hidden amongst sub-par scores of 1s and 2s but this is a ceiling game for him given how bad Schalke are on both ends of the pitch. |
| 3 | Raphaël Guerreiro | BVB | Vs RBL | 17.6M | His big outings are hard to predict but I still prefer him over Angeliño considering the recent record of both teams against each other. |
| 4 | Paulo Otávio | WOB | Vs FCU | 9.3M | Not expecting any Pohjanpalo heroics this time. |
| 5 | Alphonso Davies | FCB | Vs BMG | 15.6M | If Bayern are able to put the recent losses against PSG and Mainz behind them then this might quickly turn sour for Borussia on the champion's expected coronation day. |
| 6 | Angeliño | RBL | @BVB | 17M | Some of his start of the season form was on display in his 17 pointer in the last game against Stuttgart but Leipzig haven't kept a clean sheet against Dortmund in their last eight games while suffering the most defeats in the Bundesliga against BVB than any other team. |
| 7 | Erik Durm | SGE | Vs M05 | 3.5M | |
| 8 | Maximilian Mittelstädt | BSC | Vs DSC | 8.5M | Mittelstädt has been fully rested for this game and given how badly Arminia have struggled to score this season, there is a good chance he keeps a clean sheet to go along with some bonus points. |
| 9 | Daley Sinkgraven | B04 | @SVW | 5.2M | |
| 10 | Phillip Mwene | M05 | @SGE | 2.9M | I can't bring myself to accept that Mainz are good enough to secure a result away against Frankfurt and that the Eagles are in a slump similar to Borussia when Rose announced his early departure. But this doesn't change the fact that Mainz are good. Unbeaten in eight games and winning against Bayern good. P.S: Mwene seems to be on set-pieces for Mainz now. |
Goalkeepers
| Rank | Name | Team | Opponent | Value | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Stefan Ortega | DSC | @BSC | 7.4M | This game is more likely to be a snooze-fest than a goal-scoring one so Ortega is still the keeper to have. |
| 2 | Florian Müller | SCF | @KOE | 5.1M | The 3-0 thrashing by Hertha does raise some questions but at the least Müller is capable of plenty of points for saves. |
| 3 | Gregor Kobel | VFB | Vs FCA | 5.9M | |
| 4 | Oliver Baumann | TSG | Vs S04 | 9.8M | If you can justify the price tag for a one week punt against Schalke. |
| 5 | Marwin Hitz | BVB | Vs RBL | 1.9M |
