RankNameTeamOpponentValueComments
1Thomas MüllerFCB@B0415.9MThere is no clear-cut top forward this week but Bayern almost always top the charts for shots so they are always a good bet to score plenty of goals. Müller in particular, has been great against Bayer Leverkusen over the past few years with three goals, seven assists and just one blank in his last eight games against them.
2Niclas FüllkrugSVW@BMG9.5MBoth teams are out of form but I would still back Füllkrug to score in the early game rather than any Borussia forward.
3Andre SilvaRBL@BOC14.3MForsberg and Werner are both in better form but Silva was the only one rested in the mid-week game.
4Sadio ManéFCB@B0417.3M
5Mergim BerishaFCAvs S0410.5MI wish I could rank him higher but despite Schalke conceding two goals to Dortmund, I think they will make it tough for Berisha to score.
6Emil ForsbergRBL@BOC11.8MMost in-form Leipzig player with a goal in each of his last four games and an assist but he is every Bundesliga Fantasy manager's bane because he tends to flop when everyone gets him.
7Marcus ThuramBMGvs SVW13.9M
8Marius BülterS04@FCA5MHas three goals and and an assist in his last three games like Forsberg but is as inconsistent as him.
9Randal Kolo MuaniSGE@FCU14.4MAgain a quick reminder that he has blanked in two games in a row only once this season but has a limited ceiling against the league's best home defence which has only conceded eight goals in 11 games.
10Michael GregoritschSCF@M0510.7M

1Dominik SzoboszlaiRBL@BOC16MHe blanked in the reverse fixture which Leipzig won 4-0 but with Nkunku out, I am hoping for a different result this time.
2Jonas HofmannBMGvs SVW16.6MSince it is a home game, I am actually expecting Borussia to turn up this time with goals for both sides hopefully.
3Marco ReusBVBvs KOE15.8M
4Rodrigo ZalazarS04@FCA4.9MMy favourite Schalke pick for this week.
5Christoph BaumgartnerTSGvs BSC12.9MNo one thought it was possible but Hoffenheim are finally at the bottom of the table. This is the easiest fixture they have for the rest of the season so it is do or die in this game and I am willing to punt on Baumgartner.
6Lars StindlBMGvs SVW11.6MIf only I had an extra transfer this week.
7Jae-Sung LeeM05vs SCF7.9M
8Yannick GerhardtWOB@VFB7.2MWolfsburg have a different midfielder scoring every week but my money is still on Gerhardt.
9Vincenzo GrifoSCF@M0515.2MHe had zero shots and a single key pass against the worst team in the league, looked dejected after they got knocked out of the Europa and plays against one of the best teams at defending set-pieces in the league. That is three strikes for me.
10Florian WirtzB04vs FCB13.3MToo crazy to expect Leverkusen to score against their fierce rivals?

Defenders

1Raphaël GuerreiroBVBvs KOE13.4MGuerreiro is peaking right now with scores of 17+ in each of his last four games and is predicted to start in midfield again. Koln have only scored in one of their last seven games, so I can't see how this ends well for them.
2Alphonso DaviesFCB@B0418.6M
3Josko GvardiolRBL@BOC11.5MI would've preferred Henrichs but only Orban and Gvardiol seem nailed for this game.
4Borna SosaVFBvs WOB13.7MProbably the most overlooked player right now. His scores in his last four games - 9, 16, 20 and 9. He only has a cleansheet in one of them.
5Mitchell WeiserSVW@BMG4.9M
6Paulo OtávioWOB@VFB8.8M
7Christian GünterSCF@M0514.2M
8Christopher TrimmelFCUvs SGE9.4MI am expecting both teams to keep it tight in this game so not expecting too many points from Trimmel.
9Marvin PlattenhardtBSC@TSG5.8MHoffenheim last won a Bundesliga match in October and their last draw was almost two months ago so I won't be surprised if Hertha beats them.

It is derby week in the Bundesliga with many local rivals facing each other and we take a look at the impact it has in fantasy in our Bundesliga Fantasy player rankings for matchday 24.

RankNameTeamOpponentValueComments
1Sadio ManéFCBvs FCA15.9MMüller is a doubt, Musiala might play limited minutes or deeper while Mané is well rested. Seems like a good week to punt on him and he is on sale too.
2Randal Kolo MuaniSGEvs VFB14.3MAs reliable as Kolo Muani is, Stuttgart's defence has tightened up over the last few games and I think Bayern are just likely to score more goals so their attackers have a higher ceiling.
3Jamal MusialaFCBvs FCA15.9MMore likely than not that Gravenberch slots in for Goretzka so Musiala isn't a very big risk.
4Ludovic AjorqueM05@BSC8.8MAjorque right now reminds me of Füllkrug at the start of the season. Cheap, overlooked and consistent. He has three double digit scores in the last four games including an 11-pointer in the last game without a return. Mainz are on a four game winning run so he could be a good differential.
5Michael GregoritschSCFvs TSG10.6MBest forward with a standalone fixture this week.
6Niclas FüllkrugSVWvs B049.2MThis matchup has generally been low-scoring over the past few years but with Alonso being adament that he doesn't need to rotate much after playing his full strength XI in the Europa League, I think we might see some goals in this game.
7Moussa DiabyB04@SVW15M
8Sébastien HallerBVB@S0413.7M
9Andre SilvaRBLvs BMG14.1M
10Sheraldo BeckerFCU@WOB12MUnion already beat Wolfsburg 2-1 in the Pokal just over a month ago, so they have a good idea what it takes to beat them. That being said, Becker's inconsistency is keeping me away from this one.

1Florian KainzKOEvs BOC9.5MThe best standalone fixture this week + on sale.
2Vincenzo GrifoSCFvs TSG16.9MHoffenheim is the most out of form team in the league having lost each of their last six games and not winning a game since October but they are also one of the worst teams at defending set-pieces.
3Jude BellinghamBVB@S0416MBellingham was at his fantasy-best when Reus was out and Brandt hadn't hit form. This is one of the biggest derbies in the world and there is incentive for both teams to win the game so expecting it to be open even though Schalke have conceded only once in their last six Bundesliga games.
4Florian WirtzB04@SVW13.4M
5Dominik SzoboszlaiRBLvs BMG15.8M
6Jonas HofmannBMG@RBL16.7MI have ranked him low but I will probably hold him considering his record against top 6 teams. Still expecting a Leipzig win.
7Joshua KimmichFCBvs FCA18.3MBetter fantasy-wise when Goretzka isn't playing but hasn't hit a double-digit score since MD14, so I am not sure he is worth the price.
8Jae-Sung LeeM05@BSC7.9M
9Linton MainaKOEvs BOC4.6MPredicted to play OOP up top.
10Yannick GerhardtWOBvs FCU7.3MInvolved in Wolfsburg's last 3/4 goals.

Defenders

 

NameTeamOpponentValueComments
1João CanceloFCBvs FCA13.1MIn this week's Nagelsmann roulette, Cancelo is predicted to start and Davies is predicted to be benched.
2Jonas HectorKOEvs BOC11MHector is someone worth looking at regardless of the fixture. He is averaging 10.2 points over the last five games and has played against teams like Union, Wolfsburg, Eintracht Frankfurt and Leipzig in that period. Worth noting that Bochum haven't scored even once in their last three games.
3Raphaël GuerreiroBVB@S0413MIf you can't help but get him every time he is predicted to start, I don't blame you. He has scores of 18, 17 and 28 in just his last three matches with four assists. Also great for star flexibility this week.
4Jeremie FrimpongB04@SVW13.8M
5Christian GünterSCFvs TSG14.1MFeels like a straightforward cleansheet considering Hoffenheim haven't scored in three games but always worried that this might be the game they bounce back in.
6Borna SosaVFB@SGE12.2MSosa's attacking potential > Frankfurt defenders with higher cleansheet odds.
7David RaumRBLvs BMG13M

Bundesliga Fantasy Player Rankings for Matchday 23

Leave a comment

The title race is heating up in the Bundesliga, but so is the fight for a spot in Europe and a place in the Bundesliga for next season. With many potential six pointers this week, we take a look at the teams to target and players to consider in our Bundesliga Fantasy player rankings for matchday 23.

Forwards

 

RankNameTeamOpponentValueComments
1Thomas MüllerFCB@VFB15.8MChoupo-Moting has gone from being a backup with barely any minutes to the first casualty when the manager needs to make subs before an important game so I think Müller is more safer here.

He is in better form with two goals and three assists in his last five Bundesliga matches and Stuttgart is one of his favourite teams to play against as he has four goals and six assists in his last 11 games against them with just one blank away from home.
2Randal Kolo MuaniSGE@WOB14.1MA quick reminder that Kolo Muani has blanked in two games in a row just once this season.
3Jamal MusialaFCB@VFB15.9MSlowly picking up form with Kimmich+Goretzka back in midfield but feels like an early sub risk with the PSG game coming up.
4Karim OnisiwoM05vs TSG11.6MMainz are on a three-game unbeaten streak and convincingly thrashed Borussia at home so I can't see how they won't do it against vs the most out of form team in the league. Just not sure I want to spend a transfer on him with so many popular players predicted to not start this week.

Update: He is a doubt for this week according to Ligainsider.
5Michael GregoritschSCF@BMG10.7M
6Niclas FüllkrugSVW@FCA9MLikely holding him this week if Weiser returns.
7Andrej KramarićTSG@M0514.1MHoffenheim have their backs on the wall and it is sooner rather than later that they win. Although Onisiwo is better on paper, I am leaning towards Kramarić. If they don't win against Mainz, they definitely have to win at home against Hertha next week.
8Sardar AzmounB04vs BSC10.3M
9Mergim BerishaFCAvs FCA10.1M
10Marcus ThuramBMGvs SCF13.8M



Midfielders

 

RankNameTeamOpponentValueComments
1Jonas HofmannBMGvs SCF16.6MAs streaky as he has been, I am willing to hold my recency bias back and get burned again by starring him at home to Freiburg. He is averaging 13.8 points at home and over 20 points in 60% of the games against top 6 teams.
2Vincenzo GrifoSCF@BMG16.9MWas close to securing top four spot if Borussia actually had their four first-choice keepers out this week. Sippel isn't too bad and there is a chance that Omlin comes back. Still expecting a good game for Grifo.
3Christopher NkunkuRBL@BVB17.7MNkunku is basically Hofmann but without the inconsistency. Despite being out for a while, he is still second for goals scored with 12 and even though he blanked in the reverse fixture which Leipzig actually won 3-0, I think he is too good to leave out. Especially if Dortmund have second-choice full-backs playing.
4Florian WirtzB04vs BSC13.1MPretty much the only Leverkusen attacker worth considering.
5Marco ReusBVBvs RBL15.5MThis a game between two teams who are tied for having the second best attack as well as the second best defence in the league. So it could go either way but I still prefer Nkunku.
6Jae-Sung LeeM05vs TSG7.8MThe midfield options aren't as great as the forward options so Lee is probably worth a punt after three consecutive double-digit scores in a row of 17, 10 and 19.
7Rodrigo ZalazarS04@BOC4.6MSchalke have finally learnt how to score and Zalazar looked like the most dangerous player for them in the last game. He always had the talent but Schalke now managing to retain a good amount of possession in games certainly helps. So it isn't surprising that he is averaging over 10 points a game in the last three games since he returned from injury.
8Leon GoretzkaFCB@VFB15.4M
9Christoph BaumgartnerTSG@M0514.3MKramarić is the one getting more shots and key passes but Baumgartner is the most active player for the team in attack so if they win, I can't see how he won't do well either.
10Jesper LindstrømSGE@WOB13.8M

Defenders

1Alphonso DaviesFCB@VFB18MIf you have Davies or plan to get him in, make sure to drop a small prayer hoping that he crosses 70 minutes this week.
2Jeremie FrimpongB04vs BSC13.8M
3Josip JuranovićFCUvs KOE7.7MWith Gießelmann and Roussillon both being a doubt, Trimmel could still sneak a start in.
4Moritz JenzS04@BOC3.5MBochum have scored a grand total of zero goals over the past three games while Schalke have conceded just once in their last four. Jenz is boring but is still probably the best Schalke defender from a fantasy perspective.
5Anthony JungSVW@FCA2.5MOn set-pieces if Weiser remains out?
6Christian GünterSCF@BMG12.7M
7Mitchel BakkerB04vs BSC9.6M
8Philip MaxSGE@WOB9.1M

Bundesliga Fantasy Player Rankings for Matchday 22

Bundesliga matchday 22 promises a lot of excitement with great games such as Bayern Munich vs. Union Berlin, who are both tied at first. But with so many tricky fixtures to navigate, getting your transfers right is a challenge. We are here to help with our Bundesliga Fantasy player rankings for matchday 22.

Forwards

 

RankNameTeamOpponentValueComments
1Niclas FüllkrugSVWvs BOC8.7MHe was Werder Bremen's hero in the reverse fixture scoring both of the goals in a 0-2 win and I am backing him to score again.
2Sébastien HallerBVB@TSG13.6MDortmund have scored the most goals over the last six games (19) whereas Hoffenheim have conceded the most (18) over the same period. It is that simple (but I still prefer BVB midfielders more).
3Mergim BerishaFCA@BSC10M
4Randal Kolo MuaniSGE@RBL14.1MIf someone has to score for Eintracht Frankfurt in this game, it is probably him, so I am happy to hold him for another week and focus elsewhere.
5Marcus ThuramBMG@M0513.8M
6Karim OnisiwoM05vs BMG11.7MBorrusia have been underwhelming to say the least against lower-ranked teams and even more so away from home. So Onisiwo isn't that bad of an option this week considering he has four goals in his last two home games.
7Michael GregoritschSCFvs B0410.7M
8Philip HofmannBOC@SVW6MBochum have slipped into the relegation zone with one win from five, so I am expecting this to be an open game.
9Jonas WindWOB@KOE11.2M
10Eric Maxim Choupo-MotingFCBvs FCU6.1MEven Ajax failed to dent Union's defence and they haven't conceded more than two goals in a game since November, so I am happy to fade Bayern attackers and hope that they put out a tough defensive performance again.



Midfielders

 

RankNameTeamOpponentValueComments
1Julian BrandtBVB@TSG15.5MNkunku is not predicted to start but I am more than happy to have Brandt as the #1 midfielder. He has a return in his last 6/7 games and is averaging 12 points over the last eight matches.
2Jonas HofmannBMG@M0516.6MAccording to Fantasy BL Stats, Hofmann have a 12.5% chance to get 20+ points against a bottom six team vs 60% against a top six team which really says it all. I will take the chance since he plays Mainz in the early game and try my luck over the next two weeks as he faces Freiburg and Leipzig.
3Vincenzo GrifoSCFvs B0416.6MPossible full dominance on set-pieces with Günter out?
4Marco ReusBVB@TSG15.1MGiving him the edge over Bellingham because he has a great record against Hoffenheim with five goals and an assist in the last seven games against them.
5Dominik SzoboszlaiRBLvs SGE15.6MThis game could go either way but there are few decent attacking picks this week and Szoboszlai is one of the safer ones.
6Lars StindlBMG@M0511.6MStindl has been flying under the radar but he has been as good as Hofmann or even better with four goals and three assists in his last six games.
7Jae-Sung LeeM05vs BMG7.4MA differential to consider if you expect Mainz to win and you are chasing ranks. He has four goals and an assist in his last five games while only starting in three of them.
8Chris FührichVFB@S048.1MBeen Stuttgart's biggest attacking threat over the last few matches and is averaging almost four shots a game over the past four games.

1Borna SosaVFB@S0413.2MSlowly showing signs of his old form with a goal and an assist in his last two matches.
2Raphael GuerreiroBVB@TSG12.7MThis slow was originally reserved for Ryerson but since he is ruled out, Guerreiro should be nailed for this week.
3Jeremie FrimpongB04@SCF13.7MExpecting Leverkusen to concede here but Frimpong has a unique opportunity this week in front of him. Günter is suspended due to accumulation of yellow cards and misses out being in the Freiburg starting XI for the first time in 134 games. Which means Frimpong will be going up against Kübler who is actually a right-back and has never played at left-back. That gives him plenty of attacking upside this week.
4João CanceloFCBvs FCU13.2M
5Ramy BensebainiBMG@M0512.7MReplace with Caci if you expect Mainz to win.
6Paulo OtávioWOB@KOE8.5MFC Köln's attack looks a bit thin with Kainz being ruled out so hoping for a cleansheet here.
7Robert GumnyFCA@BSC4.7M
8David RaumRBLvs SGE13.1M
9Christopher TrimmelFCU@FCB9.6MI would've loved to rule him out completely but Union have proved that they can beat any team and in a massive six-pointer between teams tied for first, anything can happen. Trimmel even scored 17 points in the reverse fixture.

Bundesliga Fantasy Player Rankings for Matchday 21

There are some interesting games this week with Union taking on Schalke, Dortmund taking on Hertha, and Bayern taking on old rivals Borussia to name a few. We take a look at the best players in each position in our Bundesliga Fantasy player rankings for matchday 21.

RankNameTeamOpponentValueComments
1Randal Kolo MuaniSGEvs SVW13.8MLast week was his first blank in six matchdays. He has blanked in consecutive games only once, so I am fully backing him to do well here.
2Serge GnabryFCB@BMG16.3MMy top differential for this week. Even though he is predicted to play as a wing-back, he won't be able to help himself and bomb forward into the box. With Sommer switching allegiances, it should be even easier to score.
3Sébastien HallerBVBvs BSC13.6MIf I had a transfer to spare on a Dortmund attacker, I think my first priority would still be one of their midfielders.
4Jamal MusialaFCB@BMG15.5M
5Mergim BerishaFCAvs TSG9.9MHoffenheim have conceded 12 goals just over the past three games. Augsburg haven't done any better in terms of form with just six points off their last six matches but that does not make Berisha a bad pick. He is the only viable asset from the team with 10 G/A in 14 Bundesliga games and will probably score again if Hoffenheim don't turn things around.
6Steffen TiggesKOE@VFB4.2M
7Michael GregoritschSCF@BOC10.3M
8Eric Maxim Choupo-MotingFCB@BMG6.1MLosing steam and not predicted to start by all sources so I would be a bit careful.

1Vincenzo GrifoSCF@BOC16.3MBochum are third for the most goals conceded from set-pieces (10) after Hertha (13) and Eintracht Frankfurt (12), so this is Grifo territory.
2Julian BrandtBVBvs BSC15.3M14, 16 and 11 in the last three matches. Hertha might've won the last game but considering how much bad Borussia have been, I will pass that as a fluke.
3Florian WirtzB04vs M0513.1MPredicted to play OOP again.
4Florian KainzKOE@VFB10.5M
5Joshua KimmichFCB@BMG16.3MAll the signs are pointing at a Borussia rout and Kimmich is available on a big discount this week.
6Jude BellinghamBVBvs BSC15.7MYou might want at least one Dortmund midfielder for star flexbility this week and Bellingham is the best option if you want to look beyond Brandt.
7Ritsu DoanSCF@BOC10.4M
8Dominik SzoboszlaiRBL@WOB15.2M

5Benjamin PavardFCB@BMG12.6MSimilar scores as Davies over the past few games and less risky.

1Danilho DoekhiDEFFCUvs S046.2M
2Ellyes SkhiriMIDKOE@VFB9.7MA bit unconvential but hard to look away from when he has been Koln's top scorer over the past five games with five goals and an assist.
3Philip HofmannFWDBOCvs SCF5.8MFreiburg are favourites on paper but their defence isn't out of the water as they have conceded 15 goals over the past six games. Only Hoffenheim have conceded more with 19.
4Arne EngelsMIDFCAvs TSG1.5M
5Ralf FährmannGKPS04@FCU1.6M
6Jeff ChabotDEFKOE@VFB4.6MOverlooked despite averaging 8.1 points per game across his seven starts this season.

RankNameTeamOpponentValueComments
1Eric Maxim Choupo-MotingFCBvs BOC6.1MBochum are in good form but they are the team with the worst record away from home for a reason and I can't see how Bayern don't score at least four goals here. The morale is high, pretty much their entire attack is in good form and they have scored 7, 2 and 7 goals in their last three Bundesliga games against them.
2Randal Kolo MuaniSGE@KOE13.9MKoln were able to hold Leipzig goalless but Kolo Muani is too hot to ignore. It is like Frankfurt's best players over the last few years never left like Kostic, Haller, Jovic and Silva as he is filling in for all of them with 19 G/A in just 18 games. He has blanked only once in his last 11 Bundesliga games and I am sure he will find a way to be involved in goals again.
3Kinglsey ComanFCBvs BOC14.4MComan has been lethal on the wings since winning a starting spot in the team and had five shots while the rest of the team struggled to have more than one.
4Sébastien HallerBVB@SVW13.5MReactionary? Maybe but against Freiburg he looked like he never left and with almost the entire Dortmund attacking cast fit, he will have plenty of chances against Werder Bremen.
5Jonas WindWOB@S0411MSchalke suddenly learning how to defend reduces his upside a bit.
6Leroy SanéFCBvs BOC16.6MWith Kimmich out, Musiala and Müller might play deeper, which is why Sané is a better option to me. I would've loved to rank him higher but I am still a bit concerned about his minutes with the UCL game against PSG coming up as he is Bayern's go-to player for the tournament.
7Marcus ThuramBMG@BSC13.8MA bit overlooked right now but Hertha are a lot worse than Schalke right now, so he could be a good differential.
8Michael GregoritschSCFvs VFB10.2M
9Mergim BerishaFCA@M059.8MScored in three consecutive games.
10Andrej KramarićTSGvs B0413.9M



Midfielders

 

RankNameTeamOpponentValueComments
1Vincenzo GrifoSCFvs VFB15.9MAlways back Grifo against a team that sucks at defending set-pieces.
2Julian BrandtBVB@SVW14.9MStill split between Brandt and Reus but Brandt has been BVB's best attacker in the last few games averaging 12.1 points over the last six.
3Mattias SvanbergWOB@S0411.3MThe focus has been on Wimmer lately but Svanberg has two goals, two assists, 12 shots, four key passes in the last three Bundesliga games.
4Florian WirtzB04@TSG12.8MPredicted to play OOP up top.
5Jonas HofmannBMGvs BSC14.6M
6Jesper LindstrømSGE@KOE13.6M
7Marco ReusBVB@SVW14.7M
8Dominik SzoboszlaiRBLvs FCU15MSzoboszlai can go off in any game but Union always make it tough for attackers to get any bonus points let a lone score or assist.
9Ritsu DoanSCFvs VFB10.2M
10Christoph BaumgartnerTSGvs B0414.3MNew manager bounce?

Defenders

1João CanceloFCBvs BOC12MI was clearly wrong to think that he is out of form. If you don't own him yet, now is the best time as he is on sale.
2Paulo OtávioWOB@S048.3M
3Christian GünterSCFvs VFB13.7MA team that is struggling to keep cleansheets and a team that always struggles to score with a striker who hasn't scored in 14 games this season up front. I think I will back the defence here.
4Alphonso DaviesFCBvs BOC17.3MNot predicted to start by all lineups.
5Ramy BensebainiBMG@BSC12.8MBorussia's defence is far from the best but Hertha haven't scored in three games.
6Jeremie FrimpongB04@TSG13.3M
7Philip MaxSGE@KOE8.2MDid not look any special in his Frankfurt debut and Koln is far from an easy game.
8Silvan WidmerM05vs FCA9.4MConsidering that almost half of Augsburg's goals have come because of Berisha, I think it is easier for Mainz to keep a cleansheet here than Augsburg.
9Julian RyersonBVB@SVW6M
10Josip JuranovićFCU@RBL7.8MThis game could easily end 0-0.
