Bundesliga Fantasy Must-have/Template Players On Wildcard for MD8

The last few weeks have been absolute chaos for Bundesliga Fantasy Players due to all the injuries and players falling ill out of nowhere. But thanks to Bundesliga, we have another wildcard at our disposal for the international break. We take a look at players that will be highly owned and the template team for the wildcard:


Forwards

 

Robert Lewandowski: Some things in life are always constant. Such as Lewandowski scoring goals and being in almost every team there is. He is the first person to have in your team.

Erling Braut Håland: There were major concerns regarding his availability for the restart but they have been cleared since then. As per coach Lucien Favre’s words, “He is 100% ready.” Håland also has a new competitor for his spot in the first team in youth player Youssoufa Moukoko who turned eligible to play this week. There is a lot of hype surrounding the wonderkid who has scored 141 goals in 88 youth games but it has been deemed too early for him to start by sports director Micheal Zorc.

Andrej Kramarić: The players at TSG Hoffenheim are falling ill left, right and centre but hey, at least their best player is back right? Along with having great fixtures, he also offers full star flexibility with Lewandowski and Håland for four weeks straight.


Midfielders

 

Lars Stindl: Borussia has been ruthless recently scoring 9 goals over their last 2 games. Stindl and Plea have been their two best-attacking players over these games and the absence of Hofmann until next year tosses away the question between selecting him and Stindl. Might be this way even after Hofmann’s return since he was playing really deep which halted his fantasy production. All eyes will be on him when he plays Schalke on MD9.

Giovanni Reyna: He is a big bargain at 7.9M when you consider the premium you have to pay for Sancho who isn’t really in the best form right now and gets the same amount of points.

Christopher Nkunku: He is slowly getting into his stride and racking up bonus points like usual but he isn’t necessarily a template player. This spot for a second premium midfielder can be experimented with. Fan favourite Filip Kostić who returns to action this week is a good shout.

Florian Wirtz: Another great budget pick at 6.7M, he was in great form before the international break getting 13 points in each of his last 2 games. It is hard to pass up on him with that form for the price and the fact that he plays Arminia, Hertha and Schalke next which are all great games.

Defenders

 

Angeliño: The highest scoring defender so far this season, he has scored 3 goals for Leipzig in 7 games while conceding just 4 goals. The least in the league. He is easily the best premium defender.

Raphaël Guerreiro: He has been relatively quiet this season but kept his best performance of the season for the Der Klassiker where he created 8 big chances and assisted both the goals. Guerreiro plays so high up on the pitch at times that he is almost a winger. So more attacking returns can be expected from him.

Lucas Hernandez: The injury to Alphonso Davies makes him the undisputed left-back for Bayern and while he might not be the most attacking defender there is, he is a constant source of bonus points such as duels won. He is the only Bayern defender worth getting at least until Davies returns.


Goalkeepers

 

Frederik Rønnow: He has saved 75% of the shots he has faced this season and averages 7 points while costing just 2.1M. Now Schalke head coach Manuel Baum has declared him as their #1 so he is essential. Rønnow is so reliable that having him as the only keeper for fantasy seems like a viable option.


Bench

 

Florian Müller: Gikiewicz’s lack of fantasy production means that Müller is the next good option again. Along with being the 2nd cheapest keeper at 3.6M, he rotates well with Rønnow for 5 out of the next 6 weeks (Freiburg play Schalke on MD12).

Christopher Trimmel: Union have conceded just 7 goals and have scored the 2nd highest goals so far this season after Bayern with 16. Even though he isn’t playing as attacking since Union are passing the ball more centrally through Kruse, he still remains a threat with set-pieces. You could even go with Lenz or Freidrich to open up budget here.

Maxence Lacroix: Wolfsburg got a dream run coming up as they play Schalke, Bremen and Koln in the next few weeks. It is a defensive team playing against teams that have struggled defensively so Lacroix could be a shrewd pick at 4.4M. If you want a more attacking player then Borna Sosa from Stuttgart (4M) could be the one you are looking for.

Mateo Klimowicz: He has featured consistently in the Stuttgart XI over Didavi recently and for someone who is just 1.4M, he is very consistent with his average of 6 and also has immense potential.


The Template XI

Bench: Frederik Rønnow (GK), Christopher Trimmel (DEF), Maxence Lacroix (DEF), Mateo Klimowicz (MID)

Bundesliga Fantasy Differential Picks: Matchday 6

Bundesliga Matchday 5 was a good week with most of the template players doing well but the real money was in the differentials such as Nkunku, Sarr, Alario, Mateta and Arnold who ended being some of the top scorers of the week. We look to find some hidden gems again as matchday 6 edges closer. Here are our differentials for the week:


Forwards

 

Florian Niederlechner: He has been overlooked this season and its not surprising considering he has registered no goals and one assist in five games. However, Mainz looks like a punching bag for forwards right now conceding 12 goals over their last four and Niederlechner boasts a good record against them. He has scored 2 goals and assisted one in his last two games against them.

Wout Weghorst: Wolfsburg had been in deep slumber offensively failing to win and only drawing every game while struggling to score over 1 goal. The win against Arminia Bielefeld should give them confidence against Hertha who have been worse defensively. Weghorst has scored in his last two games and a matchup against a team that struggles to defend set-pieces is a good matchup.


Midfielders

 

Daniel Caligiuri: Augsburg have begun the season with some tough games but it eases a bit as they play Mainz and Hertha (2nd and 3rd most goals conceded) back-to-back. Caligiuri is easily the best midfielder to get from the team as he is very attacking and is also on set-pieces.


Defenders

 

Bouna Sarr: Bouna registered an assist on his debut ending up with 18 points and is the cheapest entry into the Bayern defence currently at 9.3M. He offers much more than Pavard and at about 5M less.

Iago: If you feel like Augsburg players are worth the investment then Iago is the defender to get.


Goalkeeper

 

Frederik Rønnow: Yeah he plays for the worst defence in the league at Schalke but he is a gem at 1.8M registering 6 and 9 points for saved shots in his last two games. He is only a differential because he is owned by 5% or less but is actually a must-have. I expect him to save plenty of shots again against Stuttgart.


Differential XI MD6
