In this Fantasy Bundesliga article, we will not be focusing on the most obvious picks such as Jamal Musiala and Harry Kane.

Instead, we will highlight players with a maximum ownership percentage of 20%, who could offer great value as differentials for Matchday 26.

 

El Chidaille Bitshiabu, RB Leipzig (Defender, 6M, 0%)

Bitshiabu has moved ahead of Castello Lukeba in the pecking order at the back for Leipzig, and Marco Rose has no reason to drop him after Die Roten Bullen kept a clean sheet against Freiburg last week. Bitshiabu took 216 points from that game and offers a cheap way into the Leipzig backline at just 6 million.

 

Patrick Mainka, Heidenheim (Defender, 8M, 0%)

Mainka has been a solid Fantasy performer all season, averaging a respectable 160 points per game despite Heidenheim’s struggles. This week, Franck Schmidt’s side will be rare favorites as they welcome Holstein Kiel to the Voith-Arena in a must-win game..

 

Nordi Mukiele, Bayer Leverkusen (Defender, 10M, 0%)

After missing Leverkusen’s 2-0 loss to Bayern in midweek due to suspension, Mukiele is widely tipped to start against Stuttgart. A strong duel player, the Frenchman has occasionally produced really strong returns – for example, he scored 307 points against Leipzig on Matchday 19, 298 points against Wolfsburg on Matchday 21, and 376 points against Eintracht Frankfurt on Matchday 24.

 

Noah Weisshaupt, St. Pauli (Midfielder, 7M, 0%)

Weisshaupt has been a key player for St. Pauli since joining on loan from Freiburg in the winter, although he has yet to register a goal or an assist. That could change against Hoffenheim, with Weisshaupt expected to play out of position as a striker.

 

Steven Skrzybski, Holstein Kiel (Midfielder, 8M, 0%)

Another midfielder who’s expected to play up front, Skrzybski is coming off a brace against Stuttgart. Despite starting just one of Kiel’s last five Bundesliga games, he’s scored six goals in that time. He could add to his tally against a Heidenheim side that rarely manage to keep a clean sheet.

 

Romano Schmid, Werder Bremen (Midfielder, 10M, 4%)

Schmid returned from illness to score in Werder’s impressive 2-0 away win over Bayer Leverkusen last week. That performance and that win should give the midfielder and his team plenty of confidence as they prepare to host a Gladbach side that lost 1-3 to Mainz last time out.

 

Nadiem Amiri, Mainz (Midfielder, 13M, 8%)

One of the key players in Mainz’s win over Werder, Amiri scored a whopping 290 points, bringing his average to 195 points per game. Heading into this week’s home game against Freiburg, Mainz are in great form and Amiri has plenty to celebrate, having just been called up to the German national team.

 

Oliver Burke, Werder Bremen (Striker, 4M, 0%)

Costing just 4 million, Burke has recently emerged as a starter for Werder. Having just beaten Leverkusen 2-0, there is no real need for Werder to make any changes other than taking out Mitchell Weiser, who is suspended. Having found the net three times in all competitions so far this season, Burke is one of the cheapest starters in the game at the moment.

 

Budu Zivzivadze, Heidenheim (Striker, 8M, 0%)

So far, Zivzivadze hasn’t given Heidenheim the boost up front they were hoping for when they signed him from Karlsruhe during the winter transfer window. But the Georgian international finally got on the scoresheet against Hoffenheim last week, producing arguably his best performance for Frank Schmidt’s side to date. He should have a good chance of getting on the scoresheet once more against defensively struggling Kiel.

 

Andrej Kramaric, Hoffenheim (Striker, 10M, 6%)

Disappointingly, Kramaric only managed to pick up 133 points against Heidenheim last week. In general, though, he has been one of Hoffenheim’s best performing fantasy assets this season. At a cost of 10 million, the Croatian veteran is capable of producing both goals and assists, and Hoffenheim face a St. Pauli side that are winless in six Bundesliga games.
