As we compile this list, we aim to prioritize lesser-known choices rather than the obvious picks, focusing on players who might provide excellent value as differentials.

Players to Watch

El Chadaille Bitshiabu, RB Leipzig (Defender, 2.25M, 0%)

With Castello Lukeba unavailable, Bitshiabu is expected to step in as a central defender against Heidenheim. While he may not deliver a high points total, his contributions through build-up play and defensive duels could yield solid returns. Given his affordable price and the advantageous matchup, he is an appealing choice for budget-conscious managers.

Hiroki Ito, FC Bayern (Defender, 9.74M, 0%)

Ito has recently switched from a starting role to coming off the bench in Bayern’s 2-0 Champions League win against Royale Union Saint-Gilloise. With Josip Stanisic and Konrad Laimer out injured and Alphonso Davies still recovering, Ito is likely to reclaim his left-back position for the home game against Augsburg. At 9.74 million and not owned by any managers, he represents a cost-effective option for a commencing Bayern defender and stands out as a differential.

Miro Muheim, Hamburger SV (Defender, 13.45M, 23%)

Muheim has been in excellent form, scoring over 200 points in four consecutive matches, making him a top choice among Fantasy defenders this weekend as HSV seeks redemption against their local rivals, St. Pauli, who currently sit at the bottom of the table.

David Raum, RB Leipzig (Defender, 18.12M, 26%)

Currently ranking as the second-highest scoring defender in the game, trailing only Alex Grimaldo, Raum becomes more enticing with Leipzig’s favorable fixture run beginning against Heidenheim. He’s approaching must-have status for Fantasy managers.

Vincenzo Grifo, Freiburg (Midfielder, 6.92M, 4%)

After starting on the bench during Freiburg’s 1-0 Europa League triumph over Maccabi Tel Aviv, Grifo is anticipated to return to the starting lineup for the enticing home match against 1. FC Köln. Although his performances in 2026 have been lackluster, his role in Freiburg’s offensive strategies and set-piece responsibilities could result in valuable contributions.

Christoph Baumgartner, RB Leipzig (Midfielder, 13.21M, 35%)

As another key player from RB Leipzig, Baumgartner’s season has yet to take off. Nevertheless, a sequence of favorable matchups provides him with a perfect opportunity to regain his form. He’s recorded six goals and seven assists already in the Bundesliga this season.

Nadiem Amiri, Mainz (Midfielder, 16.13M, 13%)

Following a bout of illness that sidelined him against Köln, Amiri returns for Mainz’s crucial home match against Wolfsburg. After impressive performances in his earlier matches, he aims to help secure a win for his team.

Patrik Schick, Bayer Leverkusen (Striker, 9M, 6%)

Leverkusen is eager to turn things around after three consecutive defeats, with a home fixture against Werder Bremen on the horizon. Schick has been pivotal in their attack, boasting eight goal contributions in 13 Bundesliga matches, giving him a strong chance of scoring against a Werder side that has conceded heavily lately.

Yan Diomande, RB Leipzig (Striker, 10.89M, 20%)

Having recently returned to the starting line-up after the Africa Cup of Nations, Diomande notched an impressive 230 points despite Leipzig’s loss against Bayern. With eight consecutive games yielding 200+ points prior to the winter break, paired with Leipzig’s favorable match schedule, he is an obvious Fantasy standout.

Romulo, RB Leipzig (Striker, 11.34M, 4%)

Starting the year on a high note, Romulo scored in both of Leipzig’s recent fixtures, including the recent 1-5 defeat to Bayern. As a critical aspect of Leipzig’s attacking endeavors, he represents a strong Fantasy option due to the team’s beneficial upcoming matchups, currently owned by just 4% of managers.
