Top Fantasy Bundesliga Player Recommendations for Matchday 8
As we approach each matchday, we will spotlight ten players that could enhance your Fantasy Bundesliga lineup. This season, our focus is broader, encompassing a mix of differential picks and general recommendations.
Suggested Players for Matchday 8
Jonas Urbig, FC Bayern (Goalkeeper, €4.52M, 2% ownership)
Recent reports indicate that Jonas Urbig may receive a rare starting opportunity against Borussia Mönchengladbach. Although he might face challenges in accumulating points from saves, his attractive price makes him a viable option.
Vladimir Coufal, Hoffenheim (Defender, €7.23M, 8% ownership)
The Czech right-back has showcased impressive form, averaging 208 points over his past five matches. With contributions either as a scorer or a provider in three out of his last four appearances, his upcoming home game against a struggling Heidenheim team makes him a strong candidate.
Luka Vuskovic, Hamburger SV (Defender, €10.8M, 14% ownership)
Since joining Hamburger SV on loan from Tottenham, Luka Vuskovic has significantly strengthened the defense. His solid performances have translated into Fantasy points, averaging nearly 300 in his last four outings, contributing to the team’s recent upswing.
Nico Schlotterbeck, Borussia Dortmund (Defender, €13.77M, 5% ownership)
With an upcoming favorable schedule featuring Köln, Augsburg, and HSV, Schlotterbeck has remained consistent after recovering from injury, recording an average of 217 points in his last four games. His involvement in passing and dueling positions him well for further success.
Jonas Hofmann, Bayer Leverkusen (Midfielder, €5.08M, 0% ownership)
Having impressed with a surprise start and scoring 185 points last week, Hofmann could see another opportunity following his absence in the midweek clash against PSG. His strong recent performance and freshness make him likely to start again.
Christoph Baumgartner, RB Leipzig (Midfielder, €9.67M, 12% ownership)
Baumgartner’s last performance didn’t disappoint, as he scored twice, marking a second consecutive strong showing. It’s not too late to add him to your team, especially with Leipzig set to face Augsburg, who have struggled defensively this season.
Ritsu Doan, Eintracht Frankfurt (Midfielder, €16.47M, 37% ownership)
Though his recent Fantasy outputs have been below par, now is not the time to let go of the talented Japanese winger. He had a break during the Champions League and is poised to face teams like St. Pauli, Heidenheim, and Mainz next.
Christian Kofane, Bayer Leverkusen (Striker, €3.33M, 4% ownership)
Kofane has made quite the impression since taking over for the injured Patrik Schick, scoring in consecutive Bundesliga games. Despite a price increase, his affordability and expected start against Freiburg make him a valuable addition.
Can Uzun, Eintracht Frankfurt (Striker, €11.93M, 36% ownership)
Although he’s had a dip in form and was rested against Liverpool, Uzun could regain his scoring touch against St. Pauli, who are facing a string of poor results.
Andrej Kramaric, Hoffenheim (Striker, €12.13M, 2% ownership)
While younger attackers at Hoffenheim have received more focus, Kramaric is making headlines again after a strong performance last week where he scored and assisted, earning 312 points. He represents an excellent low-ownership option at only 2% ownership, particularly with a home match against Heidenheim on the horizon.
By considering these players, you can enhance your Fantasy Bundesliga team ahead of Matchday 8.
