Bundesliga Fantasy Football 2020/21
GW16 DEADLINE FRIDAY 15th January 19:30PM
With the Bundesliga seemingly taking over the bulk of the chat on site a couple months ago when it was the only fantasy game in town, we decided that we should give it a home for the season, after a bit of coaxing. 😉
We won’t be posting a weekly article, but we will update the screenshots and the links within this article so you are getting relevant info for each gameweek as it comes along. We did come up with a set piece table and a pair of trackers to help you out as you build your teams.

Bundesliga Fixture Tracker
Bundesliga Tracker we don’t know what to call
This screenshot could be a bit confusing at first. If you have played fantasy Bundesliga though then you will know about the importance of knowing when your players kickoff times actually are.
“As a manager you can substitute players at any time. If you remove a player that has already played during a matchday you will lose his points and you will not be able to put him back on the field during that match day. However, you can change your star players with players from your line-up as long as their club is yet to play.”
Basically you can manually sub players out if you do not like their score. You can also change captains (there are 3 – a Defender, a Midfielder and a Forward per GW) which really makes who you place on your bench and what transfers you make very important. This game is not just about buying the best players is about having the right guys lined up to replace them in case they have a bad game.
The tracker above tells you when certain teams play compared to others. Ideally you will have your players a bit spread out over the GW for the reasons mentioned above. When looking at it, any team with a 1 next to it plays first which during the GW and in most cases that is ideal. As you get to captain/play players that you can sub out easily if they don’t perform. Any teams with a 4 next to them is not ideal (part of it depends on the fixture difficulty) in terms of their slot, as they play last that GW. If they fail, you will be stuck with whatever score they give you.
Quick recap:
1 = Ideal, the team plays first with plenty of time to sub if the player doesn’t score well, plus the possibility of getting it right on the captaincy in the first game.
2 = Good, gives you subs or captains that are separate from most of your 15 man team and still have other fixtures after it in case the players in this fixture don’t perform.
* = Average, this is where most of your players will land on a weekly basis. You always want the best players, but if they all play at the same time it does limit your chances a bit to make subs and get the captaincy right.
4 = Not ideal, Simply said, if your player doesn’t perform here there is no more chances to sub. Any team with a 4 beside it plays last.
Remember to always look at this particular tracker in conjunction with the regular tracker. In most cases you would not transfer out a Lewandowski just because he plays last. Last season when I looked at stuff like this it was more for the mid level, punty types. As most of us will own a Lewy and Sancho (if he stays) in FBL, so how you score when compared to others many times comes down to how those value picks or slight differentials perform. If you are able to buy those players with better time slots on top of decent fixtures, well one would think you will have given your team a better chance of scoring well.

Guten Tag fellow FBL players
How’s your scores so far?
Sitting on 82 with Kamada (c) & Luthe Gk to go.
No show from Kimmich?
No show from Iago?
No show from Schlotterbeck (injured)
Sancho taking up a chunk of cash, didn’t see him play
Is he still worth it ?
may move him on to upgrade defence to a couple of premium options.
Team
Plz rate
I’ve 119. With only Luthe probably to bring in for Hummel (4).
Also had Kimmich no show but I knew about that. It’s personal reasons not injury so should be back next game.
Sancho was erratic playing as no9. He came off just before the hour. Think he’s worth keeping if Haaland also starts
Nice score Otieno :good:
Was thinking of boosting my defence
If I’m keeping Sancho my bank will be for defenders from 4 to 5m.
Finding it’s a mine field in that price bracket,
Any tips?
106 with 2 to play. Lots of no shows this week. I really shuld pay attention to lineups postings.
That is a good score Mosc.
I am only on 86 with 2 to play, and they are defenders from Koln and Frankfurt. Don’t expect any fireworks there.
mosc, did you get the CL Regs code on email?
Tornado too, if you happen to see this.
I saw some chat a couple of weeks ago where guys were losing 0 and 1 pointers,seemingly after the round had finished. I have 11 points sitting on the bench(forgot the sub, watching matches) .Can I somehow swap my deadbeat playing now for my 11 point hero?
Yes, received it last night before bedtime. Thanks for the invite.
@Kruz, no. You have to have them in your team before their game starts. You can only remove them after they have played not the other way around.
All Bundesliga screenshots updated.
Mito baby, is there any news on Akanji and Kimmich for this weekend ?
Kimmich played 90mins vs Atletico in CL so assume he’s fit?
Yeah, I expect Kimmich to play, Akanji 50/50 based on line up predictions.
Done my 3 transfers
Swapped Gnabry for Müller
Tweaked my defence (with players that hopefully play lol)
Kept goalies the same even tho they play each other, so no swapping them.
Good luck guys :popcorn:
I did the same last night and got Muller for Gnabry. Not happy with Pavard performance this season so swapped him for Angelino. With the saved cash upgraded Hasebe to Kempf from Stuttgart.
Looks like the game has hit a glitch and has not updated on points since kick off. Just looked and I have 0 points and rank 1 when I should have 29.
German efficiency ain’t all it’s cracked up to be.
Your score will be above your team lineup, but not in the top info.
Hi Fantasy Bundesliga players. Quick question. If I put my star onto Lewa today, can I change it later today onto Haaland (in the later game) if I want to? Or can you only change star onto a player who’s yet to play on a different day?
Chipster, yes. If you are not happy with Lewa’s score you can move it to Haaland before the start of the game. In fact, you can move it as many times as you like on the same day, providing that the player is yet to play.
Chipster, Lewandowski with a brace at half time.
I doubt you will be tempted to move the star on Haaland 😉
I’m more than happy with Lewy as star at the moment. And Upamecano (24 pts each). Kimmich will probably get changed to Sancho later today.
Otieno, think I am gonna gamble these 3 points too and move it to Sancho. Schalke are atrocious this season, haven’t won a game yet and have conceded 16 goals. Surely Sancho should be able to recover the lost points.
As much as it’s tempting to give Hummels the star, I think 21 points from Angelino is enough :yes:
Missed the time on changing my midfield star from Kimmich to Sancho. Don’t think it will be too much difference
I just returned home….missed to put Reyna on pitch. I have plenty of 1-2 pointers on pitch. This round is gone.
So far, just an assist to Haaland. The good news is Hummels scored, maybe I should have risked the star on him.
