Bundesliga Fantasy Football 2023/24
With the Bundesliga also nearing a start we figured we give it a home again that way you Bundesliga managers have a home to discuss bad transfers and terrible captaincy choices.
We won’t be posting a weekly article, but we will keep this article up and though it will disappear from the front of the site, just use the “Hot Topics” link on the right to find your way back to this chat.

Bundesliga Fantasy rules changes season- 2024/25
Unlike previous seasons, now you can select only 3 players from each team. That shouldn’t be a great shock as we are well used in the FPL.
New points system goes huge:
80 points for a goal from a forward, 100 for a midfielder and 120 for a defender. Wait, a massive 200 points if somehow your goalkeeper scores. Assists are rewarded from 40 to 150 points, depending on position. Penalty saves get 120, bonuses of 20 for a brace and 60 for a hatrick are added too.
For a first time, dribble earns you 5 points, challenge won, either on the air or the ground, gets 5 points as well. Every successful cross brings 7 points and 1 for every successful pass.
On the flipside:
Deduction of 20 points for a yellow card, get a second one and it’s another – 60. Miss a spot kick is -60, scoring an own goal -80, every foul prompts 5 and a massive -100 for a strait red card.

gw2 has started. brought in szoboslai as a punt
the Bellingham punt pays off! Goal and assist
This could be an interesting wildcard week for FBL with the top 4 teams (imo) playing each other in GW4. And several of the teams I expect to finish bottom half also competing between themselves over the next 4 weeks (our next WC).
Right now I have only the big 2 Lewa and Haaland and Guerrero and nobody of leipzig or leverkusen currently. Went with several mid table players due to fixtures. Triple Wolfsburg though as Greuther Furth seem to be the whipping boys.
Reg, I am going with the current template
I’ve gone 3 from Freiburg. Their fixtures for the 4 weeks before the next WC seem too good and they are cheap!
Good idea Otieno.
Freiburg haven’t lost a game yet.
I might have a pip
***Bundesliga***
Deadline for your unlimited transfers 14:30 BST
what a game between LEV & BVB
3:4 BVB now with 15 mins left!
Well those TFRs weren’t very successful. I expected Hertha to get a better result
Bochum got beaten 7-0 by Bayern
Still, the GK finished on 5 points after 12 saves
…and Davies was subbed off at half time……..another 15 minutes would have great.
GM, are you keeping the armband on Lewa or going for Haaland?
I probably will go for Haaland seeing the DOR lineup (unless they rest a lot of players).
Me too. In the Bundes rotations are less likely.
