not indisputable which players should be in your Bundesliga Fantasy team ? Fear not, for every week bundesliga.com scouts out tips and picks ahead of the matchday. From premium players to budget-busting differentials, look no further… >> Click here to build your Fantasy squad!

For each put in the plot – goalkeepers, defenders, midfielders and forwards – we take a count at one actor per price bracket ( agio picks, mid-range options and budget busters ) most probably to get you ahead. bundesliga.com has your Fantasy fasten for Matchday 17 … Goalkeeper Premium pick Kevin Trapp (Eintracht Frankfurt) 8.8M It ‘s normally winger Filip Kostic lapping up the plaudits for Eintracht Frankfurt, but goalkeeper Kevin Trapp is no less deserve of the praise. The Eintracht custodian scored 10 points in the midweek succeed over Borussia Mönchengladbach, despite conceding doubly. He stood up to a late attack, scoring nine points for saves alone as the 10-man Eagles held on to record a fifth win in six matches. With Jonny Burkardt and Karim Onisiwo doing the bid for Mainz, Trapp should be kept on his toes once more, in the Rhine-Main bowler hat. Mid-range option Oliver Baumann (Hoffenheim) 7.8M
 There ‘s not much between Trapp and Oliver Baumann in terms of measure. however, the class books suggest Hoffenheim ‘s No.1 could have a little more to do against out-of-form Gladbach. TSG are unbeaten in five Bundesliga matches, but have conceded at least once in four of them. however, in three of those fixtures, Baumann ‘s reached double figures for points. Faced with a Borussia team despairing to end a four-match lose streak and with captain Lars Stindl back in the ranks after suspension, Die Kraichgauer ‘s top-six credentials can expect a stern test – one their last man of defensive structure might barely pass with flying colours . Oliver Baumann has helped Hoffenheim climb to fourthly on the back of a five-match unbeaten discharge.

Budget buster Manuel Riemann (Bochum) 5.9M Manuel Riemann ‘s fresh off a 2-0 loss to Arminia Bielefeld, but do n’t let that dissuade you. He ‘s even third among goalkeepers for total points, aided and abetted by a healthy average of seven per plot, and has kept five clean sheets on family territory already this temper. Bochum have n’t lost on their own patch in five, while visiting Union Berlin – although more than adequate to of doing damage through Taiwo Awoniyi and Max Kruse – do not travel well. Defender Premium pick Raphael Guerreiro (Borussia Dortmund) 14.1M Raphael Guerreiro ‘s miss Borussia Dortmund ‘s death two matches, meaning the Portugal external has now sat out as many league matches as he ‘s played this season. In the eight he ‘s been involved in, though, Rapha ‘s produced three goals and one help. It ‘s not Erling Haaland levels of regularity, but there ‘s no doubt he brings a little extra punch to Dortmund ‘s attacking play. Assuming he ‘s fit – keep an eye on bundesliga.com for confirmation of that – the BVB valet should have a playing field day against a Hertha Berlin side overwhelmed by Mainz ‘s roaming wing-backs this past workweek . A burst Raphael Guerreiro will ask dangerous questions of Hertha Berlin, just as he did of city rivals Union earlier this temper.

Mid-range option   Silvan Widmer (Mainz) 8M speak of which, Silvan Widmer picked up 25 points for his function in Mainz ‘s 4-0 rout of Hertha – 38pts as leading defender. The swiss right-back scored one and made another, giving him his best single-game catch of the campaign. With 123pts all told, it ‘s a huge surprise to learn he ‘s alone on the books of five percentage of Fantasy Managers. Kostic will surely keep him invade defensively on Matchday 17, but he should n’t be short-change of space in behind Frankfurt ‘s leading man, either. The more you think about it, Widmer ‘s a no-brainer. Budget buster

Joe Scally (Borussia Mönchengladbach) 2.3M Backing a lose horse might raise a few eyebrows, but Joe Scally is hush an invaluable option in defense. After a trio of sub-zero showings, the American arrange in a far more impressive display in Gladbach ‘s defeat to Frankfurt. He hit 10pts at one stage, ultimately finishing the pit on six, despite an sparkling display up and down the right-hand flank. There ‘s no reason why he ca n’t hit like heights against Hoffenheim, who could find themselves being stretched to the soap by the former New York City FC child. Midfielder Premium pick   Christopher Nkunku (RB Leipzig) 17.1M We keep backing Nkunku, but distillery only a little over a quarter of all Fantasy managers ( 28 per cent ! ) have heeded the birdcall. He ‘s the highest scoring midfielder in the game by some distance, and second highest overall behind Robert Lewandowski. The Frenchman ‘s scored, assisted or both in nine of Leipzig ‘s last 11 league games, translating into double digits in all matches in which he ‘s contributed at least one goal. After tallying just six points in the 1-1 draw in Augsburg, expect the Leipzig amulet to unload at home plate to second-bottom Bielefeld. Watch: Christopher Nkunku ‘s top 5 goals
Mid-range option Julian Brandt (Borussia Dortmund) 11.7M julian Brandt ‘s performances under Marco Rose have gone under the radar slightly this season, but he ultimately appears to have his feet under the postpone in this, his third campaign as a Dortmund player. The Germany international ‘s registered four goals and four assists, including two of the former and three of the latter across his last four Bundesliga outings. His brace of assists helped Dortmund unlock a well-drilled Greuther Fürth defense on Wednesday, amounting to 16 points ( only one less than the two-goal Haaland ). With Jude Bellingham out against Hertha through suspension, Brandt will relish the extra lock-picking duties. Budget buster Reece Oxford (Augsburg) 3.3M Picking players formally listed under one status, but who actually play elsewhere is a useful tactic in Fantasy Manager. Selecting a musician set to face the Bundesliga ‘s bottom golf club and leakiest defense is besides good logic. Augsburg centre-back Reece Oxford already has a copulate of goals from corners this season, putting him lone one behind striker Florian Niederlechner in the clubhouse scoring charts, and ranks as his team ‘s top frump for aerial challenges won. Make no error : the Englishman will be a terror at both ends of the field in Saturday ‘s relegation six-pointer – a Bavarian-Franconian bowler hat no less – in Fürth. Forward Premium pick Robert Lewandowski (Bayern Munich) 20.8M A threat of an altogether different kind, Robert Lewandowski needs merely one more goal to break Gerd Müller ‘s calendar-year score record. The Bayern striker has struck 42 times in 2021, with 18 of those efforts falling during the first 16 matches of the current campaign. even when kept repose for long periods in Stuttgart, he however managed to put away a brace. Another multiple-goal indicate is a gamey probability in the Friday nox game against Wolfsburg. They have n’t won in six, and they ‘re Lewy ‘s darling opposition. The Striker of the year has rattled off 23 goals in 20 Bundesliga meetings with the Wolves, including his unforgettable five-goal haul in nine minutes in September 2015. Watch: Robert Lewandowski ‘s record-breaking fusillade against Wolfsburg
Mid-range option Anthony Modeste (Cologne) 9M A hitter in a Sunday repair is never a bad idea, flush if you do n’t have anyone to strip of the star. Anthony Modeste is potentially the most profittable choice in that regard, after ending a four-game barren spell with a pair against Wolfsburg. The Frenchman ‘s 10 goals are split over seven of his 16 appearances, with braces accounting for his end three scoring showings. Cologne have failed to score and lost merely once at home in 2021/22, while relegation-threatened Stuttgart just shipped five without answer to Bayern. You do the mathematics. Budget buster

Jamie Leweling (Greuther Fürth) 3.5M We highlighted Fürth ‘s struggles earlier in the firearm, but there have been signs the Clover Leaves might not be the pushovers they once were. victory over Union has lifted the temper in the clique, and the final 3-0 scoreline in defeat to Dortmund did not reflect their performance by any elongate. Germany U21 external Jamie Leweling caused Mats Hummels real bother at times and, while unable to add to his three goals from 15 shots so far this term, is arguably the club ‘s best stake against Augsburg .
