Fantasy Bundesliga tips: 10 players to consider for Matchday 32
In this Fantasy Bundesliga article, we will not be focusing on the most obvious picks such as Florian Wirtz and Harry Kane. Instead, we will highlight players with a maximum ownership percentage of 20%, who could offer great value as differentials for Matchday 32. Advertisement Jeff Chabot, VfB Stuttgart (10M, 5%) Affectionately known as 'the bouncer', it comes as no surprise that Jeff Chabot doesn't hold back in the heart of Stuttgart's defence. He picked up 233 points last time out largely from duels and build-up play despite a 1-0 defeat to Heidenheim. The Swabians will be eager to bounce back against this time around. Daniel Svensson, Borussia Dortmund (7M, 4%) Once again, Borussia Dortmund's full-back finds his way into our players to consider article this week. The Swedish youngster made it back-to-back flawless performances with two assists in BVB's 3-2 victory over Hoffenheim last weekend, in which he amassed 379 points. Advertisement Dimitrios Giannoulis, FC Augsburg (9M, 3%) On this occasion I prefer Giannoulis to his slightly cheaper teammate Marius Wolf, purely because his form has been better over the last 8 games. Facing a struggling Kiel side, Augsburg will be keen to kick on with a win as the club is pursuing second-highest Bundesliga finish to date which has its own financial incentives. Bernardo, VfL Bochum (11M, 3%) It perhaps feels a little risky to be investing in a relegation six-pointer so tread with caution, but Bochum need this win more than Heidenheim. Since Bernardo returned to the backline, Bochum have looked a lot more stable despite recent results. Despite missing 13 games through injury this season, he ranks 15th for aerial duels won this season. Advertisement Franck Honorat, Borussia Monchengladbach (10M, 0%) Gerardo Seoane wrongfully benched Franck Honorat last week in Gladbach's 4-3 defeat to Kiel and was made regret his decision instantly. The Frenchman came on in the 60th-minute to score and assist for a whopping 283 points – Seoane won't want to make the same mistake against a weary Hoffenheim who are missing first-choice keeper Oliver Baumann. Xavi Simons, RB Leipzig (17M, 10%) RB Leipzig have the task of spoiling impending champions Bayern Munich's party this weekend, and who better to lead the charge than Xavi Simons. Prior to the last two games, the Dutch midfielder was averaging 254 points in his last 8 appearances. Don't forget Leipzig need every point too if they are to re-gain their Champions League status! Advertisement Mert Komur, FC Augsburg (5M, 0%) It goes without saying that teammate Alexis Claude-Maurice is the pick of the Augsburg assets this matchday, but Mert Komur is predicted by some reliable sources to start against Kiel. Given that Bundesliga safety is assured, Jess Thorup is expected to offer game time to the 19-year-old talent who is highly rated in Bavaria. Serhou Guirassy, Borussia Dortmund (19M, 12%) In a matchday where Harry Kane is suspended, it just makes sense to move to BVB's top-scorer from Guinea. While he did miss a penalty against Hoffenheim, the 29-year-old recovered to score and assist which brought his score up to 250 points for the afternoon. An out-of-sorts Wolfsburg without captain Maxi Arnold should present a wonderful opportunity to add to his 17 league goals. Advertisement Leroy Sane, FC Bayern (16M, 1%) If you still want to keep your faith in Bayern assets despite Kane's absence, Leroy Sane stands out as their best forward to own. The German international was trigger happy last weekend and bagged a goal in Bayern's 3-0 rout of Mainz. Also, what greater motivation does a Bayern player need than knowing a win wraps up the title for Vincent Kompany's team on Saturday. Samuel Essende, FC Augsburg (10M, 0%) This is undoubtedly more on the punt side of things for players looking to take a gamble entering the final few matchdays. Essende has only managed to score more than 200 points on two occasions this season, but surely the burly Congolese striker will fancy his chances against a Kiel defence that leaked 3 goals last weekend.

Stuttgart missing six centre backs ahead of trip to Holstein Kiel
Stuttgart will be without six central defenders ahead of their match against Holstein Kiel at the weekend. Both Luca Jaquez and Jeff Chabot have been added to the long list of absentees as they have caught an infection. Anrie Chase will also not be available as scan results have confirmed that he has a muscle strain injury in the adductor area after playing in a third-division reserves match against Arminia Bielefield last weekend. He will miss the coming weeks. Finn Jeltsch will be unavailable due to suspension after picking up an accumulation of yellow cards. Dan Axel-Zagadou has been out injured for several months due to a knee injury and Ameen Al-Dakhil is lacking match fitness as he continues his recovery from his muscle injury. As well as these losses, Stuttgart will also be without midfielder Niko Nartey, winger Luca Raimund and forward El-Bilal for Saturday's match. Despite all of these absentees, manager Sebastain Hoeneß is determined to remain positive ahead of the weekend. 'We don't have that many players to choose from, but we'll find solutions,' he said. 'We have options, such as Leo Stergiou and Ramon Hendriks, who tend to play on either side of our defence but have played centrally at their former clubs.' 'Like every game in the Bundesliga, it's a very challenging task. I want us to put in a good performance and perform as a cohesive unit, because Kiel also have plenty at stake. They're doing really well as a promoted side, they won last week and will definitely want to upset us at home.' Stuttgart continue to chase a spot in the top four as they are currently placed in ninth place with 36 points, which is five points behind fourth placed Mainz. GGFN | Matthew Gritton
