Twitter is full of the most experienced fantasy football players around. Those managers can be some of the best people to look to when trying to gain clarity when making decisions within our teams. Checking out the Bundesliga Fantasy Matchday 9 expert picks and team reveal can help hugely for the round ahead.

Top picks – Defenders – Jeremie Frimpong (16.1m / 59% TSB / SCF)

What more can we say about Jeremie Frimpong that hasn’t been widely acknowledged? The dynamic wingback is in superb form, consistently delivering strong performances for Bayer Leverkusen under the leadership of Xabi Alonso.

Frimpong accumulated an impressive total of 22 points last MD, and maintains an average of 14 points per game. Notably, Frimpong excels particularly in home matches, in contrast to Grimaldo, who maintains a high average of nearly 19 points in away games. Frimpong is a vital asset for 59% of the fantasy football community. Not having him in your team could harm your ranking, given his potential to sustain his outstanding form in upcoming home fixtures against Freiburg.

Alphonso Davies (15.9m / 46% TSB / SVD)

While it’s true that Davies had a disappointing performance in MD8, with only two points, which led many managers to consider selling him, he remains a strong choice for MD9. In the upcoming match, Bayern face Darmstadt in Munich, and they are widely expected to secure a comfortable victory.

While some managers might be considering replacing Davies with other players, it’s worth noting that the Canadian has demonstrated his ability to deliver a strong performance, especially against teams like Darmstadt.

Benjamin Henrichs (12m / 13% TSB / KOE)

RB Leipzig boasts a wealth of quality defensive options this season. Benjamin Henrichs stands out among them. He showcased his prowess by providing an assist, earning him nine points in Matchday 8 and maintaining an impressive average of 10 points per game.

Surprisingly, Henrichs is currently featured in only 13% of fantasy teams, primarily due to the dominance of the existing top-performing defenders. As RB Leipzig face Koln in the upcoming match, it’s worth considering Henrichs for your fantasy team. I anticipate a strong performance from him.

Midfielders – Jonas Hofmann (17m / 45% TSB / SCF)

Jonas Hoffmann, formerly of Borussia Mönchengladbach and currently standing as the second-highest point scorer among midfielders in the ongoing 2022/2023 season, remains a pillar of reliability for fantasy football managers. While he had a disappointing performance in his recent game against Wolfsburg, by getting a blank and a yellow card booking, his track record from previous matches is more than sufficient to instill confidence in his capabilities.

As one of the standout midfielders in this season’s fantasy football landscape, Hoffmann’s consistency and potential to deliver significant points are undeniable. Despite the minor setback in his last game, his overall form suggests that he is poised to bounce back and excel in Matchday 9 against Freiburg. Fantasy managers would be wise to maintain their faith in Hoffmann. He remains a strong contender for accumulating valuable points and bolstering their fantasy football squads.

Julian Brandt (17m / 36% TSB / SGE)

Julian Brandt has emerged as the standout performer of this season. He has accumulated an impressive 100 fantasy points thus far. His consistency and impactful displays on the pitch have been a delight for his owners. What’s truly astonishing, however, is that his ownership remains relatively low at just 36%, despite his point scores.

With his exceptional form and the potential to deliver substantial returns, Brandt is undoubtedly a stellar choice for your fantasy team. As Borussia Dortmund prepares for their Matchday 9 clash against Frankfurt, Brandt’s inclusion can be a game-changer. Don’t miss the opportunity to capitalize on Brandt’s exceptional performance and secure him for your team.

Chris Führich (9.6m / 41% TSB / TSG)

Führich’s current price in the fantasy football market has dropped from 10.7 million to an enticing 9.6 million. This makes him an attractive prospect for potential team managers. The reduction in his price tag is likely to lure more managers, and increase his ownership percentage. Buying Führich for your team not only serves as a smart budgetary move but also increases your potential for accumulating fantasy points. His consistent performance on the pitch is evident as he maintains an impressive average of 11 points per game, highlighting his ability to make a significant impact in the realm of fantasy football. Führich is poised for an upcoming match at home against Hoffenheim.

This is an exciting opportunity for fantasy managers, as home fixtures often provide players with a favorable environment to shine. It’s an occasion where Führich’s skills and capabilities can potentially lead to an excellent point haul for your fantasy team. So, investing in him now could prove to be a strategic move that reaps rewards not only for your team’s budget but also in terms of fantasy points earned.

Forwards – Victor Boniface (14.4m / 64% TSB / SCF)

The Nigerian international has been nothing short of outstanding in the current season. With an impressive total of 124 points, he stands second in the highest scoring forwards. This season, he has consistently proven himself to be a pivotal fantasy asset. Looking ahead, Boniface is gearing up for an upcoming clash against Freiburg. There he aims to sustain his remarkable average of 16 points per game.

His recent form suggests that he is more than capable of achieving this goal. In his last outing, he notched a 12 points, further cementing his reputation as a top fantasy pick. As Matchday 9 approaches, fantasy managers can expect Boniface to maintain his high standard of play and continue to score valuable points for their teams.

Harry Kane (17.1m / 71% TSB / SVD)

Harry Kane holds the distinction of being the most widely owned forward. An astounding 71% managers are opting for him. The Bayern Munich striker has consistently delivered outstanding performances, maintaining an impressive average of 14 points per game.

What makes Kane an even more enticing prospect for fantasy managers is the upcoming fixture in Matchday 9. He’s set to play at home against Darmstadt. This is a matchup that presents an excellent opportunity for him to further bolster his point tally. With his skill and scoring ability, Kane is undoubtedly a key player in the fantasy game. His high ownership reflects the trust that managers have in his capability to deliver consistent and valuable points.

Leroy Sané (16.6m / 21% TSB / SVD)

Leroy Sané presents a unique and intriguing option for Matchday 9. While the majority of fantasy football managers may have opted for Guirassy, Kane, and Boniface as their front three, a curveball has been thrown into the mix with Guirassy sidelined due to injury. This setback opens up a valuable opportunity for Sané to step into the limelight and shine. He boasts a respectable tally of 101 total points, supported by a consistent average of 11 points per game. His ability to contribute both in terms of goals and assists adds versatility to any fantasy team.

Now, with the door of opportunity swinging open, Sané is well-positioned to prove his worth and make an impact in Matchday 9. Fantasy managers should seriously consider his inclusion in their squads, as he has the potential to provide a different yet rewarding addition to their front 3 – especially in the absence of Guirassy.
