Bundesliga Fantasy Matchday 30 Best Differentials

We look ahead and focus on Bundesliga Fantasy Matchday 30. To prepare for the new round ahead we bring in our Bundesliga Fantasy expert and regular contributor @FPLPlatinum. He picks out some of the best differentials to buy.

Gaining rank can be one of the most challenging things in any fantasy game. But, our experts differentials for Bundesliga Fantasy Matchday 30 can help with exactly that. All of the following differentials have less than 10% ownership, so, lets dive in.

GK – Noah Atubolu – 6.8m, 5% owned, Mainz 05 (A)

Noah Atubolu emerges as a budget-friendly option for MD30, priced generously at just 6.8 million. Following Flekken’s departure to Brentford in the summer of 2023, Atubolu has seamlessly assumed the role of Freiburg’s number one goalkeeper.

In MD29 he bagged 12 points as Freiburg secured a 1-0 away win against Darmstadt. With Freiburg set to face Mainz in MD30, Atubolu presents an attractive option. Despite his impressive display and pivotal role, he remains under the radar with only 5% ownership.

DEF -Keven Schlotterbeck – 3.9m, 3% owned, Wolfsburg (A)

Following Mohamed Simakan’s recommendation in MD29, where he earned 14 points in RB Leipzig’s 3-0 victory over Wolfsburg, Kevin Schlotterbeck is the recommended differential for MD30. Schlotterbeck made contributions at both ends of the pitch in MD29. There he scored an own goal and a late equalizer as Bochum drew 1-1 against Heidenheim.

Priced affordably at just 3.9 million and likely to start, Schlotterbeck presents an attractive option for fantasy managers. With a mere 3% ownership, he remains very low owned among the core player base. This recommendation comes at a crucial juncture in the season, with Bochum winless in their last seven games and just one point behind Mainz, who are in the relegation playoff spot. As Bochum fight to avoid relegation, Schlotterbeck could play a pivotal role in their quest for survival.

MID – Franck Honorat – 13.5m, 2% owned, Hoffenheim (A)

Despite Borussia Mönchengladbach’s 2-1 loss to Dortmund in MD29, Frank Honorat still managed to make an impact, providing an assist and returning 10 points. As Mönchengladbach aim to climb up from 11th place, their upcoming fixture against Hoffenheim in MD30 presents a crucial opportunity.

Honorat, with his potential to influence the game, could be key to Mönchengladbach’s success. With a staggering 98% of players not owning him, he remains a differential option with the likelihood of starting. Don’t overlook Frank Honorat as you finalise your line-up for MD30. He could be the game-changer your team needs.

FWD – Thomas Müller – 13.6m, 2% owned, Union Berlin (A)

With Bayer Leverkusen’s emphatic 5-0 victory over Werder Bremen in MD29, Bayern Munich’s reign of 12 consecutive league titles came to an end, marking a significant shift in the Bundesliga landscape. While Bayern’s focus now shifts to the Champions League, with a crucial second leg against Arsenal looming (the first leg finishing 3-3, and the 2nd leg not been played at the time of writing), their upcoming Bundesliga fixture against Union Berlin in MD30 may see rotation due to shifting priorities.

Despite this, Thomas Müller remains a good pick for fantasy managers, having played the full 90 minutes, scored, and got an impressive 15 points in Bayern’s 2-0 win over Köln in MD29. With just a 2% ownership, Müller may be a differential worth considering for MD30. As Bayern navigate through their remaining Bundesliga fixtures, Müller’s potential for returns could prove invaluable for managers seeking an edge in the final stretch of the season.
