How to sign up and play Fantasy Bundesliga

The 2019/20 Bundesliga season resumes this weekend after a two-month absence.

There are a full complement of fixtures taking place, with all 18 clubs in the top tier of German football in action over the next three days.

As with any self-respecting league, there is an accompanying Fantasy game to go with it.

Had the coronavirus outbreak not brought English football and Fantasy Premier League to a standstill, then the chances are that many of us wouldn’t have given Fantasy Bundesliga much of a look-in.

However, as we’ve seen over the last couple of months, there are a sizeable number of managers who are desperate for a Fantasy fix of some variety or at least a bit of temporary escapism from the grim reality of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Everything from Faroese football to a 20-year-old computer title has been given the Fantasy treatment during the lockdown and we ourselves have been covering some of those games in detail, including Ragabolly’s Virtual FPL.

HOW TO SIGN UP

To get involved with Fantasy Bundesliga, click here to visit the site homepage and pick your team/register.

Much like the Premier League, the top-flight of German football is about to enter its final quarter of 2019/20.

And like FPL, Fantasy Bundesliga has been running since mid-August, so new entrants at this stage won’t be threatening the overall leaderboard.

However, the free-to-play game allows for mini-leagues to be set up, so those latecomers can still compete with friends and family.

New converts will also be eligible to win the weekly prizes on offer.

PICKING A TEAM

As with FPL, Fantasy Bundesliga managers have to pick a squad of 15 players (two goalkeepers, five defenders, five midfielders and three strikers) and then select a starting XI from that.

The budget is set at 150.0m, with players varying in price from 1.0m to 25.0m and there being regular falls/rises depending on form rather than the weekly number of transactions made.

There are no limits on how many players a Fantasy manager can pick from one particular club, so long as it’s financially viable.

Unlimited transfers are allowed until this Saturday’s deadline and then three permitted between matchdays (the equivalent of Gameweeks) after that point.

Much like in UCL Fantasy, managers can manually substitute out players (if they have blanked, for example) and replace them with those that haven’t yet played.

Rather than captains, Fantasy Bundesliga bosses nominate three ‘star players’ (one each for defence, midfield and attack) that earn them 1.5 times the points they would usually get.

These too are changeable once the matchday has commenced, making this a more hands-on, Sky-type game than FPL.

There is an explanatory thread to be found on Twitter detailing the differences between the Bundesliga and Premier League’s official Fantasy games, which can be read here.

SCORING SYSTEM

Fantasy Bundesliga’s scoring system is almost a mish-mash of FPL, FanTeam and Sky Sports.

Points are awarded for appearances, goals, assists, saves and the rest, although they differ in a number of ways: defenders are awarded more points for assists (five) than midfielders (four) and forwards (three), for instance.

There are stricter punishments for straight red cards, own-goals and missed penalties, while those players converting spot-kicks aren’t handed as many points as if they had scored from open play.

Eschewing the type of Bonus Points System that we see in FPL, additional points are instead awarded for contributions such as duels, shots, key passes, multiple goals and winning strikes.

Players who are on a winning team gain an extra point, with those on the losing side similarly losing a mark.

As well as goalkeepers and defenders being punished for every goal they concede, Fantasy assets whose side lose by three or more goals are deducted an extra two points.

Assists are treated more stringently, meanwhile, and are not awarded to players who are fouled for converted free-kicks or penalties, force an own-goal or see their blocked shot rebound to a teammate.

A full breakdown of the rules can be viewed here.

TIPS

We won’t insult your intelligence by claiming to be hugely well-informed about Fantasy Bundesliga or indeed the league itself, with this author’s knowledge of the German top-flight peaking around the time Paul Lambert was patrolling the midfield at Borussia Dortmund.

Instead, if you’re needing a bit of help, check out the assortment of tweets below from those who are more clued-up:

      A, but United have fixtures against 6 of the best 7 Ds in FPL in the next 8 GW's, including Pool this GW. So I'd be looking at doing Rashford to Ings as soon as possible, then use the MITB to upgrade Traore who fixtures turn poor after NEW this GW.

    vFPL thoughts - part of me feels like it's about time to prepare to bring Salah back. After United away this GW, he plays a Lloris-less Spurs and West Ham who have conceded the 4th most attacks away, both at Anfield.

    Perhaps next GW I'll do Auba + Perez -> DCL + Salah (-4). I can just about afford it.

      His price upsets the balance a bit. Plus there's a few Pool attackers that can eat into his points pizza.If the likes of Neto continues in good form he'd become a better option for me right now.

        True, but it's probably worth a shot with the abundance of cheap strikers available and about to have good fixtures. And with my rank now I may want to play it safer by having Salah.

        Fair enough. It's only virtual FPL so trying a more aggressive style and think aguero is more likely to haul today than TAA. In real FPL I probably wouldn't do it since could easily get stung with an aguero no show
        Will bring TAA back tomorrow on wild card.

    United have a tricky run of fixtures in VFPL that includes games against 6 of the best 7 Ds in the next 8 GW's, including Pool this GW. So I'm thinking of getting rid of one or two of my three United players.

    Pope
    TAA, Alonso, AWB, Saiss
    KDB, Fernandes, Perez
    Auba, Jimenez, Rashford

    Pope, Egan, Hayden, Saka

    0.6m ITB, 2 FT's

    A) Rashford to Ings
    B) ABW to Aurier
    C) Both (leaving me MITB to get Salah and DCL in a couple of GW's time)

          no worries, it's always handy to roll a transfer when ever possible, especially when planning a move like Salah and DCL, because you can never rule out injuries to other players.

        I guess we'll be able to tell if you can still enable TC/BB chips after the GW38 update has been done - safe to try as they can always be undone. I'm pretty sure that there aren't many on this forum who have ever still had chips available after GW38 deadline so we're into uncharted territory here. Although there have been a couple of seasons where I wish I didn't bother with the 'all out attack' one.

    We get 1 more tf, after todays deadline.

    Then i am sitting on 2. If i save those for the FPL to restart, this could happen:

    - They add new gameweeks, and a new tf each week. That would mean i loose 1ft, as i am only allowed 2ft saved.

    So maby smartest to use atleast 1?

    I am just wondering considering the covid19 outbreak. Does this mean that there will be 'no live fpl streams' as it will be played behind closed doors.

    Also should all fpl 'managers' wear PPE masks etc when fpl resumes?
    Should there be a system where is a 14 day quarantine of any new transfers into a team to prevent the risk of infection?

      I used most of mine and forgot once or twice another time I got caught out on the Friday deadline once as well. Had no idea what I was doing though. Brought Robertson in then brought him back out.

      I think many will have just left things alone, and many will not come back to fpl this year because they will have forgotten about it. So I feel that it will be easy for those who are clued in to get a big jump in OR.
      Ruins the game really not a level playing field. Plus many will have wasted a chip just before football stopped.

        I'm similar to this.

        I had all the intentions of slow wildcarding my way to a full decent 15. I barely know what day it is though and forgot most deadlines. I still don't have a full set of 15 players. So if it turned out to be a Massive GW38 my plan for a BB would be foooked.

          I just tried to pick players with something to play for and/or games in hand.
          Arsenal (CL)
          Man United (CL).
          Wolves (Europe)
          Everton (impressing Carlo for next season - playing for places as it is not 'his' team)

          Didn't pick any city attacker wary of rotation as CL the focus. Picked Ederson though as he should start all games plus game in hand.

          Already had two sheff united and one leicester
          Kept TAA and Salah even though they have poor fixtures. Klopp will want the league wrapped up.

          Was tempted to go for Villa but awful fixtures.

      It's something I need to speak to Geoff and the team about. The remaining fixtures have been put on hold so unlike the FPL H2H leagues the fixtures haven't continued with everyone drawing if no hits were taken. This gives us the opportunity to carry on should FPL and indeed the real football resumes.

        Not sure if it's changed, but when I talked to Geoff about it last he was planning on creating a bunch of new gameweeks to take the place of 30-38.

        That means the games will be played over GW 39 to 47, or if there aren't 9 gameweeks to make use of we will split the existing gameweeks into new FFS Gameweeks (How that will work I'm not aware, may just be you have 2 head to head games in one FPL Gameweek)

        There is a HT on it from early March, but that's the last I heard of it.

                Yup go with Reyna
                I'm going with Steffen because Augsburg can be very leaky at the back and Steffen plays very far forward and is usually involved in a high number of shots around the box
                He's actually had a pretty good scoring record this season but isn't always assured of starts. He's a punt as not great fixtures going forward. But no ginczek or weghorst this week means he'll be high up the pitch
