The Bundesliga DFS Breakdown
These are listed in order of what I believe are the top plays, including median projection, floor and upside.
Bundesliga DFS Picks: Forward
Florian Niederlechner (DraftKings $7,700, FanDuel $17)
Florian Niederlechner is involved in 42% of Augsburg’s scoring on the year and Koln is one of the weaker defensive teams in the Bundesliga tied with Augsburg for 14th overall in goals allowed. Niederlechner is not shy to shoot ranking seventh overall in the league in shots.
Florian Niederlechner 2019-2020 stats: 11 goals, 6 assists, 72 shots and 56 fouls drawn.
Sebastian Andersson (DraftKing $8,500, FanDuel $17)
A goal or bust candidate, Sebastian Andersson could prove a solid pivot because his floor is really low and his price should keep ownership low. He ranks in the top-16 in the Bundesliga in shots taken and is involved in 38.2% of Union Berlin’s scoring. If Union Berlin are able to break through Fc Schalke’s middle tier ranked defense, Andersson is in line to be on the end of those goals.
Sebastian Andersson 2019-2020 stats: 12 goals, 1 assists and 57 shots.
Other Options: Mark Uth (DraftKings $12,000, FanDuel $19), Jhon Cordoba (DraftKings $9,300, FanDuel $20)
Bundesliga DFS Picks: Midfield
Florian Kainz (DraftKings $11,000, FanDuel $18)
On a small 2 game slate with low expected goal scoring, Florian Kainz fills the high floor need ranking seventh in the Bundesliga with 69 crosses form open play combined with large share of the set pieces. Kainz also provides upside, currently contributing on 21.7% of Koln’s goals this season. With questions surrounding Mark Uth and Jhon Cordoba match fitness, Kainz’s upside is boosted if they are in and floor remains unchanged with them out of the lineup. On DraftKings the price should not affect his high ownership.
Florian Kainz 2019-2020 stats: 4 goals, 6 assists, 43 shots assisted and 150 crosses.

Philipp Max (DraftKings $9,600, FanDuel $13)
Philipp Max has a questionable designation but is expected to play. His role is similar to Florian Kainz on his team in terms of crosses and set pieces. Max’s price is cheaper than Kainz and he is involved in 30% of FC Augsburg’s total scoring. With 48 crosses from open play, Max sits in the top-30 of the Bundesliga. He is listed at the defender spot on FanDuel and is a top play.
Philipp Max 2019-2020 stats: 7 goals, 5 assists, 48 shots assisted and 177 crosses.
Other Options: Daniel Caligiuri (DraftKings $8,800, FanDuel $14), Ismail Jakobs (DraftKings $6,200, FanDuel $13)
Bundesliga DFS Picks: Defender
Christopher Trimmel (DraftKings $7,900, FanDuel $15)
DraftKings and FanDuel finally agree on a position for Christopher Trimmel. He starts in the backfield but pushes up the ball on the wing and contributes on both sides of the field. I like Trimmel on this slate who holds 20.5% goal involvement for Union Berlin and ranks in the top four of the Bundesliga in total crosses.
Christopher Trimmel 2019-2020 stats: 7 assists, 58 shots assisted and 225 crosses.
Jonjoe Kenny (DraftKings $4,400, FanDuel $12)
Jonjoe Kenny does a little of a everything on the defensive site to scrape up points with the occasional crossing contribution games. He has arguably no upside. He does serve as salary relief on DraftKings. Max is the better play on FanDuel at the same price tier.
