Fantasy Bundesliga returns for 2026-27: Here's what's new!

With the new season on the horizon, Fantasy Bundesliga has made it's grand return for the upcoming 2026-27 campaign - here's what's new:

Updated player value calculation

The way in which a player's value changes are calculated has been adjusted for the new season.

Now, the calculation takes into account how many points a player scores in relation to their expected or previous average performance. 

Playing time is also considered. However, players who do not feature on a matchday will generally retain their existing market value.

A player’s full value development can also be viewed in the ‘Market Value’ section of their Fantasy player profile.

Expanded points catalogue

The aim of the expanded points catalogue is to translate players’ actual performances into Fantasy points even more accurately.

The Fantasy player profile includes a ‘Points Last Season’ value, which has already been recalculated using the new scoring system. 

This allows users to see how performances from the previous campaign would have been assessed under the updated rules.

The player list in the ‘Transfers’ section can also be sorted or filtered by ‘Points Last Season’.

Predicted line-ups available from Tuesday

While not entirely new, players can view the predicted line-ups for every Bundesliga fixture in the Match Centre starting every Tuesday.

The predicted line-ups help users plan their potential transfers, and provide an early indication of which players are likely to start.

Redesigned prize overview

Prizes will be presented in a more visual way, with users able to switch between different tabs - such as Bundesliga Fantasy, matchday winners and Germany League - to view the prizes available in individual leagues.

The prize overview can be accessed through the Fantasy Manager’s information menu.
