6/6 Bundesliga Slate

We are down to five Bundesliga match weeks with Champions League spots and relegation yet to be decided. Despite there only being four games on DraftKings and five on FanDuel, this is easily the most loaded slate yet.

RB Leipzig will be the chalk on both sites, as they are facing an awful Paderborn side that resides at the bottom of the Bundesliga table. However, Bayern Munich provides us with an interesting tournament pivot. On Fanduel, we have even more high end options, such as those from Dortmund, who will be playing in the late game, which is included. When you also factor in the number of expensive but talented players on this slate not on the three aforementioned mentioned teams, the possibilities are endless.

Overall, it strikes me as a slate to MME on both sites. There are a lot of high end options and you can’t roster every one. This should lead to lower ownership than usual on a lot of the studs that we have been accustomed to seeing much higher owned.

6/6 Bundesliga Best Bets

Bayern Munich (-225) at Bayer Leverkusen (+475) – Under 3.5 Goals (-120) – 7:30 AM ET – Saturday 6/6 – *BAYERN MUNICH*

SC Paderborn (+1500) at RB Leipzig (-700) – Under 3.5 Goals (-105) – 7:30 AM ET – Saturday 6/6 – *RB LEIPZIG*

The Betting Game Plan

I had a chance to watch SC Paderborn when they got blown up by Dortmund 6-1 last Saturday. Let me sum up my experience by saying that it wasn’t hard for me to see why Leipzig are -700 favorites this week. I would add them to begin any parlay.

From there I would turn to Bayern Munich. They should be able to employ the “Jordan Rules” on 19 year old Bayer Leverkusen star Kai Havertz. Given how close they are to clinching the Bundesliga title, it would be surprising to see Bayern drop this one. Beyond that if adding on, I would probably turn to either Gladbach who plays one day before on Friday, or Dortmund. I would suggest running a parlay consisting of 2-4 of the aforementioned options.

5/30 Bundesliga Slate

There are only six more Bundesliga match weeks remaining with EPL on the horizon, beginning June 17th. As for this weekend, the DraftKings slate and FanDuel slate could not be more opposite. The inclusion of the late game on FanDuel, where Bayern Munich is a -1800 favorite, changes the entire dynamic on that site. However on DraftKings, Filip Kostic will be popular as the player with the highest floor. It comes at a steep price and his matchup with Wolfsburg is certainly not ideal.

5/30 Bundesliga Best Bets

Fortuna Dusseldorf (+2500) at Bayern Munich (-1800) – Over 4 Goals (-125) – 12:30 PM ET – Saturday 5/30 – *BAYERN MUNICH*

DraftKings | FanDuel

Dortmund (-310) at SC Paderborn (+750) – Under 3.5 Goals (-110) – 12:00 PM ET – Sunday 5/31 – *DORTMUND*

DraftKings | FanDuel

The Betting Game Plan

Sometimes the best rule is to just keep things simple. Bayern Munich is a just a topping on any other bet as the return only serves as a slight odds boost on a parlay. However, I think we can pair them with Dortmund and get a nice little parlay that also feels fairly safe. Both these teams are head and shoulders above the pack in the Bundesliga.

Outside of the big two, the only other thing I would want to look at potentially adding on to a parlay is a moneyline bet on either Wolfsburg aka D-Generation X or Leipzig.

5/27 Bundesliga Slate

We are down to the final day of this match week with only six more remaining, including this weekend. For the first time since Bundesliga DFS appeared, we finally have none of the top five teams on the DraftKings main slate. However, on FanDuel we do have Leipzig so they are the top team to stack up “as well as the chalk” over there.

5/27 Bundesliga Best Bets

Hertha Berlin (+750) at Leipzig (-315) – Under 3.5 Goals (-125) – 12:30 PM ET – Wednesday 5/27 – *LEIPZIG*

DraftKings | FanDuel

Schalke 04 (+170) at Dusseldorf (+160) – Under 2.5 Goals (-120) – 2:30 PM ET – Wednesday 5/27 – *UNDER 2.5 GOALS*

DraftKings | FanDuel

The Betting Gameplan

Leipzig crushed Mainz last time out, with a 5-0 win which could’ve easily been 11-0. We don’t need them to do quite that much, just take care of business. The money line on Leipzig is my favorite bet if only placing one. Beyond that I don’t mind taking the under on the Schalke 04/Dusseldorf game.

5/26 Bundesliga Tuesday Slates – Showdown and Main

Showdown

There are seven match weeks remaining including this Tuesday/Wednesday edition. In what is fairly anti-climatic, we have the biggest game of the season, Der Klassiker between Dortmund and Bayern Munich, before the main slate. The contests for the single game as nearly as big as for main due to the game’s importance. These are the top two teams now and historically in Germany. A Bayern Munich win would likely seal an eight straight title for them.

Bayern Munich comes in a -110 favorite with Dortmund a +250 underdog. Dortmund has looked impressive as of late and I expect Jadon Sancho to be back in the lineup. However, just as they struggled against PSG in their Champion’s League exit, I think that the skill and experience of Bayern will be a lot for them to contend with. Because you can’t roster every goal scorer, on DraftKings I will begin with Joshua Kimmich and build out from there.

Main

The main slate is three games without quite as much star power as the showdown. We do have two of the top five teams in Gladbach and Bayer Leverkusen, as slate high -140 favorites each. We have Frieburg hosting that awful Frankfurt team. There are not many high dollar players to pay up for so I would expect Kai Havertz to be the mega chalk. Havertz is coming off consecutive braces “two goal games” and without many alternatives, in a cash game, you just eat it. In a tournament, I think you can pivot to be different. Furthermore, stacking is definitely also in play as we have seen team stacks taking down tournaments in the Bundesliga more often than EPL due to the high totals.

5/26 Bundesliga Site Specific Strategy

DraftKings

For DraftKings showdown I think there’s a lot of value in the mid range. Stick to set piece taker Joshua Kimmich, the two Dortmund wing backs Hakimi, Guerriero, Thorgan Hazard for some set pieces on the opposite side. At minimum, that’s how I would approach cash. In a tournament you can apply that or try to pick a side and stack up.

For the DraftKings main slate you’re picking studs out of Kai Havertz, Filip Kostic, and Alassane Plea. Christian Gunter’s price went up from last week but he is still the strongest defender. Other than that, I would remain balanced. Without too many pay ups, there is no need to be slumming it with sub 4k center backs and the like. If you do decide to mess with Werder Bremen, remember Leo Bittencourt is getting all the set pieces now, rendering Milot Rashica’s value down a ton.

FanDuel

On Fanduel, it’s a joke that Robert Lewandowski and Thomas Muller are so relatively affordable. Joshua Kimmich makes for a $9 value play. Just punt defender and stack up. There is no need for the balanced approach necessary on the DraftKings slate.

For Fanduel main slate, Filip Kostic is only $15, Vicenzo Grifo is $15, Jonas Hoffman $14, Karim Bellarabi $14, and if Leon Bailey starts, he’s $10. Other than Havertz and Plea there is nowhere to spend up. I will probably still punt defense and just stack up the favorites or come up with some all star attack combinations.

5/26 Bundesliga Best Bets

Bayern Munich (-115) at Dortmund (+270) – Under 3.5 Goals (-115) – 12:30 PM ET – Tuesday 5/26 – *BAYERN MUNICH*

The Betting Gameplan

Most people will be rooting for Dortmund cause they love underdog stories. However, the smart money is on Bayern Munich to continue their Bundesliga dominance. Meanwhile, Gladbach is a much better team than Werder Bremen. WB is coming off a huge win to help them try to avoid relegation, but should get smashed here.
