Bundesliga Fantasy Scout: Five hidden gems for Matchday 19

Two thirds of all teams have Harry Kane in them. Indeed, not starring the Bayern Munich talisman when he's fit to play is almost a guarantee to lose rank.

So, instead of pointing out the well-known points machines, we're here to shine the spotlight on those hidden gems that could help you climb up the table...

Janis Blaswich (Leverkusen), 6.11m

Janis Blaswich replaced Mark Flekken in Bayer Leverkusen’s 1-0 loss at Hoffenheim last Saturday, securing a second-half shut-out to help himself to 112 Fantasy points. Die Werkself have since confirmed that Flekken’s knee injury will keep him out until March, giving Blaswich an extended run in the team. A league-leading clean sheet percentage of 45.5% with Red Bull Salzburg last season suggests he’ll be good for it.

Arnaud Kalimuendo (Frankfurt), 10.49m

Eintracht Frankfurt head into Saturday’s game at home to Hoffenheim with Dennis Schmitt in interim charge following Dino Toppmöller’s dismissal, but the former reserve team coach is unlikely to change much, and in Arnaud Kalimuendo’s case, he doesn’t have to. The Frenchman has hit the ground running since signing on loan from Nottingham Forest, with a goal and an assist from his three games so far. With a 2% ownership, he could be a fine differential.
