If players have to choose between any one item, it should be Thomas Muller. Despite being more expensive to obtain (in terms of fodder value), the Muller item is significantly better in terms of in-game stats, playstyles, and roles. Chances for Bayern Munich to win the game is also higher on paper, which will improve the item with a +2 boost.
Both items are rated at 91, but the card that belongs to the winning side will have a +2 overall in the near future. This boost will be associated with an increase in key stats. Ultimately, players should also consider the needs of their respective squads when choosing between the two challenges. Both cards can also become eligible for upgrades via evolutions in the future, so that's something worth watching out for.
