Premier League DFS Goalkeeper Picks For DraftKings

David De Gea – Manchester United Salary - $4,400

Occupying the space between the posts for the league’s best defense this weekend, once again, will be David de Gea. The Spanish keeper is averaging 9.3 points per game, which is the third highest among Saturday’s goalie options. De Gea’s output prospect take added value considering his opponent - Watford - have only scored 11 goals so far this season, the second lowest total amongst EPL teams.

Tim Howard - Everton Salary - $3,900

Howard’s 46 saves are the third highest total in the league, second highest among goalkeepers active on Saturday. With this in mind, Howard would be a solid pick against a side with even modest talent. Fortunately for Howard, Everton will take on the flaccid attack of Aston Villa. The Villans have put just 31 shots on target this season, by far the lowest total in the EPL.

Premier League DFS Defense Picks For DraftKings

Seamus Coleman - Everton - Salary - $4,200

While John Stones may be the Everton defender getting all the headlines, Seamus Coleman has been one of fantasy’s most dynamic rear guardsmen. Coleman has repeatedly shown confidence to drift up field in order to assist on the offensive attack. and the Irishman's 3.1 crosses per game are top-10 amongst defenders. His prowess for aerial balls may be crucial for the Toffee attack, which has heavily relied on the leaping ability of Romelu Lukaku.

Virgil Van Dijk - Southampton - Salary - $2,800

Van Dijk has quietly emerged as the Saints’ top defender in recent weeks. His inclusion in the lineup has surely been key to Southampton’s consecutive clean sheet victories. Despite the knock he received this week while training with the Dutch National Team, Van Dijk will be fit to face Stoke on Saturday.

Simon Francis - Bournemouth - Salary - $2,800

Francis had a defender’s dream week in Matchday 11. In a 0-1 loss to Newcastle, the fullback sent in 18 (yes 18) crosses and ended the match with 28 total points. If Francis is once again allowed to roam forward and deliver his patented crosses, his output will certainly outweigh his modest $2,800 price.

Premier League DFS Midfielder Picks For DraftKings

Riyad Mahrez – Leicester City - Salary - $7,800

Mahrez has been one of fantasy soccer’s most consistent performers this season, averaging 22 points per game, and scoring in the single digits just once. With Jamie Vardy nabbing the headlines with his scoring streak, Mahrez’s importance to the Fox’s attack has been marginalized. Mahrez, however, has seven goals of his own and five assists, the league's third highest output in each respective category.

Jesse Lingard - Manchester United Salary - $3,200

Lingard will get his second consecutive start at forward this week while Anthony Martial recovers from injury and Wayne Ronney nurses an illness. Lingard looked incredibly poised, making his first career start in Week 11 and opening the scoring against West Brom with a gorgeous 18-yard strike. The youngster will surely be playing striker this week, with the two aforementioned players sitting out, making his listing as a midfielder even more valuable, albeit somewhat confusing.

Premier League DFS Forward Picks For DraftKings

Jamie Vardy – Leicester City - Salary - $7,600

Not much needs to be said regarding this one. Vardy has scored in nine consecutive games and is on the verge of setting a Premier League scoring record this week. Continue to put your money on this thoroughbred until he stops scoring. Never be the fantasy player that bets against the streak, that is unless you want to spend all of Saturday evening kicking yourself for doubting him.

Ayoze Perez – Newcastle United - Salary - $5,300

If Newcastle wish to continue to work their way to the top half of the table, they will do so by unleashing Perez. The 22-year old has been catching the eyes of many a decision maker lately, distributing intelligent passes and making breakneck runs. Perez has registered double digit outputs in four of his last five matches, relying primarily on his precise crosses from the flank for his inflated totals.
