EPL Daily Fantasy; DFS Picks And Tips For Matchday 27 - Saturday 2/27

With the Premier League season reaching its final quarter and Draft Kings back in action, we're here to bring you the top picks for each position in this weekend's cash games and GPPs for EPL Daily Fantasy Soccer.

Below you'll find daily fantasy soccer notes and suggestions for goalkeepers, defenders, midfielders and attackers.

Saturday’s Matches

7:45 am EST
West Ham United vs. Sunderland @ Boleyn Ground

10:00 am EST
Leicester City vs. Norwich City @ King Power Stadium
Stoke City vs. Aston Villa @ Brittannia Stadium
Southampton vs. Chelsea @ St. Mary’s Stadium
Watford vs. AFC Bournemouth @ Vicarage Road

12:30 pm EST
West Bromwich Albion vs. Crystal Palace

Premier League DFS Goalkeeper Picks For DraftKings

Top Pick - Jack Butland - Stoke City Salary - $4,100

A matchup versus bottom-dwelling Aston Villa is exactly what Stoke needs to get over its recent skid of poor results (three, 3-nil losses in its last four matches). With a ten-point bonus likely coming with victory - Butland, who leads the league with 86 saves, should register a 15-plus point day.

Value Pick - Ben Foster - West Bromwich Albion Salary - $3,700

Foster has registered three double-digit point outputs in his four starts since replacing Boaz Myhill as West Brom’s starting keeper. This statistic is all the more impressive considering that the Baggies were only victorious in one of these matches. Despite a solid test from Crystal Palace, look for Foster to once again be a solid presence in-between the posts.

Premier League DFS Defense Picks For DraftKings

Top Pick – Christian Fuchs - Leicester City Salary - $3,700

Fuchs is by far and away the top choice on defense for Saturday’s matches. The Austrian fullback is the backbone of the league-leader's rearguard and has scored at least 11 points in six of the past eight matches. Leicester should dispose of bottom-dwelling Norwich quite easily, leaving the weekend just how it started – as the league’s top dogs.

Value Pick - Baba Rahman – Chelsea - Salary - $2,200

Rahman proposes excellent value this weekend. Despite his bare-bones cost, Rahman should earn his fourth consecutive league start for a Chelsea squad currently hitting its groove.

Premier League DFS Midfielder Picks For DraftKings

Top Pick - Dimitri Payet – West Ham United - Salary - $8,000

More than simply a player, Dimitri Payet has transformed into a revelation. If not for an injury that kept the Frenchman off the pitch for two months, Payet would be the clear front-runner for EPL player of the year. Much like how he started the season, the midfielder has been on fire in recent weeks. Since returning to the starting lineup after the New Year, Payet has scored at least 8.5 points in every match and over 30 points on two separate occasions.

Value Pick - Wahbi Khazri - Norwich Salary - $4,200

Khazri has been as hot as the Saharan sands of his home country since claiming his first EPL action four weeks ago. The Tunisian midfielder has put together two consecutive fine performances, including a 27 point showing versus Manchester United that very well may remove Sunderland from the relegation zone.

Premier League DFS Midfielder Picks For DraftKings

Top Pick - Jamie Vardy – Leicester City - Salary - $7,400

After a month long goal slump, this year’s golden-boy has scored four goals in four games. Goals are never guaranteed to continually flow, however, Vardy has had 12 opportunities on net in the aforementioned time frame, making it likely that another one finds twine this weekend.

Value Pick - Emmanuel Emenike – West Ham United - Salary - $3,700

Emenike doesn’t have much of a track record in the league but is the favored option to start up top for the Hammers this weekend with likes of Diafra Sakho, Andy Carrol, and Enner Valencia out with injuries. With Dimitri Payet receiving the bulk of attention from the Black Cats back line, the young Emenike may find himself enough space to score his first Premier League goal.
