EPL DFS Goalies

Alphonse Areola - DK $4.2K || FD $9

Opponent - at Everton

When analyzing the slate, Alphonse Areola takes the cake for goalie of the slate by a mile. In West Ham United’s last five matches in domestic play, they are the third-worst in Shots Against Per 90 and the fourth-best in Goals Against Per 90. In Areola’s most recent five domestic appearances, he has produced 14 saves, conceded four goals, and recorded two clean sheets.

Everton has improved over their last five fixtures and will be a difficult opponent. As long as Areola can focus early, he can reach value.                                                                    

Others To Consider (CASH/GPP):

• Matz Sels (DK $5.4K || FD $11) at Ipswich Town FC
• José Sá (DK $5.2K || FD $11) at Southampton

EPL DFS Forwards

Anthony Elanga - DK $9.8K || FD $16

Opponent - at Ipswich Town FC

Anthony Elanga is projected to be a highly sought-after forward-eligible player this weekend. The winger is the leading set piece taker for Nottingham Forest and is playing in a prime matchup at Portman Road Stadium.

Ipswich Town FC is a bottom-five club defensively across the board in Per 90 metrics against, excluding Chances Created and Big Chances Created. With a consistent floor and the potential for a ceiling performance, Elanga is the optimal play at forward. In his last five matches in all competitions, he has one assist, five shots, 11 chances created, 42 crosses, 18 corners, and four tackles.

Others To Consider (CASH/GPP): 

• Jack Harrison (DK $6.2K || FD $15) vs. West Ham United
• Jorgen Strand Larsen (DK $3.9K || FD $17) at Southampton

EPL DFS Midfielders

Jean-Ricner Bellegarde - DK $5.3K || FD $14

Opponent - vs. Southampton

The midfielder position is very uncertain this weekend. There are plenty of options. However, the ability for those players to reach value is questionable, and at $9K or more on DraftKings, it is a steep price to pay without consistently guaranteed performances. This leads to Jean-Ricner Bellegarde. The versatile midfielder is projected to play a center attacking-midfielder role in arguably the best matchup on the slate.

Within his most recent five fixtures in all competitions, he has two assists, six shots, nine chances created, eight crosses, nine tackles, and one clearance. With teammate and forward Matheus Cunha suspended and his other teammate Pablo Sarabia not expected to start, Bellegarde could get a chance to take set pieces, further boosting his value.                                                                        

Others To Consider (CASH/GPP): 

• Morgan Gibbs-White (DK $8K || FD $19) at Ipswich Town FC
• Mateus Fernandes (DK $5.3K || FD $15) vs. Wolverhampton

EPL DFS Defenders

Rayan Aït-Nouri - DK $5.4K || FD $13

Opponent - at Southampton

Staying at St. Mary's Stadium, we have fullback Rayan Ait-Nouri. He has four shots, five chances created, 14 crosses, four corners, 18 tackles, four interceptions, and 12 clearances over his last five appearances in all competitions.

With aforementioned teammates Matheus Cunha and Pablo Sarabia suspended and not starting, respectively, Ait-Nouri is next in the pecking order to lead set pieces. He is already playing on the outside wing in a 3-4-2-1 formation with open-play value. Add set pieces into the mix and a prime matchup against Southampton, and he becomes one of the most-owned players on the slate at any position. Keep in mind that Southampton is the worst club across the board without competition in their last five domestic matches,s too.                                                   

Others To Consider (CASH/GPP): 

• Nico Williams (DK $6.4K || FD $13) at Ipswich Town FC
• Adam Webster (DK $3.3K || FD $8) at Manchester City

Corner Takers

• Everton: Jack Harrison/Jesper Lindstrøm
• West Ham United: James Ward-Prowse/Jarrod Bowen
• Ipswich Town FC: Leif Davis
• Nottingham Forest: Anthony Elanga/Morgan Gibbs-White
• Manchester City: Phil Foden/Kevin De Bruyne
• Brighton & Hove Albion: Yankuba Minteh/Pervis Estupiñán
• Southampton: Mateus Fernandes
• Wolverhampton: Rayan Aït-Nouri
