EPL DFS Goalies

Caoimhín Kelleher - DK $4.2K || FD $9

Opponent - at Crystal Palace

Value will not be easy to come by at the goalkeeper position this weekend, and Caoimihín Kelleher is one of the only ‘viable’ options. In his last five domestic starts, he has made 14 saves, conceded seven goals, and recorded one clean sheet.

Crystal Palace offers the best value in terms of Shots Per Goal Per 90. They are a top-five club in Shots Per 90, but a bottom-ten club in Goals Per 90. Furthermore, Brentford, from a Per 90 against viewpoint, is the fifth-worst in Shots, and they sit just outside the bottom-ten in Goals. At Kelleher’s salary, if he holds strong, he could break the slate.                                                                            

Others To Consider (CASH/GPP):

• Bart Verbruggen (DK $5.4K || FD $12) vs. Leeds United
• Senne Lammens (DK $5.1K || FD $11) at Nottingham Forest

EPL DFS Forwards

Bukayo Saka - DK $9.7K || FD $22

Opponent - at Burnley FC

Bukayo Saka does not offer the top goal-scoring odds on the slate this weekend, but his open-play and set piece value in a prime matchup make him a ‘LOCK’ in the majority of contests. Throughout Saka’s last five appearances in all competitions–four starts–he has accumulated two goals, 14 shots, nine chances created, 23 crosses, 13 corners, seven tackles, four interceptions, and two clearances.

Burnley FC are in the bottom five in Chances Created Against Per 90, In-the-Box Shots Against Per 90, In-the-Box Goals Against Per 90, and Penalty Area in their last five domestic fixtures. They are also the worst in Shots Against Per 90. Despite being the highest-salaried forward on the slate, Saka’s role with the Gunners and the premium matchup will help him maintain value.            

Others To Consider (CASH/GPP): 

• Yankuba Minteh (DK $8.6K || FD $17) vs. Leeds United
• Benjamin Šeško (DK $6.8K || FD $17) at Nottingham Forest

EPL DFS Midfielders

Bryan Mbeumo - DK $9.8K || FD $22

Opponent - at Nottingham Forest

Bryan Mbeumo is becoming increasingly critical to Manchester United’s attack each week. In his last five domestic fixtures, he has a 36% goal contribution after opening the first four matchweeks with a 20% goal contribution. Furthermore, in those five fixtures, he has produced three goals, one assist, 11 shots, seven chances created, 21 crosses, six corners, two tackles, one interception, and one block.

 As expected, last week Nottingham Forest fell to AFC Bournemouth 2-0, proving that the manager was not the problem. This is a core issue for the Tricky Trees and one that will get exploited again from the Red Devils’ in-form attack. With a growing role on set pieces and his dynamic ability on and off the ball, Mbeumo will have many chances to exceed value.                                                                

Others To Consider (CASH/GPP): 

• Mikkel Damsgaard (DK $7.8K || FD $19) at Crystal Palace
• Yasin Ayari (DK $5.9K || FD $16) vs. Leeds United

EPL DFS Defenders

Defenders

Jurriën Timber - DK $6K || FD $14

Opponent - at Burnley FC

Defense is where lineups will differentiate. There could have been many defenders that were highlighted for this weekend, but Jurriën Timber’s matchup at Turf Moor is one of the best on the slate. Burnley FC, in their last five domestic fixtures, from a Per 90 viewpoint, is the worst club in Shots, Chances Created, and In-the-Box Shots. Furthermore, they are bottom-five in Big Chances Created and Penalty Area Offense.

Arsenal FC is the best club over the last five domestic fixtures in Goals Against Per 90, Shots Against Per 90, In-the-Box Shots Against Per 90, and Penalty Area Defense. This only highlights the matchup itself. Timber in his last five fixtures in all competitions–four starts–has accumulated three shots, six chances created, four crosses, one corner, 13 tackles, two interceptions, and seven clearances. The bulk of his production has come from his own third of the pitch, but with less defensive work expected, he can join the attack more in what will be an Arsenal-heavy possession match.                                                              

Others To Consider (CASH/GPP): 

• Diego Dalot (DK $4.8K || FD $12) at Nottingham Forest
• Kenny Tete (DK $4.9K || FD $12) vs. Wolverhampton
