Martin Konstantinov's EPL DFS lineup picks on FanDuel and DraftKings for Matchday 26. The top daily fantasy soccer players and sleepers for the Premier League.
It's an intriguing six-game slate for DFS Premier League soccer this weekend on FanDuel and DraftKings. Below we bring you seven players you should consider as EPL DFS lineup picks for Matchday 26 (on February 3rd, 2018).
Not all are top-tier options, as there is a range of DFS value picks, sleepers and high-risk players mixed in.
Consider all of these EPL players for your DFS lineups this weekend; however, at the end of the day, it is always your decision. Good luck, RotoBallers.
EPL DFS Forwards to Consider
Callum Wilson - F, BOU vs STK (DK - $6,400, FD - $9,000)
Potentially a steal for DraftKings contests, Callum Wilson comes in at a value price after playing fantastically against Chelsea in the midweek game. With a decent matchup against an underwhelming Stoke City defense, Wilson might be able to continue his rich vein of form by performing at a similar level to recent weeks. Wilson should be considered a decent option who is available at a very affordable price on DraftKings this week.
Jordan Ayew - F, SWA vs LEI (DK - $5,500, FD - $8,000)
The young Swansea striker has been in fine form recently, with four goals in his last eight games for a team that is turning around their season. Ayew has been hailed as the centerpiece of this team, with his constant work ethic and drive contributing to the majority of the attacking chances for his team. With a decent price for the week, Ayew should be considered a decent GPP play who will probably have decent ownership levels.
EPL DFS Midfielders to Consider
Jesse Lingard - M, MU vs HUD (DK - $8,300, FD - $9,o00)
With seven goals and four assists on the season, Lingard has been a productive force for Manchester United in his breakout campaign. Averaging just over eight points a game on DraftKings, Lingard should be considered a solid play at the position in a game where the prices of the elite options might not make balanced roster construction a viable possibility. Regardless, Lingard should play solid minutes this weekend and could find the back of the net against a Huddersfield defense that has been rather porous as of late.
Henrikh Mkhitaryan - M, ARS vs EVE (DK - $7,700, FD - $8,000)
Mkhitaryan started on the bench in the midweek game for Arsenal but is slated to start this weekend against Everton. While he does carry some risk as he is a new signing who has not found his exact place in the squad just yet, being reunited with former Borussia Dortmund teammate Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang should help him boost his season and return to the form he experienced while in the Bundesliga. While he is not the cheapest midfielder, the Armenian veteran is a very solid option this week with week-winning potential, albeit with some substantial risk as well.
EPL DFS Defenders to Consider
Nacho Monreal - D, ARS vs EVE (DK - $5,700, FD - $7,000)
The Arsenal defender has had a terrific few weeks, with several decent performances (except for his team's loss to Swansea) in the last month. With four goals on the season, Monreal might not have the highest potential points totals on DraftKings, but he should be considered a very solid option on FanDuel for the weekend. Keep him in your lineup considerations for most formats this weekend, as Arsenal have a relatively easy matchup against Everton.
Harry Maguire - D, LEI vs SWA (DK - $4,300, FD - $6,500)
Another option for FanDuel lineups, Maguire is a bit of a gamble considering Swansea's recent form but could provide a decent points total if Leicester are able to keep a cleansheet. Although you should probably steer clear of Leicester center backs if you are on DraftKings lineups this weekend, Maguire is a decent contrarian play if you believe that he will be able to find the back of the net on a corner or free kick.
EPL DFS Goalies to Consider
Asmir Begovic - G, BOU vs STK (DK - $5,100, FD - $5,000)
Although Bournemouth's first clean sheet in eleven matches was this past gameweek against Chelsea, Begovic has played superbly in recent weeks and could continue with another clean sheet against a lesser team in Stoke City. Although there are better options out there this week, at his price, the Bournemouth goalkeeper should be considered a decent option if you are strapped for cash and need to find relative value at the goalkeeper position.
