Throughout his UFC career of 15 bouts, Anders averages 61.6 fantasy points per contest. Barriault will enter this fight with the home country behind him, which could be a mountain too steep for Anders to climb.

Looking to get to .500 in the UFC and prevent a three-fight losing streak, Eryk Anders will open up Saturday's main card of action against Kyle Daukaus. The former Alabama University football national champion has proven he can finish fights, with nine of his 14 career wins coming by a finish -- eight of those via knockout/TKO. However, DraftKings sees Anders as a sizeable underdog with a salary of $7,100. Throughout his UFC career (13 fights), he averages 57.5 fantasy points per contest. Though Daukaus is looking to get to .500 as well in the UFC (2-3), Daukaus has proven to be bit better in the Octagon of late.
