It's an intriguing five-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 34 (on April 14th, 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
Jamie Vardy - F, LEI vs BUR (DK - $7,700, FD - $10,000)
Vardy has scored a goal in his last three games and has sixteen on the season; in a week devoid of true difference makers who won't be subject to rotation, Vardy becomes an elite option despite facing a stout Burnley defense. Vardy should be considered a top pick in most formats due to his prowess for goal, and he becomes a very nice value pick on DraftKings despite his recent form due to his deflated price. Consider Vardy regardless of the contest format or site, as he should continue his run of good form this Saturday.
Danny Ings - F, LIV vs BOU (DK - $7,200, FD - $8,000)
After starting his first game for Liverpool last weekend against Everton, Danny Ings could start again on Saturday as manager Jurgen Klopp looks to rotate his side with upcoming Champions League fixtures in mind. Ings is a risky play, as it is likely that Roberto Firmino will start and Ings will be relegated to the bench. However, in Tournament formats, Ings is a fantastic contrarian play who could make an impact against Bournemouth this weekend.
EPL DFS Midfielders to Consider
Riyad Mahrez - M, LEI vs BUR (DK - $9,200, FD - $9,500)
Continuing with the Leicester theme, Riyad Mahrez should be considered an elite option at the position this weekend as the difference maker in the midfield looks to add to his goals/assists tally this weekend after what has been quite an up-and-down season for him. With ten goals and seven assists on the year, Mahrez will have high ownership totals due to the lack of top level talent this weekend and should definitely be owned in the majority of GPP lineups.
Luka Milivojevic - M, CRY vs BHA (DK - $5,800, FD - $9,000)
Milivojevic has been on fire in recent weeks, with three goals in his last three games and ten goals on the season. Although betting on him to score four weeks in a row is a big ask, the Serbian midfielder might just well do it as Palace will look to him to lead the team as it fights to stay in the Premier League. Milivojevic is a risky play, however, as outside of goals he has offered little in the way of fantasy points; start him at your own risk.
EPL DFS Defenders to Consider
Seamus Coleman - D, EVE vs SWA (DK - $4,400, FD - $6,500)
In what is truly a poor week for defensive talent in daily fantasy contests, one source of points could be Seamus Coleman, the Everton fullback who has been injured for the majority of the season. Since coming back into the lineup, Coleman has just one assist. However, in GPP formats, the Everton fullback has nice value as the team takes on a Swansea unit that could be exploited by Everton's fullbacks.
Andrew Robertson - D, LIV vs BOU (DK - $5,800, FD - $7,000)
With four assists on the season, Robertson has been a constant threat down the left hand side of the Liverpool attack. The left back has been subject to rotation, however, and could miss games in the upcoming weeks due to Liverpool's involvement in the Champions League. Therefore, starting Robertson is definitely a risk, but one that could pay off as Liverpool will likely score quite a few against a Bournemouth side that they are expected to beat.
EPL DFS Goalies to Consider
Wayne Hennessey - G, CRY vs BHA (DK - $5,300, FD - $4,500)
Once again, top options at the position are lacking in this five game slate. Regardless, with an easy matchup on paper for Hennessey and a must win game for Palace, it looks like the goalkeeper for the Eagles could be a decent play to get a clean sheet this weekend. He should have more ownership percentages in GPP games rather than Tournament plays, but he will likely be heavily owned and should be in the majority of your lineups as an option between the sticks.
Good luck this weekend!
