EPL DFS Forwards to Consider
Aleksandar Mitrovic - F, FUL vs BHA (DK - $7,500, FD - $9,500)
Mitrovic has scored three times to open up the season and is clearly Fulham's main attacking outlet. The Serbian international scored twice and provided an additional assist (although really it was a shot that hit the post) in last week's game and is one of the top-performing forwards out there right now. Facing a decent Brighton side, Mitrovic will have the perfect chance to continue his scoring display and do some damage against a lesser defense.
Raul Jimenez - F, WOL vs WHU (DK - $6,300, FD - $7,500)
Since joining the side, Raul Jimenez has played well for Wolves. The big-bodied Mexican forward had a goal disallowed last week and has been a constant threat up top to produce. Now, Wolves will feature against a struggling West Ham side that has conceded nine goals in their first three games. This could be the perfect chance for Jimenez to get on the score sheet, making him an excellent value option and Tournament play in this slate.
EPL DFS Midfielders to Consider
Eden Hazard - M, CHE vs BOU (DK - $10,800, FD - $11,500)
Although he only started his first game of the season last week, Hazard has two assists and a goal to his name already. The Belgian winger is playing like a man possessed and will have the chance to continue his solid performances against a leaky defense in Bournemouth. Hazard is the most expensive player on the slate but should be well worth the cost due to his scoring and assisting upside as well as his penalty taking abilities. Consider Hazard a perfect GPP play this weekend.
Felipe Anderson - M, WHU vs WOL (DK - $6,400, FD - $8,000)
A solid contrarian option for Saturday's slate, Felipe Anderson has looked like one of the few bright spots on his team so far this season. With three straight losses, West Ham is the only team who does not have a point so far this season. They will hope to correct that against a Wolves side that has shown some signs of leakiness in defense but is still a solid outfit. Anderson should be considered an upside play that could pay off if West Ham is able to produce up top this weekend.
EPL DFS Defenders to Consider
Benjamin Mendy - D, MCI vs NEW (DK - $7,300, FD - $8,000)
Despite the huge cost you will have to pay in order to secure the services of the Frenchman, Benjamin Mendy is well worth it, as witnessed by his play so far this season. The attacking fullback has four assists in three games and leads the league in crosses so far this season, making him a perfect investment for fantasy owners and DFS players alike. Against an unspectacular Newcastle who struggled mightily against Chelsea last week, Mendy will have the chance to make an immediate impact once again.
Cedric Soares - D, SOU vs CRY (DK - $4,100, FD - $5,000)
However, if you are going with a contrarian play this weekend, a fantastic Tournament option is fullback Cedric Soares. The Southampton wingback played a big role in the team last year and should continue to do so this season, despite early defensive setbacks that have kept the team from keeping clean sheets. Cedric is a good option regardless and should be considered a solid Tournament play this weekend.
EPL DFS Goalies to Consider
Alex McCarthy - G, SOU vs CRY (DK - $4,300, FD - $5,000)
Crystal Palace, outside of Wilfried Zaha, has looked abysmal this season. Therefore, it is a good shout to put Alex McCarthy in as a goalkeeper in this weekend's slate as a result of his low price (especially on DraftKings), his propensity to have high-save games, and the team's superiority in class over Crystal Palace. McCarthy provides good value for DFS players in both Tournament and GPP options due to his low ownership potential as well as his opponent's weak attacking corps.
Good luck this weekend!
