DraftKings English Premier League DFS Lineup Picks for Saturday’s Action – Our Top 5 Player Picks for Week 27.

Picks by Lewis @EPLDFS

Saturday 10:00pm ET Kick-Offs

After a two week break which feels like a lifetime the Premier League is finally back. With only 5 games in this Saturdays slates it brings an exciting lineup.

Games:

Norwich City at Leicester

Chelsea at Southampton

Aston Villa at Stoke City

Bournemouth at Watford

Crystal Palace at West Brom

Top 5 Picks

GK – Butland ($4,100) has been on a tough streak in the past 4 games with 10 goals conceded and only 1 win bonus. Butland has a chance to get back into his hot streak with the visit of Aston Villa this weekend. Villa are bottom of the league and the lowest scoring team in the Premier League. Villa should still test Butlands net but they are not playing with any confidence so shouldn’t trouble him.

D- Rahman ($2,200) seemed to have finally forced his way into the Chelsea team. Chelsea’s defense had been plagued with injury’s and Rahman has had two solid games. He scored 9 points against a very tough PSG side during the week and will look to add to that as he tries to impress the Chelsea boss. Also at $2,200 he is a very cheap defensive option.

M – Brady ($5,900) I feel like Norwich will go to Leicester and attack them this weekend. Brady is a great player to have in your team only if he isn’t playing at left back. Brady takes all of Norwich’s set pieces and they love to get a cross in to the big man in the middle, which means guaranteed crossing points. Last time out Brady scored the opener and put in 8 crosses in the draw with West Ham. Brady will be one of the main outlets for Norwich and will be playing with confidence.

F- Vardy ($7,400) will probably be one of the first players in most peoples EPL DFS lineups this weekend. The man who is top of the Premier League goal-scoring table is up against Norwich who can’t seem to win a game and are conceding a lot of goals. Vardy and co could run riot this weekend if Norwich’s defense haven’t sorted out there issues over their two-week break. After only 5 goals in the whole of the 2014/15 season Vardy has been nothing short of sensational this year.

Cheap Option – Walters ($4,100) isn’t one of the most creative forwards but he is one of the hardest working players in the Premier League and he will score points. Up against bottom of the league Villa it is tough to look past Walters who loves to beat people and take plenty of shots. He gained an assist and three shots in his last game against Bournemouth. A great cheap option for this Saturday.

DraftKings English Premier League DFS Lineup Picks for Tuesday’s Action – Our Top 5 Player Picks for Week 25.

Picks by Lewis @EPLDFS

Saturday 10:00pm ET Kick-Offs

Week 24 is in the books with another two wins for our twitter lineups subscribers. Week 25 see’s some clashes at the Top and the Bottom of the League, which makes it wide open for players to score big this weekend. If you would like to see who the favorites are for this weekends match ups take a look at this new sports betting site.

Games:

Norwich City at Aston Villa

Sunderland at Liverpool

West Brom at Newcastle

Everton at Stoke

Crystal Palace at Swansea

Watford at Tottenham

Top 5 Picks

GK – Robles ($3,700) A goalkeeper is very tough to pick this week but after Everton’s and especially Robles mid week performance it is tough to look past him with Howard still out injured. Robles produced 3 saves against Newcastle during the week and will hope to get another clean sheet in their next game at home against Stoke City.

D- Janmaat ($4,400) loves to get forward and get in a cross. Newcastle will be up for this game against West Brom as there has to be a reaction after the way they played against Everton Wednesday night. This will be a game that Newcastle have to win to start their climb up the table.

M – McClean ($5,200) was in form on Tuesday night against Swansea. The West Brom winger made 19…yes 19 crosses in the game which led him to scoring a huge 21 points without a goal. As stated above this weekends game against Newcastle will be wide open and both teams will look to counter attack against each other. McClean’s last four games has seen him score 21, 17, 10 and 26 points in his last 4 games. Expecting big things from him again this weekend.

F- Kane ($8,200) is back in the form we saw him in all of last season. Kane scored twice in Tottenham 3-0 win against Norwich and could have had a couple more goals to his name as he hit the inside of the post twice. Kane also created 2 goals in the win. Kane constantly scores fantasy points even if he isn’t scoring goals unlike most other Premier League strikers. Out of the Premier Leagues top goal scorers Kane has the best shooting accuracy and is on the heels of Vardy in the Top Premier League Goal scorer charts for the season.

ANA

Cheap Option – Naismith ($4,000) was unlucky to not play as much as he did at Everton. However he is now a star in the starting lineup for Norwich City. In the bottom of the league clash Norwich will have to go all out to beat Aston Villa after losing there last 4 Premier League games. Naismith will be their main point of attack with late runs into the box. I have a feeling this game will be a high scoring game with Naismith hopefully in the goals and points.

DraftKings English Premier League DFS Lineup Picks for Wednesday’s Action – Our Top 5 Player Picks for Week 24.

Wednesday English Premier League DFS is a very tough day with only two games on the slate. Chelsea travel to Watford and Newcastle go to Everton.

GK - Courtois ($4,000) gained a clean sheet and win bonus in Chelsea’s 1-0 win over Arsenal. Chelsea should have too much against Watford however Watford’s front two of Deeney and Ighalo should keep Courtois busy and will hopefully gain some saves made points.

D – Coleman ($3,900) is back after a calf injury which has kept him on the sidelines for a month. Coleman started in Everton’s cup game during the week and I expect him to do the same against Newcastle. Coleman loves to get forward and join in with the Everton attacks. He averages 9.1 points per game and up against Newcastle I think this will be higher with the amount of crosses he delivers into the box.

M- Barkley ($6,300) hasn’t been scoring as big in recent weeks but Wednesdays game could see him return to this form. Newcastle play with a wide-open style and this will give Barkley the chance to break on the counter attack. His link up play with Lukaku has been excellent this season and I think these two could cause Newcastle all kinds of problems.

F – Deulofeu ($5,700) is probably my top pick for Tuesday nights games. He has established himself as one of the brightest young wingers in the Premier League right now. The former Barcelona player crossed the ball 14 times last weekend against Swansea and I feel like he will do the same against Newcastle. He plays like an old fashioned winger by getting to the bi-line then getting the cross in. I expect a big game from him.

Cheap Option – Capoue ($3,400) has been one of many surprise packages at Watford this year. The midfielder regularly scores a decent amount of points from defensive midfield. A lot of his points come from interceptions where he sits just in front of the Watford defense. Wednesday should be a busy day for him with Chelsea’s forward line running at him.
