4 FanDuel Premier League Players to Avoid in Matchweek 10

Kenedy, Midfielder, Newcastle United

Salary: $8,000

Kenedy is tied with seven other players as the seventh-highest priced midfielder on the slate, and he has averaged 10.98 FanDuel points through six matches. Kenedy owns the third-lowest average among midfielders listed at or above $7,500 as he has scored more than 15 FanDuel points just once through eight matches.

The Magpies have a 26.7% win probability, according to Paddy Power, and the match has a 44.4% chance of going over 2.5 goals, while Kenedy's anytime goal-scoring odds are 16.7%.

Despite taking 10 shots over his last two matches, scoring once, Kenedy has placed a shot on target in just three matches this season while not recording a shot in four of his eight matches. The Saints have allowed the sixth-most shots (125) and ninth-most crosses (171) this season but have allowed the fourth-fewest interceptions (79) and third-fewest tackles (129) to all positions this season, and those two defensive statistics will likely lower Kenedy’s floor.

So far this season, Kenedy has shown limited upside when he does not find the back of the net, scoring fewer than 14 FanDuel points in each of his matches in which he doesn't have a game. Given that he doesn't score much and his floor is weakened in this spot, he's not an appealing DFS play.
