FanDuel Salary: $10,500

Unless you're counting on upstart Bournemouth to keep Manchester City in check -- oddsmakers aren't, giving City a 3.25-goal implied total -- you've got to get some exposure to City either in midfield or in a forward spot.

Raheem Sterling ($11,500) and Silva offer a great way to get a piece of the Citizens, though they'll likely be chalk plays.

Silva is in dazzling form this season, notching a goal or an assist in seven of his last eight matches across all competitions. His floor is unrivaled as his FanDuel outputs over his last five EPL matches read: 25.2, 28.6, 29.3, 23.9 and 33.6. He's got three goals and two assists in that span, along with being credited with 12 total chances created.

Sterling can't match Silva's floor, but he's an enticing upside play who has three outings with more than 40 FanDuel points this season, including a two-goal, two-assist outburst three matches ago in which he went for 70.6 FanDuel points.

It is worth mentioning that City played Wednesday in midweek Champions League action, so they could opt to rotate the squad a bit, which would open up slate-changing value options.
