4 FanDuel Premier League Players to Avoid in Matchweek 15

Ayoze Perez, Forward, Newcastle United

Salary: $10,500

Perez is tied with Alexandre Lacazette as the seventh-highest priced forward on the slate, and he has averaged 13.41 FanDuel points this season. Perez has scored more than 20 FanDuel points in six of his last seven matches while averaging 19.2 FanDuel points over that span.

The Toffees are the favorite against the Magpies at Goodison Park, per FanDuel Sportsbook, and the match has a 54.5% probability of going under 2.5 goals. Perez has placed one shot on target in back-to-back matches while totaling six chances created over that span, and he has a 20.8% chance of finding the back of the net, per oddsmakers.

Everton have allowed the fifth-fewest goals this season (16), including just six on their home pitch, and have allowed the seventh-fewest chances created (113) and fifth-fewest shots (148) to all positions this season while allowing the eighth-fewest shots (1.64) per 90 minutes to forwards/midfielders/attacking-midfielders over the last five matchweeks.

Perez has been in great form over the last seven matchweeks, contributing on 28.5% of the Magpies’ goals over that span. However, Perez has taken more than one shot in just three matches -- all against clubs currently in the bottom-half of the table -- while creating more than one chance in only four matches this year. The forwards priced above Perez seem to be in more favorable matchups while Chelsea's Alvaro Morata ($9,500) or Olivier Giroud ($9,000), depending on who starts, should have an opportunity for a higher ceiling.
