Defender - Kyle Walker-Peters, Tottenham ($4,000)

It is likely that Walker-Peters will be highly-owned as he is expected to start at the minimum price for defenders. Tottenham are also the biggest favorite on the slate, and they face a Burnley team that just got their first win in nine matches. With Harry Kane likely to be popular, Walker-Peters offers much-needed salary relief.

There is not a lot of history on Walker-Peters at the game's highest level. He did get a yellow card against Barcelona in the final Champions League group stage match on Wednesday and surely learned a lot playing in such a high-profile fixture. Burnley are not Barcelona. The Clarets allow the most shots in the league and average just 42% of possession. Clearly, it is a better matchup for Walker-Peters to get forward and be more involved in the attack, and he offers solid clean-sheet odds, as well.

With two other Spurs' defenders dealing with injuries, it is time for the young defender to get accustomed to life in the Premier League.

At a little higher price, also consider Chris Lowe ($5,500). He playing in a very advanced role for Huddersfield since returning from injury.
