4 FanDuel Premier League Value Plays for Matchweek 17
Forward - Joshua King, Bournemouth ($7,500)
Since the Watford-Bournemouth clash seems unlikely to end in a clean sheet, targeting one of Bournemouth's best attackers over the last two seasons makes sense.
King has been relatively quiet of late, but he has shown he is capable of an attacking outburst. He is an efficient striker, notching five goals in 13 appearances while averaging a shade fewer than two shots per match. He has also added an assist while averaging nearly two successful dribbles per match.
King is Bournemouth's second-leading goal scorer, but top-scorer Callum Wilson ($9,500) is doubtful with a hamstring injury. King will need to pick up the slack and provide an outlet for Bournemouth. He can also win 50-50 balls as he is second on the team in aerial duels won per match. With Wilson on the shelf, King must be active for the Cherries.
