4 FanDuel Premier League Value Plays for Matchweek 18

Defender - Christian Fuchs, Leicester City ($4,000)

Fuchs has spent most of the season on the bench. However, when he gets a chance to play, he automatically has value from his delivery on free kicks. He had back-to-back four-assist seasons when he was a regular starter for Leicester in his first two seasons in the Premier League.

Fuchs registered two key passes last week against Crystal Palace in his first start of the year. He had two crosses and three long balls. Those can all turn into chances created and assists. It was an encouraging showing for the one-time regular. Fuchs replicated the two key passes in domestic cup play against Manchester City on Tuesday.

Fuchs and Leicester will likely be more on the back foot this week against Chelsea. Fuchs did register five defensive actions last week despite Crystal Palace having only 43% of the possession, so there's a decent floor here. Fuchs had eight defensive actions against Manchester City on Tuesday, which may be a better indication of his contribution versus Chelsea. City held 66% of possession on Tuesday. His defensive contributions alone would have been worth more than 10 FanDuel points, which is a great floor for someone that will only cost $4,000.
