Eden Hazard, Midfielder, Chelsea

FanDuel Price: $11,500

Manchester City offer a plethora of superb midfield options, and that could include star playmaker Kevin De Bruyne ($9,000), who made his return from injury during midweek league cup play.

But if you've got exposure to City in a forward spot, you can get access to Chelsea, another big favorite, here with Hazard, their main man. Chelsea are a 1.5-goal home favorite against Leicester, and Hazard was used as a sub midweek (scoring the winning goal), meaning he should be ready for the full 90 minutes on Saturday.

While Hazard's goal-scoring pace has cooled since a red-hot start to the campaign, he's still been a top-shelf DFS producer. He's got five total assists across his last four EPL matches, and he's put up at least 23 FanDuel points in all four outings in that span.

Hazard hasn't produced a true ceiling game in a while, but that could be in the cards versus Leicester as the Belgian should spend plenty of time on the ball in a match Chelsea should control.
