3 FanDuel Premier League Under-the-Radar Plays for Matchweek 20
Which players make for good FanDuel tournament options in Matchweek 20?

Richarlison, Midfielder, Everton

Salary: $8,500

Following two quiet performances against Manchester City and Tottenham, Richarilson returned to his goal-scoring ways on Boxing Day with a strike against Burnley after coming on as a substitute. Those quiet outings followed by a missed start might be enough to lower Richarilson's ownership for this weekend.

If that doesn't do the trick, the absurd amount of similarly priced midfield options will. Sadio Mane, Son Heung-Min ($9,500), Gylfi Sigurdsson ($9,000), Christian Eriksen ($9,000), and James Maddison are in great situations and all but Mane and Maddison are coming off of 30-plus FanDuel point performances on Boxing Day. Richarilson won't fly completely under the radar, but his ownership is likely to be much lower than it should be at his salary in a matchup against struggling Brighton.

Prior to his matches against Manchester City and Tottenham, Richarilson had scored in back to back games, bringing his goal total in his last three matches against non-elite opposition to three. Brighton have been tougher at home this season, but their form over their last four matches has been awful, with a tie against Arsenal on Boxing Day the lone bright spot. In sharp contrast, Everton are coming off of a five-goal demolishing of Burnley, and have scored 12 goals in this last five matches against non-elite opposition. That success should continue on Saturday, with Richarilson likely to benefit.
