4 FanDuel Premier League Players to Avoid in Matchweek 20
Sadio Mane, Midfielder, Liverpool
Salary: $9,500
Mane is tied with Tottenham’s Son Heung-Min as the third-highest priced midfielder, and he has averaged 18.82 FanDuel points this season. Mane has failed to score over 17 FanDuel points in three of his last four starts.
The Reds have a 92.9% chance, per oddsmakers, of finding the back of the net -- something they have done in eight of nine home matches -- and Mane has a 50% chance of finding the back of the net, and both squads are almost equal in the possession battle.
Arsenal have allowed the 10th-most away goals (16) this season, and they haven't been an especially good fantasy matchup. They have allowed the ninth-fewest shots (236) and ninth-fewest chances created (177) to all positions while allowing the eighth-fewest shots (2.24) and sixth-fewest chances created (1.24) per 90 minutes to forwards and attacking midfielders this season.
With Son Heung-Min -- who has scored six goals in his last four Premier League starts -- at the same price point and Gylfi Sigurdsson ($9,000) both in great form, Sane’s ownership may be low, but the midfielder faces what should be a much more difficult match than those other two.
