This article is geared towards FanDuel's main slate, which begins at 10:00 a.m. EST Saturday and features three matches. The slate features just one top-10 clubs and is capped when Leister host Crystal Palace, with the Foxes a +120 favorite on FanDuel’s sportsbook, putting their implied win probability at 45.5%.

As with any DFS sport, it is imperative -- and even more so this week with minimal matches -- to have your players, especially the high-priced studs, live up to their price tag. When investing in any player, it is important to determine who will likely contribute in FanDuel's emphasized areas (goals, assists, and shots on target). It's also just as crucial not to overspend on players in bad matchups.

We should try to take advantage of the teams -- and players -- who play especially well either home or away, while also looking at oddsmakers' favorites and over/under totals. With a few clubs playing midweek matches, DFS players, as always, should check out injury reports and confirmed starting XI's when they become available since some players may be rested.
