​Willy Boly, Defender, Wolverhampton

Salary: $6,500

Boly is tied with Harry Maguire as the third-highest priced defender on the slate, and he has averaged 17.08 FanDuel points this season -- the second-lowest average among the four-highest priced defenders.

Wolves are a slight favorite over the Cherries, and the match has a 56.1% chance of totaling under 2.5 goals. Bournemouth have a 75% chance of finding the back of the net, per oddsmakers, a feat they have accomplished in 11 of their 13 matches at Dean Court, and they do not relinquish a large number of defensive actions. They have allowed the 9th-most interceptions (303), 10th-fewest tackles (447), 9th-fewest clearances (584) and 5th-fewest blocked shots (74) to all positions this season.

With the clean-sheet bonus unlikely as the Wolves have conceded at least one goal in eight straight road matches, Boly will likely struggle to reach value. Despite scoring in the Wolves’ previous match, Boly has taken only five shots on target -- scoring three goals -- as he is not greatly involved in the attack. Fabian Schar ($7,000) should have a great opportunity to hit the clean-sheet bonus against Huddersfield and is likely a better option than Boly at just $500 more.
