Paul Pogba, Midfielder, Manchester United

FanDuel Price: $10,000

The Pogba we saw during the World Cup last summer has finally emerged at Manchester United, thriving since Ole Gunnar Solskjær took over.

Over his last 11 EPL matches, Pogba has scored at least 20 FanDuel points on eight occasions, getting a big boost from his role as penalty taker. He's got five games of at least 38.0 FanDuel points in that 11-match span, including single-game outings of 71.2 and 66.8 fantasy points. In total, the Frenchman has scored eight goals with six assists across those 11 matches, notching either a goal or an assist in all but two of them.

United are in a smash spot as they host Southampton. The Saints have conceded 25 times in 14 away EPL fixtures, and they've given up at least two goals in all but one of their matches versus big-six sides this campaign. If not for an injury crisis, United would likely be more than a 1.0-goal favorite, but on this slate that spread still ties them for the second-largest favorite.
