4 FanDuel Premier League Players to Avoid in Matchweek 30
Aleksandar Mitrovic, Forward, Fulham
Salary: $9,500
Mitrovic is the seventh-highest priced forward on the slate, and he has averaged 18.31 FanDuel points this season. Mitrovic has scored fewer than 15 FanDuel points in seven of his last eight matches, including five straight.
Leicester are a large favorite over the Cottagers, and the match has a 56.9% chance of totaling over 2.5 goals, according to FanDuel Sportsbook. The Foxes have conceded the eighth-fewest goals on their home pitch this season and do non not relinquish a large number of shots at King Power Stadium, as they have allowed the third-fewest shots per match (3.36) in home matches over this slate.
| Home | Away | |
|---|---|---|
| Matches | 14 | 15 |
| Goals | 8 | 2 |
| Shots | 64 | 36 |
| Chances Created | 21 | 5 |
Mitrovic’s struggles away from Craven Cottage are realm as 80% of his goals have occurred on his home pitch as well as producing higher numbers in shots and chances created this season at home. The struggles on the road are not Mitrovic’s alone, as the Cottagers have produced the second-fewest shots on target per match (3.07) on the slate in road matches but do have a 63.8% chance of scoring while Mitrovic has just a 7.1% chance of finding the back of the net, per oddsmakers.
This slate will likely come down to Manchester City, and to a lesser extent Tottenham, and spending $9,500 on a forward who struggles on the road is likely to great of a risk in all formats. The top-end forwards on the slate are, obviously, the smash plays while Bournemouth’s Josh King could bounce back from a poor performance against Manchester City in Matchweek 29.
