Luka Milivojevic, Midfielder, Crystal Palace

Salary: $10,000

Milivojevic is the top-priced midfielder on the slate, and he has averaged 20.91 FanDuel points this season -- the most among all midfielders. Milivojevic has scored under 14 FanDuel points in two of his previous four matches, but was able to score over 29 FanDuel points in the other two, with goals in both of those matches.

The Eagles are a slight underdog against Newcastle, and the match has a 60.5% chance of totaling under 2.5 goals, according to oddsmakers.

Milivojevic has struggled away from Selhurst Park as his total number of crosses and chances created have more than doubled this season on his home pitch -- in the same number of minutes -- while Palace have sent in the fewest number of crosses (11.13) per road match on this slate. Newcastle, however, has performed well against Milivojevic’s key areas as they have allowed the third-most ( though closer to the fewest than to the top-two) shots (10.94), second-fewest crosses (16.19) and third-fewest chances created (7.56) per home match on this slate.

With Salary not being a major issue on the slate, DFS players will have to make sharp decisions, and possibly make strong stands on a player, to win large field tournaments, and with James Maddison ($9,500), who has scored at least 16 FanDuel points in seven of his last eight matches, sitting just $500 below Milivojevic, the Palace midfielder should be avoided.
