3 FanDuel Premier League Under-the-Radar Plays for Matchweek 34
While the masses flock to Manchester United, Everton's Dominic Calvert-Lewin could provide a nice return as an under-the-radar option. Who else makes for a good GPP play?

Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Forward, Everton

Salary: $10,000

The lack of elite options has elevated the price of the remaining forwards. For most of the season, Calvert-Lewin has been priced in the $7,500 to $8,500 range, but we see his salary jump up to $10,000 for an away match against Fulham. That is only $1,000 less than Anthony Martial and should be high enough to lower DCL's ownership despite his good form.

Since the end of February, Calvert-Lewin has made Everton's forward spot his own, making six straight starts and playing at least 87 minutes in all but one of them. Over those six games, which included clashes with Liverpool, Chelsea, and Arsenal, he averaged 16.95 FanDuel points and failed to produce double-digit points just once. He is goal-less over his last three matches, though two of which were against Chelsea and Arsenal. Still, he put four shots on goal and created three chances created during that span.

Ideally, his lack of goals depresses his ownership just in time for a breakout match against Fulham. The Cottagers have lost nine in a row, and their 76 goals conceded are the most in the Premier League.

Meanwhile, Everton have won three matches in a row, including victories over Chelsea and Arsenal, without conceding a goal. These two teams are moving in opposite directions, and Calvert-Lewin has an excellent chance to be the highest-scoring forward on this slate.
