We have been on fire. Winning is what we do. EPL DFS is not easy but stick with us and you will find that you can turn it into a bankroll builder. This slate is rather exciting. I enjoy the slates where we don’t have all the big boys. The roster construction really opens up, giving you so many avenues to create your lineups. This is where your skills get tested. We are here to help. If you have questions, hit me up on twitter (TreyJ989) or find me in slack.

 

The DFS Army has you covered for all your DFS needs. NFL season is back and you are probably looking to scratch that itch as you see Draftkings and Fanduel commercials come across your tv screens. With tools like the Domination Station, the best optimizer in the game, and a full staff of pros and coaches with the common goal of helping you become a better DFS player, we’ll provide the back scratcher. NFL is great but there is so much more waiting for you inside: from NBA to tennis and everything in between.

This is a rather intriguing EPL DFS slate with a few ways you can go. We will be looking at the various builds in our slack chat so make sure you join and use that promo code to save yourself a little money. We have 6 games on the slate so let’s get to it.

Burnley v Huddersfield

The EPL darlings from last year have been off to a bit of a rough start this season but they are in a “get-right” stretch after thumping Bournemouth 4-0 and beating Cardiff on the road 2-1. They will welcome the worst team in the Premiership to Turf Moor. Huddersfield has scored 3 goals through 7 weeks. Don’t overthink this one. Take your Burnley plays and move on. One thing I had not expected to ever say is Joe Hart is a cash play at keeper. He is, though.

Crystal Palace v Wolverhampton

Crystal Palace has not had the benefit of playing with their full starting lineup very much this early going. That has led to being out of sorts, and lacking some punch, thus far. The Wolves have been strong defensively and lively on offense. If you haven’t gotten a chance to watch them, you should. I don’t think this match will be in your core. The style of play seems like we will see Wolverhampton take their shots but I cannot see Crystal Palace get waxed at home. I see a low scoring affair and will probably look elsewhere for the most part. If I have to choose a GPP play from this match, my vote would be for Rui Patricio.

Leicester v Everton

Unlike the last match, this is one I will attack in all formats. Leicester is riding a 2-game win streak compared to Everton, who just snapped a 3-game winless streak with a 3-0 victory over Fulham last week. This should be a fun one to watch and I am looking for some fireworks. The model loves this match. Regardless of the DFS site, you should strongly consider James Maddison for your cash games. Over the last 3 weeks, he is top 10 on the slate in crosses, fouls drawn, chances created, and shots. His price is increasing but it’s justified.

 

Speaking of models…

 

With the supreme court ruling that sports betting is legal, the DFS Army has launched their “Beat the Bookie” site. This is where we have handicappers teaching members how to make bets as well as sharing their proven models. If you have ever wanted to try your hand at sports betting, it’s better to do it with the help of winners in your ear. We have teamed up with the site MyBookie. If you are a new user and deposit at least $50, you will get a free month of the Beat the Bookie service.

Tottenham v Cardiff

See what I wrote for Burnley; but, instead of Burnley, think Tottenham. Instead of Huddersfield, think Cardiff. Cardiff will be overmatched and this could get out of hand. Harry Kane is the slate’s chalk. His ownership could be upwards of 70%. I will probably look to get my exposure to him in cash. Leveraging this game will be talked about plenty in our slack channels. Kieran Trippier will also be highly owned and a stack with Kane will be super popular, FYI.

Watford v Bournemouth

Watford welcomes a Bournemouth side that has put up 5 goals in their last 2 games (both wins), while they, themselves, have been sputtering after a hot start. This is a good spot to get back on track, but it won’t be easy. I like goals in this one. Bournemouth has given up their fair share crosses and Watford has 3 players (Will Hughes, Troy Deeney, and Roberto Pereyra) in the top 10 of fouls drawn over the last 3 weeks, of the teams playing on Saturday. Jose Holebas looks to be in a strong position, especially on Draftkings, for your cash games. On the flip side, I expect Bournemouth to get on the board, but I don’t think it will be Ryan Fraser. If you want the inside scoop, you need to get inside. Join us.

Manchester United v Newcastle

You could say that the red devils are sputtering, but I think the wheels have more likely come off. The manager is alienating players and he won’t resign so he can get fired. This is what it looks like. Newcastle is a struggling team. I don’t like the look of 2 struggling teams facing each other. The most likely scenario is that United wins this match but would anyone be surprised with a 1-1 draw or even a scoreless draw. That was the bad news. The good news is that this is the hammer. The ownership will be wicked low and if anyone can get their act together, it could bolster your chances. It’s a GPP-only type game and we will have the goods for you in slack.

 

That’s the game breakdown for this week. Remember, this is a top-level view and things can change. Of course, you know about the most important hour in the soccer DFS world. We will always have free content but the good stuff is saved for the ones who are willing to go the extra step. We will stand with you if you stand with us. Good luck this week!
