And so we have reached the conclusion of the EPL season. Draft Kings will feature a full slate with all ten games, all starting at 10 a.m. Manchester City has a favorable matchup against Southampton and it doesn’t appear that Manchester City has let off the gas pedal as the club is three points from 100.
The standard lineup at Draft Kings consists of two forwards, two midfielders, two defenders, one goalkeeper, and one utility player. Saturday’s fixtures are below. The Fixture Difficulty Rating (FDR) comes from the Fantasy Premier League website. The rating is from 1-5 with one being the lowest difficulty rating and five being the highest difficulty rating (higher the rating, better the team).

Burnley M/F Johann Berg Gudmundsson ($7800): The price for Gudmundsson is a bit heavy; however, the top ten midfielders are over $8500 with Salah and Kane over $10,000. The Icelandic midfielder had 10.4 fantasy points last week, 9 FPPG for the season, and faces Bournemouth, a club that has given up the 4th most goals on the season.
Manchester City D Nicolás Otamendi ($4300): Manchester City stands a good chance for a clean sheet. Although Southampton is trying to avoid relegation, Manchester City wants that 100 points. Otamendi was rested last week likening the chances of playing this week. The Argentinian has averaged 5.6 FPPG which is the expectation for a low price.
