Elaine’s Draft Kings DFS EPL Picks for October 20

Draft Kings has seven games on Saturday’s slate. Manchester City players will be most sought after playing at home against Burnley. Liverpool vs Huddersfield will be another match to exploit. The other games are rather evenly matched but don’t overlook the talent.

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).

Fixtures for October 20, 2018

Home Team FDR Away Team FDR
Bournemouth 3 Southampton 2
Cardiff 2 Fulham 2
Manchester City 5 Burnley 2
Newcastle 2 Brighton 2
West Ham 3 Spurs 4
Wolves 3 Watford 3
Huddersfield 2 Liverpool 4

 

Cardiff City M Josh Murphy ($6700) Murphy is a quiet fantasy producer averaging 10.1 points per game. The young midfielder only has one goal, but is getting points with shots and crosses. Murphy had double digit points against Burnley and Huddersfield so it’s a good chance he touches his ceiling again against 17th ranked Fulham.

Southampton F Danny Ings ($5800) Ings may not dazzle you with goals, but the English forward likes to shoot. Southampton matches against Bournemouth who allows the 10th most shots and 9th most goals.
