Defender -- Kieran Trippier, Tottenham

FanDuel Price: $7,500

Trippier is basically a right winger who is listed as a defender, and he handles some free-kick and corner duties for Spurs, making him something of a cheat code in DFS.

He's averaging 18.7 FanDuel points per match this year, and he may have the best high-floor, high-ceiling combination among all players on the slate (not just defenders). Trippier has scored at least 15 FanDuel points in eight of his nine EPL appearances this year, with a low-water mark of 12.5. He's also got outings of 23.0, 32.7 and 28.6 fantasy points, so there's ample upside here, too.

Spurs are on the road at Palace. While it certainly won't be a cakewalk, Tottenham are 0.5-goal favorites. There's even a chance Trippier goes a bit under-owned since Ben Davies (5,000), Spurs' other full-back, figures to be very popular as his pricing hasn't been adjusted to reflect his new starting gig.
