4 FanDuel Premier League Studs to Target for Matchweek 14

Wilfried Zaha hasn't delivered too many ceiling games this year, but he could go off against a struggling Burnley side. Which other high-priced players should you build around?

As is the case when playing any sport on FanDuel, it’s imperative to hit on high-priced studs, the players in which you’ve made the biggest investment. This is especially true with forwards in soccer. Not only are the top-end forwards expensive, they are the ones most likely to put the ball in the back of the net, and goals are often the difference between winning and losing in DFS.

Let’s take a look at some high-priced players -- all across the pitch -- who, despite costing a good chunk of change, are worth the investment.

This article is geared towards FanDuel's main slate, which begins at 10:00 a.m. EST Saturday and features six matches.

Matchweek 14
Saturday, December 1st
Brighton at Huddersfield
Burnley at Crystal Palace
West Ham at Newcastle
Watford at Leicester
Bournemouth at Manchester City
Manchester United at Southampton


At home versus Bournemouth, Manchester City are the slate's biggest favorite, with FanDuel Sportsbook giving them implied win odds of 90.9%. After that, things are pretty even as Crystal Palace (63.0% implied win odds) and Manchester United (54.5%) are the next biggest favorites. Obviously, City are going to be incredibly popular, but there are a number of routes you can take after you get the City guys you want.
