3 FanDuel Premier League Trends to Exploit for Matchweek 7
Low-Priced Keepers Are Not Paying Off
It is becoming increasingly clear that low-priced keepers in mismatches or on bad teams are just not worth a gamble. There is actually a $2,000 gap between expected starting keepers this week, but that is not the place to save money this week.
There is only one keeper under $5,000 and averaging double-digit FanDuel points. Alex McCarthy ($4,500) averages 12.3 points, but that is mainly due to a 35-point game against Crystal Palace. His last two performances have netted -4.5 and 1.0 points, respectively.
Do not just aimlessly pick a cheaper keeper thinking the point total does not matter. If looking for value, make sure to analyze the matchup thoroughly. In general, if you need salary relief, look elsewhere.
