DraftKings DFS EPL Strategies & Projections for Saturday, Jan. 17
We take on Saturday's Premier League DraftKings DFS slate for January 17, using projections to break down the top picks, lineup strategies and values for the upcoming slate. Whether you're playing cash games or tournaments, the below projections can help with lineups.
Liverpool dominate this slate as expected. Given their lack of depth, I haven't tinkered with minutes projections. Cody Gakpo is higher than Hugo Ekitike mainly because of crosses and chances created. Otherwise, Ekitike has the best chance to score for the Reds.
As usual, I tried my best to incorporate minutes projections, but without lineups confirmed, it's all a guessing game.
