After a full week of EFL games, the Premier League teams all take the field again this weekend.  There is a large 7-game main slate on FanDuel Saturday, and I’m bringing you all the advice you need in my EPL DFS Breakdown.

You guessed it.  Manchester City (-1.5) once again returns as the slate’s largest favorite on the road against Everton (they’re the only road team favored on Saturday).  Unlike past weeks, this City game only has a goal total of 3.0.  When combined with their away match-up against a halfway decent Everton squad, this doesn’t scream full EPL DFS stack to me.

Chelsea (home against Brighton) and Tottenham (home against Southampton) are both -1.0 in games that also have a 3.0 goal total.  Having three big clubs all as similar favorites makes me lean towards having a lineup with balanced exposure on this slate.

Wolverhampton (home against Watford) and Crystal Palace (home against Norwich) are both 0.5 goal favorites on Saturday.  Again, both of these games that the same modest 2.5 goal total.  None of these four teams are enticing in a stack, but don’t only play guys on MCI/CHE/TOT and overlook these games either.

The slate’s two smallest favorites are Aston Villa (-0.5) and Bournemouth (-0.5) both at home against Burnley and West Ham, respectively.  The over/under is higher (3.0) in the Bournemouth game with their ability to score at home than it is in the Aston Villa game (2.5).
