The busy fall soccer calendar continues this weekend with 2 full EPL slates before our second international break next weekend. This EPL DFS Breakdown will focus on FanDuel’s main slate Saturday.

With Liverpool (-1.0) the only big 6 on the slate, they are obviously the largest favorite on the slate at home against Leicester. The goal total is also highest on the slate at 3.0, and I expect Liverpool to take a large amount of ownership on this slate especially given the way they have been rolling through the league.

After Liverpool, 4 teams are all slightly favored by only half a goal. Three of those teams are home teams (West Ham, Watford, and Norwich), while Everton is -0.5 on the road against Burnley. All of these games have a goal total of 2.5, except for Aston Villa @ Norwich which is 3.0 given Norwich’s ability to score at home.

Based on this information, Liverpool is the obvious cash game stack at home. This isn’t a super great matchup because Leicester is a solid team, so opting for a mini-stack instead allows you more exposure to a team like West Ham or Norwich on this balanced slate.
