EPL DFS Breakdown – Saturday 11/2/2019
By Vince Dray
Goalkeepers
Dean Henderson (Burnley @ Sheffield United, $13) – Sheffield have been very good defensively at home this season only allowing 0.8 goals per game there. Saturday they’ll take on a struggling Burnley team that doesn’t have a great attacking group to begin with. He should be good for handful of saves but could really go off with both bonuses.
Kepa Arrizabalaga (Chelsea @ Watford, $12) – I haven’t been able to use my guy Kepa much this season with Chelsea’s defensive struggles. However, Watford just aren’t scoring at all with only 5 goals in 10 games. They should be able to force Kepa to make a couple of saves and Chelsea should win this game. Therefore, Kepa has a nice floor and a realistic shot at a ceiling game if Chelsea take care of business on defense.
Mat Ryan (Norwich @ Brighton, $12) – This play is like Henderson. Norwich have only 1 goal on the road this year in 5 games, which is incredibly poor. Brighton are a good defensive team at home, so a clean sheet bonus is a good possibility. Ryan always makes a good number of saves. He has the highest ceiling of any GK on the slate.
Ederson ($15) and Alisson ($13) are viable options on this slate as well with great shots on the win bonus. They likely won’t have to make many, if any, saves which is tough for their floors. I’ve seen them give up an unfortunate goal in a 3-1/4-1 win too many times to pay that much for either when we have options that are better for cheaper.
