FORWARDS
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, ARS v. HUD (£28): Aubameyang has the highest anytime goal scoring odds of any player on the slate in a match that has the Gunners highly favored against Huddersfield. He's the most expensive player because of that matchup and the fact he's scored nine goals and provided two assists over his past 10 matches. Alexandre Lacazette (£26) is a slightly cheaper pivot, though he's been on the bench the past two matches.
Gabriel Jesus, MCI at CHE (£20): With Sergio Aguero (thigh) already ruled out against Chelsea, Jesus should start up front in Saturday's most-anticipated match. He has taken six shots in three of his seven starts this campaign, showing his decent floor. He's certainly not as dependable as Aguero, but the City attack is tough to avoid. Apart from Jesus, Raheem Sterling (£24), who has eight goals and six assists this season, is another City attacker who should be considered, and he comes in rested having not played in the midweek.
Lucas Perez, WHU v. CP (£14):Marko Arnautovic (hamstring) could miss up to a month due to an injury suffered in Wednesday's win over Cardiff City, which opens up playing time in the West Ham attack. Perez put an

Lucas Perez, WHU v. CP (£14):Marko Arnautovic (hamstring) could miss up to a month due to an injury suffered in Wednesday's win over Cardiff City, which opens up playing time in the West Ham attack. Perez put an early claim in for Arnautovic's spot when he scored two goals In 50 minutes off the bench. He did enough to warrant a starting spot and will be available at a friendly price against Palace. Only Manchester City and Liverpool have scored more goals than West Ham in their past six matches, making the Irons' attack a viable play in their current form. Chicharito (£17) is the alternative to Perez, especially with Andy Carroll (£13) still working his way back in after a lengthy injury layoff.
MIDFIELDERS
Christian Eriksen, TOT at LEI (£24):Kieran Trippier's ongoing groin injury will give Eriksen set-piece responsibility once again. In matches when Trippier was absent, Eriksen has taken the majority of corners, while Ben Davies (£17, defender) has also seen a few. Eriksen has scored at least 7.00 fantasy points in each his past five appearances, including at least 11.0 in four of those games. After a slow start to the season, it's safe to say Eriksen is coming back into his own.
Johann Berg Gudmundsson, BUR v. BHA (£16): Despite the return of Robbie Brady from injury, Gudmundsson has still taken the majority of set pieces for the Clarets. He is top 10 in accurate crosses and also helps his floor with 1.92 interceptions per 90 minutes. Meanwhile, Brighton have allowed the second-most crosses and shots among teams on the slate, which should give Gudmundsson plenty of opportunities to justify his mid-tier price.
Mario Lemina, SOU at CC (£12): After being suspended for Wednesday's loss to Tottenham due to yellow card accumulation, Lemina will likely come back into the lineup in a matchup of two teams who are expected to be in a relegation fight for most of the season. At just £12, Lemina is a low-risk investment who will be able to make value with his typical defensive work, which includes 2.7 interceptions, 1.68 tackles won and 1.5 shots per 90 minutes.
DEFENDERS
Ashley Young, MUN v. FUL (£15): Along with Burnley, Fulham have had a scoring problem over the past month, netting just four goals in their past six matches. This bodes well for the United back line as they attempt to win their first league match since Nov. 3. Young is a high volume crosser who is boosted by his role on corner kicks, and he's all but guaranteed to start after being suspended for United's midweek match.
Ricardo Pereira, LEI v. TOT (£14): The Leicester City defense has clean sheets in four of their past seven matches, which is a main reason Ricardo has scored over eight points in five of those seven games. A matchup with Tottenham isn't the most ideal place to play a defender, but it's hard to argue with the form the Leicester City defense is in right now.
Calum Chambers, FUL at MUN (£12): Despite scoring 6.75, 12.70 and 8.50 in his past three matches, respectively, Chambers' price hasn't changed. Instead of playing center-back, something he's done for much of his career, Chambers has been starting as a holding midfielder and performing well. A clean sheet against United is unlikely, but his ability to contribute on the defensive side justifies his price.
GOALKEEPER
Joe Hart, BUR v. BHA (£14): Hart leads all Premier League goalkeepers in saves (69) by a healthy amount, as he's been helped by the fact that Burnley give up the most number of shots on goal. He doesn't have the best clean sheet odds, but a home matchup with Brighton is still a strong spot to be in.
