DraftKings DFS EPL Rankings & Projections for Week 2

DraftKings DFS EPL Rankings & Projections for Week 2

This article is part of our DraftKings Fantasy Soccer series.

Going forward, any DraftKings rankings posted will be under the paywall. Everything in life isn't free. Helping further, you can plug these rankings straight into the RotoWire Optimizer. 

The first table is for Saturday's five-game classic slate which features Manchester City in a smash spot against Ipswich Town. Erling Haaland and Phil Foden are the most expensive players, but Dominic Solanke and Tottenham could be just as popular given their reduced rates and favorable spot against Everton.

Eberechi Eze seems almost too obvious as a differential. He'll take you off expensive Man City pieces and has the potential to hit 30-plus points if things go right for Crystal Palace, home against West Ham. Son Heung-Min is also in that range and may not be as popular as you'd expect, mainly because of the City players nearby.

Rodrigo Muniz pops up high on the rankings chart for a home matchup against Leicester City. It makes sense as Fulham's No. 9 in one of the best matchups a team can have this season.

Ryan Belongia and Jordan Cooper are going live Friday at 1 p.m. ET to discuss Saturday's DraftKings slate. 

Jack Burkart will write the DraftKings preview, as well as the FanDuel one for Saturday's main slates.

Our projected lineups can be found here. Injuries and suspensions are here. Good luck.
