Tuesday 1/19 EPL Slate and DFS Gameplan

There is very little EPL ahead this weekend “only one game as otherwise all FA Cup”. However, we have a pair of midweek two games slate both Tuesday and Wednesday.

West Brom (+480) at West Ham (-165) – See below under Best Odds

Chelsea (+132) at Leicester City (+200) – Both teams are coming off 1-0 wins over inferior opponents, albeit not very convincing victories. Chelsea had come into this season with very high aspirations after a ton of spending. However, a combination of injuries and a struggle to coherently mesh all the pieces has led to an underwhelming performance as of late. They are still favored here on the road against a feisty Leicester side.

Notable Goal Scoring Odds

Note: Many of these players will not end up starting, but their goal odds are listed just in case. If they do not end up starting, disregard them. All odds listed +300 or below and projected starters are listed in bold.

Burnley at West Ham –  Michail Antonio (+118), Jarrod Bowen (+210), Tomas Soucek (+200), Andriy Yarmolenko (+210), Mohamed Said Benrahma (+260)

Chelsea at Leicester City – Jamie Vardy (+125), Olivier Giroud (+160), Tammy Abraham (+175), Kelechi Iheanacho (+190), Timo Werner (+200), Christian Pulisic (+280), Harvey Barnes (+325), Hakim Ziyech (+370), Kai Havertz (+370), Ayoze Perez (+370), James Maddison (+390), Cengiz Under (+390), Mason Mount (+510)

The Betting Game Plan

Normally, I wouldn’t necessarily be so high on West Ham. Nonetheless, the Hammers took care of business against a subpar Burnley side last time out. This time out, they get to host an even worse side in West Brom.

There is not much good to be said about the Baggies. At least the Hammer’s previous opponent, Burnley, can hunker down and play some defense. West Ham should be able to show they are a real “albeit, mediocre” EPL team and grab the W against hapless West Brom and extend their win streak.
