Sunday 10/18 EPL DFS and Best Bets

182

This article focuses on 10/18 EPL Picks for DraftKings and FanDuel Sportsbook and FanDuel and DraftKings Daily Fantasy. We consider tournament tactics, statistics, pricing, and attempt to tackle this highly variable Daily Fantasy format so we can gain an edge on the field at large.

Sunday 10/18 EPL Slate and DFS Gameplan

Unlike yesterday’s games, today’s slate varies between the two sites. DraftKings is only running a two game slate beginning at 9:00 a.m. ET lock whereas FanDuel will have a three game slate, with the late game featuring Aston Villa visiting Leicester City included.

Tottenham is the biggest favorite on the slate at -176 and both Harry Kane and Son Heung-Min will be huge chalk on both sites. It makes sense to build around the both of them and trying to pivot from there. Aside from the Tottenham combination, I would not do much stacking. This slate comes down to pairing the both of the aforementioned studs with the magic combination of players from the other games. Clearly on DraftKings with only one other game, the options are somewhat limited.

EPL Best Bet

West Ham (+450) at Tottenham (-176) – 11:30 AM ET – Sunday 10/18

Pick – *OVER 2.5 Goals -176 – DraftKings Sportsbook*

DraftKings | FanDuel

The Betting Game Plan

Tottenham has been pouring it on lately. Coach Jose Mourinho has finally been able to implement his system and the results have been showing. However, West Ham has a couple capable attackers as well. Therefore, the -176 bet on Over 2.5 Goals is ideal.
