DFS Soccer: Fwd/Mid

DFS Soccer: Def

DFS Soccer: Goalkeeper

Quick Slate Notes:

• Both games on the slate should be competitive so you can have a balance lineup between the two.
• Arsenal is my favorite team that I want to use for the slate. At home in their domestic league they average a 2.6 to .9 win scoring 36 in 14 league games. Then in their three UCL group stage home games they 12 goals and held three clean sheets. Porto has been ok in away games this season but do allow on average a goal per game.
• From Arsenal the two I want to focus on are Saka and Ødegaard as they are the teams two best players in my opinion.
• For the Barcelona v Napoli game, the two main plays are Lewandowski and Kvaratskhelia. They both need to play a big role if they want their side to advance to the next round.
• I am expecting a CB to score a goal tomorrow. In games that are tight like the two we should see tomorrow there is usually an unlikely player who comes up big. I listed three (Araujo/Pepe/Saliba) who have the aerial threats in set pieces.

Drago’s Best Bets:

• Arsenal ML and Over 2.5 Game Total
• Barcelona ML
• BTTS Yes Barcelona vs Napoli
• Saka Any Time Goal Scorer
