4 FanDuel Premier League Studs to Target for Matchweek 32
Marcus Rashford is in a great spot with Manchester United a healthy home favorite versus Watford. Who else is worth paying up for this weekend?

Kasper Schmeichel, Goalie, Leicester City

FanDuel Price: $5,500

You can be forgiven for assuming United's David De Gea ($6,500) is the best chance at a clean-sheet win. It's only partially true. Implied win odds do give De Dea the best odds for a victory, but with Watford carrying a 1.0-goal implied total, his clean-sheet odds aren't tops on the slate.

The best clean-sheet odds actually go to Palace's Vicente Guaita ($4,500) as Huddersfield sport a slate-worst 0.75-goal implied total. Add in Palace's 68.8% implied win odds, and it's hard to justify paying up for any keeper when you can nab Guaita on the cheap.

In tourneys, though, you can differentiate your lineup by spending up between the posts. De Gea and Schmeichel are each facing opposition who have 1.0-goal implied totals. The upside in using Schmeichel is that he's likely to see more shot volume than De Gea will, giving Schmeichel a better floor, and Leicester's 55.6% implied win odds mean he's a decent bet for the win bonus, as well.
