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?

Luka Milivojevic, Midfielder, Crystal Palace

FanDuel Price: $9,000

Milivojevic is a good player whose DFS stock gets a massive lift from his penalty duties. It's helped him score nine goals in 20 EPL starts this season, and he's gone for at least 24.0 FanDuel points in four of his last six league outings.

In that six-match span, he's shown a big ceiling, posting games of 29.9, 38.1 and 36.0 FanDuel points, and he's got just one match of fewer than 14.2 FanDuel points.

Yes, Paul Pogba ($9,500) is in a smash spot and also gets a lift from taking penalties. In small-field contests, if you want to go with the United star, go right ahead; it makes a lot of sense.

But in GPPs, Milivojevic is a fantastic pivot, and he's also in a great situation as Palace's 68.8% implied win odds for their home match versus last-place Huddersfield are the second-best win odds on the slate. Huddersfield have been some kind of awful this year, especially away from home as they've conceded 33 goals in 15 away matches, and Palace's 1.75-goal implied total is the second-best clip on the slate.

Something to watch for: if Wilfried Zaha ($10,500) doesn't play, it dings Milivojevic's value a bit as Zaha is the Palace player most capable of drawing a foul in the box and giving Milivojevic a chance to score from the spot.
