Finally EPL is back! During the holidays the schedule gets crazy but it is back to a more traditional schedule.

Now onto the hat trick:
Forward
Top
The very clear top plays are Eden Hazard $11,200 and Mohammed Salah $10,300. You are most likely going to have to pick one, and one of them only. As much as it hurts my heart to admit it, I am leaning towards Eden Hazard. He has the better matchup and all of the offensive plays should run through him. I will have a GPP with both of them.
Mid
Andros Townsend $8,400 has been in a tear ever since @jduran said he will never roster him lol. If you are fading both top forwards you are definitely leaning into playing Townsend. Another great leverage play is Firmino as a pivot off Salah.
Value
The easy value play at forward is Dwight McNeil $5,800. He is no longer 4k (and still not available on FanDueLOL) but he produces enough peripherals to give us a nice ceiling and he will have some chances to score or assist.
Midfielders
Top
James Maddison $8,100 has been one of the best players for DFS purposes. His price got to 9k and we are now getting a 1k discount on him. As long as he doesn’t miss a PK he should absolutely crush.
Mid
If you are looking for 4-5 points, Ashley Westwood could easily get there at only $4,600.
Value
It seems like the Bacuna hype is finally over since he has not had a start in a while. And it makes it even more complicated that Huddersfield gave all set pieces to newly acquired Puncheon. I would highly encourage you to play either of them if they start.
Defense
Top
Both TAA and Holebas are very much in play tomorrow. Holebas has been letting us down but we all know their potential. If I had to pick just one i will lean to TAA ESPECIALLY if you are fading Salah.
Mid
Chris Lowe for $5,200 is a very safe play because you know exactly what you will get.
Value
There is no definite value play that stands out as of now, but as we all know that can change once lineups are released. If I had to pick one today it will be Yedlin for Newcastle and hope he gives me 4-5 points in a very tough matchup.
Goalkeepers
If you are paying up for defender I believe that Alison is the clear option. If you are fading Salah and Hazard he is almost a must play to get some exposure to Liverpool. I like the idea of a TAA and Alison double cleansheet stack. If you are looking for a cheap option I don’t mind Ben Foster tomorrow. And if you want a real flyer, play whoever is going against Liverpool or Chelsea.

They have recently added soccer and we are going to CRUSH IT!
MY favorite play for tomorrow is Liverpool v BHA Over/Under 5/5 with Gross UNDER 5.5 crosses, Salah OVER .5 goals, van Dijk OVER 1.5 steals, Fabinho OVER 1.5 tackles, Mane OVER .5 SOG!
