This week, Orlando City will travel to Washington D.C. to face their Eastern Conference rivals, D.C. United. Both teams are tied at 34 points, and fighting for the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference (currently held by the New England Revolution). Here are some players we think you should consider for your DraftKings Roster.
Haven’t tried DraftKings? It’s easy. Each player is given a salary cap of $50,000 to draft their eleven player lineup. Players’ salaries are determined by their on-field performance, FPPG, or Fantasy Points Per Game.
Cyle Larin 10.1 FPPG $9,300-- After being named by MLSsoccer.com as the best young player in MLS, Cyle Larin will definitely look to have an offensive impact on this match. D.C. United tends to have high-scoring affairs, with thirteen goals scored in their last five matches. Look for Larin to play forward and find the back of the net.
Servando Carrasco 3.3 FPPG $3,900-- Servando Carrasco had some strong words this week about Orlando City’s playoff race. He’s already emerged as a leader for the defensive mindset that Kreis wants for his players, but now look for him to emerge as a voice of energy and passion as the team fights in a crucial matchup.
Brek Shea 6.5 FPPG $5,200-- Brek Shea has had a strong impact in his last three Orlando City matches. He scored against both Montreal and Los Angeles, and helped lift the energy of the offense against Columbus after going down 3-0 in the first half. Whether it is as a substitute or in the starting lineup, look for Shea to bring passion to the pitch against D.C. United.
