DraftKings Players to Watch: Brek on the Wing Again?

DraftKings Boden

Orlando City travels to take on the New York Red Bulls tonight in their second game under interim coach Bobby Murphy. We’ve got your DraftKings scouting report for you!


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.


Brek Shea 6.6 FPPG, $5.800 – Coach Bobby Murphy made the decision last match to move Brek off the back line and to the left wing, and it opened up the box for Orlando City. While they didn’t score, Shea’s presence created countless opportunities. New York has conceded 5 goals in their last three games, so if Brek is on the wing again, it makes him a threat in tonight’s fixture.


Carlos Rivas 7.4 FPPG, $4,600 – Interim head coach Bobby Murphy said in last week’s post-match press conference that Rivas could be available coming into this week. With the success the winger has had against the Red Bulls in the past, it could be worth the risk to place him in your lineup. Don’t forget, the Lions play two games in four days this week, so there is a good chance we’ll see some fresh faces on the pitch. 


Luke Boden 6.6 FPPG, $4,000 â€“ Boden is a steal for the price and was a solid defensive presence against Houston, so he’ll be essential to containing one of the league’s leading scorers, Bradley Wright-Phillips. Additionally, he took the majority of corners for City in the Dynamo match, so his offensive capabilities can’t be underestimated either.
