Daily Fantasy Soccer Cheat Sheet: Premier League Team Breakdowns

This article is part of our Daily Fantasy Soccer Cheat Sheet series.

The tables below are a quick snapshot of all 20 Premier League teams with their most daily-fantasy-relevant players and their corresponding 2017/18 season statistics. Two things to note: 1. players who changed teams this summer will show their statistics from their previous team; or, if a player moved in January, a best effort was made to combine his stats for the entire season; 2. if a player did not play in one of the eight leagues RotoWire has stats for (English Premier League, Serie A, La Liga, Bundesliga, Ligue 1, Major League Soccer, Liga MX, UEFA Champions League), stats from whoscored.com were used (and are therefore not as complete).

The goal of each table is to show who the most active attacking players are, who could be in line for set pieces, and which players rack up the most defensive stats. This is hardly a comprehensive team list, but it's at least a window into each team's statistical makeup.
