UFC Vegas 69 DFS Picks: Jessica Andrade-Erin Blanchfield

Top-End Pick: Clayton Carpenter | DraftKings: $9,300, FanDuel: $21

Clayton Carpenter punched his UFC ticket after a unanimous decision victory over Edgar Chairez on Contender Series in August. He is currently riding a six-fight winning streak, with two coming via knockout, two via submission and two via decision. Carpenter showcased a plethora of skills inside the Octagon, so expect him to put on a show in his UFC debut. He should dominate this fight with his technical striking, solid ground game and damaging calf kicks. The Top Fighters Tool has Carpenter as the third-projected fighter on this card, with 72.4% win odds and a 39.5% chance of being a top-6 fighter.

Mid-Priced Pick: Jessica Andrade | DraftKings: $8,500, FanDuel: $19

Jessica Andrade will be stepping in for Taila Santos on one week’s notice. She is currently riding a three-fight winning streak, with one via knockout, one via submission and one via decision. She is the former women’s strawweight champion but has recently bounced between that division and flyweight. Andrade will be facing a hungry Erin Blanchfield, who also is riding a three-fight winning streak and looking to work her way to another championship fight against Valentine Shevchenko. That said, Andrade is one of the best fighters in the division, and her power, striking and skill set should overwhelm Blanchfield. According to Stokastic’s MMA DFS projections, Jessica Andrade has 59.6% win odds and a 45.8% chance for a knockout.

Mid-Priced Pick: Khusein Askhabov | DraftKings: $8,300, FanDuel: $16

Khusein Askhabov has not fought since 2020, when he knocked out Yusup Visaitov with a flying knee. He has finally sorted out his visa issue, which has sidelined him for the last couple years. There is concern with such an extended lay-off, but Askhabov speed, explosiveness, solid wrestling and power should take over against Jamall Emmers. At $8,300, Askhabov is worth a few shots in DFS, especially if he returns to form and showcases his finishing abilities. Stokastic’s MMA DFS projections give him 54.5% win odds and a 28.7% chance for a knockout.

Value Pick: Jim Miller | DraftKings: $7,300, FanDuel: $11

Jim Miller reeled off some fantastic performances of late, beating Erick Gonzalez via knockout, Nikolas Motta via knockout and Donald Cerrone via submission. The win against Cerrone broke the record for most wins in UFC history. He will be facing off against Alexander Hernandez, which will be a step up in recent competition; however, he has not lived up to the hype, going 3-5 in his last eight. There is risk to rostering Miller in UFC DFS lineups today, but he can never be dismissed and there is always a threat of a finish. Stokastic’s MMA DFS projections give him 32.6% win odds and a 21.6 chance for a knockout.
