Euro 2020 Preview – Win Daily Sports
Today’s article focuses on Saturday’s daily fantasy slates on both DraftKings and FanDuel. This is not a cash game slate, but rather a multi-entry tournament slate.
Given how large some of the contests are for this slate on DraftKings, I expect there to be a decent amount of overlay over there. Just by paying attention to lineups and double-checking as they come out, even casual players should have a slight edge.
Notable Goal Scoring Odds
Note: Many of these players will not end up starting, but their goal odds are listed just in case. If they do not end up starting, disregard them. All odds listed +300 or below and projected starters are listed in bold.
Wales (+310) vs Switzerland (+114) – 2 Goal Projected Total – Haris Seferovic (+230), Gareth Bale (+250), Breel Embolo (+320), Xherdan Shaqiri (+360)
This is the first game on the slate so the only lineup we will have prior to main lock. It also has the lowest projected total, albeit by a slim margin.
Denmark (-240) vs Finland (+850) – 2.25 Goal Projected Total – Christian Eriksen (+175), Andreas Skov Olson (+220), Martin Braithwaite (+250), Yussuf Poulsen (+250), Robert Skov (+290), Teemu Pukki (+400)
Between his role on set pieces and goal odds, Christian Eriksen should be extremely popular on this slate. Yussuf Poulsen is cheap on DraftKings and fills a forward spot for the slate’s biggest favorite, so he should be chalky as well.
Belgium (-137) vs Russia (+425) – 2.35 Goal Projected Total – Romelu Lukaku (+128), Michy Batshuayi (+163), Christian Benteke (+200), Eden Hazard (+210), Kevin De Bruyne (+270), Artem Dzyuba (+270), Yannick Carrasco (+310), Dries Mertens (+310), Leandro Trossard (+330), Thorgan Hazard (+390)
We will have to see how the lineups shakeup, as neither Kevin De Bruyne nor Eden Hazard are expected to start in this one. Be sure to build your lineups with added flexibility for this late game in mind.
