Saturday 6/26 EURO 2020 DFS Gameplan
Welcome back for the knockout round of the EURO 2020 Tournament!
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 (+420) vs Denmark (-120) – Yussuf Poulsen (+270), Gareth Bale (+280), Mikkel Damsgaard (+285), Martin Braithwaite (+340), Kieffer Moore (+410), Daniel James (+575)
Drawing inspiration from their fallen talisman Christian Eriksen, Denmark will look to advance on the back of a favorable matchup. However, I expect this to be the closer of the two games as I think the Welsh are better than people give them credit for.
Taking over for Eriksen as the creatie force, Mikkel Damsgaard is a great mid range play on both sites.
Italy (-215) vs Austria (+700) – Ciro Immobile (+148), Domenico Berardi (+190), Lorenzo Insigne (+205), Sasa Kalajdzic (+440), Marko Arnautovic (+475)
Italy should be the most popular team on the slate. You can opt for the triple stack up top or choose one of the three forward. Ciro Immobile has the highest scoring odds and is the most accomplished goal scorer. Lorenzo Insigne handles set pieces with Domenico Berardi the wild card off the wing.
Nevertheless, outside of the three attackers, the rest of the Italian lineup is very defensive-minded. There is no one else I would go crazy over including either of the higher-priced wing defenders.
EURO 2020 Best Odds
Italy ML (-210) – DraftKings Sportsbook)
Italy has been red hot and despite lacking big names has a certain style and chemistry. This one might not turn out as high-scoring as one would wish but I like the Azzuri for the win.
