Euro 2024 Matchday 12
DraftKings DFS Goalkeepers
Patrick Pentz - DK $4.4K || FD $9
Opponent - Netherlands
Patrick Pentz has yet to record a clean sheet in the Euros, managing three saves with two goals against. Unfortunately for Pentz, he has not seen many shots either resulting in two low DraftKings and FanDuel scores so far. Luckily, he gets a final matchup against the Netherlands. The Oranje managed to produce two goals in a close 2-1 win over Poland, however, they were shutout in their draw against France. Austria plays a similar defensive style to France and will prove difficult for their opposition to break through. As long as Pentz can record a few saves, he will make value.
Others To Consider (CASH/GPP): Maignan (DK $5.8K || FD $14), Schmeichel (DK $5K || FD $11)
DraftKings DFS Forwards
Antoine Griezmann - DK $8.7K || FD $19
Opponent - Poland
Griezmann and Les Bleus are coming off a 0-0 draw with the Netherlands, needing to win their final Group Stage match against Poland by a handful of goals, if they want to win Group D. Fortunately, Poland has been one of the worst countries to play in 2024’s version of the Euros, being outscored two to five. France is expected to run their starting XI with perhaps a few rotations. However, Griezmann is expected to play the full match and he is the majority set piece taker. Furthermore, he is the only consistent set piece taker that can be played in the forward position on DraftKings. In ‘CASH’ contests, he will see north of 20 percent ownership. In his only two games at the Euros, the striker has seven shots, three created chances, 12 crosses, seven corners and one tackle.
Others To Consider (CASH/GPP): Gordon (DK $10.2K || FD $8), Tadic (DK $7.7K || FD $14)
DraftKings DFS Midfielders
Christian Eriksen - DK $8.5K || FD $20
Opponent - Serbia
Like Griezmann – above –, Christian Eriksen is Denmark’s monopoly on set pieces. In two appearances at the Euros, he has one goal, eight shots, 11 created chances, 19 crosses, 12 corners and five tackles. In ‘CASH’ contests, he is expected to see north of 40 percent ownership. If Denmark wants to secure a spot in the Knockout Stage, it is imperative they win this match and their hopes and dreams will be on the shoulders of their heart, Christian Eriksen.
Others To Consider (CASH/GPP): Sabitzer (DK $7.5K || FD $14), Gnezda Cerin (DK $3.6K || FD $14)
DraftKings DFS Defenders
Luke Shaw - DK $3.9K || FD $5
Opponent - Slovenia
Despite England leading Group C by two points, their fate is not fully secured. This will result in a similar starting XI with a few rotations. One of those rotations is expected to be Luke Shaw’s debut. Shaw has not played a match since February 18th for Manchester United in the English Premier League. In his five domestic appearances prior to his injury, he had two shots, three created chances, 11 crosses, seven corners, seven tackles and two interceptions. For under $4K on DraftKings as an attacking fullback for a big favorite, Shaw will be among the slate's most popular players.
Others To Consider (CASH/GPP): Mæhle (DK $5.2K || FD $11), Mwene (DK $4.4K || FD $11)
Set Pieces:
- Denmark: Eriksen
- Serbia: Tadic
- England: Foden/Saka/Shaw
- Slovenia: Gnezda Cerin
- France: Griezmann/Hernandez
- Poland: Zielinski
- Netherlands: Gakpo/Simons/Depay
- Austria: Sabitzer
