Happy Matchday 16, RotoBallers! There have been plenty of upsets at Euro 2024. We are now in our second day of the Round of 16 with England facing Slovakia and Spain facing Georgia.
After Georgia surprised many, qualifying for the Knockout Round in Group F, can they continue their momentum and pull off one of the biggest shocks in Euro history? Can England break free from what is weighing them down and assert dominance on Slovakia?

Euro 2024 Matchday 16
DraftKings DFS Goalkeepers
Martin Dubravka - DK $3.8K || FD $7
Opponent - England
Dubravka has only faced one major test in Group play and it was a 1-0 win over Belgium where he recorded his only clean sheet while making five saves. Otherwise, he faced both Romania and Ukraine, making seven saves and conceding three goals. In England’s three Group play matches, they scored three goals and went 1-0-2. During this span, England was the third-worst in Goals For and they were the fifth-worst in Shots For. As long as Slovakia can hold steady on the backend, Dubravka has the opportunity to make value and more.
Others To Consider (CASH/GPP): Simon (DK $5.9K || FD $14)
DraftKings DFS Forwards
Nico Williams - DK $10.3K || FD $15
Opponent - Georgia
Nico Williams will enter this match after resting the final Group Stage fixture, a 1-0 win over Albania. In the first two matches for Williams, he had two shots, five created chances, seven crosses, and four corners. Williams is the main set piece taker without teammate Alejandro Grimaldo, providing some sort of floor. However, his peripherals outside of set pieces have not met most expectations. In a matchup against Group F darkhorse, Georgia, expect Williams and the rest of the La Furia Espanola to sprint out of the gates.
Others To Consider (CASH/GPP): Kane (DK $10.6K || FD $21)
DraftKings DFS Midfielders
Phil Foden - DK $8K || FD $17
Opponent - Slovakia
Let the ‘new dad’ power commence. Phil Foden had to leave his team briefly for the birth of his third child and has since returned. In all three Group Stage fixtures, the midfielder produced seven shots, three created chances, seven crosses, two corners, two tackles, and one interception. Due to his role on set pieces, Foden does have a relative floor, however, it is small. Can he break the point drought or will he play a fourth match without making the score sheet?
Others To Consider (CASH/GPP): Kvaratskhelia (DK $4.7K || FD $18)
DraftKings DFS Defenders
Milan Skriniar - DK $2.9K || FD $12
Opponent - England
Paris Saint-Germain center back, Milan Skriniar is not the most sought-after defenseman on the slate, however, his prowess on the backline, makes him feared. In his three Group Stage matches, he had two shots, two created chances, two tackles, two interceptions, 10 clearances, and two blocks. For under $3K on DraftKings, he is a well-respected value defender who helps pay up for the studs of the slate. On FanDuel, whose platform promotes defensive plays, Skriniar is tied as the third-most expensive defender, and for good reason. For those not wanting to run the ‘typical’ ‘CASH’ lineup, Skriniar provides the opportunity to be different.
Others To Consider (CASH/GPP): Trippier (DK $5.3K || FD $12)
Set Pieces:
- England: Foden/Trippier
- Slovakia: Hraslin
- Spain: Williams/Yamal
- Georgia: Kvaratskhelia
