On Sunday, the NASCAR Xfinity Series will race at Dover in the Drydene 200. Yes, that's the exact same race name as Saturday's Xfinity race. Don't get confused.
With the top-15 finishers from Saturday inverting and then the rest of the lineup determined by formula, this race is going to have some more interesting lineup decisions than Saturday's, especially when it comes to place differential.
Here at RotoBaller, we want to help you make informed decisions about your DFS lineups, which is why I'll be breaking down the slates for the Xfinity Series. Let's look at some NASCAR Xfinity DFS lineup picks for the Drydene 200 on DraftKings.

Xfinity DFS Lineup Picks - DraftKings

Austin Cindric #22 ($11,300) - Starting 14th
This is a weird lineup, with a handful of top drivers starting in the mid-teens and then not a lot of compelling cars outside of the top 20. For that reason, I think stacking top guys is a smart call.
Cindric has been the best driver in the Xfinity Series. He led 49 laps on Saturday and finished second. He's the points leader by 72 points.
And he's someone not the most expensive driver on the slate.
Cindric is going to be chalky as hell on Sunday, but I think he's still worth it. There's not a lot of opportunities for place differential deep in the field, so taking advantage of guys like Cindric is going to be very important.
Justin Allgaier #7 ($10,800) - Starting 15th
The case for Allgaier is basically the same as the case for Cindric. He was great on Saturday and now has place differential starting in the mid-teens.
Allgaier won on Saturday, leading a race-high 120 laps. That's over half of the race.
Allgaier's going to be just as chalky as Cindric, but it's going to be nearly impossible to not go chalk on this slate, because the place differential upside with guys like Cindric and Allgaier and the downside of some guys starting in the top 10 mean that unless things get weird, a handful of drivers will be putting up huge fantasy lines.
Ross Chastain #10 ($10,100) - Starting 13th
Read the two entries above, rinse, repeat, etc.
Chastain didn't lead a lap on Saturday, but he did finish in third place, with an average running position of fourth. Unlike Allgaier and Cindric -- who both started top five -- Chastain managed to rise through the field, moving from 13th to third.
Today, he starts 13th again. And like Cindric and Allgaier, he'll be highly-owned due to his upside, so maybe a smart play is to try to get all three of these $10,000-plus drivers?
Ryan Sieg #39 ($7,600) - Starting 4th
If you're paying up for the first three guys, you have to take some risks beyond that.
Sieg starts fourth and will finish below where he starts, but even with that, I think he's a solid play. He's finished in the top 12 in four consecutive races, running solid lap after solid lap. He could potentially lead some early laps -- the three drivers ahead of him on the grid should be at least a little slower than him -- and has a decent shot at a top 10 finish.
Jeffrey Earnhardt #0 ($5,400) - Starting 19th
As I mentioned on Saturday, Earnhardt does a good job of finishing top 20 when he drives the 0 car. His 20th place finish on Saturday was his worst non-DNF finish in the 0 since Atlanta, when he finished 21st.
There's not a lot of upside here, but this is a top 20 car that starts 19th, which means that as long as Earnhardt keeps things clean, he should come away with a solid DFS points day. Not an exciting pick at all, but safe than going with the Vinnie Millers of the world.
Jesse Little #4 ($4,800) - Starting 20th
So, Little starts 20th, making him the guy in this article with the lowest starting spot. This is not a race in which I'm targeting place differential, and that might come back to bite me big time, but let's risk it.
Little finished 23rd on Saturday. It was his worst non-accident, non-road course finish since Bristol. This is another car that's a solid top 20 performer that shouldn't gain many spots, but also shouldn't lose many spots. He has the cheapest salary in the race, and his 5.42 projected fantasy points per $100 is higher than any driver priced under $10,000. I love Little as a throw-in, punt guy who allows you to afford three high-priced plays.
