World Cup Soccer DFS Lineup Picks for DraftKings (Wednesday Nov. 30) - MatchDay 10

World Cup Soccer DFS lineup picks for DraftKings for 11/30/22 on Matchday 10. These are the top daily fantasy soccer forwards, midfielders, defenders, and goalkeepers.

Happy Wednesday, RotoBallers! We are here for MatchDay 10 of the World Cup. Tuesday's action had some wild swings as Senegal pulled out the victory to advance from Group A with the Netherlands. Meanwhile, in Group B, England breezed by Wales, and the United States made its fans sweat with a 1-0 win over Iran. This sets up a Netherlands-USA, and England-Senegal clash in the first knockout stage. 

Today, Group C and D will wrap up group play. We have three big favorites in Argentina, France, and Denmark, but you can't count out any underdog at this World Cup. France is the only nation among the eight countries playing that has qualified for the round of 16, so there's a ton to play for in the final match. The other seven squads will qualify with a win.

The DraftKings World Cup DFS Soccer contests lock at 10:00 am ET for the 11/30/22 slate. Make sure to get your lineups in early. Also, don't forget to check out the rest of our World Cup coverage on Rotoballer with team and match previews, along with our betting and DFS advice. If you have any further questions or want to chat about the World Cup, feel free to reach out to me on Twitter @EuanOrYouOut.

DraftKings DFS Goalkeepers

Kasper Schmeichel - $5,800

Opponent - Australia

Denmark is a heavy favorite to beat Australia and has the second-best odds at keeping a clean sheet. Emiliano Martinez ($5,900) doesn't get you anything extra for that $100 over Kasper Schmeichel, so DFS managers should take their 10-11 points and run. I pointed it out in Tuesday's article with Andries Noopert for the Netherlands, and it paid off handsomely against Qatar. Going back to the simple, clean sheet well is a viable strategy on this slate, and Schmeichel is the safe option.

Others To Consider (Cash/ GPP): Guillermo Ochoa ($5,300), Mathew Ryan ($3,900)

 

DraftKings DFS Forwards

Lionel Messi - $12,000

Opponent - Poland

Argentina must win to guarantee they qualify for the next round. Plus, if they defeat Poland, they will top the group. Lionel Messi nudges Kylian Mbappe for the top play on the slate because of his country's need for a positive result. In the first two games, the GOAT has two goals, an assist, six shots, and nine crosses, and averages 25.95 FPPG. The Albicelestes are the second-biggest favorite, and Messi has the best goal-scoring odds among all players. So don't make this difficult; play Argentina's leading man.

Robert Lewandowski - $8,500

Opponent - Argentina

If we're looking to fade the chalk in tournaments, let's go with Poland as a massive underdog against Argentina. Despite heading into the final game atop their group, the European nation has the lowest-implied goal total and the second-worst odds of a win. Fortunately, superstar Robert Lewandowski finally broke his World Cup slump by bagging a goal in his country's 2-0 over Saudi Arabia.

While it would be surprising to see the red and white top the South Americans, Lewandowski's price and penalty-taking make him well worth a tournament play. Unfortunately, his floor is too unstable in cash, but with most DFS managers on the Argentinian stars, Poland offers a direct way to be different in Wednesday's contests.

Ousmane Dembele - $8,200

Opponent - Tunisia

France has such a potent attack that sometimes, Ousmane Dembele is the forgotten man. However, with France not needing a great result here, the 25-year-old could become more of a focal point for the French if they decide the give more rest to their regulars. The Barcelona forward hasn't cracked the 80-minute mark in Qatar, but that will change in the final group game.

With Tunisia searching for a win, they will be exposed at the back. The French will not fail to score multiple goals against the defense, and Dembele will get the opportunity to add a goal to the assist he already claimed in the first game against Australia. He takes some corners, assists goal-scoring opportunities, and doesn't mind having a pop. Don't doubt Dembele's ability to contribute to your DFS squad.

Others To Consider (Cash/ GPP): Kylian Mbappe ($11,800), Youssef Msakni ($6,400)

DraftKings DFS Midfielders

Christian Eriksen - $8,300

Opponent - Australia

After a disappointing tie with Tunisia and a late-game failure against France, Denmark must beat Australia. The thing to figure out here is how the Socceroos enter the contest. A draw will likely see them advance to the knockout rounds for the first time since 2006, and they may be inclined to invite pressure and hope for a counter-attack.

If the Aussies take a laid-back approach, Christian Eriksen will have a field day racking up the fantasy points. The Dane dominates set pieces for his country and is pivotal in their chances to avoid an early exit. The Man United man racked up three shots (one on target), seven shot assists, and attempted 22 crosses in the first two games. Those numbers give Eriksen a concrete floor to build on in cash, and if Denmark does grab a goal, it will come because of the 30-year-old's efforts.

Others To Consider (Cash/ GPP): Antoine Greizmann ($9,500), Luis Chavez ($5,300)

 

DraftKings DFS Defenders

Theo Hernandez - $6,600

Opponent - Tunisia

As previously mentioned, France doesn't need to win this game, but they would love to continue their current form as they look to go back-to-back as World Cup Champions. At the beginning of the tournament, Theo Hernandez was hilariously overpriced. However, an untimely injury to his sibling in the first game against Australia thrust Theo into the action, and he hasn't looked back since he came on the pitch.

In two (almost) full games, the 25-year-old has created nine chances, attempted nine crosses, taking two shots, and assisted two goals. Hernandez is the most expensive defender on the slate, but with the heavy hitters up top, it'll open up some tournament options with the Frenchman in your back line. A clean sheet is likely, and any attacking returns will be a welcome bonus.

Victor Nelsson - $2,800 

Opponent - Australia

With so many attractive attackers on this slate, DFS managers will have to take a hit somewhere in cash games. Danish defender Victor Nelsson played the full 90 minutes against France and is in line for another start against Australia, depending on Simon Kjaer's (hamstring) status. Even if Kjaer ($3,000) plays, I'm not afraid to plug him in because Denmark's clean sheet odds are so high. We should grab the discounted Dane and spread the wealth amongst the rest of the squad.

Others To Consider (Cash/ GPP): Marcos Acuna ($5,400), Fran Karacic ($4,600)
