PLAYER RECOMMENDATION
GOALKEEPER
Iker Casillas, SPA v. CRO: There is talk that Spain could see some heavy squad rotation given that they only need a draw to finish first in the group, and one name being bandied about is Casillas, who is coming off a terrible season for Porto. Frankly, his best days are well behind him, but if he starts for Spain in place of David De Gea, he makes for a tremendous salary savings.
Petr Cech, CZE v. TUR: If De Gea does start, fantasy players can fall back on Cech, who is cheaper than the other favored starting keepers on the slate and gets to face a Turkey side that is goalless through their first two matches.
DEFENDER
Caner Erkin, TUR v. CZE: With a number of attractive attacking options in the upper-tier of pricing, finding a decent defedner at an affordable price is key. Erkin fits the mold, as he's sent in 13 crosses in the last two games and now faces a Czech side that has

DEFENDER
Caner Erkin, TUR v. CZE: With a number of attractive attacking options in the upper-tier of pricing, finding a decent defedner at an affordable price is key. Erkin fits the mold, as he's sent in 13 crosses in the last two games and now faces a Czech side that has allowed 58 crosses in their two opening group play matches.
Emre Can, GER v. NIR: While Germany are hardly guaranteed the top spot in Group C, they could still rotate a number of players and have more than enough to defeat Northern Ireland. The Germans have gotten very little from the rightback spot in their first two matches, which could give Can an opportunity. He's not a big crosser, but he collects tackles and interceptions well while playing as a defensive midfielder for Liverpool.
Ivan Strinic, CRO v. SPA: Strinic has been a solid fantasy option in Croatia's first two matches of the tournament, sending in six crosses, winning seven tackles and intercepting five passes over that span. He's unlikely to get heavily involved in the attack against the possession-heavy Spaniards, but the opportunity for peripheral defensive stats is certainly there.
MIDFIELDER
Thiago Alcantara, SPA v. CRO: After 20 solid minutes in Spain's opening match of the tournament, Thiago did not play at all against Turkey. However, with Spain ready to move onto the next round, the time seems ripe to give him a start, especially after Cesc Fabregas finished with one interception and one foul committed in 71 minutes against Turkey (yes, that's zero fantasy points on DraftKings). A few different players have taken corners for Spain, but Thiago should be on them if he starts.
Yevhen Konoplyanka, UKR v. POL: Konoplyanka may have one of the safest floors of anyone on the slate thanks to his crosses, of which he's sent in 22 in the first two games. The matchup Tuesday is far from easy, as Poland are working on back-to-back clean sheets, and with Ukraine already out of knockout round contention, it's certainly possible he gets rested. On the other hand, with nothing left to play for, why not attack for 90 straight minutes?
Ivan Perisic, CRO v. SPA: Croatia can win the group if they defeat Spain, and while the bookmakers think that's highly unlikely, the pressure will be on Perisic to go for it. With Mario Mandzukic and Luka Modric both banged up, Perisic will need to be involved even more than usual. If Spain go with a lesser lineup thinking they can cruise into the next round as the group winner, Perisic could take advantage.
FORWARD
Arkadiusz Milik, POL v. UKR: Poland still have a shot at winning the group ahead of Germany, though they'll need to do it on goal differential, which sounds easier said than done after scoring just once in the first two games (including a 0-0 draw with the Germans). While Robert Lewandowski has the higher odds to score, Milik has simply been better and contributing in more categories.
Mario Gomez, GER v. NIR: Germany have gotten very little from their attacking corps in the first two matches, and Gomez could be given a run to provide some kind of spark. He's a big presence in the box who can actually do something with the crosses that are being sent in, and if he starts, he provides solid access to the German attack at a fraction of the price of Thomas Muller or Mario Gotze.
