FIFA FanDuel Sunday Late Slate World Cup Lineup - 6/14/26

World Cup Sunday late slate, first kick 4:00PM EDT. The lineup pays up for Viktor Gyökeres in scorching form, pairs Memphis Depay and Cody Gakpo in the Dutch attack against Japan, and stacks an Ivory Coast clean-sheet correlation at the back, with value from Ueda and Abdi balancing the spend. Every dollar of the cap is in play.

Ayase Ueda — FWD/MID, $14

Japan's center-forward and the cross-game value in an open opener. Netherlands are only slight favorites here, against a Japan side with real counter-attacking threat, so this projects as an end-to-end game rather than a Dutch stroll — and Ueda is Japan's focal point in attack, the one most likely to get on the end of the chances their pace creates. At $14 in a climate-controlled AT&T Stadium, he's the piece that lets us pay up elsewhere.

Viktor Gyökeres — FWD/MID, $21

The anchor and the spend-up of the slate. Gyökeres is in scorching form — five goals in his last three for Sweden — and he's the undisputed focal point of the attack as Sweden lines up as the favorite over Tunisia. He's on penalties and the end of nearly every dangerous ball, and the books make him one of the strongest anytime-scorer bets on the board. When the most likely goalscorer on the slate is also your highest-floor volume play, he's worth every dollar.

Memphis Depay — FWD/MID, $20

The Dutch talisman and the engine of the Netherlands attack. Depay is on set pieces and penalties and operates as the focal point underneath the front line, and against a Japan side that figures to trade chances rather than sit deep, the shot and key-pass volume is there. In a roofed Dallas environment with no weather to worry about, he's the most direct route to the goals an open game implies.

Cody Gakpo — FWD/MID, $18

The in-form Dutch goal threat. Gakpo brings pace and a finisher's instinct off the left, and in an open game with Japan he's the runner who turns Depay's service into shots on goal. Pairing him with Depay gives us the two highest-ceiling pieces of the Dutch attack in a game projected to be played end to end.

Ali Abdi — DEF, $9

Tunisia's overlapping left-back and the value piece from the late game. Abdi gets forward to deliver crosses and adds the tackles and clearances that quietly stack defender points, and even as an underdog against Sweden, his attacking workload gives him a path to a useful floor. At $9, he balances the pay-up at the top of the lineup.

Guéla Doué — DEF, $8

Half of an Ivory Coast clean-sheet correlation. Doué is an attacking fullback who chips in crosses and forward runs, and against an Ecuador side that isn't built to generate high-volume chances, the shutout points are very much in play. At $8, he's the cheapest path to the same clean-sheet upside as the keeper behind him.

Yahia Fofana — GK, $10

The keeper and the correlation partner to Doué. Fofana's appeal is the blend of save volume and clean-sheet potential — Ecuador's attack isn't one to pile up quality looks, so the shutout is live and every save adds to the floor. Stacking him with an Ivory Coast defender doubles down on the same low-scoring game script.

The lineup at a glance — Viktor Gyökeres anchors as the slate's most likely goalscorer in red-hot form; Memphis Depay and Cody Gakpo headline the Dutch attack in an open game with Japan, with Ayase Ueda the cross-game value on the other side; Ali Abdi adds attacking fullback output from the Tunisia side; and Guéla Doué pairs with keeper Yahia Fofana for an Ivory Coast clean-sheet correlation. Pay up at the top, value at the back, every dollar working.

Let's have a big day! 💰🔥
