FIFA FanDuel Tuesday After Hours World Cup Lineup - 6/16/2026

World Cup Monday after hours slate, first kick 9:00PM EDT. The lineup pairs Lionel Messi on a heavy Argentina favorite against Algeria with a four-man Austria core attacking Jordan, adds Nahuel Molina for clean-sheet upside on the Argentina back line, and rounds out with a value defender from the Jordan side. Every dollar of the cap is in play.

Lionel Messi — FWD/MID, $22

The top-priced anchor and the engine of everything Argentina create against Algeria. Messi is on set pieces, drops in to dictate, and arrives for shots — his blend of goal and assist upside gives him the highest ceiling in the player pool on a side that should dominate. A pay-up that needs no stack to pay off.

Marcel Sabitzer — FWD/MID, $19

The hub of the Austria attack against Jordan. Sabitzer drives the midfield, takes set pieces, and gets into the box for shots — in a game Austria are favored to control, his chance creation and shot volume give him both a high floor and real ceiling at the top of the Austrian core.

Michael Gregoritsch — FWD/MID, $16

Austria's penalty-box presence and the most direct route to a goal on that side. Gregoritsch lives on the shoulder of the last defender and gets on the end of Austria's chances — against a Jordan side that will spend the match defending, his finishing upside is live.

Nicolas Seiwald — FWD/MID, $12

The value piece of the Austria core. Seiwald sits deeper and racks up the passes, tackles and recoveries that pad a midfielder's floor, with the upside of pushing forward as Austria camps in the Jordan half. A cost-effective way to add a third Austrian attacker.

Abdallah Nasib — DEF, $9

The value defender from the Jordan side and the leverage piece on the underdog. With Jordan set to defend for long stretches against Austria, Nasib piles up the clearances, tackles and blocks that score for defenders even without a clean sheet — a cheap punt that funds the pay-ups up top.

Nahuel Molina — DEF, $9

The attacking fullback on a heavy Argentina favorite. Molina gets forward for crosses and the occasional shot while the clean sheet is very much in play against an overmatched Algeria attack — the rare value defender with both attacking and shutout upside in the same elite spot.

Alexander Schlager — GK, $13

The keeper, with Austria favored over Jordan. Schlager's appeal is the blend of save volume and clean-sheet potential — Austria should control the game, keeping the shutout live, while every save adds to the floor. He rounds out the lineup with a real path to a clean sheet.

The lineup at a glance — Lionel Messi anchors on a heavy Argentina favorite against Algeria; a four-man Austria core in Marcel Sabitzer, Michael Gregoritsch, Nicolas Seiwald and Alexander Schlager attacks a Jordan side lined as clear underdogs; Nahuel Molina brings clean-sheet upside on the Argentina back line; and Abdallah Nasib is the value bring-back from the Jordan side. Pay up for Messi and the Austria attack, value on the defenders.
