FIFA FanDuel Wednesday Main World Cup Lineup - 6/17/2026

World Cup Wednesday main slate, first kick 1:00PM EDT. The lineup spreads attacking pieces across four games — Bruno Fernandes on a heavy Portugal favorite, Luis Díaz with Colombia, Jordan Ayew leading the Ghana attack, and Elliot Anderson for England — then pairs Jordan Pickford for the England clean sheet and adds value defenders from Panama and Croatia. Every dollar of the cap is in play.

Luis Díaz — FWD/MID, $20

Colombia's dynamic wide threat against Uzbekistan. Díaz is the engine of Colombia's attack — dribbling at defenders, getting into the box, and piling up shots — and on a favored side that should control the match, his goal-involvement upside is among the best on the slate.

Jordan Ayew — FWD/MID, $16

Ghana's attacking focal point against Panama. Ayew is on set pieces and penalties and drives Ghana's chance creation, the most direct route to goal involvement on his side in a game Ghana are favored to win.

Bruno Fernandes — FWD/MID, $20

The creative engine of a heavy Portugal favorite against DR Congo. Bruno is on set pieces and is Portugal's primary chance-creator — his assist and shot volume give him one of the highest floors and ceilings on the board in a game Portugal should dominate.

Elliot Anderson — FWD/MID, $13

The value midfielder on a favored England side against Croatia. Anderson progresses the ball and arrives into the box for shots, and in a game England figures to control, his volume of touches gives him real upside at a mid-tier price.

Carlos Harvey — DEF, $10

A value defender from the Panama–Ghana game. Harvey racks up the tackles, clearances and recoveries that pad a defender's floor, with the upside of pushing forward on set pieces. A cost-effective back-line piece.

Luka Vuskovic — DEF, $9

The value defender from the England game on the Croatia side. Vuskovic brings the defensive-action volume that scores for defenders, a cheap way to round out the back line and capture any Croatia resistance against England.

Jordan Pickford — GK, $12

The keeper, with England favored over Croatia. Pickford's appeal is the blend of save volume and clean-sheet potential — England should control the game, keeping the shutout live, while every save adds to the floor. He pairs naturally with Anderson for the England correlation.

The lineup at a glance — Bruno Fernandes and Luis Díaz anchor the attack on heavy favorites in Portugal and Colombia, Jordan Ayew leads the Ghana attack against Panama, and Elliot Anderson pairs with Jordan Pickford for the England side against Croatia. Carlos Harvey and Luka Vuskovic bring cheap defensive value from the earlier games. Pay up for the attacking anchors, value on the back line.
