The Quick Pick: Daily Copa America Underdog Fantasy Pick’em Plays for June 25
Alphonso Davies Higher Than 0.5 Goals + Assists (1.5x Odds)
It wasn’t that long ago that the Canadian Men’s Soccer Team was only an afterthought. However, lately the Canadians are becoming more and more of a threat in the CONCACAF region.
Soccer fans will also have taken notice that many of their players are finding homes at bigger clubs. They have players in the Bundesliga, La Liga, Serie A, and the Scottish Premier League. For our Tuesday night banger’s purposes, we’re going to target starting left back Alphonso Davies.
The scintillating Canadian left back makes his club soccer home at perennial giant Bayern Munich. That fact alone should speak to his level of quality and ability to be an impact player.
But Davies is even more important for Canada because of his playmaking and creativity, which are lacking on a roster. Davies tallied three goals and five assists across 42 games played for Bayern this season.
Tonight against Peru, Davies will need to be a focal point if Canada has visions of a win and advancing out of the group.
So, let’s go with the Canadian talisman finding his name on the box score. We’re taking Alphonso Davies to go Higher Than 0.5 Goals + Assists against the Peruvians.
Rodrigo De Paul Higher Than 1.5 Fouls
The Argentinians came into this Copa America as the defending champions. In their first group-stage game, they put in a nice shift and defeated Canada 2-0. On Tuesday night, they go again, and the opponent will be Chile.
The Chileans are a bit more watered down than usual, but they still pack some punch. So, we’ve put on our value-hunting glasses, and they have spotted Argentina central midfielder Rodrigo De Paul.
As mentioned above, the Chileans can bring a little bit of heat to the game. Therefore, the battle in the midfield should be a tactical and hard-fought one. De Paul, who plays his club soccer at Atletico Madrid, should be called upon to make many tackles. And where there are tackles, there are fouls.
In fact, in his last performance against Canada, De Paul committed three fouls. So, we’re sticking to the trend in this Copa America of hard and heavy fouls. Let’s take Argentinian midfielder Rodrigo De Paul to go Higher Than 1.5 Fouls committed.
