Czech Republic (CZR) vs Denmark (DEN) Dream11 Fantasy Suggestions
Patrik Schick has already scored one of the best goals in Euro history this year and is the focal point of Czech Republic's forward play. With Tomas Soucek behind him making late runs into the box, Schick will have a few chances to score in this match.
Denmark have a few attacking options of their own and have relied heavily on the prodigious talent of Mikkel Damsgaard. Kasper Dolberg stunned Wales with his brace last week and is a must-have in this team.
Joakim Maehle has been one of Denmark's standout players this year and his propensity for an attacking foray has produced goals at the Euros. Vladimir Coufal performs a similar role for Czech Republic and is an excellent choice for this side.
