NASCAR Xfinity Series Atlanta DFS Picks

The NASCAR Xfinity Series heads to Atlanta, which was recently rebranded to EchoPark Speedway, for some drafting style racing this weekend. Teams will try to take down Austin Hill who has been dominate on drafting tracks in the Xfinity Series and especially here at Atlanta. Place differential and finishing position will be king this week while trying to differentiate your lineup from others.

I've continued to bet against Austin Hill and gotten beat so there is no reason to stop now. The rest of the field can't be this incompetent to let him dominate and win once again right? I think his ownership is going to be high and I'm not going to bet on a driver to lead a bunch of laps and win the race, I don't care who they are or what kind of track record they have.

The rest of these drivers I think start too far up to the front to where they are likely to run or finish. The chances of them getting a bunch of dominator points to make up for the lack of place differential potential is minimal. They just don't have the upside to make it worth using in your DFS lineups.

Place Differential Plays

Justin Allgaier

Carson Kvapil

Christian Eckes

Ryan Sieg

Sammy Smith

Jeb Burton

Daniel Dye

Josh Williams

Dean Thompson

Allgaier, Kvapil, Eckes, Sieg, and Sammy Smith are the top options for the race tonight as they all will have a chance to contend for the win and start outside the top 10. Kvapil especially will be a popular play starting back in 24th as he should move forward and have the opportunity to race at the front. All these drivers have the best opportunity to gain a good amount of place differential while being in the better cars that can race at the front to be able to get a good finish and score a lot of points. Jeb Burton kinda falls into this group as well and starts outside the top 25 so he should be a great option if he can stay out of trouble as well.

Dye, Williams, and Thompson do not run at the front as often as some of these other top drivers, but they start outside the top 20 and are good place differential option for the race as well. Staying out of trouble and getting a good finish in the top 10 will be important for all these drivers.

Cheap Options

Anthony Alfredo

Matt Dibenedetto

Brennan Poole

Mason Massey

These are the cheaper drivers under the 7k salary mark that have solid place differential for the race and should be good value plays. They all start outside the top 25 so they have a ton place differential potential and if they can miss the wrecks they should end up as some of the top drivers with a good finish. Dibenedetto and Poole will likely be popular plays starting back in the 30s.
