Sunday features simply the Daytona 500. Alex Bowman, William Byron, Aric Almirola, Bubba Wallace, and Ricky Stenhouse JR. will make up the top five to start the race. Monkey Knife Fight has an extremely easy fantasy point system: 0.1 points for each lap led and then a set amount of points for their position (20 for 1st place, 19 for 2nd place, 18 for 3rd, and so on).

Pick 1: More or Less Fantasy Points (2/2)
Recommended Prop Pick: William Byron OVER 12.5 Fantasy Points and Ryan Blaney OVER 12.5 Fantasy Points
Byron and Blaney are projected to be two of the higher fantasy point producers on Sunday and lucky for us, we can bet the over on both of them.
Byron may not have the greatest odds to win the race but he can pile up some points. Starting in second-place gives him an excellent chance to get to the front of the pack and rack up some laps led points early. If he is able to get to the front for 50 laps or so, a top 10 even 15 finish would put Byron easily up and over that low threshold of 12.5 points.
Blaney is also set at a very low point total of 12.5. He starts at 14th which is a nice position as well. If the driver can get up to the front early, maybe he leads enough laps to easily get a bit of a bonus boost. A top-20 finish would go a long long way for him to get to that total of 12.5 which just seems a little low.

Pick 2: More or Less Fantasy Points (2/3)
Recommended Prop Pick: Chase Elliott OVER 15.5 Fantasy Points, Joey Logano UNDER 14.5 Fantasy Points, Denny Hamlin OVER 15.5 Fantasy Points
This prop gives us an excellent chance to be a bit more aggressive. With the limited drivers that MNF offers, finding a few individual props that you are confident about and using them in multiple contests seems to be the way to attack a race.
As mentioned above, Hamlin and Elliott are expected to be among the top drivers on Sunday. The fact that we can take the over on both of them again in this prop bet is excellent.
As for Logano, taking the under seems to be the sharper side when taking this prop as a whole into consideration. If Elliott and Hamlin are able to hit their overs on fantasy points, there is a really good chance that they will both lead a good chunk of laps. At only 130 total laps, that does not leave many opportunities for drivers like Logano to rack up those laps led points. In addition, projections for Logano do not look quite as well. Qualifying 22nd does not seem to help his cause here. Finally, Elliott and Hamlin have reasons to race well here and both have much to prove. Logano may just encounter too much traffic to truly contend and hit that total.
