08-01-20 | Heat v. Nuggets +1 | Top | 125-105 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 31 m | Show |
SUPER EARLY HEAT VS NUGGETS BOOKIE BREAKER TOP PLAY The Denver Nuggets defeated the Heat 109-89 back in November. While that might as well have been a lifetime ago, I still think they have an edge here in the two teams' first game back since the Covid-19 pandemic put the NBA season on hold. Admittedly, the Heat have an advantage on the perimeter but the Nuggets should dominate the interior. Backing a team relying on its sharpshooting following an extended hiatus is a risky business, and I'm counting on the Nuggets to grind down their opponent with their size and squad depth in this one. 10* play on Denver Nuggets. |

07-31-20 | Kings -3 v. Spurs | Top | 120-129 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 3 m | Show |
KINGS VS SPURS FRIDAY NIGHT NBA TOP PLAY This looks like a good spot to back the Sacramento Kings who sit 3.5 games out of the No. 8 seed in the West, 1.5 games ahead of the Spurs. San Antonio will have to do without power forward LaMarcus Aldridge down the stretch as he has undergone season-ending shoulder surgery, and I would not be surprised to see the Spurs tanking. Spurs have been one of the worst teams in the NBA so far with a 25-37-1 ATS record. I'm happy to roll with the Kings in this one. 10* play on Sacramento Kings. |
|||||||
07-30-20 | Mariners v. Angels -1.5 | Top | 8-5 | Loss | -100 | 17 h 50 m | Show |
THURSDAY NIGHT MLB BOOKIE BREAKER TOP PLAY I like the LA Angels to win this one in dominant fashion. Seattle left-hander Marco Gonzales (0-1, 6.23 ERA) was knocked around for four runs (three earned) in 4 1/3 innings of work against Houston in his season debut. Mike Trout is 12-of-28 off Gonzales and the Angels are 6-1 in their last seven home games vs. a left-handed starter. Dylan Bundy (1-0, 1.35 ERA) takes the ball for the Halos, looking to build on a solid season debut when he held the A's to one run on three hits with seven Ks through 6 2/3 innings of a 4-1 win. Only five players on this Seattle roster has seen Bundy before, and he has held them to a combined .228 batting average over 34 at bats. Additionally, we have seen a total of 29 runs through the first two games and I think we'll see plenty of fireworks in this one as well. 10* play on LA Angels -1.5. |
|||||||
07-30-20 | Clippers v. Lakers UNDER 216.5 | Top | 101-103 | Win | 100 | 65 h 10 m | Show |
CLIPPERS @ LAKERS THURSDAY NIGHT NBA BEST BET The NBA players have been training inside the Disney World bubble for a while now, but I still don't think they'll be completely up to speed. We should see poor shooting to start off with as the players shake off the rust, and playing without fans in the stadium to hype up the teams. Additionally, can note that each of the first three head-to-head matchups of the season went under the total (215p, 214p, 217p). I expect this to be another relatively low-scoring affair. Under is 24-9 in Clippers last 33 games as a road underdog. Under is 15-5-1 in Lakers last 21 vs. a team with a winning straight up record. 10* play on UNDER 216.5. |
|||||||
07-29-20 | Mariners v. Angels -1.5 | Top | 10-7 | Loss | -111 | 18 h 40 m | Show |
LATE NIGHT MLB RUNLINE RIPPER TOP PLAY The Los Angeles Angels put a 10-2 beating on the Seattle Mariners on Tuesday. I expect another blowout win for the Halos here in Wednesday's matchup with Andrew Heaney (0-0, 1.93 ERA) on the mound. The left-hander has already made one start this year as he held the A's to one run on two hits and with six Ks in 4 2/3 innings on Opening Day. The Mariners hand the ball to Justin Dunn for his first career big league start. The Mariners are 6-20 in their last 26 road games vs. a left-handed starter and I think they'll struggle to solve Heaney in this one. 10* play on LA Angels -1.5. |
|||||||
07-28-20 | Cardinals v. Twins OVER 10 | Top | 3-6 | Loss | -112 | 15 h 8 m | Show |
TUESDAY NIGHT MLB BOOKIE BREAKER TOP PLAY The Minnesota Twins have been swinging hot bats scoring a total of 27 runs scored through their first three games. Here they'll get to hit off Carlos Martinez who is returning to the rotation after a season in the bullpen. While Martinez is a solid pitcher, I don't see him slowing down this Twins team. As for the Cards, they've scored 15 runs in three games and here they'll get a look at Homer Bailey who made 31 starts last season, going 13-9 with a 4.57 ERA. They've had a good amount of success in previous matchups with Bailey who is 6-16 with a 5.80 ERA against St. Louis. St. Louis took a 5-1 loss to the Pirates on Sunday and over is 6-2 in its last 8 after scoring 2 runs or fewer in its previous game. 10* play on OVER 10. |
|||||||
07-27-20 | Mariners v. Astros -1.5 | Top | 5-8 | Win | 100 | 21 h 9 m | Show |
MONDAY AFTERNOON MLB BOOKIE BREAKER TOP PLAY I expect to see an extremely motivated Houston Astros team here after taking a 7-6 defeat to the Seattle Mariners on Sunday. The setback ended a 15-game winning streak in the series, which surely can't sit right with the back-to-back-to-back American League West champions. Tonight, the Astros hand the ball to Josh James (2019: 1-5, 4.70 ERA) who posted a 3.52 ERA in six appearances against Seattle last year. James was dominant as a reliever last year, and I'm sure he'll come in focused to make the most of his opportunity as a starter in 2020. As for the Mariners, they turn to right-hander Kendall Graveman (2018: 1-5, 7.60 ERA) who missed all of 2018 after undergoing Tommy John surgery. I'm counting on the Astros' bats to take full advantage of a rusty Graveman early before he even gets a chance to settle. 10* play on Houston Astros -1.5. |
|||||||
07-26-20 | Braves v. Mets -102 | Top | 14-1 | Loss | -102 | 18 h 2 m | Show |
SUNDAY NIGHT BRAVES @ METS BOOKIE BREAKER TOP PLAY The New York Mets and the Atlanta are heading into Sunday night's series finale tied at 1-1 following a 10th-inning Braves win on Saturday. I like the Mets to claim the rubber match. Mets right-hander Rick Porcello (2019: 14-12, 5.52 ERA) is 3-1 behind a 3.00 ERA in four career starts against Atlanta. He'll be opposed by left-hander Sean Newcomb (2019: 6-3, 3.16 ERA) who's 2019 ERA might look impressive at first glance, but he put in the majority of his work out of the bullpen. Starting is a whole different thing, and this looks like a good spot for the Mets bats to get going after a slow start. 10* play on New York Mets. |
|||||||
07-25-20 | Darren Till v. Robert Whittaker -130 | Top | 0-1 | Win | 100 | 15 h 36 m | Show |
FIGHT OF THE WEEK (UFC) - TILL VS WHITTAKER - FIGHT ISLAND 3 MAIN EVENT I like Robert Whittaker as a favorite over Darren Till in this Middleweight fight on UFC Fight Island 3. Whittaker is 20-5 in his MMA career and 11-3 in the UFC. He took a loss to Middleweight title holder Israel Adesanya in his last fight but should do better here against Till who is 18-2-1 in his MMA career and 6-2-1 in the UFC. It's unlikely we'll see much fighting on the ground as Till averages 0.66 of takedowns and Whittaker 0.36. Whittaker should have a decent advantage standing as he has more weapons and averages a solid 4.77 significant strikes per minute. While Till has a powerful left hand, note that he is landing just 2.41 significant strikes per minute. Till's chance of winning is hitting a big strike, but I expect Whittaker to grind him down with his accuracy. 10* play on Robert Whittaker. |
|||||||
07-25-20 | Tigers v. Reds -1.5 | Top | 6-4 | Loss | -106 | 15 h 34 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (MLB) - SATURDAY NIGHT MAJOR WAGER TOP PLAY The Cincinnati Reds put a 7-1 beating on Detroit in the season opener. I think they'll come through with another big win here in Game 2 of the series on Saturday. Cincinnati right-hander Luis Castillo finished last season with a 15-8 record behind a 3.40 ERA. This will be his first career start against the Tigers, a situation that usually favors the pitcher. As for Detroit, it is expected to be one of the worst teams in the league this season and right-hander Ivan Nova is 5-7 with a 4.24 ERA in 12 career starts versus the Reds. Reds are 6-2 in their last 8 interleague games as a favorite. Tigers are 13-41 in their last 54 games as a road underdog. 10* play on Cincinnati -1.5. |
|||||||
07-25-20 | Sassuolo Calcio +1 v. Napoli | Top | 0-2 | Loss | -101 | 28 h 31 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (SOCCER) - SASSUOLO @ NAPOLI MAJOR WAGER Sassuolo has been one of the hottest teams in Europe down the stretch. They were undefeated in eight straight games prior to a 2-1 setback to AC Milan last time out, and I like them to hang around here against a Napoli side that has won only eight of 17 home games on the season while Sassuolo has lost six of 18 away games. 10* play on Sassuolo +1. |

07-21-20 | AC Milan v. Sassuolo Calcio OVER 3.25 | Top | 2-1 | Loss | -55 | 16 h 44 m | Show |
MAJOR WAGER ALERT - SERIE A TOTAL BOOKIE BREAKER TOP PLAY The sizzling hot AC Milan have scored two goals or more in eight straight games and they put a 5-1 beating Bologna last time out. Here they'll face a red hot Sassuolo side that is undefeated in eight games while scoring two goals or more in all but one of those games. Without question the best offenses in Serie A, and I honestly don't think the bookmakers have made this total big enough as they should combine for four goals just about every time. 10* play on OVER 3.25. |
|||||||
07-20-20 | Orlando City SC +0.25 v. Philadelphia | Top | 1-1 | Win | 50 | 10 h 6 m | Show |
MONDAY NIGHT MAJOR LEAGUE SOCCER TOP PLAY Both Philadelphia Union and Orlando City have opened the MLS Is Back tournament with a pair of wins over Inter Miami and New York City. Orlando tops the group on goal differential, and I don't think Philly should be this big of a favorite in this one as the teams go head to see who will finish on top. With both teams having made it to the knockout stages they might decide to rest some key players, but I think that's more likely to apply for Philadelphia. Orlando is winless in the last five head-to-head meetings (3L, 2D), and I think those results will make them more motivated to finally beat Philly in this one. All in all, happy to get this price on Orlando +0.25 (half win in case of a draw). 10* play on Orlando +0.25. |
|||||||
07-19-20 | Chelsea v. Manchester United -0.25 | Top | 3-1 | Loss | -100 | 25 h 49 m | Show |
SUNDAY AFTERNOON FA CUP MAJOR WAGER - CHELSEA @ MAN UTD Manchester United has been one of the hottest teams in the world in 2020, recording six wins and two draws since EPL started back up again and they've kept clean sheets in 13 contests during a 19-game unbeaten run. Still, they'll have little to show for it in the league which is why I expect them to put a big emphasis on this FA Cup semi-finals game against Chelsea. The Blues have dropped two of their last five games and only barely beat the already relegated EPL basement boys from Norwich last time out. All in all, Chelsea has been too inconsistent and lacks the current positive momentum of Man U. 10* play on Man Utd -0.25. |
|||||||
07-19-20 | Hanwha Eagles v. LG Twins -1.5 | Top | 2-6 | Win | 100 | 3 h 29 m | Show |

07-18-20 | Sassuolo Calcio -0.25 v. Cagliari | Top | 1-1 | Loss | -53.5 | 35 h 4 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (SOCCER) - SAT SERIE A MAJOR WAGER TOP PLAY Sassuolo has been one of the hottest teams in Serie A in recent weeks. Last time out they played a 3-3 draw with league-leading Juventus and they had won four on the bounce prior to that. There should be no lack of motivation here as a continued hot streak could see them overtake AC Milan and Napoli for the last Europa League spot. Cagliari on the other hand is stuck in the middle of the table with little more than pride to play for at this stage of the season. The lack of motivation has been obvious lately as they're winless through their last five games (3D, 2L). I like Sassuolo to come through with a win here. 10* play on Sassuolo -0.25. |

07-17-20 | Watford v. West Ham United UNDER 2.5 | Top | 1-3 | Loss | -135 | 13 h 38 m | Show |
FRIDAY AFTERNOON EPL TOTAL TOP PLAY West Ham and Watford are tied at 34 points just above the relegation zone. A draw here would put them five points ahead of Bournemouth (18) and Aston Villa (19) with only two games to go. I don't see either team coming out too adventurous here as a draw would suit both sides quite well. We can also note that Watford has scored only 11 goals in 17 EPL away games on the season. 10* play on UNDER 2.5. |
|||||||
07-16-20 | Villarreal v. Real Madrid -1.25 | Top | 1-2 | Loss | -51.5 | 15 h 34 m | Show |
THURSDAY AFTERNOON LA LIGA BOOKIE BREAKER TOP PLAY I expect to see an all out offensive onslaught from Real Madrid who can secure the league title with a win here. They are currently on a nine-game winning streak with six clean sheets while Villareal has lost two of its last three to fall out of contention for a Champions League spot. Additionally, we can note that Real Madrid has been extremely dominant at home in La Liga play, going an undefeated 14-4-0 with a 38-10 goal differential. 10* play on Real Madrid -1.25. |
|||||||
07-15-20 | Napoli -130 v. Bologna | Top | 1-1 | Loss | -130 | 6 h 55 m | Show |
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON SERIE A BOOKIE BREAKER TOP PLAY Huge motivational advantage for Napoli who are fighting to hold on to 6th place which would earn them a Europa League qualification spot next season while Bologna is stuck in the middle of the table. There's also a revenge angle in play for Napoli after taking a 2-1 loss at Bologna earlier in the season and the team has been solid on the road all season. As for Bologna, they are winless with two losses and a draw in three home games since the restart. 10* play on Napoli. |
|||||||
07-14-20 | Seattle Sounders FC v. Chicago Fire OVER 2.5 | Top | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 9 h 47 m | Show |
MLS IS BACK TUESDAY MORNING TOP PLAY - SEATTLE VS. CHICAGO Both the Chicago Fire and Seattle Sounders opened the MLS Is Back tournament with low-scoring draws, but we should see more fireworks when the two teams clash for their second game of the competition. While Chicago is coming off a 1-1 draw with New England, note that the teams had 15 goal attempts each, and Seattle's 0-0 draw with San Jose could also easily have ended very differently with a total of 28 goal attempts split between the two teams. I think the offenses will be a lot sharper in the second game following the long layoff. Additionally, note that four of the last five head-to-head matchups have seen four goals or more. 10* play on OVER. |
|||||||
07-13-20 | Real Sociedad v. Villarreal -0.25 | Top | 2-1 | Loss | -104 | 15 h 35 m | Show |
MAJOR WAGER ALERT - LA LIGA BOOKIE BREAKER - 1:30 PM ET This contest features two teams with still a lot to play for as Villreal is fighting to hold on to a Europa League spot while Real Sociedad is one of the teams trying to steal one. I do like Villareal to come through with a win though. They have won three of their last four with the lone loss coming against Barcelona. Real Sociedad on the other hand has lost five of eight games, including a demoralizing 3-2 setback to Granada last time out. Real Sociedad averages just over one goal scored per game on the road while Villareal scores close to two goals per game at home. 10* play on Villareal -0.25. |
|||||||
07-12-20 | Minnesota United v. Kansas City | Top | 2-1 | Loss | -115 | 20 h 59 m | Show |
TOP PLAY ALERT - MINNESOTA @ KANSAS CITY MLS MAJOR WAGER This is the opening game of the MLS is Back tournament at Disney World in Orlando, Florida for both sides. Both teams opened the season strong before play was suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic with Kansas City outscoring Vancouver and Houston by a combined 7-1 over two victories while Minnesota United took care of business against Portland and San Jose by a combined goal differential of 8-3. I like Kansas City to be the team to continue its winning ways. Minnesota will have to do without 2019 MLS Defender of the Year Ike Opara who did not make the trip to Florida as he continues to rehab a preexisting injury. That leaves the Loons a tad thin at center back, and we can also note that defensive midfielder Ozzie Alonso is questionable with a tight hamstring. Sporting KC's offense led by two quality strikers in Alan Pulido and Gadi Kinda has the firepower to hurt just about any team in the league. 10* play on Kansas City PK. |
|||||||
07-12-20 | Jorge Masvidal v. Kamaru Usman OVER 4.5 | Top | 0-5 | Win | 105 | 25 h 32 m | Show |
FIGHT OF THE MONTH - UFC 251 MAIN EVENT - TOTAL ROUNDS I think we'll see an evenly contested fight, likely to go the distance, when Kamaru Usman clashes with Jorge Masvidal in the UFC 251 Fight Island main event on Saturday. Usman is a perfect 11-0 in the UFC and the reigning Welterweight division champion. He is a well-rounded fighter who is riding a 15-fight win streak and won his last fight by TKO in the 5th round when he defended his title against Colby Covington back in December of 2019. As for Jorge Masividal, he owns an MMA record of 35-13, 12-6 in the UFC. He has won three straight fights and defeated Nate Diaz by TKO in November of 2019 in his last fight. While Masvidal is coming in on short notice as a replacement for Gilbert Burns who tested positive for COVID-19, keep in mind that Usman will also need to adjust his gameplan. Additionally, this is a fight Masvidal has been looking forward to for a long time and he has reportedly never stopped preparing for a potential scrap opposite Usman. "It’s short notice, because he didn’t have the contract signed, but let me tell you what: This guy was there my whole training camp," Dustin Poirier said on "THE FIGHT with Teddy Atlas." "He was my main sparring partner. We probably put in five weeks of sparring together. He flew in wrestlers, the best wrestlers in the world." I think the bookmakers have juiced up the moneyline on Usman too much because of the short notice change, but he is undoubtedly the better fighter. That being said, while Usman is likely to dictate the fight, he will most likely find it tough to break through Masvidal's excellent defense, and I like the over in this bout. 10* play on OVER 4.5 (you'll find Over 3.5 at about -115 at some books which also is a good bet). |
|||||||
07-11-20 | Newcastle United v. Watford -119 | Top | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 30 h 23 m | Show |
GAME OF THE MONTH (SOCCER) - PREMIER LEAGUE MAJOR WAGER TOP PLAY Newcastle took a 5-0 beating by Manchester City last time out, and as they sit 15 points clear of the relegation zone the motivation for a bounce back game here against Watford might not be there. As for Watford, they are fighting tooth and nail for the right to play Premier League soccer next season as well. They enter the weekend only three points out of the relegation zone, and with some momentum after defeating Norwich 2-1 last time out. Newcastle has lost 10 of its 17 away games on the season while posting a dreadful 17-35 goal differential. I'm well happy to take the motivated home team at this price. 10* play on Watford. |
|||||||
07-09-20 | Tottenham Hotspur -137 v. AFC Bournemouth | Top | 0-0 | Loss | -137 | 25 h 13 m | Show |
MAJOR WAGER - THURSDAY PREMIER LEAGUE BOOKIE BREAKER TOP PLAY Tottenham is coming off a 1-0 triumph over Everton, and another win here with see the team overtake three teams for the last Europa League spot. Here Spurs will pay a visit to a Bournemouth side that is has beaten by at least three goals in two of its last four visits. I expect to see another comfortable Tottenham win in this one. Bournemouth is in shambles as five straight Premier League defeats have seen the side plummet into the relegation zone. Last time out Bournemouth took a 5-2 beating by Man U, and the game before that it fell 4-1 to Newcastle. I think we are getting a great price on a motivated, in-form superior team. 10* play on Tottenham. |
|||||||
07-08-20 | Sampdoria v. Atalanta -1.5 | Top | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 10 h 39 m | Show |
MAJOR WAGER - SERIE A BOOKIE BREAKER TOP PLAY This looks like a potential let down spot for Sampdoria who are coming off back-to-back wins to move into 14th place with five points down to the relegation zone. Here they'll face an Atalanta side that is arguably the hottest team in Europe, coming off 11 straight wins all competitions combined and it has scored almost at will in those games. Visiting Sampdoria has allowed 51 goals in 30 Serie A games on the season and I expect the home team to win this one comfortably. 10* play on Atalanta -1.5. |
|||||||
07-07-20 | Juventus v. AC Milan +0.5 | Top | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 16 h 37 m | Show |
JUVENTUS @ MILAN TOP PLAY Juventus have four straight Serie A games since the restart, outscoring opponents 13-2 in the process. However, on the contrary on what the scoreline says, They did not look all that great in their 4-1 win over Torino last time out. Here Juve will face an AC Milan team that is battling for the Europa League spots, and like Juventus it is also undefeated since the restart. On the season, Milan have lost only four of 14 Serie A home games. Juve sit seven points clear at the top of the table, and I think the home team will be the more motivated side in this one. 10* play on AC Milan +0.5. |
|||||||
07-06-20 | SD Eibar v. Sevilla -1 | Top | 0-1 | Push | 0 | 31 h 9 m | Show |
MONDAY AFTERNOON EIBAR @ SEVILLA LA LIGA TOP PLAY Sevilla are undefeated since the La Liga restart and last time out they came through with a dominant 3-0 rout of Leganes. With five points (and a game in hand) up to third-place Atletico Madrid, there is no time for complacency though and I expect another easy win for Sevilla here against an Eibar side that sits six points above the relegation zone. Eibar had gone undefeated through four games before coming up short in a 2-0 loss to Osasuna last time out. I think they're about to run out of gas and Sevilla have a quality squad capable of taking advantage of every minor defensive error. 10* play on Sevilla. |
|||||||
07-05-20 | Verona v. Brescia OVER 2.5 | Top | 0-2 | Loss | -113 | 3 h 1 m | Show |
MAJOR WAGER ALERT - SUNDAY AFTERNOON SERIE A TOTAL TOP PLAY Brescia took a 6-0 beating by Inter last time out and they have allowed a total of nine goals in three games since the Serie A restart. They are 18-11 to the over (2.5 goals) on the season and as they are already all but doomed for relegation already, the motivation to play defense can't be high. Here they'll face a Verona side that has seen a combined total of 11 goals in their last two games and I expect a wide open high-scoring affair. 10* play on OVER. |
|||||||
07-04-20 | Torino v. Juventus -1.5 | Top | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 33 h 32 m | Show |
SERIE A BOOKIE BREAKER TOP PLAY - EARLY SATURDAY - 11:15 AM KICK OFF League-leading Juventus to win by two goals or more looks like a really solid bet in this one IMO. This is "Derby Della Mole", the local Turin derby played out between the city's most prominent football clubs, a derby that Juventus have owned in recent years. They won the reverse fixture 1-0 back in November, but completely owned the game and could easily have won by a larger margin. Additionally, Juve have been on fire since the Serie A restart, recording three straight wins while outscoring their opponents by a total of 9-1. As for Torino, they've played four games since the restart, losing the last two by a total of 6-3. 10* play on Juventus -1.5. |
|||||||
07-01-20 | Villarreal v. Betis | Top | 2-0 | Win | 100 | 12 h 27 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (SOCCER) - LA LIGA MAJOR WAGER TOP PLAY Villareal steamrolled Betis in a 5-1 triumph the first head-to-head matchup of the season. Betis have home field advantage in this one (whatever that means with no crowd in the stands), but I still like the visitors to come through and win this one as well. Betis fired coach Rubi on June 21 after a series of disappointing results, but they've not played much better since and took a 4-2 beating by Levante last time out. Villarreal on the other hand are one of the hotter sides in the league, going undefeated with four wins since the restart. Additionally, Betis are stuck in no-mans-land in the table while Villareal are currently holding down a Europa League spot, and they even have an outside chance of reaching the Champions League. 10* play on Villareal PK. |

PADERBORN @ FRANKFURT BUNDESLIGA BOOKIE BREAKER TOP PLAY Eintracht Frankfurt are undefeated with two wins in their last three games as they head into this Bundesliga clash with Paderborn. The visitors are dead last in the standings and with only three games to go, without any hope of climbing out of the relegation zone. Frankfurt would need a small miracle to overtake two teams to earn a Europa League spot for next season, but I think they'll at least do their part of the job. 10* play on Frankfurt -1.5. |

06-25-20 | Arsenal v. Southampton | Top | 2-0 | Loss | -101 | 3 h 53 m | Show |
OFF 5-0 SWEEP - ARSENAL @ SOUTHAMPTON TOP PLAY - EARLY THURSDAY EPL ACTION Arsenal did not just just take a 3-0 beating on the scoreboard by Man City a week ago, they also lost several players to injury. The Gunners' next game was not much better as they fell 2-1 at Brighton on Saturday, and I think they're in trouble here against a Southampton side that must feel pretty confident coming off a 3-0 win at Norwich. Arsenal have won just two of their 15 EPL away games on the season, and I like the price we get on the home team against a banged-up Arsenal squad. 10* play on Southampton PK. |
|||||||
06-24-20 | Lazio v. Atalanta OVER 3 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 32 h 59 m | Show |
GAME OF THE MONTH (SOCCER) - TOP RATED SERIE A TOTAL - WEDNESDAY 3:45 PM Atalanta is the highest scoring side in Serie A with an average of 4.2 goals per game. Their lone game since the restart saw five goals scored (4-1 win over Sassuolo), and here they'll face a Lazio side that is also more than capable of both scoring and conceding. While this will be Lazio's first Serie A game back since the restart, note that they defeated Ternana 7-2 in a Friendly on June 20. Serie A games involving Lazio have seen an average of 3.2 goals per game. The last head-to-head meeting finished 3-3, and I expect to see plenty of fireworks from both sides again in this one. 10* play on OVER 3 goals. |

WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON PREMIER LEAGUE TOP PLAY - CRYSTAL PALACE @ LIVERPOOL Liverpool are coming off a rather sluggish 0-0 draw in the Merseyside derby with Everton. I expect to see more fireworks from the Reds in here as they would secure the league title with a win. Visting Crystal Palace are safe from relegation after defeating Bournemouth last time out, and I would not be surprised to see the visitors come out flat in this one. 10* play on Liverpool -1.5. |

06-22-20 | Sevilla v. Villarreal | Top | 2-2 | Push | 0 | 9 h 57 m | Show |
MONDAY NIGHT LA LIGA TOP PLAY - SEVILLA @ VILLAREAL Sevilla are coming off a couple of disappointing draws which have seen Atletico Madrid overtake them for third place in the La Liga standings. Here they'll face a Villareal team that has recorded three straight 1-0 triumphs since the restart, but I still like Sevilla to come through with a win in this one. The teams Villareal have beaten have not been nearly the quality of Sevilla who boast the second-best road record in the league while Villareal's home record ranks in the bottom half. 10* play on Sevilla. |

06-20-20 | Josh Emmett v. Shane Burgos -135 | Top | 1-0 | Loss | -135 | 60 h 19 m | Show |
FIGHT OF THE WEEK (UFC) - EMMETT VS. BURGOS UFC FIGHT NIGHT JUNE 20 Shane Burgos is 13-1 in his MMA career (6-1 in UFC), and I like him to book another win here against Josh Emmett. Emmett is 6-2 in the UFC, but not nearly as good of a striker as Burgos (75.5 inches vs. 70 inches reach advantage Burgos) who averages 7.09 strikes per minute. While Emmett might be looking to take this fight to the ground, note that Burgos successfully defends 90% of takedown attempts. Even though Emmett is coming off impressive back-to-back knockouts, I think the 35-year-old will struggle to keep up with the younger (29-year-old) and more energetic "Hurricane" Burgos in this one. 10* play on Shane Burgos. |

06-19-20 | Manchester United v. Tottenham Hotspur | Top | 1-1 | Push | 0 | 106 h 57 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (SOCCER) - MAN UTD @ TOTTENHAM *TOP PLAY* This should be an intense affair between fifth-place Manchester United and eight-place Tottenham Hotspur. Man U really caught their stride prior to the break going undefeated with eight wins through their last 11 games in all competitions. While some of the momentum might be gone, I still think we're getting a great price on the Red Devils in this one. Tottenham have dropped five of their last six games, and while the last game took place almost three months ago, it can't be a confident Tottenham side taking the field. Former Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho will try to get his team fired up for this one, but I don't see it being enough against a United team that is really coming together nicely under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. 10* play on Man UTD pk. |
|||||||
06-17-20 | Hoffenheim v. FC Augsburg OVER 3 | Top | 3-1 | Win | 102 | 7 h 8 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (SOCCER) - TOP RATED BUNDESLIGA TOTAL Hoffenheim were shut out in a 2-0 loss to RB Leipzig last time out. Before that outing, they had scored six goals in three games since the restart and I think they'll come to play and make Augsburg pay the price in this one. Augsburg are fighting to avoid getting involved in the relation battle while Hoffenheim are looking to climb into a Europa League spot. With both teams aiming for the three points, I expect to see a wide open affair with plenty of goals. Hoffenheim have seen average of three goals per game on the season while games involving Augsburg have seen 3.2 gpg on average. We can also note that Augsburg have found the net in all but two of their 15 league home fixtures to date. 10* play on OVER. |
|||||||
06-16-20 | Leganes v. Barcelona FC -2 | Top | 0-2 | Push | 0 | 12 h 45 m | Show |
LEGANES @ BARCELONA TUESDAY AFTERNOON LA LIGA *TOP PLAY* Barcelona restarted the season with a 4-0 blowout win over Mallorca while Leganes took a 2-1 home loss against Valladolid last time out. Six of Barelona's last 10 home league victories have seen them overcome the -2 handicap and here they'll face a Leganes team that is second to last in the league. Barca never slow down at home, and I fully expect them to run up the score against this inferior Leganes side. 10* play on Barcelona. *Money back if Barcelona win by exactly 2 goals. |
|||||||
06-13-20 | Borussia Monchengladbach v. Bayern Munich -1.25 | Top | 1-2 | Loss | -58.5 | 29 h 53 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (SOCCER) - TOP RATED BUNDESLIGA BOOKIE BREAKER - SATURRDAY 12:30 PM Robert Lewandowski and Thomas Muller will be unavailable for Bayern Munich, but they have a deep squad and I still think they'll get the job done against Borussia Mönchengladbach. The Bavarians could claim the title if they record a victory and Borussia Dortmund fail beat Fortuna Dusseldorf. They'll be playing on double revenge after losing 2-1 in the reverse fixture earlier this season and taking a 3-0 beating at home last season. Bayern have been red hot since the break and they've won 13 straight games in all competitions, more often then not by two goals or more. Mönchengladbach on the other hand have won just one of their last four while losing two, including a 1-0 setback to Freiburg last time out. 10* play on Bayern Munich -1.25 *half stake back if Bayern Munich win by 1 goal. |
|||||||
06-11-20 | Betis v. Sevilla -105 | Top | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 30 h 12 m | Show |
THURSDAY LA LIGA BOOKIE BREAKER - BETIS @ SEVILLA *TOP PLAY* Sevilla and Betis will restart the Spanish La Liga season at Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán in Sevilla on Thursday. Sevilla won the first meeting of the season 2-1 on the road, and I fully expect them to complete the season sweep here at home. Sevilla enters the contest third in the league, and while catching the top 2 teams (Real Madrid and Barcelona) will be tough, with five teams right on their heels they still need to rack up wins to not drop down the standings. Betis on the other hand are stuck in the middle of the table, with no shot at Europa spots but also not in risk of relegation. 10* play on Sevilla. |
|||||||
06-07-20 | VfL Wolfsburg +106 v. SV Werder Bremen | Top | 1-0 | Win | 106 | 6 h 53 m | Show |
SUPER EARLY 7 AM ET - GAME OF THE WEEK (SOCCER) - TOP RATED BUNDESLIGA SIDE Wolfsburg have split their four game since the restart of the German Bundesliga. Last time out they took a 2-1 loss to Frankfurt, but I expect them to bounce back here against a Werder Bremen side that has the worst home record in the league (1-3-10). Wolfsburg on the other hand own the sixth best road record and won't lack motivation as they would move past Hoffenheim for a Europa League spot. 10* play on Wolfsburg. |
|||||||
06-05-20 | Borussia Monchengladbach -125 v. SC Freiburg | Top | 0-1 | Loss | -125 | 29 h 53 m | Show |
FRIDAY AFTERNOON SOCCER ACTION - BUNDESLIGA BOOKIE BREAKER TOP PLAY Borussia Monchengladbach are coming off a 4-1 trouncing of Union Berlin and they've scored eight goals in four games since the restart. Freiburg on the other hand have two draws and two losses while conceding six goals since the restart. Monchengladbach sit fourth in the standigns, just two points behind Leipzig in third while Freiburg have very little to play for at this point. I expect Monchengladback to roll over the home team in this one. 10* play on Borussia Monchengladbach. |
|||||||
06-03-20 | Eintracht Frankfurt v. SV Werder Bremen OVER 2.5 | Top | 3-0 | Win | 100 | 10 h 24 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (SOCCER) - TUESDAY AFTERNOON BUNDESLIGA TOTAL Werder Bremen are in dire need of points as they enter Tuesday second-to-last in the Bundesliga standings. Their games have seen an average of 3.2 goals per game and they're 19-9 to the over (2.5 goals). Eintrach Frankfurt are 22-6 to the over on the season with an average of 3.5 goals per game and I think they'll go for the win, sitting just five points above the relegation zone. I think we'll see a wide open and high-scoring contest as neither team is likely to settle for the draw. 10* play on OVER 2.5. |

05-30-20 | FC Augsburg v. Hertha Berlin -109 | Top | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 7 h 27 m | Show |
GAME OF THE MONTH (SOCCER) - TOP RATED SATURDAY PLAY Hertha Berlin put up a good fight to earn a 2-2 draw at RB Leipzig last time out. They had opened the restart with back-to-back wins (3-0, 4-0) prior to that outing and I think they'll win easy again in this one. The visiting Augsburg are coming off a goalless draw at home to bottom-of-the-table side Paderborn, and going on the road where they've lost eight of their 14 road games on the season won't make things any easier. 10* play on Hertha Berlin. |
|||||||
05-27-20 | Hertha Berlin v. Lokomotive Leipzig -1.5 | Top | 2-2 | Loss | -105 | 3 h 52 m | Show |
HERTHA BERLIN @ RB LEIPZIG *TOP PLAY* Leipzig are coming off a lopsided 5-0 triumph over Mainz and 13 of their 15 wins the league this season have come by two goals or more. Hertha Berlin defated Union Berlin in the Berlin-derby last time out but are still stuck in no-mans-land in the table with little to play for. Leipzig on the other hand have plenty of motivation as they're in third place, just two points behind Dortmund. 10* play on RB Leipzig -1.5. |
|||||||
05-26-20 | Borussia Monchengladbach -114 v. SV Werder Bremen | Top | 0-0 | Loss | -114 | 51 h 52 m | Show |
TOP RATED BUNDESLIGA BOOKIE BREAKER - TUESDAY ACTION Borussia Monchengladbach took a 3-1 loss to Leverkusen last time out, a result that saw Leverkusen overtake Monchengladbach for fourth spot in the table. I like Monchengladbach to bounce back here against a Werder Bremen team that is second to last in the league and with just five points and nine losses in their 12 Bundesliga home games this season. They have dropped each of their last five at home while scoring just one goal. Monchengladbach have the fifth best road record in the league and they are undefeated through the last nine head-to-head matchups with Bremen. 10* play on Monchengladbach. |
|||||||
05-24-20 | Fortuna Dusseldorf v. 1. FC Koln -128 | Top | 2-2 | Loss | -128 | 32 h 27 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (SOCCER) - EARLY SUNDAY MORNING BUNDESLIGA ACTION FC Koln failed to hold on to a 2-0 lead against Mainz in the restart of Bundesliga, conceding two consecutive goals for a 2-2 draw. I like them to come back strong and keep focus the whole game here against Fortuna Dusseldorf. Koln lost the first meeting of the season 2-0 at Dusseldorf which sets up a revenge spot. Addtionally, they're much stronger at home than on the road while Dusseldorf have picked up just 10 points in their 13 away games on the season. Koln have a strong offense and they'll face a decimated Fortuna team that will have to do without suspended defender Kaan Ayhan. No other team in Bundesliga has scored fewer goals than Fortuna this season, and I don't see how the visitors will be able to keep up with the home team. 10* play on FC Koln. |
|||||||
05-16-20 | Schalke 04 +1 v. Borussia Dortmund | Top | 0-4 | Loss | -108 | 73 h 39 m | Show |
SCHALKE 04 @ DORTMUND BUNDESLIGA *TOP PLAY* This game will be played behind closed doors with no fans in the stadium. Dortmund is no doubt the better team, but without the support of the home town crowd I think this Revierderby game will be a lot closer than most think. The first meeting of the season was a goalless draw and I expect this one to go down to the wire as well. Additionally, the home team is expected to be without key pieces like Marco Reus, Axel Witsel and Emre Can. 10* play on Schalke 04 +1. |
|||||||
03-11-20 | Knicks v. Hawks -4.5 | Top | 136-131 | Loss | -109 | 21 h 51 m | Show |
WEDNESDAY TOP RATED NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Hawks are 20-12 ATS in all home games on the season and 5-2 SU and ATS as home favorites, including a 140-135 win over the Knicks on Feb 9. They've had a day off since defeating Charlotte in double overtime on Monday while the New York Knicks were in action last night when they took a 122-115 loss at Washington. The Knicks are 2-7 ATS when playing on back-to-back nights this season and 2-5-1 ATS in their last eight games as a road underdog. I don't think the visitors will stand much of a chance in this one. 10* play on Atlanta Hawks. |
|||||||
03-10-20 | Celtics v. Pacers UNDER 215.5 | Top | 114-111 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 17 m | Show |
GAME OF THE MONTH (NBA) - TOP RATED TOTAL *MAJOR WAGER* The Boston Celtics have allowed just 102 points per game over their last two contests, but they still lost both averaging 95 ppg. Bad time to run into an Indiana Pacers team that boasts a top 5 scoring defense while holding opponents to 105.4 ppg home at Bankers Life Fieldhouse. One of the few teams playing better D than the Pacers are the Celtics, limiting opponents to 106.8 ppg overall on the season. The Celtics are 21-13 to the under in games with a total of fewer than 118 points. 10* play on UNDER. |
|||||||
03-09-20 | St. Mary's v. BYU -4 | Top | 51-50 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 54 m | Show |
LATE NIGHT NCAAB BOOKIE BREAKER *TOP PLAY* The St. Mary's Gaels and the BYU Cougars have split two close games this season, but I like BYU to win and cover the spread in this West Coast Conference Tournament semifinal matchup in Las Vegas Monday night. The Gaels needed double-overtime to get past Pepperdine on Saturday while BYU put an 81-64 beating on that same Pepperdine team last time out on Feb 29. BYU should have plenty of energy saved up for this one while heavy legs could become an issue for the Gaels. The Gaels are 2-5-1 ATS in their last eight games overall and 5-13 ATS in their last 18 games as an underdog while the Cougars are 15-6 ATS in their last 21 games overall and 12-5 ATS in their last 17 games as a favorite. 10* play on BYU. |
|||||||
03-08-20 | Tampa Bay Vipers v. Los Angeles Wildcats UNDER 42 | Top | 34-41 | Loss | -110 | 20 h 30 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (XFL) - TOP RATED TOTAL *MAJOR WAGER* The Tampa Bay Vipers are coming off a 25-0 shutout victory over the DC Defenders. They limited their opponent to 107 yards of offense in the triumph, and here they'll face a Los Angeles team that dropped a hard-fought contest 17-14 against the New York Guardians at Met Life Stadium last Saturday. The Vipers have scored the lowest amount of touchdowns (7) of all the eight teams in the league, but they've also only allowed nine, which is tied for second-best. Coming into Week 5, the under had hit 11 times in 16 games. I expect this to be another relatively low-scoring contest. 10* play on UNDER. |
|||||||
03-08-20 | Magic +9.5 v. Rockets | Top | 126-106 | Win | 100 | 20 h 26 m | Show |
GAME OF THE YEAR (NBA) - TOP RATED SIDE *MAJOR WAGER ALERT* The Houston Rockets have dropped three straight games following a nine-point loss as an 8.5-point favorite at Charlotte on Saturday. They're just 1-5 ATS in their last six games playing on zero days rest, and I think they're asked to cover way too many points in this matchup with Orlando. The Magic put a 132-118 beating on Minnesota last time out and they need all wins they can get as they're trying to hold on to a playoff spot in the East. Magic are 14-6 ATS in the last 20 meetings. Magic are 7-2 ATS in the last 9 meetings in Houston. 10* play on Orlando Magic. |
|||||||
03-08-20 | Connecticut -6.5 v. Tulane | Top | 80-76 | Loss | -109 | 12 h 36 m | Show |
TOP RATED NCAAB PLAY OF THE DAY I like the Connecticut Huskies to come through as a favorite over the Tulane Green Wave in their AAC regular-season finale on Sunday. The Green Wave sit dead last in the conference at 4-13 while Connecticut owns a decent 9-8 record. The Huskies have closed out the season on fire, coming off four straight wins including a 77-71 upset win over Houston last time out. They've scored an average of 80 ppg during that winning streak while Tulane's offense is one of the worst in the nation with just 68.1 ppg on average throughout the season. While Connecticut was in action just three days ago, Tulane last played on Feb 29, a 74-67 OT loss to Memphis. I would not be surprised if the home team might take a while to get up to speed again, and by that time the Huskies should have already built up a sizable lead. UConn won the first matchup this year in Storrs 67-61, and I expect an even larger victory margin in this one. 10* play on Connecticut. |
|||||||
03-08-20 | Everton v. Chelsea -106 | Top | 0-4 | Win | 100 | 24 h 11 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (SOCCER): TOP RATED PREMIER LEAGUE SIDE Chelsea have only won one of their last six league games, but they're coming off a confidence-boosting 2-0 triumph over Liverpool in the FA Cup and I think they'll come through with a win against Everton on Sunday. The Toffees have lost eight of their 14 away league games and they've not held an away league clean sheet since the opening day of the season. With only 10 games left of the season they're stuck in the middle of the table with little to play for while Chelsea are in a tight race for the last Champions League spot with seven teams within six points behind them. Additionally, this is a revenge game for the Blues after dropping the first meeting of the season 3-1 at Goodison Park back in December. 10* play on Chelsea. |
|||||||
03-07-20 | North Carolina v. Duke OVER 152.5 | Top | 76-89 | Win | 100 | 12 h 34 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (NCAAB) - TOP RATED ACC TOTAL The North Carolina Tar Heels have scored 85+ points in three straight games and they're 5-1 to the over in their last six. As for the Duke Blue Devils, they're coming off an 88-69 triumph over NC State and five of their last six games have gone over the total. Duke is 13-4 to the over in all home games on the season and 5-2 to the over when the total is 150 to 159.5 points. 10* play on OVER. |
|||||||
03-07-20 | UCLA +4 v. USC | Top | 52-54 | Win | 100 | 14 h 29 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (NCAAB): TOP RATED PAC-12 SIDE The red hot UCLA Bruins head into this contest riding a seven-game winning streak and they're 5-1-1 ATS during that stretch and winning four of those seven straight up as underdogs. On the season, the Bruins are 8-4 ATS as an underdog and I think they'll keep it close here in this Pac-12 matchup with the USC Trojans. Note that at 12-5, UCLA is battling Oregon for the Pac-12 title while USC is "only" 10-7 in conference play. The Trojans are coming off back-to-back wins, but they had lost two consecutive games prior to the current winning streak and they're 9-8 ATS as a favorite this season. 10* play on UCLA Bruins. |
|||||||
03-06-20 | Missouri State -1.5 v. Indiana State | Top | 78-51 | Win | 100 | 13 h 11 m | Show |
TGIF MVC TOURNAMENT *TOP PLAY* The Missouri State Bears have covered the spread in seven of their last eight overall, the lone exception a blowout loss at Valparaiso. Last time out they put an 84-59 beating on Southern Illinois and they're 9-0 ATS after allowing 60 points or fewer this season. As for Indiana State, while the team is coming off four straight wins (3-0-1 ATS), note that it took a 71-58 loss to Missouri State in the last meeting on Feb 16. I like the Bears to come through in this Missouri Valley Conference quarterfinal matchup. 10* play on Missouri State. |
|||||||
03-06-20 | Magic -2 v. Wolves | Top | 132-118 | Win | 100 | 15 h 48 m | Show |
MAGIC @ WOLVES TGIF *TOP PLAY* The Orlando Magic will be looking to put an end to a three-game losing streak when visiting Minnesota Friday night. They've covered the number in five of their last six games overall and they're 6-2 ATS in their last eight games as a road favorite. They'll face a Timberwolves team that is just 8-22 SU home at Target Center and 1-6 ATS in its last seven games as a home underdog. Unlike Orlando who is currently holding down the No. 8 seed in the East, the Wolves season is all but over already, and I like the visitors to come through in this one. 10* play on Orlando Magic. |
|||||||
03-05-20 | Raptors -10.5 v. Warriors | Top | 121-113 | Loss | -110 | 25 h 44 m | Show |
LATE NIGHT RAPTORS @ WARRIORS *TOP PLAY* This looks like a good spot to back the Toronto Raptors who will be looking to build on the momentum of a 123-114 win at Phoenix. The triumph put an end to a three-game losing streak for the Raptors, and they need to go on a run to keep the other contenders at bay at the top of the division. As for the Golden State Warriors, while they've won two of their last three, the team they put on the floor those days lacks talent. Big letdown spot for the Warriors in this one following a 16-point win over Denver, and we can note that Golden State is just 4-8 ATS off an upset win as an underdog and 11-19 ATS in all home games this season. 10* play on Toronto Raptors. |
|||||||
03-04-20 | Wizards +7.5 v. Blazers | Top | 104-125 | Loss | -105 | 14 h 12 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (NBA) - TOP RATED SIDE *MAJOR WAGER ALERT* The Washington Wizards took a 133-126 loss at Sacramento last night. They're however 7-1 ATS in the second leg of a back-to-back set this season, and I think they're catching way too many points here against a Portland team that is 2-6 ATS in its last eight overall. Additionally, note that while the Blazers are coming off a 23-point win at Orlando, they're just 1-5-1 ATS in their last seven games following a straight up win of more than 10 points. 10* play on Washington Wizards. |
|||||||
03-02-20 | Jazz v. Cavs UNDER 219 | Top | 126-113 | Loss | -109 | 18 h 8 m | Show |
TOP RATED NBA TOTAL PLAY OF THE DAY *MAJOR WAGER* The Utah Jazz have struggled on the defensive end lately and they were forced to put up a ton of points in order to snap a four-game skid with a 129-119 win over Washington last time out. Facing the Cleveland Cavaliers could be just what the doctor ordered to get back on track, considering the Cavs average just 106.5 ppg (26th) and have been held to 104 points in back-to-back losses. Both teams rank in the bottom-third for pace (the number of possessions a team uses per game) and while this will be the first meeting of the season, note that the under is 6-0-1 in the last 7 meetings. 10* play on UNDER. |
|||||||
03-01-20 | Lakers -2.5 v. Pelicans | Top | 122-114 | Win | 100 | 13 h 34 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (NBA): TOP RATED SUNDAY NIGHT SIDE *MAJOR WAGER* This looks like a great spot to back an angry LA Lakers team who will be looking for a quick bounce back following a 105-88 loss to Memphis on Saturday. They face a Pelicans team that has won six of its last eight straight-up (5-3 ATS), but none of those games were against a team like the Lakers. There is a risk that LeBron James will get the night off in the second game of a back-to-back, but note that the Lakers are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games playing on 0 days rest and 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games as a favorite. 10* play on Los Angeles Lakers. |
|||||||
03-01-20 | Pistons v. Kings UNDER 217 | Top | 100-106 | Win | 100 | 20 h 37 m | Show |
PISTONS @ KINGS NBA TOTAL *TOP PLAY* The Detroit Pistons have struggled to put points on the board lately and they had averaged just 98.4 ppg through a seven-game slide prior to a 113-11 win at Phoenix last time out. As for the Sacramento Kings, they defeated Memphis 104-101 last time out and they've held three of their last five opponents to 103 points or fewer. Under is 8-3 in Kings last 11 vs. a team with a losing straight up record. Under is 9-4 in the last 13 meetings. Under is 13-3-1 in the last 17 meetings in Sacramento. 10* play on UNDER. |

03-01-20 | Flyers -110 v. Rangers | Top | 5-3 | Win | 100 | 4 h 20 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (NHL) - FLYERS @ RANGERS *TOP PLAY* The Philadelphia Flyers will enter Madison Square Garden looking for a sixth straight win. They'll face a NY Rangers team which had been almost equally hot with five straight triumphs prior to a 5-2 loss at Philadelphia Friday night. I think that loss took a lot of air out of this Rangers team, and they've had big troubles solving the Flyers lately dropping eight of the last nine meetings. I think the price is right to back the visitors in this one. 10* play on Philadelphia Flyers. |
|||||||
02-29-20 | DePaul v. Butler -8 | Top | 42-60 | Win | 100 | 11 h 54 m | Show |
BIG EAST BOOKIE BREAKER *TOP PLAY* The Butler Bulldogs are heading into the weekend off three consecutive losses, but I like their chances of not only winning straight up but also covering the number in this matchup with DePaul. This is a big bounce back spot for Butler who took an 81-59 beating at No. 11 Creighton last time out and it'll also look to avenge a 13-point loss at DePaul last month. The Blue Demons have won just two Big East games all season and they've covered the spread in only one of their last six games. 10* play on Butler. |
|||||||
02-28-20 | Nuggets v. Clippers UNDER 218.5 | Top | 103-132 | Loss | -104 | 25 h 40 m | Show |
GAME OF THE MONTH (NBA): TOP RATED NUGGETS @ CLIPPERS TOTAL The Denver Nuggets and the LA Clippers are involved in a battle for the second seed in the Western Conference and I expect a playoff-like and low-scoring affair when they clash at Staples Center Friday night. Additionally, both teams are more than capable of playing lockdown defense. The Clippers have allowed an average of just 94.5 ppg over their last two games while Denver held Detroit to 98 points last time out. Under is 4-1 in Clippers last 5 games as a home favorite and 7-1 in Nuggets last 8 games as a road underdog. 10* play on UNDER. |
|||||||
02-28-20 | Georgia Southern +5.5 v. Georgia State | Top | 79-70 | Win | 100 | 18 h 36 m | Show |
FRIDAY NIGHT SUN BELT BOOKIE BREAKER *TOP PLAY* The Georgia Southern Eagles have won four of their last six games and put an 81-61 beating on Utah as a 5-point road underdog last time out. They average a healthy 75.1 ppg on the season, and I like them to keep even pace with the Georgia State Panthers in this one. Georgia State is coming off back-to-back road losses SU and ATS, and while it won by five points at Georgia Southern last month, note that it was losing straight up for most of the game and only managed to pull away late. 10* play on Georgia Southern. |
|||||||
02-27-20 | Illinois -6.5 v. Northwestern | Top | 74-66 | Win | 100 | 11 h 52 m | Show |
THURSDAY NIGHT BIG TEN BOOKIE BREAKER *TOP PLAY* The Northwestern Wildcats are just 4-10 SU (3-11 ATS) at home. Last time out they took an 83-57 beating by Minnesota here at Welsh-Ryan Arena and they're 3-11 ATS in their last 14 games following a double-digit loss at home. As for the Illinois Fighting Illini, they're coming off back-to-back triumphs, including a road win at Penn State. Illinois is 6-2 ATS in its last eight road games vs. a team with a losing home record and needs a win here to stay in the hunt for its first Big Ten regular-season title in 15 years. 10* play on Illinois. |

02-26-20 | Clippers -5.5 v. Suns | Top | 102-92 | Win | 100 | 17 h 14 m | Show |
LATE NIGHT CLIPPERS @ SUNS *TOP PLAY* The LA Clippers snapped a three-game skid with a dominant 124-97 triumph over Memphis Monday night. They're 27-13 ATS in their last 40 games as a road favorite and I like them to win and cover in this matchup at Phoenix. Note that the Suns are a terrible 5-15-1 ATS in their last 21 home games and in a tough spot with this being their fourth game in six nights, the previous three on the road. Last time out the Suns won 131-11 at Utah and they're just 1-5 ATS in their last six games following a straight up win of more than 10 points. 10* play on Los Angeles Clippers. |

02-26-20 | Rutgers v. Penn State -6 | Top | 64-65 | Loss | -104 | 15 h 55 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (NCAAB): MIKE'S TOP RATED BIG TEN TOTAL The Rutgers Scarlet Knights are an underdog at Penn State Nittany Lions Wednesday night, and for a good reason in my opinion. The Lions are third in the Big Ten despite back-to-back losses and can simply not afford to drop this one. On the season, Penn State is 12-2 (8-5-1 ATS) as a home favorite it'll be looking to avenge a double-digit loss to Rutgers on the road last month. Penn State is holding opponents to 62.0 ppg home at Bryce Jordan Center, and while Rutgers is holding opponents to 62.2 ppg overall, note that the number jumps to 69.5 ppg allowed on the road where the team is just 1-7 SU. 10* play on Penn State. |

02-25-20 | Celtics -5 v. Blazers | Top | 118-106 | Win | 100 | 14 h 22 m | Show |
TUESDAY NIGHT NBA BOOKIE BREAKER *TOP PLAY* The Portland Trail Blazers are just 23-33-2 ATS on the season and playing without injured superstar Damian Lillard doesn't help matters. I don't see them keeping up a Boston Celtics team that is 34-20-2 ATS on the season and looking to bounce back from a narrow loss at LA Lakers last time out. The Celtics are 11-5 ATS off a loss on the season, including perfect 4-0 ATS on the road off a road loss. 10* play on Boston Celtics. |
|||||||
02-24-20 | Magic v. Nets UNDER 212.5 | Top | 115-113 | Loss | -102 | 17 h 16 m | Show |
MONDAY NIGHT MAGIC @ NETS TOTAL *TOP PLAY* The Orlando Magic are 29-24-1 to the under overall this season, no surprise considering their top-ranked scoring defense in combination with one of the worst scoring averages in the league. Additionally, they play at a very slow tempo (only 100.1 possessions/game) and I think they'll be allowed to dictate a slow pace for this contest. Note that the under is 22-7-2 in Magic's last 31 vs. a team with a losing straight up record and 11-5 in their last 16 games playing on two days rest. The Nets are coming off a 115-86 triumph at Charlotte; under is 7-2 in their last nine games following a straight up win of more than 10 points and 7-1 to the under in their last eight overall. 10* play on UNDER. |
|||||||
02-24-20 | West Virginia v. Texas +5.5 | Top | 57-67 | Win | 100 | 11 h 18 m | Show |
TOP RATED WEST VIRGINIA @ TEXAS NCAAB PLAY OF THE DAY, The West Virginia Mountaineers have dropped four of their last five straight up and they're 2-6 ATS in their last eight games. On the season, they're 2-4 SU and 1-5 ATS in true road games, and I think they're asked to cover way too many points against the Longhorns in Austin, Texas Monday night. Texas is coming off a solid 70-59 victory as a 5.5-point underdog at Kansas State to make it back-to-back wins. They've played terrific defense in recent weeks and should be to able to fend off the slumping Mountaineers. 10* play on Texas Longhorns. |
|||||||
02-23-20 | Oilers -134 v. Kings | Top | 4-2 | Win | 100 | 13 h 23 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (NHL): MIKE'S TOP RATED MONEYLINE MASSACRE The Edmonton Oilers are in need of a win after dropping back-to-back games, most recently a 5-3 home loss to Minnesota. They're 9-3 in their last 12 after allowing five goals or more in their previous game and I like the price we get on the Oilers at LA on Sunday. The Kings have played fairly well lately with three wins in their last five games, but this is a tough spot following a 2-1 OT loss to Colorado on Saturday. With the Kings 5-11 in their last 16 games following OT on the previous day and 2-6 in their last eight home games, I'll recommend fading the home team in this one. 10* play on Edmonton Oilers. |
|||||||
02-23-20 | Pacers v. Raptors UNDER 219.5 | Top | 81-127 | Win | 100 | 14 h 39 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (NBA): MIKE'S TOP RATED SUNDAY NIGHT TOTAL The Indiana Pacers won 106-98 at New York in their first game back from the All-Star break while the Toronto Raptors defeated Phoenix 118-101. Two relatively low-scoring affairs, and I think the same will hold true for this one. The Raptors own the fourth-best scoring defense in the league allowing just 106.5 ppg, and Indiana is also in the top 10 holding opponents to 107.4 ppg. Under is 30-12-1 in Pacers last 43 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600. 10* play on UNDER. |

02-23-20 | DC Defenders -8 v. Los Angeles Wildcats | Top | 9-39 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 9 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (XFL): MIKE'S DC DEFENDERS @ LA WILDCATS BEST BET The DC Defenders will put their undefeated 2-0 record to the test against the winless Los Angeles Wildcats on Sunday. Last time out they put a 27-0 beating on the New York Guardians, and the Wildcats defense is banged up and just plain bad (62 points allowed in two games) while the Defenders offense is humming under signal-caller Cardale Jones who leads the XFL with 511 yards passing. 10* play on DC Defenders. |
|||||||
02-23-20 | Butler v. Creighton -5.5 | Top | 59-81 | Win | 100 | 13 h 59 m | Show |
BIG EAST BOOKIE BREAKER *TOP PLAY* The Creighton Bluejays are red hot with eight straight-up wins in their last nine games and a 7-2 ATS record. That stretch includes impressive triumph over No. 19 Marquette, No. 13 Villanova and No. 14 Seton Hall and I think they'll win and cover the spread against Butler on Sunday. The Bulldogs have not been at their best lately with just two wins in their last six games (1-4-1 ATS). This game means a lot for the Bluejays who sit only one game out of first place in the Big East, and it's also a revenge game after a 14-point loss at Hinkle Fieldhouse last month. 10* play on Creighton. |
|||||||
02-22-20 | Mavs -5.5 v. Hawks | Top | 107-111 | Loss | -109 | 20 h 60 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (NBA): MIKE'S TOP RATED SATURDAY NIGHT SIDE The Dallas Mavericks will be playing on the second day of a back-to-back situation, but I don't think they'll have any issues with Atlanta after rolling over Orlando Friday night. The Hawks have had just one day off since an upset win over Miami Thursday night and we can note that the Mavs are a solid 20-6 in all road games this season and 13-3-1 ATS in their last 17 games as a road favorite. Atlanta is 7-17 when playing against a team with a winning record, and it's one of the worst defensive teams in the league while Dallas has the third-best points per game average. 10* play on Dallas Mavericks. |
|||||||
02-22-20 | Clemson -4 v. Boston College | Top | 82-64 | Win | 100 | 19 h 43 m | Show |
GAME OF THE MONTH (NCAAB): MIKE'S TOP RATED SIDE FOR FEBRUARY The Boston College Eagles have covered the spread in four of their last six overall, but they came up short in a 78-65 loss at Virginia last time out and I don't see them keeping pace with Clemson in this Saturday night matchup. The Tigers have averaged 83 ppg in impressive back-to-back upset wins over Pittsburgh and Louisville and they're one of the best defensive teams in the ACC while Boston College averages only 64.9 ppg on the season. We can also note that Clemson has had six days to prepare for this contest while Boston College last played two days ago and this will be the Eagles' third game in just seven days. Look for Clemson to run away with this game. 10* play on Clemson Tigers. |

02-22-20 | Manchester City -133 v. Leicester | Top | 1-0 | Win | 100 | 25 h 19 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (SOCCER): MIKE'S TOP RATED EPL *BEST BET* We have a big game on our hands in the Premier League this Saturday with second-placed Manchester City visiting third-placed Leicester. Man City has won five of the last six meetings and I think we're getting a more than fair price on the visitors in this one. Leicester has just one win in their last five EPL games and Man C have won seven of their last nine road games all competitions combined. We can also note that Leicester is shorthanded in the central midfield with three holding midfielders (Wilfred Ndidi, Hamza Choudhury and Nampalys Mendy) missing for this contest. 10* play on Manchester City. |

02-21-20 | Nuggets +2 v. Thunder | Top | 101-113 | Loss | -113 | 16 h 40 m | Show |
TGIF NUGGETS @ THUNDER BOOKIE BREAKER *TOP PLAY* The Denver Nuggets took an OT loss to the Lakers in their last game before the All-Star break. They're 9-1-2 ATS in their last 12 games following a straight up loss and I like them to bounce back here against an OKC Thunder team they've dominated lately, winning nine of the past 10 meetings and they're 10-1 ATS in the last 11 meetings. The Thunder have been money against the spread this season, but not as a home favorite and they're 2-8 ATS last 10 as a home favorite. The Nuggets meanwhile are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games as a road underdog. 10* play on Denver Nuggets. |
|||||||
02-20-20 | Heat -6 v. Hawks | Top | 124-129 | Loss | -109 | 15 h 14 m | Show |
TOP RATED HEAT @ HAWKS BOOKIE BREAKER The Miami Heat headed into the All-Star break as losers of four of their last five, all on the road. They've been better at home than on the away from home all season, but I think they'll get the job done and win and cover when visiting Atlanta Thursday night. Note that the Hawks have allowed 127+ points in three straight games and Miami put up 135 points in an OT win over Atlanta back in December. Last time out, the Heat took a 116-101 loss at Utah. They've had more than a week to mull it over and are 9-2 ATS in their last 11 games following a straight-up loss of more than 10 points. Additionally, we can note that the Heat are 9-1-1 ATS in their last 11 Thursday games while the Hawks are 4-10 ATS in their last 14 Thursday games. 10* play on Miami Heat. |

02-19-20 | Syracuse v. Louisville -9.5 | Top | 66-90 | Win | 100 | 16 h 13 m | Show |
MIDWEEK MADNESS ACC ANNIHILATOR *TOP PLAY* The No. 11 Louisville Cardinals are coming off back-to-back losses, first at Georgia Tech and most recently an embarrassing setback at Clemson. They had reeled off 10 straight triumphs before that and defeated Virginia 80-73 last time out home at KFC Yum! Center to improve to 6-3-1 ATS in their last 10 as a home favorite. The Orange have lost four of their last five and took an 80-77 loss at FSU on Saturday. They're 1-5 ATS after allowing 80 points or more and this won't be easy against a Louisville team that averages 77.2 ppg in their own building and ranks 11th in the nation for 3-point shooting home & away combined. The home team is 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings between these two teams and I think the cardinals will put a real beating on Syracuse Wednesday night. 10* play on Louisville Cardinals. |
|||||||
02-18-20 | Maple Leafs v. Penguins -132 | Top | 2-5 | Win | 100 | 11 h 13 m | Show |
NHL MONEYLINE MASSACRE *TOP PLAY* The Penguins are a solid 21-5-4 at home on the season and they've won 10 of the last 14 matchups with the Leafs at Pittsburgh. Toronto is 16-13-1 on the road but 3-8 in its last 11 games as a road underdog. This is a tough spot for the Maple Leafs who have played a lot of hockey lately, and we can note that they are 2-11 in their last 13 in the third game of a 3-in-4 situation and 0-8 in their last 8 in the fourth game of a 4-in-6 situation. While Toronto has split its last six games, Pittsburgh is coming off a pair of dominant outings and I like the Pens to get the job done in this one. 10* play on Pittsburgh Penguins. |

02-17-20 | Iowa State v. Kansas UNDER 145.5 | Top | 71-91 | Loss | -115 | 18 h 21 m | Show |
MONDAY NIGHT CBB BOOKIE BREAKER TOTAL *TOP PLAY* The Kansas Jayhawks put an 81-70 beating on Oklahoma last time out, but I predict a much lower-scoring contest when they host the Iowa State Cyclones Monday night. The Jayhawks have a truly elite defense that ranks eighth in the nation for points allowed, and I think they'll clamp down on the defensive end in this one after a subpar defensive outing against the Sooners. Kansas is 6-2 to the under when the total is 140 to 149.5 points this season and 16-8 to the under overall. The first meeting of the season back in January wasn’t pretty for Iowa State as Kansas put a 79-53 beating on the Cyclones. Iowa State is coming off an 81-52 rout of Texas, but points will be much harder to come by in this one and I expect to see the final score stay under the posted total. 10* on UNDER. |

02-17-20 | Capitals v. Golden Knights OVER 6.5 | Top | 2-3 | Loss | -100 | 13 h 59 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (NHL): MIKE'S TOP RATED WASHINGTON @ VEGAS TOTAL The Washington Capitals are coming off a pair of low-scoring affairs, but they're stil 36-21 to the over on the season and I feel confident that goals will come fast and easy for both teams in this matchup. The Vegas Golden Knights registered a 1-0 victory over the NY Islanders last time out but they're 7-2 to the over in their last nine home games. Over is 5-0 in the last five meetings. 10* play on OVER. |

02-16-20 | Blue Jackets v. Devils UNDER 5.5 | Top | 3-4 | Loss | -125 | 8 h 4 m | Show |
SUNDAY NIGHT NHL TOTAL BOOKIE BREAKER *TOP PLAY* The Columbus Blue Jackets took a 3-1 loss to the NY Rangers Friday night. Four of their last five have gone under the total, and I predict a tight low-scoring affair when they visit the New Jersey Devils Sunday night. The Devils took a 5-2 loss to Carolina last time out, but that was with Louis Domingue in net. Mackenzie Blackwood will be back in net for this one, and he's been red hot this month with two shutouts and just one goal allowed in three starts. As for Columbus, its netminder Elvis Merzlikins has held opponents to a total of six goals in his last five starts. Under is 7-1 in Devils last 8 Sunday games. Under is 5-1 in Blue Jackets last 6 Sunday games. 10* play on UNDER. |
|||||||
02-16-20 | St. Louis BattleHawks v. Houston Roughnecks -7.5 | Top | 24-28 | Loss | -110 | 34 h 46 m | Show |
GAME OF THE WEEK (XFL): MIKE'S TOP RATED WEEK 2 SIDE The Houston Roughnecks opened the season with 37-17 comeback rout of the Los Angeles Wildcats. They dominated both sides of the ball and quarterback P.J. Walker led an offense that totaled 315 yards and averaged 5.7 yards per play. A total of 17,815 fans showed up to help the team overcome an early eight-point deficit, and we can expect a bigger and rowdier home town crowd carrying the home team in this one. While the St. Louis BattleHawks won 15-9 on the road at Dallas Renegades in their season premiere, I think they'll struggle to keep up with Houston's explosive offense. Houston has proved it can play defense as well as offense as it held Los Angeles scoreless in the second half while recording a total of five sacks in the victory. 10* play on Houston Roughnecks. |
|||||||
02-16-20 | Villanova -6 v. Temple | Top | 76-56 | Win | 100 | 12 h 3 m | Show |
SUPER EARLY TOP RATED CBB PLAY OF THE DAY The No. 16 Villanova Wildcats look like a solid road favorite in this non-league contest at Temple on Sunday. Nova is 0-3-1 ATS in its last four games, but at least it snapped an 0-3 SU skid with a 72-71 win against Marquette last time out. Getting a break from the Big East schedule could be just what the team needs, and here it'll face an Owls side that might feel a bit too good about itself after winning three of four. I'm not convinced the Owls will be ready for what Nova will throw at them. The Wildcats are 3-0 SU (2-1 ATS) as road favorites on the season and the favorite is 12-2 ATS in the last 14 head-to-head meetings with Temple. 10* play on Villanova. |
|||||||
02-15-20 | LSU +2.5 v. Alabama | Top | 82-88 | Loss | -109 | 15 h 8 m | Show |
LSU @ ALABAMA SATURDAY CBB *TOP PLAY* The Alabama Crimson Tide have dropped four of their last five games after taking a tough overtime loss to Auburn on Wednesday. They've covered the number in only two of their last six and have had trouble stopping opponents from scoring. That does not bode well for this matchup against a dynamic LSU team that bounced back from road losses at Vanderbilt and Auburn with an 82-79 triumph over Missouri last time out. LSU is 3-0 ATS as a road underdog of 3 points or less or a pick'em on the season and 7-1 ATS in such spots over the last three seasons. Additionally, the Tigers put a 90-76 beating on the Tide as a 5.5-point favorite in Baton Rouge earlier this season. 10* play on LSU Tigers. |
|||||||
02-14-20 | Sharks v. Jets UNDER 6.5 | Top | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 17 h 20 m | Show |
GAME OF THE MONTH (NHL): MIKE'S BEST TOTAL FOR FEBRUARY The San Jose Sharks took a 6-2 loss to Calgary lats time out, and they've scored just 13 goals through their last five games, six of those in win over Edmonton. The Winnipeg Jets took a 4-1 home loss to the Rangers on Tuesday and are scoring just 2.73 gpg at home on the season. At the same time, they've played decent defense lately allowing only 2.4 gpg over their last five contests. The Sharks average 2.41 gpg on the road and under is 9-3 in Sharks last 12 road games and 12-5-1 in Jets last 18 games as a home favorite. Last but not least, this will be the third meeting of the season with the first two going under the total, both Jets wins at San Jose (3-2 & 5-1). 10* play on UNDER. |

02-13-20 | Rangers v. Wild -131 | Top | 4-3 | Loss | -131 | 20 h 45 m | Show |
TOP RATED NHL PLAY OF THE DAY The Minnesota Wild have won four of their last five following an impressive 4-0 triumph over Vegas Tuesday night. They're one of the stronger home teams in the league at 17-8-4 home at Xcel Energy Center where they average 3.24 goals per game and converting at a 27% clip of their power play opportunities. Additionally, the Wild have stepped up their game on the defensive end lately with just nine goals allowed through their last five overall. The visiting New York Rangers have played well lately with five wins through their last seven games. All but two of those seven games were at home though, and I think they'll come up short against a Rangers team that is 13-6 in its last 19 games as a home favorite. 10* play on Minnesota Wild. |

02-13-20 | Thunder v. Pelicans -2 | Top | 123-118 | Loss | -109 | 15 h 53 m | Show |
THURSDAY NIGHT NBA BOOKIE BREAKER *TOP PLAY* The Oklahoma City Thunder are heading to New Orleans off back-to-back losses. They took a 114-106 home loss to San Antonio last time out and I think they'll struggle to contain a New Orleans team that ranks 4th in the league for points per game. The Pelicans are flying high at the moment, winning three in a row and six of their last eight, covering the spread in each win. They're a phenomenal 19-6-1 against the number in their last 26 games overall and 6-2 ATS in their last eight games as a home favorite. We can also note that this contest will mean a lot for the Pels who have dropped the first three head-to-head matchups with OKC this season. 10* play on New Orleans Pelicans. |
