11-04-20 | FC Dallas v. Nashville SC +126 | 1-0 | Loss | -100 | 19 h 26 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Nashville. Dallas is coming off a commanding 3-0 win over Houston on Saturday, but they could suffer a let down here in Nashville mid week. They have failed to score a goal in three matches against Nashville this season. Nashville ranks second in MLS in goals against (19), and they have allowed just six goals in their last 10 matches. The home team appears to have an edge here and I like Nashville to bag a win here. GL, Jesse Schule |

7* |

10-31-20 | Houston Dynamo v. FC Dallas UNDER 3.5 | Top | 0-3 | Win | 100 | 23 h 11 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Under. Both the Houston Dynamo and FC Dallas rank near the bottom of MLS in scoring, and recent head to head meetings have been low scoring. Dallas has failed to score a goal in two of it's last three versus Houston, and the Dynamo have scored just three goals in the last three head to head matches. Dallas has gone under in each of it's last five MLS matches, while Houston has gone under in six of it's last eight overall. It's tough to see these teams combining to score more than three goals. GL, Jesse Schule |

10-27-20 | Inter Milan v. Shakhtar Donetsk OVER 3 | 0-0 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 33 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over. Inter Milan will face Shaktar Donetsk in Champions League play on Tuesday, and the Italian side won by a score of 5-0 at home in the first leg. Shaktar has since won 3-2 at Real Madrid, and between these two teams they have scored a ton of goals in this competition. Inter is coming off a 2-2 draw versus German side Borrussia Monchengladbach, and they have scored 13 goals in five matches in Series A. Shaktar has scored a dozen goals in their last five matches overall, and I fancy them to score a goal or two here in this revenge fixture. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-25-20 | Newcastle United v. Wolverhampton Wanderers -127 | 1-1 | Loss | -127 | 15 h 31 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Wolverhampton Wanderers. The Wolvers will host Newcastle United at Molineux Stadium on Sunday. Wolverhampton has won their last two matches, posting back to back clean sheets. Newcastle is coming off a 4-1 home loss to Manchester United, and the Magpies are known for their shoddy defense. That is particularly true away from home, where they had a -19 goal differential in 19 matches last season. Wolves are undefeated in their last five head to head matches versus Newcastle, and they appear to be on better form heading in Sunday's match. GL,

10-24-20 | Chelsea v. Manchester United OVER 2.75 | 0-0 | Loss | -125 | 35 h 46 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 2.5. Manchester United will play at Old Trafford this weekend, and we are expecting to see plenty of goals. Manchester United has scored nine goals in their last four Premier League matches. Chelsea has scored 13 goals in their last five Premier League matches. Chelsea spent a small fortune in the off season acquiring Timo Werner, Kai Havertz and Hakim Ziyech. Scoring goals hasn't been a problem for Chelsea, but defending has been an issue. They conceded three goals in a 3-3 draw versus Southampton in their last league match. The Red Devils have gone over in five straight matches in all competitions. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-22-20 | AC Milan -119 v. Celtic | Top | 3-1 | Win | 100 | 25 h 16 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on AC Milan. Celtic will be the home team in Thursday's Europa League clash versus Italian Giants AC Milan, but there won't be any fans in attendance. Milan currently sits top of the table in Series A, while Celtic sits second in the Scottish League coming off a 2-0 loss to Rivals Rangers. Celtic will be shorthanded for this match. Scotland international James Forrest and young winger Mikey Johnston are both out with injuries. Midfielder Ryan Christie, Israel international Nir Bitton and defender Hatem Abd Elhamed all tested positive for Covid-19, and it's almost certain they won't be available to face Milan. Celtic has lost four of their last five versus Milan, and I expect history to repeat itself here on Thursday. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-20-20 | Sevilla v. Chelsea OVER 2.5 | 0-0 | Loss | -125 | 10 h 59 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over. Chelsea has stacked their squad with offensive firepower, and after spending a fortune in the transfer market they have certainly scored their fair share of goals. They gave scored 13 times in five matches, but they have also conceded nine goals. Sevilla has been solid on both sides of the ball, and they won last year's Europa League Cup with wins over Manchester United (2-1) and Inter Milan (3-2). I expect to see at least three goals here at Stamford Bridge. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-17-20 | Liverpool v. Everton OVER 3 | Top | 2-2 | Win | 100 | 6 h 28 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Over. The Merseyside Derby has been very one-sided for decades, but this Saturday's match between Liverpool and Everton is a little different. So far it's Everton sitting top of the table in the Premier League, and they have scored 12 goals in just four matches. The defending champions have struggled on defense so far, allowing 11 goals in four matches. They haven't had any trouble scoring goals, with 11 in four matches. I am going to go out on a limb and predict an exact score of 2-2. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-03-20 | Manchester City v. Leeds United OVER 3.5 | 1-1 | Loss | -104 | 3 h 53 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 2.5. Leeds United has had no trouble scoring goals since their return to the Premier League, finding the back of the net eight times in three matches. They haven't had much success stopping opponents from scoring, allowing seven goals in those games. Manchester City has also struggled on defense, coming off an ugly 5-2 loss to Leicester City. This will be just the third Premier League match of the season for City, and they have gone over in four straight matches in all competitions. The over is also 4-1 in their last five matches versus Leeds. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
09-20-20 | Liverpool v. Chelsea OVER 3 | 2-0 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 28 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 2.5 goals. |
|||||||
08-29-20 | Real Salt Lake v. Portland -109 | Top | 4-4 | Loss | -109 | 17 h 42 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Portland. Real Salt Lake may not have the luxury of focusing on football in this match, as the club is mired in controversy. Dell Loy Hansen (club owner) made the following comments about the players decision to boycott their last match: "It's taken a lot of wind out of my sails, what effort I want to put into recruiting players and building a great team," Hansen said. "It just seems that's not a very good path to take." His criticism of the players has not been well received, and he is now facing an MLS investigation into alleged racist remarks. Players are demanding he sell the team. They will be on the road at Portland, facing the champions of the MLS is Back Tournament in Portland. Take the Timbers. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
08-23-20 | Bayern Munich +107 v. Paris Saint-Germain | Top | 1-0 | Win | 107 | 73 h 27 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Bayern Munich. I've been calling Bayern Munich the best team in Europe since the return to play back in May. They have certainly looked the part, winning their last three Champions League matches by a combined score of 15-3. Their 8-2 win over Barcelona will not soon be forgotten. Paris has taken a much different path, needing to rally with two late goals to escape what looked like a sure defeat to Atletico Madrid. Simply put, it seems that Bayern is in a class of it's own, and Paris is unlikely to match them. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
08-17-20 | Shakhtar Donetsk v. Inter Milan OVER 2.75 | 0-5 | Win | 100 | 23 h 20 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 2.5. Inter Milan finished just one point behind Series A Champions Juventus this season, and they scored 81 goals in 38 matches. They are coming off a 2-1 win over German club Bayern Leverkusen, and they will be a favorite in today's matchup versus Shahktar Donetsk. The Ukrainians can certainly score, they have tallied 14 goals while going 4-0-1 in their last five matches. They have also conceded six goals in those games. We've seen the officials quick to call penalties here in recent Europa matches, as was the case in yesterday's match. We expect a high score here in this Semifinal. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
08-16-20 | Manchester United v. Sevilla +0.25 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 7 h 11 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Sevilla +0.5. Manchester United is coming off a 1-0 win over Copenhagen, scoring the game's only goal on a penalty in the 95th minute. They are matched up against a far superior opponent tonight when they play Sevilla in the Semifinals. Only two teams in La Liga (Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid) allowed fewer goals than Sevilla. Opportunities are expected to be far and few between in this match, and I think that favors the defenive minded Spanish club. Take SEVILLA. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
08-15-20 | Olympique Lyonnais v. Manchester City OVER 3 | 3-1 | Win | 100 | 22 h 5 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 2.5. Lyon is coming off a 2-1 loss at Juventus, but they ended up advancing on the virtue of away goals. They face a far more daunting task here against Manchester City, the highest scoring team in the English Premier League. Manchester City scored 102 goals in 38 matches in domestic play this season, however they also allowed 35 goals in those games. I like Manchester City to score 2 or more goals here without posting a clean sheet. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
08-14-20 | Bayern Munich +102 v. Barcelona FC | 8-2 | Win | 102 | 5 h 21 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 2.5. Bayern is coming off a 4-1 win over Chelsea, making it 20 consecutive wins. During that span they have filled the net, scoring a total of 57 goals. They have a challenging draw here in the Champions League knockout round versus Barcelona, and we can expect an exciting match. Barcelona comes in as winners of four of their last five, and they scored three in a win over Napoli in their last match. These teams have played each other four times over the last decade, and all four of those matches saw three or more goals. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
08-10-20 | Bayer Leverkusen v. Inter Milan +115 | 1-2 | Win | 115 | 4 h 23 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Inter Milan. Inter Milan has been very strong since the return to play, pushing Juventus to the brink. They ended up finishing second in the Serie A just a single point behind Juventus. Bayern Leverkusen did not finish strong in the Bundesliga, winning just three of their final seven matches. They slipped all the way to fifth, and they could fall even further next season without Kai Havertz. He is rumored to be heading to Chelsea. Inter has been the stronger team and is in a far better spot to advance in this competition. Take Inter. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
08-08-20 | Chelsea v. Bayern Munich -216 | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 1 h 53 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Bayern. Chelsea is already trailing on aggregate 3-0 after the first leg, and they don't appear to be all that focused on making a run here in the second leg. Three of their top four scorers (Willian, Giroud, Pulisic) are out of the starting lineup. This match should look very much like the first leg that Bayern won 3-0. Take Bayern. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
08-07-20 | Real Madrid +1 v. Manchester City | Top | 1-2 | Push | 0 | 391 h 53 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Real Madrid +1. I had Real Madrid in the first leg, and here is what I said prior to that match: "Manchester City will head into the first leg of this Champions League tie looking to survive with a chance to win the second leg at home at the Etihad in March. Real Madrid is undefeated at home in domestic competition, and they are also undefeated at home in the Champions League. Real Madrid has won this competition seven times, while Manchester City has suffered many disappointments. Madrid is in first place in Spain, with a +26 goal differential, while the Citizens are just the second best team in the Premier Leaague. It will be quite tough for City to come away with a win here, but a close loss with an away goal would still be a solid result." Now that City has a lead on aggregate as well as away goals, they can sit back and play for a draw. The problem is that City isn't a team designed to play defense, and that leaves them vulnerable to an upset. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
08-01-20 | Chelsea v. Arsenal OVER 2.5 | Top | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 8 h 31 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Over 2.5. It was supposed to be an all Manchester Final in the FA Cup (according to the bookmakers), but Chelsea and Arsenal each recorded upsets in the semi finals. Neither of these two clubs are among the top defensive teams in England. Chelsea conceded 54 goals this season, while Arsenal conceded 48. David Luiz broke a Premier League record, conceding the most penalties in a season (5). These teams have a history of playing high scoring games, going over 2.5 in four of their last five matches. Three of those games saw 4+ goals combined. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-28-20 | Cincinnati v. Portland -128 | Top | 1-1 | Loss | -128 | 18 h 21 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the Portland Timbers. After winning their first two games of the group stages, Portland played a 2-2 draw against an LAFC team that was by far the best in MLS last year. They face Cincinnati in this elimination game Tuesday, and Cinci bounced back with a pair of wins after getting blown out by a score of 4-0 in their opening match versus Columbus. This Cincinnati team finished last year with the worst goal differential in MLS (-44). That's twice as bad as the second worst Vancouver (-22). I am not reading too much into their wins against a shorthanded Atlanta team and a Red Bulls squad that outshot them 19-4. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-28-20 | Minnesota United v. Columbus +113 | 1-1 | Loss | -100 | 16 h 59 m | Show | |

07-26-20 | New York v. Toronto FC +130 | 3-1 | Loss | -100 | 16 h 60 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Toronto FC. New York City appeared to be on their way home, but some extraordinary circumstances helped them become the last team to qualify for the knockout round. While their departure may have been delayed, friends and family should rest easy. They should be back in New York soon enough. Toronto has scored an Eastern Conference best nine goals, and they are still undefeated. New York City has scored just one goal in their last five matches, in their only win which came against expansion team Miami. Toronto is 3-0-1 since 2018. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-26-20 | AFC Bournemouth v. Everton OVER 3 | 3-1 | Win | 100 | 6 h 18 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 2.5. Bournemouth comes into the final day of the Premier League season needing a victory to give themselves a chance to avoid relegation. While their fate is not in their own hands, they can take some comfort in the fact that Watford and Aston Villa will be playing tough matches. Given that a draw simply will not do for Bournemouth, expect them to be on attack for a full 90 minutes. This should result in a wide open game with plenty of scoring chances. Four of the last five meetings between these two clubs have resulted in three or more goals. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-23-20 | Vancouver Whitecaps v. Chicago Fire -175 | 2-0 | Loss | -175 | 2 h 59 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Chicago Fire. The Vancouver Whitecaps aren't officially eliminated from the MLS is Back Tournament, but their chances of making up a goal differential to advance are nearly zero. The Whitecaps lost 4-3 to Kansas City, and 3-0 to Seattle. A poor showing here should be expected for a team that finished last in the Western Conference last year with a goal differential of -22. Chicago opened the tournament with a 2-1 win over the same Seattle team that crushed these Whitecaps. There have been plenty of complaints about the bubble life in Orlando, and for a team on the brink of elimination, a trip home might not be a bad result. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-22-20 | Kansas City v. Real Salt Lake +0.5 | 2-0 | Loss | -115 | 8 h 54 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Real Salt Lake. Salt Lake hasn't conceded a goal yet at this tournament, and that really should come as no surprise. Last year LAFC was the only team in MLS to concede fewer goals that Real Salt Lake. A draw would ensure that both these teams advance, so we could see that influence the pace here in this game. It's also worth pointing out that scoreless draws have been somewhat of a trend in the early fixtures, and scoring average in the early matches is far lower than in the evening games. I like the under, and I like Salt Lake to earn at least a draw. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-22-20 | Kansas City v. Real Salt Lake UNDER 3 | 2-0 | Win | 100 | 8 h 46 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Under 3. Salt Lake hasn't conceded a goal yet at this tournament, and that really should come as no surprise. Last year LAFC was the only team in MLS to concede fewer goals that Real Salt Lake. A draw would ensure that both these teams advance, so we could see that influence the pace here in this game. It's also worth pointing out that scoreless draws have been somewhat of a trend in the early fixtures, and scoring average in the early matches is far lower than in the evening games.

07-21-20 | DC United v. Montreal OVER 2.5 | 0-1 | Loss | -130 | 12 h 14 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 2.5. The Montreal Impact will need a win in their final match of the group stages versus DC United, and we should see both teams playing full speed here today. Montreal has been pretty poor defensively under first year head coach Thierry Henry, conceding four goals in a loss to Toronto in their last match. DC United has played to a draw in each of their first two matches, scoring three goals in the process. I expect this game to be a high scoring affair between two teams that really need a result. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-21-20 | New England v. Toronto FC OVER 2.5 | 0-0 | Loss | -125 | 24 h 31 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 2.5. Toronto has had no trouble scoring goals in this tournament so far, with a pair of first half goals in their opening match versus DC United, and then four more in their second match versus Montreal. The problem has been their defense, as they have also conceded five goals in those two matches. They blew a 2-0 lead in the final six minutes against a DC United squad that was down to 10 men. This match versus the New England Revolution may be their most difficult to date, and I expect to see both teams score here. The last time these teams faced off, the result was a 1-1 draw. The previous four meetings all saw three or more goals combined. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-20-20 | Crystal Palace v. Wolverhampton Wanderers -196 | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 5 h 6 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Wolverhampton. While everyone is talking about Manchester United and Chelsea moving up the table, Wolverhamton has quietly been one of the hottest teams in the Premier League. A win here against Crystal Palace could put them level on points with sixth place Tottenham. Palace has nothing really to gain here, already safe from relegation and nowhere to move up to. Palace has failed to score in four of their last five matches, and they lost every one of those games. Another loss seems likely for Palace. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-19-20 | Vancouver Whitecaps v. Seattle Sounders FC -154 | 0-3 | Win | 100 | 62 h 59 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on the Seattle Sounders. The Sounders really need a win here if they want to advance to the round of 16. If Chicago can beat San Jose earlier in the day, that will give Seattle a chance to move on. If the Earthquakes earn points in their match versus Chicago, the Sounders situation really becomes desperate. Vancouver failed to impress in their opening match, jumping out to a 3-1 lead before losing 4-3 to San Jose. The Whitecaps finished dead last in the Western Conference in 2019, with a goal differential of -22. This Vancouver team really struggles defensively, and that's likely going to lead to another loss here in this tournament. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-19-20 | Chelsea v. Manchester United | Top | 3-1 | Loss | -137 | 52 h 51 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Manchester United. The hottest team in England right now is Manchester United. The come into Sunday's FA Cup Semi Final versus Chelsea undefeated in their last 19 matches in all competitions. They have had Chelsea's number winning four of the last five meetings, with one draw. Chelsea has also been moving up the table since the restart, but they have looked awfully sloppy at times. They have lost twice in their last five matches, falling 3-0 to Sheffield United, and 3-2 to West Ham. While Chelsea has a one point lead in the Premier League standings, the goal differential tells a different story. Manchester United is +28 compared to Chelsea's +15. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-18-20 | LA Galaxy v. Los Angeles FC OVER 3 | 2-6 | Win | 100 | 105 h 51 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 2.5. LAFC opened the tournament with a 3-3 draw versus Houston, while the Galaxy lost 2-1 to Portland. We have seen this rivalry yield it's fair share of high scoring games, and I expect to see plenty of scoring here in this game. Last year this series saw both teams going 1-1-1 in three meetings, all of those matches saw at least five goals. LAFC scored a total of 85 goals in 2019, that's 22 more than the second highest scoring team in the MLS that season. This should be the most entertaining game of the tournament so far. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-16-20 | FC Cincinnati v. Atlanta United -200 | 1-0 | Loss | -200 | 100 h 13 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Atlanta United. I bet against Cincinnati in their opening game of the tournament, and here is what I said prior to that game: "The Crew were off to a solid start before the league was paused, and they finished the 2019 season 14 points higher in the standings than the expansion team Cincinnati. This might be an improved Cincinnati team from last season, but they did start the season with a pair of losses before play was stopped. It's tough to imagine that Cincinnati's players believe they can win this tournament, so we aren't expecting them to be the most motivated side we see in Orlando." They went on to lose 4-0 to Columbus, and that should take all the wind out of their sails heading into this match versus Atlanta. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-13-20 | Real Madrid -200 v. Granada | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 34 h 57 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Real Madrid. Madrid and Barcelona continue to battle it out at the top of La Liga, and every point from here on out is crucial. Madrid has been on top form of late, and the opening line here was just too good to pass up for a small wager on a 2-1 favorite, when it should be priced higher. That is evidenced by money continuing to come in on Madrid. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-12-20 | Leicester -137 v. AFC Bournemouth | Top | 1-4 | Loss | -137 | 103 h 20 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Leicester. AFC Bournemouth is facing relegation, so you would think they would have plenty of motivation. That would be true in most circumstances, but with the return to play during a global pandemic, not everyone is putting top priority on football. Given that they have just four matches remaining all against challenging opponents, their chances of avoiding relegation appear to be slim to none. They are winless in their last nine matches, and the only reason they salvaged a draw against Spurs the other day was due to a poor call from VAR. Harry Kane should have had a penalty in the first half, but for some reason VAR controversially ruled no penalty. Leicester is now just one point ahead of Manchester United for the final Champions League spot, so this is a must win. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-12-20 | Arsenal v. Tottenham Hotspur | 1-2 | Loss | -109 | 9 h 28 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Arsenal. Tottenham is a complete mess at the moment, winning just twice in their last 11 matches in all competitions. During that span they have played to a draw four times, and they have scored more than one goal just four times. They host Arsenal, who come in unbeaten in their last five matches. The Gunners have conceded just two goals during in those games. These teams have played to a draw in each of the last two meetings, so the underdog looks like a solid play here in a stadium without fans. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-11-20 | Columbus -106 v. FC Cincinnati | 4-0 | Win | 100 | 48 h 38 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on the Columbus Crew. The Crew come into this tournament widely considered to be a solid dark horse to win outright. The Crew were off to a solid start before the league was paused, and they finished the 2019 season 14 points higher in the standings than the expansion team Cincinnati. This might be an improved Cincinnati team from last season, but they did start the season with a pair of losses before play was stopped. It's tough to imagine that Cincinnati's players believe they can win this tournament, so we aren't expecting them to be the most motivated side we see in Orlando. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-11-20 | New York v. Atlanta United UNDER 3 | 1-0 | Win | 100 | 19 h 14 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Under 3.5. So far in the MLS is back tournament we have yet to see any of the early matches go over the total. Without any exhibition matches prior to the tournament, these players still aren't in game shape. The result has been a scoreless draw, a pair of 1-0 games and a 2-1 win for Orlando when Nani scored the winner in the seventh minute of added time. Atlanta lost prolific goal scorer Joseph Martinez in their first match of the season, and they haven't gone over in any of their last five matches. Four of the last five time these teams have faced each other, one of the two teams failed to score. Two of the last three meetings finished with a score of 1-0. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-11-20 | Atalanta v. Juventus OVER 3 | 2-2 | Win | 100 | 5 h 59 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 2.5. The hottest team in Italy right now isn't Juventus, or Lazio, or Inter Milan. No it's Atalanta that has won 11 in a row. They also lead the Serie A with 85 goals scored and a goal differential of +46. Juventus is comfortably in first place in Serie A, despite losing 4-2 to AC Milan in their last match. They defeated Atalanta by a score of 3-1 in the most recent meeting, and three of the last four meetings have seen 3+ goals combined. This one smells like a 2-2 draw to me. GL, Jesse Schule |

07-09-20 | New England v. Montreal OVER 2.75 | 1-0 | Loss | -116 | 17 h 51 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 2.5. Montreal defeated New England 2-1 early on in the MLS season, and the Revolution look to execute revenge for that loss here in their opening game of the MLS is Back Tournament. There is plenty of firepower on each of these teams, and neither side is known to play strong defensively. They each finished with a negative goal differential in their last full MLS season. Montreal conceded 60 goals in 34 matches in 2019, while New England conceded 57. Montreal has gone over the total in four of their last five matches overall, and we should expect to see 3+ goals scored in this match. GL, Jesse Schule |

07-08-20 | Sampdoria v. Atalanta -1.25 | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 33 h 15 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Atalanta. The hottest team in Italy right now isn't Juventus, or Lazio, or Inter Milan. No it's Atalanta that has won 10 in a row. They also lead the Serie A with 83 goals scored and a goal differential of +44. They host Sampdoria on Wednesday, who have a goal differential of -15. Sampdoria is particularly bad away from home, with an away record of 49-1 with a -11 goal differential. This has all the signs of another blowout win for Atalanta. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-07-20 | Lazio -1.25 v. Lecce | 1-2 | Loss | -115 | 5 h 34 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Lazio. Coming off a loss to AC Milan, Lazio needs to get back on track in order to salvage any hope of catching first place Juventus. They couldn't have asked for a better opponent, as Lecce has conceded a Serie A worst 70 goals. Immobile and Caicedo did not play on the loss to AC Milan, but they are back with fresh legs for this match. We should expect Lazio to win comfortably. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-07-20 | Norwich City v. Watford -146 | Top | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 59 h 16 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Watford. Norwich City will be relegated, there is little doubt about that. The question is who will be joining them. At the bottom of the table you have Bournemouth, Aston Villa and Watford separated by a single point. Watford is winless in their last five matches, with their last win coming by a score of 3-0 over Liverpool. They come into this match needing a win, and their opponent isn't likely to provide much resistance. Norwich has been held scoreless in five of their last six matches, and they have scored the fewest goals in the league this season. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-06-20 | Everton v. Tottenham Hotspur +117 | 0-1 | Win | 117 | 37 h 42 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on the Tottenham Hotspurs. Spurs are coming off a terrible 3-1 loss to Sheffield United. Harry Kane scored a pair of goals in the loss, yet one was erroneously called back by VAR. Everton on the other hand is coming off a 2-1 win over Leicester, in a match where they were awarded a controversial penalty early in the first half. We should expect a spirited effort from Tottenham in this match, and with all their stars back from injury, it's only a matter of time before things start to click. Everton is 0-3-2 in their last five matches versus Spurs. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-05-20 | West Ham United v. Newcastle United OVER 2.5 | 2-2 | Win | 106 | 81 h 49 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 2.5. West Ham is coming off a shocking 3-2 win over Chelsea, putting them three points clear of relegation. Newcastle is also coming off a favorable result, beating Bournemouth by a score of 4-1. We can expect plenty of chances in a match featuring two teams that aren't known for their defending. Newcastle won the last meeting between these teams by a score of 3-2, and I expect a similar score here on Sunday. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-04-20 | AC Milan v. Lazio | 3-0 | Loss | -120 | 64 h 45 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Lazio. The title race is still on in Serie A, with just four points seperating Lazio and Juventus. Lazio needs a win here against AC Milan in order to keep the pressure on Juventus. Lazio has yet to lose at home, with a record of 12-0-3 in 15 matches. They have the second best goal differential in the Serie A (+38) while Milan has conceded one more goal than they have scored. This is a match where I would be wary of a draw, but I can't see Lazio losing here against Milan. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-04-20 | Bayern Munich -1.5 v. Bayer Leverkusen | 4-2 | Win | 100 | 62 h 44 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Bayern Munich. Bayern Munich isn't just the best team in Germany, in my opinion they are the best team in Europe. They have won 16 straight matches in all competitions, and 10 of those wins came by 2+ goals. Bayern Leverkusen was disappointing when the Bundesliga returned, They won three of six matches, but a 2-0 loss to Hertha Berlin in their second to last match ensured they would miss out on the Champions League next season. I don't expect that Munich will have any trouble with Leverkusen in the German Cup Final. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-04-20 | Arsenal +0.5 v. Wolverhampton Wanderers | 2-0 | Win | 100 | 60 h 15 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Arsenal +0.5. Wolverhampton is having a hell of a season, but seeing them listed as favorites against Arsenal makes me think there is a little recency bias at play. Technically a home game for Wolves, but without fans that might not be very significant. These teams have a history of playing close games, with three of the last five head to head meetings ending with a final score of 1-1. Arsenal has won three straight, posting a pair of clean sheets. I like their chances of earning a point. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-04-20 | Crystal Palace v. Leicester -137 | 0-3 | Win | 100 | 58 h 57 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Leicester City. So far Leicester has been unable to capture the magic they seemed to have before play was suspended in March. They are now in a dogfight for a Champions League spot, and desperately in need of a win here versus Crystal Palace. Leicester has scored more than twice as many goals (60) as Palace (28). Leicester won their last match versus Palace by a score of 2-0, and I expect a similar result here in this match. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-04-20 | Brighton & Hove Albion v. Norwich City UNDER 2.5 | 1-0 | Win | 100 | 55 h 57 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Under 2.5. Norwich City appears to be facing imminent relegation, while Brighton looks safe from relegation at the moment. Neither of these two teams have scored a lot of goals this season. Norwich ranks dead last in goals scored with a total of 25 goals in 32 matches. Brighton has failed to score in four of her last five matches, including a pair of scoreless draws. Norwich has also failed to score in four of their last five matches. One goal might be enough to win this match. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-02-20 | Napoli v. Atalanta OVER 2.75 | 0-2 | Loss | -117 | 95 h 23 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 2.5. Atalanta will host Napoli on Thursday, and both these teams come in firing on all cylinders. Atalanta has won eight straight matches, and they lead the Serie A with 80 goals in just 28 matches. Napoli comes in as winners of four of five, and they are also quite capable of scoring goals. The most recent meeting between these teams was a 2-2 draw, and four of the last five meetings have seen at least three goals. Atalanta has been a good bet to go over, with at least three goals scored in each of their last 11 games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-01-20 | Leicester v. Everton | 1-2 | Loss | -100 | 27 h 34 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Leicester +0.5. After struggling in three matches since the restart, we find Leicester as underdogs in this match at Everton. Leicester has just two draws and a loss since the return to play, and they need to right the ship if they want to hold down a spot in the Champions League next season. They have been quite successful in recent matches versus Everton, with a record of 2-0-1 in three meetings in 2019. Everton has only scored twice in four matches since the return to play, and they have scored 21 fewer than Leicester this season. The Toffees are in no mans land in the Premier League table, with nothing to lose and not much to gain. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-30-20 | Luton Town v. Leeds United -1.5 | 1-1 | Loss | -100 | 29 h 38 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Leeds United -1.25. Leeds United is coming off a 3-0 win over Fulham, putting them top of the table. Next up are bottom feeders Luton Town, who come in with the worst goal differential in the League Championship. Leeds has won six of their last seven matches, and they posted a clean sheet in all six of those victories. This appears to be a mismatch of epic proportions, and we should expect Leeds to win by 2+ goals. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-28-20 | Real Madrid -201 v. RCD Espanyol | 1-0 | Win | 100 | 84 h 23 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Real Madrid. The fix is in? That's what Spanish football fans are saying after a string of controversial calls that have gone in favor of Real Madrid in recent matches. Madrid now sits top of the table, tied on points with rivals Barcelona. That makes this match against Espanyol a must win, and anything less than maximum points will open the door for the Catalans. Espanyol sits dead last in La Liga, and has lost four of their last five versus Real Madrid. They failed to score in three of those four losses, and they have failed to score in three of their last five matches overall. Only Leganes has scored fewer than the 26 goals that Espanyol has tallied in La Liga this season. Even Leganes has a better goal differential than the -24 mark of Espanyol. This should be an easy win for the visitors. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-28-20 | Atalanta -1 v. Udinese | 3-2 | Push | 0 | 51 h 50 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Atalanta. We get plus money taking Atlanta on the Asian handicap line (-1.25), and this match looks rather one-sided. Atalanta has the best goal differential in Series A, after just 27 matches they are +40. They come in as winners of five straight, while Udinese is winless in it's last five. They have scored just twice during that span, and Udinese has scored a Series A low 21 goals in 27 matches. Atlanta has won four straight against Udinese, and all four of those matches were decided by two or more goals. This appears to be a bargain. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-27-20 | Fiorentina v. Lazio -169 | Top | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 80 h 42 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Lazio After going up 2-0 early against Atalanta, Lazio went on to lose by a score of 3-2 in their last match. Atalanta might be the only team in the Series A capable of such a stunning comeback, and the result was a major setback for Lazio's title hopes. They enter today's match sitting seven points back of first place Juventus, and that makes this a must win. Lazio is 4-0-1 in it's last five matches versus Fiorentina, and the underdogs don't have much to play for. Safe from relegation, Fiorentina might just throw in the towel against a highly motivated opponent. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-27-20 | Wolverhampton Wanderers -119 v. Aston Villa | 1-0 | Win | 100 | 52 h 56 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Wolves. I had Wolves in their win over Bournemouth, and here is what I said prior to the match: "Both these teams picked up right where they left off in their first game back in the Premier League. Wolverhampton won 2-0 over West Ham, putting tham that much closer to a Champions League spot, and Bournemouth lost by the same score to Crystal Palace. Bournemouth is winless in it's last five Premier League matches, putting them at risk of relegation. Wolverhampton sits tied on points with 5th place Manchester United, so I expect them to be the far more motivated side today. Injuries to several key plays could also take their toll on Bouremouth." Aston Villa is ranked dead last in the Premier League with 59 goals against in 31 matches. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-24-20 | AFC Bournemouth v. Wolverhampton Wanderers -170 | 0-1 | Win | 100 | 13 h 3 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Wolves. Both these teams picked up right where they left off in their first game back in the Premier League. Wolverhampton won 2-0 over West Ham, putting tham that much closer to a Champions League spot, and Bournemouth lost by the same score to Crystal Palace. Bournemouth is winless in it's last five Premier League matches, putting them at risk of relegation. Wolverhampton sits tied on points with 5th place Manchester United, so I expect them to be the far more motivated side today. Injuries to several key plays could also take their toll on Bouremouth. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-23-20 | West Ham United v. Tottenham Hotspur -140 | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 26 h 36 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Tottenham Spurs. A 1-1 draw versus Manchester United puts Tottenham a step closer to clinching a Champions League spot. They are now just four points back of Manchester United who sit in the fifth spot in the Premier League table, with plenty of football yet to be played. West Ham is facing a very different battle, trying to avoid relegation. They didn't do themselves any favors losing 2-0 to Wolverhampton in their first game since the restart. The Spurs have won three of the last four matches versus West Ham, and they look like a solid bet here in this match. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-22-20 | Burnley +2.5 v. Manchester City | 0-5 | Loss | -117 | 40 h 41 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Burnley +2.5. Manchester City is coming off a 3-0 win over Arsenal in their first game since the restart, but the final score in that game was a little misleading. City scored just before halftime, and then an early red card in the second half changed the game. Pep says that moving forward he will look to rest players, as there is nothing left for his club to achieve in the league this season. Burnley still has plenty to play for, but won't have two of their best players (Chris Wood and Ashley Barnes). Jay Rodriguez will likely start, and he's found the net five times in a dozen starts this season. Burnley comes in undefeated in their last five matches, and I like them to compete against City in this match. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-21-20 | Liverpool -141 v. Everton | 0-0 | Loss | -110 | 336 h 23 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Liverpool. Liverpool should be more motivated to return to play than most teams, and a win over Everton in the Merseyside Derby will put them that much closer to a championship. They have had the edge in recent meetings versus Everton, winning three of the last four. Everton has far less reason to be excited about the return to play, with nothing to really gain. Normally the home team would have a decided advantage in this derby match, but that's not really a factor without fans. "The fact that we play home without supporters is a disadvantage for us, it will be a disadvantage for Liverpool, this is for sure. "Nobody knows how the players are going to react without supporters. We will see," said Carlo Ancelloti. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-20-20 | SC Freiburg +2.25 v. Bayern Munich | 1-3 | Win | 50 | 80 h 9 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Freiburg +2.5. Bayern Munich has very little to play for in this match, after clinching the Bundesliga title in a win over Werder Bremen mid week. They will surely rest players, and should be in cruise control. Freiburg has been playing well, with just one loss in their last five matches. Two of the last three times these teams have faced each other, the result has been a draw. Bayern is coming off three straight wins by just one goal, so asking them to win this match by three goals seems a little far fetched. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-20-20 | Borussia Dortmund v. Lokomotive Leipzig +123 | 2-0 | Loss | -100 | 2 h 59 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Leipzig. Borrussia Dortmund is already assured a top four finish in the Bundesliga, which might explain their 2-0 loss to bottom feeders Mainz on Wednesday. They face an RB Leipzig team today that is still battling for a spot in the Champions League. Leipzig comes in undefeated in their last five matches, and they need two points here in this match. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-20-20 | Leicester -0.25 v. Watford | 1-1 | Loss | -55 | 288 h 13 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Leicester City. The return to play in the Premier League is not well received by everyone. Watford's leading scorer Troy Deeney has been very outspoken about his decision not to train with the team. He has very good reasons for his decision, with a young child who has health concerns. Watford may need all hands on deck if they are going to avoid relegation. Leicester City have a lot more motivation to return, as they look to secure a spot in the Champions League next year. Leicester has won three of their last four matches against Watford, and they should be in far better shape here for this match. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-19-20 | Manchester United v. Tottenham Hotspur | 1-1 | Push | 0 | 29 h 2 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Manchester United. This is a huge match for both teams, as they are both looking to secure a Champions League spot. Manchester United comes in undefeated in their last five matches, while Spurs come in winless in their last five matches. Granted that Tottenham was without several key players such as Harry Kane and Son Heung-Kim, who are now fit to play and are expected to start versus Manchester United. They might hit the ground running, but it is far more reasonable to expect it to take a few matches before they really start clicking again. Manchester United has won four of their last five versus Spurs, and I like their chances here in the first game back. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-18-20 | Real Sociedad -110 v. Deportivo Alaves | 0-2 | Loss | -110 | 120 h 5 m | Show | |
This is a play on Real Sociedad. I bet on Real Sociedad in their first game back, and they did dominate time of possession in a disappointing 1-1 draw versus Osasuna. Here is what I said prior to the match: "The trend of top teams coming in more prepared than the bottom teams after a long layoff is expected to continue here on Sunday. Real Sociedad is sitting fourth in the table, with several teams on their heels. They need maximum points here against a Osasuna team that they have beaten in each of the last four head to head meetings." I expect a far better result here on Thursday against another bottom feeder. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-17-20 | Arsenal +1.5 v. Manchester City | 0-3 | Loss | -107 | 322 h 36 m | Show | |
This is a Free play on Arsenal +1.5. It's been a disappointing season for Manchester City, and they really have nothing to gain in the Premier League when it returns. They are so far behind Liverpool, that they might as well just focus on the Champions League. Rumors have several star players leaving the team after this year, so they might not have a lot invested in these remaining games. Arsenal on the other hand has a chance to finish in the top five, and they come in as winners of four of their last five matches in all competitions, and are undefeated in their last five Premier League matches. Man City hasn't won any of it's last five games by more than one goal, and Arsenal hasn't lost any of it's last five games by more than one goal. GL, Jesse Schule |

06-17-20 | Sheffield United v. Aston Villa | 0-0 | Push | 0 | 82 h 33 m | Show | |
5* |

06-14-20 | Osasuna v. Real Sociedad -134 | 1-1 | Loss | -134 | 27 h 3 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Real Sociedad. So far it's been a perfect start to La Liga, with a pair of winners on Sevilla and Barcelona by a combined score of 6-0. The trend of top teams coming in more prepared than the bottom teams after a long layoff is expected to continue here on Sunday. Real Sociedad is sitting fourth in the table, with several teams on their heels. They need maximum points here against a Osasuna team that they have beaten in each of the last four head to head meetings. Osasuna will also come into this match with several key players unavailable. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-13-20 | Barcelona FC -1.75 v. Mallorca | 4-0 | Win | 100 | 7 h 11 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Barcelona -1.5. The gap in talent between the bottom teams and the top teams in La Liga is as wide as it gets, and Mallorca is up against a monster when they face Barcelona in the first game back. Both Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez have been ruled fit to play on Saturday, and there is no shortage of firepower for the Spanish Giants. Barcelona has outscored Mallorca 10-2 in the last two head to head matches, and they have won the last five meetings by 2 or more goals. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-13-20 | Eintracht Frankfurt v. Hertha Berlin +115 | 4-1 | Loss | -100 | 163 h 3 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Hertha Berlin. Hertha Berlin was on a roll until they fell 1-0 to Borrussia Dortmund in their last match. They had been undefeated in their previous six matches, and they had scored 2+ goals in all six games. This Saturday they face a Frankfurt team coming off a 2-1 loss to Bayern Munich on Wednesday. Both these teams have been poor defensively, each allowing more than 50 goals in 30 matches. This figures to be a good spot for Hertha Berlin to get back on track, and I expect a convincing win here. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-13-20 | Eintracht Frankfurt v. Hertha Berlin OVER 3 | 4-1 | Win | 106 | 55 h 22 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 2.5. Hertha Berlin was on a roll until they fell 1-0 to Borrussia Dortmund in their last match. They had been undefeated in their previous six matches, and they had scored 2+ goals in all six games. This Saturday they face a Frankfurt team coming off a 2-1 loss to Bayern Munich on Wednesday. Both these teams have been poor defensively, each allowing more than 50 goals in 30 matches. This figures to be a good spot for Hertha Berlin to get back on track, and I expect a convincing win here. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-12-20 | AC Milan v. Juventus -155 | 0-0 | Loss | -155 | 242 h 52 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Juventus. When football resumes we will see clearly which teams have taken training seriously over the last three months. I feel quite certain that top tier teams and elite players would be far less likely to pack on extra pounds, and party too hard during the lockdowns. Juventus is just one point ahead of Lazio in Series A, and Christiano Ronaldo is still the best player in the world. He's scored 21 goals in 22 matches in Italy so far this season. AC Milan returns from the break without their most dangerous scorer, after Zlatan Ibrahimovic suffered a serious injury in training. Juventus is 4-0-1 in the last five head to head meetings. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-11-20 | Betis v. Sevilla -106 | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 113 h 33 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Sevilla. Real Betis has a losing record, and a negative goal differential this season. They are not in any real danger of relegation, so I would expect them to be in cruise control when the league resumes. Sevilla on the other hand sits third in the table, with real aspirations moving forward. These teams met twice in 2019, with Sevilla winning both matches. Sevilla is just two points ahead of the sixth place team Atletico Madrid, and they will need all the points they can get if they hope to hang on to a Champions League spot. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-06-20 | Hertha Berlin +1.5 v. Borussia Dortmund | 0-1 | Win | 100 | 109 h 31 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Hertha Berlin +1.5. Dortmund is coming off a 6-1 win over the last place team in the Bundesliga, in a game that was scoreless at halftime. They are a massive favorite here this week against a Hertha Berlin side that is undefeated in their last five matches. Dortmund has lost twice in their last five matches, and they have not defeated Hertha Berlin by more than one goal in each of the last four head to head meetings. Two of the last four meetings ended in a draw. Hertha Berlin has scored two or more goal in each of their last five matches. I think it's asking too much of Dortmund to expect them to win this game by two or more goals. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-31-20 | Borussia Dortmund v. SC Paderborn 07 OVER 3 | 6-1 | Win | 100 | 10 h 50 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 3. Borussia Dortmund has failed to impress in their last two matches, after winning their first game back by a score of 4-0 versus Schalke. Erling Haaland has been playing hurt, and he won't be available for tonight's match versus last place Paderborn. Inserting a healthy body in the lineup should pay dividends again one of the worst defensive teams in Germany. These teams have a history of playing high scoring games, and Dortmund has scored 19 goals in the last four meetings. Paderborn doesn't score a lot of goals, but still have averaged more than one goal per match this season. GL, Jesse Schul |
|||||||
05-30-20 | FC Augsburg v. Hertha Berlin OVER 2.5 | 0-2 | Loss | -125 | 69 h 37 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 2.5 goals. Hertha Berlin enters this match undefeated in their last five overall, and they have scored at least two goals in all five of those matches. FC Augsburg is 1-1-1 since the return of the league, and they are coming off a 0-0 draw versus the last place team in the Bundesliga. These two teams have a history of playing high scoring games, with each of the last four head to head meetings going over the total. Poor defending is a problem for both teams. Both teams have conceded at least 50 goals in 28 matches this season. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-27-20 | Hertha Berlin v. Lokomotive Leipzig OVER 3 | 2-2 | Win | 100 | 97 h 58 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on both teams to score. Hertha Berlin has scored seven goals in back to back wins since the return to action, but they will be a huge underdog against Leipzig. After a disappointing 1-1 draw in their first game back, Leipzig won 5-0 against Mainz in their last match. Previous meetings between these teams have been high scoring, and we should expect plenty of goals here in this match. Hertha Berlin has scored 12 times in their last four matches, while Leipzig have scored nine times in their last three matches. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-26-20 | Borussia Monchengladbach v. SV Werder Bremen OVER 2.25 | 0-0 | Loss | -130 | 75 h 38 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on over 2.25. Bremen has been miserable defending this season, only Mainz has conceded more goals than Bremen. Monchengladbach has scored more that their fair share, tallying 53 goals in 27 matches. Bremen has scored four goals in their last three matches, so a clean sheet for either of these teams seems rather unlikely. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-23-20 | Borussia Dortmund -129 v. VfL Wolfsburg | Top | 2-0 | Win | 100 | 105 h 11 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Borussia Dortmund. I bet on Dortmund in there first game back, and they didn't disappoint in a 4-0 win over rivals Schalke. Here is what I said prior to the match: "This looks like a mismatch on paper, when you consider Dortmund has scored more than twice as many goals (68) as Schalke (33). While momentum seems to have been lost, it might be logical to expect a team competing for the top spot in the Bundesliga to have taken their fitness more seriously during the layoff. Without fans there won't be much of a home field advantage..." This week they face Wolfsburg, and they need maximum points to keep pace with first place Bayern Munich. Wolfsburg didn't look sharp in their first game back, playing to a 1-1 draw after 90 minutes, but scoring the match winner in injury time versus FC Augsburg. Wolfsburg is 0-4-1 in their last five matches versus Dortmund, and they haven't scored a single goal in any of those five contests. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-18-20 | Bayer Leverkusen -144 v. SV Werder Bremen | Top | 4-1 | Win | 100 | 12 h 25 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Bayer Leverkusen. It's been a tough season for Werder Bremen, conceding a league worst 55 goals and sitting just one point ahead of last place SC Paderborn 07 (honeslty can't tell you anything about them). Bremen is 0-4-1 in their last five matches, and they host a Leverkusen side that is 4-0-1 in their last five matches. Home field isn't expected to have much significance without any fans in attendance, and as I have noted in recent days, the teams competing at the top of the table are expected to have taken their fitness more seriously during the long layoff. An additional week of training should also benefit Leverkusen. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-17-20 | Bayern Munich -1.75 v. Union Berlin | 2-0 | Win | 50 | 12 h 12 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Bayern Munich. The Bundesliga returned on Saturday, and we saw that the biggest blowout on the board was a 4-0 Borussia Dortmund win over Schalke. Despite injury woes, I noted that teams competing for the top spot in the league will likely have taken their training more seriously during the break. Bayern averages three goal per game, and they won their last four matches by a combined score of 12-0. The home side won't have any fans to cheer them on, so I like Bayern to win this game by a wide margin. GL, Jesse Schule |

05-16-20 | Schalke 04 v. Borussia Dortmund -163 | 0-4 | Win | 100 | 78 h 34 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Borussia Dortmund. The Revier Derby will feature second place Dortmund hosting a Schalke side that was winless in it's last seven matches. This looks like a mismatch on paper, when you consider Dortmund has scored more than twice as many goals (68) as Schalke (33). While momentum seems to have been lost, it might be logical to expect a team competing for the top spot in the Bundesliga to have taken their fitness more seriously during the layoff. Without fans there won't be much of a home field advantage, and Dortmund has mounting injury concerns. It looks like the bookmakers are pricing all these factors in, and perhaps over compensating. I don't expect much from Shalke here. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-11-20 | Borussia Dortmund +0.75 v. Paris St Germain | 0-2 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 20 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Dortmund. Dortmund is making plenty of noise in Germany this year, sitting four points back of 1st place Bayern Munich. They have won five straight in all competitions, and they have perhaps the most exciting young player in the game. Erling Haaland has scored nine goals in just five starts. PSG will have to make up for a 2-1 aggregate deficit, while Dortmund will have the luxury of playing for a draw. Even if PSG takes a 1-0 lead, then they would have the luxury of playing it out and going for the win on away goals. PSG has exited the Champions League early in the past, and it might just be deja vu all over again. Take DORTMUND. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-11-20 | Atletico Madrid +1 v. Liverpool | 0-1 | Push | 0 | 5 h 29 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Atletico Madrid. Liverpool has really not been sharp lately, losing to Watford and Chelsea and just barely beating Bournemouth. They scored a grand total of just three goals in those games, and now they need to beat Madrid by two goals to advance in the Champions League. It's a tall order, and I just don't like their chances when their opponent knows it can sit back and defend. Take ATLETICO. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-08-20 | Manchester City v. Manchester United OVER 2.75 | 0-2 | Loss | -117 | 15 h 2 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Over 2.5. The Manchester Derby should be a classic. City is coming off five straight wins while United has three wins an a pair of draws in their last five matches. Bruno Fernandez has really turned things around for the Red Devils, scoring in three of his four starts. Manchester United scored a dozen goals in those games. They will need all the goals they can get against a Manchester City club that leads the Premier League in scoring. The last Manchester Derby at Old Trafford saw City win by a score of 3-1, and I think we'll see a similar high score here this Sunday. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-07-20 | Brighton & Hove Albion v. Wolverhampton Wanderers -156 | 0-0 | Loss | -156 | 5 h 33 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on the Wolverhampton Wanderers. It comes as a surprise to many that Wolves are currently tied on points with Manchester United, and they have a favorable matchup at home versus Brighton on Saturday. Brighton has won just twice away from home this season, and they haven't managed a win in any of their last nine matches in all competitions. Wolves are coming off a 3-2 away win at Spurs, and they have scored a dozen goals while winning three of their last four matches in all competitions. Take Wolves. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-07-20 | Norwich City v. Sheffield United -137 | 0-1 | Win | 100 | 4 h 25 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Sheffield United. Despite some positive results of late, Norwich still has a stranglehold on last place in the Premier League. With relegation imminent, they are facing a top tier Sheffield side in an away match Saturday. Norwich owns the worst road record in the Premier League, with a shocking -19 goal differential. They have scored just six goals in 14 away matches, while Sheffield has conceded just 13 goals in 14 home matches. Only Liverpool has conceded fewer goals than Sheffield United so far this season. Take SHEF. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-07-20 | West Ham United v. Arsenal OVER 3 | 0-1 | Loss | -100 | 4 h 25 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 2.5. Arsenal will be a big favorite in Saturday's home match versus West Ham, and the Gunners have won four of their last five matches in all competitions. Their most recent Premier League match was a 3-2 win over Everton, and history tells us we can expect another high scoring game here against West Ham. Arsenal has won three of the last four head to head against the Hammers, and they scored a total of 11 goals in those matches. West Ham has conceded a whopping 49 goals so far this season, not far off the league worst (Aston Villa) of 52. The Hammers have been scoring, with eight goals scored in their last four matches. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-26-20 | Manchester City v. Real Madrid | Top | 2-1 | Loss | -100 | 793 h 25 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Real Madrid. Manchester City will head into the first leg of this Champions League tie looking to survive with a chance to win the second leg at home at the Etihad in March. Real Madrid is undefeated at home in domestic competition, and they are also undefeated at home in the Champions League. Real Madrid has won this competition seven times, while Manchester City has suffered many disappointments. Madrid is in first place in Spain, with a +26 goal differential, while the Citizens are just the second best team in the Premier Leaague. It will be quite tough for City to come away with a win here, but a close loss with an away goal would still be a solid result. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-22-20 | Aston Villa v. Southampton OVER 2.75 | 0-2 | Loss | -132 | 9 h 32 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 2.5. One of the reasons that Aston Villa is flirting with relegation is due to their shoddy play on defense. They have conceded a Premier League worst 50 goals this season. To be fair, Southampton hasn't been a lot better in that regard, conceding a whopping 48 goals of their own. Villa is coming off a terrible home loss to Tottenham, conceding the game winning goal in injury time. They are just 2-2-9 this season in 13 away matches. Southampton has out-scored Villa a combined 15-6 while going 4-0-1 in the last five head to head matches. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-22-20 | Brighton & Hove Albion v. Sheffield United UNDER 2.5 | 1-1 | Win | 100 | 9 h 31 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Under 2.5. The news that Manchester City will be banned from Champions League play next season has opened the door for some teams to climb up into a Champions League spot. One of those teams is Sheffield United, who currently sit in sixth in the table just one point back of Tottenham. Sheffield has allowed just 24 goals in 26 matches this season, only Liverpool has conceded fewer goals. They will host Brighton, and two of the last three meetings between these teams have finished with a 1-0 score. Brighton is 2-3-8 in 13 away matches, scoring just 14 goals in those games. Take Under.

02-22-20 | Aston Villa v. Southampton -141 | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 8 h 25 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Southampton. One of the reasons that Aston Villa is flirting with relegation is due to their shoddy play on defense. They have conceded a Premier League worst 50 goals this season. To be fair, Southampton hasn't been a lot better in that regard, conceding a whopping 48 goals of their own. Villa is coming off a terrible home loss to Tottenham, conceding the game winning goal in injury time. They are just 2-2-9 this season in 13 away matches. Southampton has out-scored Villa a combined 15-6 while going 4-0-1 in the last five head to head matches. Take SAINTS. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-19-20 | Lokomotive Leipzig +0.5 v. Tottenham Hotspur | Top | 1-0 | Win | 100 | 10 h 53 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Leipzig +0.5. Tottenham is coming off a 3-2 win at Aston Villa, and Son Heung Min scored the winning goal in injury time. We have since learned that Son will likely miss the rest of the year with a broken arm. Already without Harry Kane, and struggling on defense, it's going to take a miracle for Tottenham to avoid crashing out of the Champions League. Jose Mourino's squad was quite fortunate to have won their last match against a bottom feeder in the Premier League. This is a huge step up in class facing a team that is competing for top spot in the Bundesliga. Take Leipzig. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-14-20 | Leicester +0.5 v. Wolverhampton Wanderers | 0-0 | Win | 100 | 8 h 6 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Leicester City. The Wolverhampton Wanderers will host Leicester on Friday, and we might expect an exciting game here. Leicester comes in just a point behind Manchester City in the Premier League standings, while Wolves are firmly in the top half of the table. The Wanderers are 1-2-2 in their last five matches, and they have 11 draws in 25 matches. Only Arsenal has more draws so far this season. Two of the last three head to head matches have resulted in a draw, so if you fancy a long-shot bet you might want to consider a draw here. I think a better bet might be on both teams to score, as Leicester hasn't been held scoreless in 10 straight matches. Wolves have scored 18 goals in a dozen home matches, and Leicester has conceded a dozen goals in a dozen away matches. Perhaps the best bet though is on Leicester as an underdog, given that Wolves has won just four of 12 home matches, and Leicester has lost just four of 12 away matches. Take LEI. GL, Jesse Schule |

01-23-20 | Liverpool v. Wolverhampton Wanderers OVER 2.5 | Top | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 217 h 47 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Over 2.5. Liverpool sits 13 points clear of second place Manchester City in the Premier League standings, and they come into Thursday's game against Wolves as winners of nine straight matches in all competitions. They haven't conceded a single goal in seven straight matches. Wolves aren't an easy out at home, where they have scored 17 goals in 11 matches. Liverpool though has scored 21 goals in just 10 away matches. The last time Liverpool played on this pitch they lost 2-1 in last year's FA Cup. I expect to see at least three goals in this match. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |
