12-10-22 | France v. England OVER 2.25 | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 14 h 45 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Over. There is no shortage of talent between these two teams. England has scored a dozen goals in four games at the tournament, while France has scored nine goals in four matches. Both teams have scored in three of the last four head to head meetings, and the most recent international friendly was a 3-2 win for France back in 2017. An early goal could light this game on fire.

12-09-22 | Argentina v. Netherlands +265 | Top | 2-2 | Loss | -100 | 102 h 29 m | Show |
This is a 5* play on Netherlands. Lionel Messi has scored three goals in four games at this World Cup, and at the age of 35 some consider him the G.O.A.T. He did miss a penalty against Poland, and overall he's seen more than his share of disappointment at the World Cup throughout his career. Argentina will be a huge favorite against Netherlands, despite the fact that the Dutch are undefeated in 11 World Cups matches under manager Louis Van Gaal. Netherlands 3-1 win over USA was far more impressive than Argentina's 2-1 win over Australia. The Dutch have perhaps the best defense of any squad at the World Cup, with Virgin Van Djik widely considered the best in the world. I think the bookmakers have the wrong team favored here, Holland has a younger, more talented group of stars and a superior coach GL,

12-06-22 | Switzerland v. Portugal OVER 2 | 1-6 | Win | 100 | 10 h 10 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Over. Portugal will be a favorite in their knockout round match versus Switzerland, and I expect to see both teams score here. Portugal has plenty of offensive talent, and it was on display in the Group Stages scoring six goals in three matches. Switzerland also showed offensive prowess in a 3-2 win over Serbia in their final match of the first round. These two teams have scored a combined 10 goals in the last three head to head meetings. I can't see either of these teams posting a clean sheet. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-05-22 | South Korea v. Brazil OVER 2.5 | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 9 h 1 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Over. We haven't seen Brazil really play an aggressive brand of football yet at this World Cup. After beating Serbia 2-0, they won 1-0 over Switzerland with a late goal. Already having locked up first in the group, they lost 1-0 to Cameroon in the last game of the Group Stages. Expect a different story here against a Korean team that has scored four goals in their last two games. Here in the knockout round nobody is playing for a draw. Expect Brazil to get a goal in the first half, and all hell might break loose after that. These teams have gone over in four of their last five meetings. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-04-22 | Senegal v. England -187 | 0-3 | Win | 100 | 23 h 15 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on England. This England team has been to the Quarterfinals at the last World Cup, and followed that up with an appearance in the Finals at Euro2020. The opened the tournament with a 6-2 win over Irah, and aside from a scoreless draw versus USMNT, they have looked like maybe the best team at the tournament. Senegal finished second in Group A with wins over Qatar and Ecuador, but lost 2-0 to Netherlands. What's alarming for Senegal is they have no clean sheets. I think it's asking too much of the Senegal defense to keep this mighty England attack at bay. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-03-22 | United States v. Netherlands -105 | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 20 h 51 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on the Netherlands. The USMNT has been impressive here at the World Cup, particularly in their scoreless draw against England. They caught England in a let down spot, and the draw was actually a result that both teams were content with at the time. It's the knockout round now, and the football giants aren't playing for draws anymore. Holland has the best defender in the world in Virgil Van Djik, and they have conceded just one goal so far. They have not been held scoreless in any of their last 11 matches, here at the World Cup and in qualifying. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-02-22 | Brazil v. Cameroon OVER 2.5 | 0-1 | Loss | -135 | 13 h 42 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Over. We saw three of the four games at the World Cup yesterday go over the total, which should come as no surprise considering that in the final match of the Group Stages certain teams are forced to throw caution to the wind as they need to win in order to qualify. Unlike the first two matches when they are content to play for a draw, they need to push, take chances and go for the win. Then you have other teams that have already qualified (Brazil) who will rest starters and don't necessarily need a result. Brazil's backups are more than capable of putting a ball or two in the net, and that's especially true against a Cameroon squad that rarely posts a clean sheet. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-30-22 | Mexico -147 v. Saudi Arabia | Top | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 173 h 54 m | Show |
This is a 2* play on Mexico. The last time that Mexico failed to advance from the Group Stages at the World Cup it was 1978, They have made the Round of 16 in eight consecutive tournaments, and they face a must win here against Saudi Arabia if they intend to keep that streak alive. Saudi Arabia suffered a let down after their upset win over Argentina, losing their second match 2-0 to Poland. If Argentina defeats Poland and Mexico defeats Saudi Arabia, then goal differential comes into play. A win for Poland would put Mexico in control of it's own destiny. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-29-22 | Senegal v. Ecuador UNDER 2.25 | 2-1 | Loss | -124 | 80 h 10 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Under. Ecuador only needs a draw to punch their ticket to the the knockout round at the World Cup. They face Senegal in their final match of the Group Stages, and Senegal needs a win. Ecuador has played to a draw in four of their last five matches in all competitions, and in eight of their last 11. They have also posted a clean sheet in seven of their last eight matches, with the exception being a 1-1 draw versus Netherlands. We can expect a tight defensive battle here, and I expect a final score of 1-1 or 0-0. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-28-22 | Switzerland +1.25 v. Brazil | 0-1 | Win | 50 | 10 h 40 m | Show | |
This is a 3* play on SUI. So far in the World Cup, teams that have won by two or more in their first match, haven't done as well in their next match. Netherlands, Spain and England all settled for a draw in their second match. France won 4-1 in their opening match versus Australia, and then they beat Denmark 2-1 in their next match. Brazil will not have their leading scorer Neymar for the remainder of the Group Stages. The Swiss will likely be playing for a draw here, something they have successfully achieved in two of their last four matches versus Brazil. The Swiss have played nine matches at the World Cup since 2014, and only one of those nine matches resulted in a loss by more than one goal. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-26-22 | Saudi Arabia v. Poland UNDER 2.5 | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 6 h 21 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Under. Despite the fact that Lewandowski is one of the top goalscorers of his generation, Poland does not score a lot of goals in international play. In fact the under is 5-0 in their last five matches. With Poland off an 0-0 draw versus Mexico, and Saudi Arabia bagging two points with a win over Argentina, a draw here would be a suitable result for both teams. I expect a cautious approach, with neither team wanting to concede the first goal. Saudi Arabia had gone under in four straight prior to the match versus Argentina. GL, Jesse Schule. |
|||||||
11-25-22 | United States v. England -175 | 0-0 | Loss | -175 | 60 h 31 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on England. As impressive as USA was in the first half of their match versus Wales, they showed a serious lack of discipline and it cost them in the second half. This is likely to be a far more serious issue against and England team that is vastly superior as far as talent and pace. If the Americans play the same style here they are likely to concede a penalty and or go down to 10 men. If they are less aggressive because of all the players that are already on one yellow card, they will be punished by the potent English attack. Pick your poison, the USA are simply over-matched. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-25-22 | Senegal -108 v. Qatar | 3-1 | Win | 100 | 116 h 27 m | Show | |
This is a 3* play on Senegal. Both these teams lost their opening matches, but in much different circumstances. The Africans pushed Holland to the brink, and deserved a far better result. Qatar become the first Host Nation in the history of the World Cup to lose their opening match, and they looked completely outclassed. Playing for a draw won't be an option for Senegal, they need to get maximum points from this match if they want to stay alive in the tournament. Qatar should be trying to save face, and would do well to avoid embarrassment. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-24-22 | Serbia v. Brazil -195 | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 35 h 26 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Brazil. Serbia was knocked out of the Group Stages of the 2018 World Cup when they lost 2-0 to Brazil. This year's Brazil team looks perhaps even stronger than the side they fielded four years ago. They have won seven straight in all competitions, outscoring opponents a combined 26-2. There are no easy matches in the World Cup, and we witnessed a huge upset when Saudi Arabia defeated Argentina 2-1 on Tuesday. That said, this will likely prove to be the exception, rather than the rule. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-23-22 | Canada v. Belgium OVER 2.5 | 0-1 | Loss | -140 | 10 h 21 m | Show | |
This is a 3* play on Over. The Canadians are minnows of international football, but they might surprise some at this World Cup. Keep in mind they finished ahead of Mexico and USA in CONCACAF World Cup Qualifying. They have scored 11 goals in their last six matches in all competitions, including a 2-1 win over Japan in their last match. They are up against European powerhouse Belgium, who has some of the most talented attacking players in Europe. Kevin De Bruyne might still be the best midfielder in the world, and Romelu Lukaku scores goals in his sleep. The Belgians weakness is their aging defense, and that should keep the door open for Canada. Expect both teams to score and the total to go over. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-23-22 | Costa Rica +2 v. Spain | 0-7 | Loss | -100 | 19 h 56 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Costa Rica. At first glance it looks like this is a mismatch, but Costa Rica has thrived as an underdog at the World Cup. In 2014 they finished first in a Group that had been named the Group of Death, edging out England, Italy and Uruguay. They didn't make it out of the Group Stages in 2018, but they didn't lose a match by more than two goals either. Spain should be the favorite here, but this price seems far too high. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-22-22 | Australia v. France -1.5 | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 50 h 19 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on France. No Benzema... no need to panic for France. The defending champions have depth at every position. Australia did not impress in World Cup Qualifying matches. They had one win in their last five matches, and lost to Saudi Arabia and Japan. Their leading scorer Harry Souttar plays in England, not in the Premier League but at Stoke City in the League Championship. France won their last three World Cup Qaulifying matches by a combined score of 12-0. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-21-22 | Wales +0.25 v. United States | 1-1 | Win | 50 | 33 h 53 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Wales +0.5. The United States has not done anything in recent qualifying matches to justify being favored here in their World Cup opener versus Wales. They scored just one goal, while going 0-2-1 in their last three matches. The one goal came against El Salvador, and they failed to score in a loss to Japan and a 0-0 draw versus Saudi Arabia. Wales is winless in their last three qualifying matches, but they played European superpowers Netherlands and Belgium twice. It should be considered encouraging that Wales scored in four of their last five matches, and during that span they didn't lose a match by more than one goal. I fancy Wales to get at least a draw here. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-21-22 | Netherlands -161 v. Senegal | 2-0 | Win | 100 | 71 h 8 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Netherlands. This Netherlands team has had it's fair share of disappointment at major international tournaments. History tells us that they normally get off to a good start, but fade sooner than perhaps they should. They won all three matches in the Group Stages at the European Championships, by a combined score of 8-2. In their most recent World Cup appearances (2014), they won all three matches during the Group Stages by a combined score of 9-3. They catch a break here against Senegal, as Sadio Mane has been ruled out for the tournament. It will be difficult for Senegal to overcome the loss of their leading scorer and team leader. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-13-22 | Manchester United v. Fulham OVER 2.75 | 2-1 | Win | 50 | 22 h 15 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Over. Manchester United sits fifth in the Premier League table, and they will host Fulham on Sunday. It may surprise some that Fulham has actually scored five more goals this season than Manchester United. They have also conceded five more goals. These teams have a history of scoring goals when they face each other. The over is 4-1 in the last five meetings. Fulham has gone over the total in four of it's last five matches in all competitions. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-02-22 | Sevilla +2 v. Manchester City | 1-3 | Push | 0 | 9 h 30 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Sevilla. While Manchester City is the superior team playing at home, the line here is grossly inflated when you factor in the motivation for the two clubs. Pep Guardiola will rest his starters, and let the youngsters take the reigns here as City has already clinched top spot in the group. Sevilla needs a win to qualify, and should field their best squad. The last time they played at the Etihad they lost 2-1, and I wouldn't be surprised if that is the final score in this game. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-01-22 | Ajax Amsterdam v. Rangers +0.5 | 3-1 | Loss | -102 | 15 h 11 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Rangers. In a meaningless game at the end of the group stages, I expect a better effort from the Rangers in front of a home crowd. Rangers are winless in the group stages so far, and neither of these teams has any opportunity to advance. A win at home on their way out of the competition would offer some consolation for the fans. Rangers are 6-0-1 at home in their domestic league, with a +18 goal differential. In Champions League qualifiers they were 1-0-1 with a +3 goal differential. Ajax has nothing to gain here in Scotland, and it would be surprising if they didn't rest some key players. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-30-22 | West Ham United v. Manchester United -136 | 0-1 | Win | 100 | 5 h 48 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on MUTD. Erik Ten Hag has Manchester United trending in the right direction. They are undefeated in their last five matches in all competitions, and they have posted clean sheets in all but one of those games. The only exception being a 1-1 draw versus Chelsea, with the Blues scoring on a late penalty at Stamford Bridge. They welcome West Ham United to Old Trafford, and the Hammers are 1-1-4 in away matches this season. West Ham has lost three of their last four visits to Old Trafford. The home side should get maximum points here in this contest. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-29-22 | Leeds United v. Liverpool -1.5 | 2-1 | Loss | -125 | 11 h 55 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Liverpool. It was a poor start to the season for Liverpool, but Jorgen Klopp and the boys appear to have found their stride. They are coming off a 3-0 win over Ajax in the Champions League, and they are undefeated at Anfield with a +12 goal differential in six matches. Leeds on the other hand are ready to sack their manager. They are facing relegation, and they are winless in away matches this season. Their last game at Anfield was a 6-0 loss in February. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-26-22 | Liverpool v. Ajax Amsterdam +0.5 | 3-0 | Loss | -100 | 11 h 27 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Ajax. Liverpool is coming off a loss to Nottingham Forest in the Premier League, and they are destined to finish second in their group in the Champions League. There won't be anything to gain here for either team in an away match at Ajax. The Dutch side is unbeaten in five home matches in the Dutch league, with a goal differential of +20 (yes in five matches). When Ajax played at Anfield. Liverpool was fortunate to escape with a 2-1 win after scoring the game winner in the 89th minute. They have since added more players to their injury list. A draw should suit Jurgen Klopp just fine here, as he won't have his best squad available. GL, Jesse |
|||||||
10-25-22 | Manchester City v. Borussia Dortmund +1 | 0-0 | Win | 100 | 16 h 21 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Dortmund. Manchester City sits 1st in Group G, and they will travel to Germany to play 2nd place Dortmund on Tuesday. Manchester City won the first leg by a score of 2-1, on a late goal from Erling Haaland. Man City is 3-1-1 in five matches versus Dortmund dating back to 2016, and all three wins came by the exact same score (2-1). A win here would clinch the group for City, but a draw would likely also do the trick. Dortmund is 4-1-1 in six home matches in the Bundelsiga, which includes a 2-2 draw versus Bayern Munich. Don't be surprised if this game ends in a draw. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-22-22 | Manchester United +0.5 v. Chelsea | 1-1 | Win | 100 | 11 h 12 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on MUTD +0.5. Things are starting to take shape for Erik Ten Hag at Manchester United, the Red Devils are 4-0-1 in their last five matches in all competitions. They face a tough test here at Stamford Bridge, as Chelsea is also 4-0-1 in their last five matches. History tells us that this game is likely to be close. These teams have played to a draw in each of the last four meetings. Don't be surprised if we see a fifth straight draw in this series. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-16-22 | Manchester City v. Liverpool +0.5 | Top | 0-1 | Win | 100 | 10 h 58 m | Show |
This is a 10* on Liverpool. So Manchester City looks like an unstoppable force this season, while Liverpool has had a poor start in the Premier League. This has the Citizens pegged as heavy favorites heading to Anfield on Saturday, in a game where a draw would probably suit them just fine. In fact the last two times these teams met in the Premier League the result was a draw. Liverpool also knocked City out of the FA Cup and won the Community Shield versus City. While Pep Guardiola may have the superior squad this season, playing at Anfield is a daunting task. It's been five and a half years since Liverpool lost at home in front of their fans in a Premier League match. Manchester City hasn't won at Anfield since 2003, and that is their only win in 20 visits to Liverpool all time (modern era). GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-12-22 | Ajax Amsterdam v. Napoli -175 | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 6 h 50 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Napoli. The home side is on a tear so far this season, sitting top of the table in Series A, and undefeated in Champions League play. Ajax on the other hand has really dropped off since the departure of Ten Hag, and many of their top players. They lost 6-1 at home to Napoli in the first leg of this tie, and we should expect another easy win for the Italians here in Napoli. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
09-13-22 | Barcelona FC v. Bayern Munich -120 | Top | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 31 h 56 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Bayern. Robert Lewandowski left Bayern in the off-season to join Barcelona, and returns to face his former club in a Champions League match in Munich on Tuesday. While he's off and running with his new club, his replacements at Bayern are also making their mark. Jamal Musiala leads the team in scoring with four goals in five matches, while Sadio Mane has scored three times in six matches. These teams have played three times over the last seven years, Bayern has won all three of those matches by a combined score of 14-2. As good as Barcelona looks, this is a tough spot and they will do well just to keep the game close. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
09-10-22 | Sporting KC v. Houston Dynamo OVER 2.75 | 0-0 | Loss | -119 | 20 h 35 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Over. I said this about Kansas City a few weeks ago: "Kansas City sits dead last in the MLS standings, but after picking up William Agada and Erick Thommy in the mid season transfer market, they are not the same squad. They have scored 11 goals in their last three matches, winning two of those games" They since won at home versus San Jose, and then earned a 2-2 draw on the road at LAFC. It would appear that the betting markets haven't properly accounted for the new additions to this team. Both these teams have gone over in four of their last five matches, and three of the last four head to head meetings went over. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
09-03-22 | Austin v. Nashville SC OVER 2.75 | 0-3 | Win | 50 | 18 h 20 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Over. Austin F.C. is the second highest scoring team in MLS behind LAFC. After upsetting LAFC they suffered a let down in their next game losing 2-1 at home to Portland. They look to get back on track here in Nashville, and I like both teams to score in a high scoring match here. Nashville has one of the worst home records in MLS, despite scoring 25 goals in 15 matches. Austin F.C. has the second best away record in MLS, scoring 23 goals in 14 matches. The over is a combined 10-0 in these teams last 10 matches combined. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
08-31-22 | Newcastle United v. Liverpool -1.75 | 1-2 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 22 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Liverpool. After a lackluster start to the season Liverpool scored nine times in a 9-0 win over Bournemouth over the weekend. They host Newcastle here on Wednesday, and this looks like a tough spot for the Magpies. Newcastle could be without six starting players for this match, and that includes stars Allan Saint-Maximin and Callum Wilson. The last visit to Anfield was a 3-1 loss for Newcastle, and a similar score should be expected here in this match. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
08-27-22 | San Jose v. Sporting KC -112 | Top | 0-1 | Win | 100 | 68 h 45 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on KC. Kansas City sits dead last in the MLS standings, but after picking up William Agada and Erick Thommy in the mid season transfer market, they are not the same squad. They have scored 11 goals in their last three matches, winning two of those games. They host San Jose Saturday, and this appears to be a let down spot for the Earthquakes. San Jose is coming off a 2-1 home win over LAFC, but the Earthquakes have just one win in 13 away matches. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
08-22-22 | Liverpool -155 v. Manchester United | 1-2 | Loss | -155 | 13 h 12 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Liverpool. Neither of these two clubs have started the season the way they have hoped, but the situation at Old Trafford is a real dumpster fire. There have even been rumors that this match could be postponed due to protests from fans calling for the American owners of the club to be ousted. Erik Ten Hag has made a move to sign defensive midfielder Casemiro, but he's not going to play in this match. It will be the same squad that allowed four goals to Brentford, and lost 2-1 at home to Brighton. Liverpool has won three straight Premier League matches versus United by a combined score of 13-2. Two of those wins came at Old Trafford. It goes from bad to worse for the Red Devils. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
08-21-22 | Portland v. Sporting KC OVER 2.75 | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 17 h 20 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over. Sporting KC sits dead last in the Western Conference standings, and they have scored an MLS worst 26 goals in 26 matches. The good news is that they have scored seven of those goals in their last two matches. Their mid season signings (Erik Thommy and William Agada) have made an immediate impact, combining to score four goals in four matches since joining the club. History tells us we should expect a high score in a home game against the Portland Timber, as Kansas City looks to avenge a 7-2 loss to at Portland earlier this season. These teams have gone over in four of the last five meetings, and both teams have scored in all five of those matches. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
08-20-22 | Vancouver Whitecaps v. Real Salt Lake -156 | 1-1 | Loss | -156 | 21 h 6 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Real Salt Lake. Salt Lake is one of the best home sides in all of MLS. They are 7-3-2 in a dozen home matches, with a +8 goal differential. Only two teams in the Western Conference have a better home record than Salt Lake. They host Vancouver on Saturday night, and the Whitecaps have just two wins in 13 away matches. The home team has won four of the last five meetings between these clubs, with the one exception being a 4-0 win for Salt Lake in Vancouver. The Whitecaps have conceded 45 goals this season, and only two teams in MLS have conceded more. GL, Jesse Schule |

08-19-22 | Seattle Sounders FC v. LA Galaxy OVER 3 | 3-3 | Win | 100 | 21 h 43 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Over. |
|||||||
08-17-22 | New England v. Toronto FC OVER 3 | 2-2 | Win | 100 | 19 h 11 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Over. Toronto FC is 3-0-1 in their last four matches, and since acquiring Lorenzo Insigne and Federico Bernardeschi they are a different team. Both players found the net in a 3-1 win over Portland in their last match, and Toronto has only lost once in 13 home matches. They have scored 23 goals in those games. New England comes in as one of the more competitive teams in away matches, and they are one of just six teams to score 20 or more goals on the road. We should expect at least three goals here. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
08-16-22 | DC United v. Los Angeles FC -1.5 | 0-1 | Loss | -135 | 22 h 35 m | Show | |
This is a 1* play on LAFC. While the home team is an enormous favorite here, this just seems like too great a mismatch for the visitors to overcome. LAFC (the best team in MLS) has a +20 goal differential at home, while the visitors (DC United) have a -18 goal differential on the road. Only Charlotte has a worse goal differential in away matches (-19), and they just lost 5-0 at Banc of California Stadium. LAFC won the last meeting 4-0 in Washington, and a similar score is expected here. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
08-15-22 | Crystal Palace v. Liverpool -1.75 | 1-1 | Loss | -115 | 16 h 20 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Liverpool. I am not concerned by a 2-2 draw at Fulham in their season opener. Liverpool was coming off a 3-1 win over Manchester City in the Community Shield. They were entitled to suffer a bit of a let down on the road. This is a whole different kettle of fish (and chips). Playing at home at Anfield where they were undefeated last season. The Reds were 15-4-0 with a +40 goal differential in 19 home matches a year ago. They are facing a Crystal Palace team that they have beaten in five straight meetings. All five of those games were decided by 2+ goals, with a combined score of 17-1. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
08-14-22 | Tottenham Hotspur +0.5 v. Chelsea | 2-2 | Win | 100 | 8 h 10 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Spurs. While Chelsea has won the last four meetings between these two teams, holding Tottenham scoreless in all four matches, Spurs appear to be vastly improved since last season. They got off to a convincing start with a 4-1 win over Southamton in their season opener, while Chelsea just barely beat Everton in a 1-0 win decided by a penalty. Last season Chelsea played to a draw in seven of their 19 home matches, winning just nine of those contests. Tottenham suffered just six losses in 19 away matches last season. I like the Spurs chances of at least earning a draw here. GL, Jesse Schule |

08-13-22 | Portland v. Toronto FC OVER 3 | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 35 h 18 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Over. Toronto FC looks like a different team since acquiring Lorenzo Insigne and Federico Bernardesch. Both players scored in a 4-3 win over Nashville in their last match. They have struggled defensively all season long, conceding 42 goals in 24 matches. They host the Portland Timbers on Saturday, and these two teams have gone over in three of the last four meetings. Portland has conceded 22 goals in a dozen away matches, and Toronto has scored 20 goals in a dozen home matches. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
08-06-22 | San Jose v. Austin -160 | 3-3 | Loss | -160 | 44 h 53 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Austin FC. Sitting second in the Western Conference, and just four points back of league leaders LAFC, the bookmakers appear to be late to the party with Austin FC. They are just a small favorite in a home game against a San Jose team that is winless in it's last five matches. The Earthquakes have won just once in 11 away matches, and their goal differential is -10 in those games. Austin FC has scored an MLS best 47 goals in 23 matches. It's asking a lot for SJ to keep up here in Austin. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
08-03-22 | Nashville SC v. Portland OVER 2.5 | 1-1 | Loss | -112 | 13 h 0 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Over. The Portland Timbers are coming off a 4-4 draw versus Minnesota, and high scoring games have been the norm for this team in recent weeks. They have gone over the number in four of their last five matches, scoring a dozen goals during that span. Tonight they host a Nashville team that has the 5th best away record in MLS, and I fancy Nashville to score here in Portland. The last time these teams played it ended in a 2-2 draw. I expect a similar result here this time around. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
08-02-22 | Colorado Rapids v. New York Red Bulls -155 | 5-4 | Loss | -155 | 24 h 35 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on the NYRB. The Red Bulls don't have a great home record overall, but they have won three of their last four at home. Tuesday they face a Colorado Rapids team that has the worst away record of any team in MLS. Colorado is 0-3-7 with a -13 goal differential in 10 away matches so far this season. The Rapids have scored nine fewer goals and conceded five more than New York. Two teams trending in opposite directions, and it appear the home side is undervalued. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-30-22 | Austin v. Sporting KC | Top | 2-0 | Win | 100 | 20 h 28 m | Show |
This is a 5* play on Austin. Only four teams have a positive goal differential on the road, and one of those teams is Austin FC. There are only three teams in Major League Soccer with a negative goal differential at home, and one of those is Sporting KC. Ranked dead last in the Western Conference, Sporting KC also has the worst home record in the league. Austin FC leads MLS in scoring with 45 goals in 22 matches, while Sporting KC ranks dead last in the league with just 19 goals in 23 matches. Home field may not make a difference here in tonight's match. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-29-22 | Seattle Sounders FC v. Los Angeles FC -168 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 25 h 33 m | Show | |
This is a 3* play on LAFC. They were already the best team in MLS, but the addition of Garreth Bale makes them even better. I had this to say prior to their last match: "Garreth Bale's LAFC debut was rather uneventful, coming off the bench in the finals minutes of a 2-1 win over Nashville. He might see more action here in Kansas City tonight. Sporting KC sits at the bottom of the table, one of just four MLS clubs with a negative goal differential at home. LAFC is one of the best road teams in MLS, going 5-1-3 in nine matches. With a challenge at the top of the table from Austin FC, we should expect LAFC to go for the win tonight." Bale scored and they won 2-0 at Atlanta. We should expect them to have little trouble with Seattle here at home. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-23-22 | Los Angeles FC +105 v. Sporting KC | 2-0 | Win | 105 | 9 h 43 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on LAFC. Garreth Bale's LAFC debut was rather uneventful, coming off the bench in the finals minutes of a 2-1 win over Nashville. He might see more action here in Kansas City tonight. Sporting KC sits at the bottom of the table, one of just four MLS clubs with a negative goal differential at home. LAFC is one of the best road teams in MLS, going 5-1-3 in nine matches. With a challenge at the top of the table from Austin FC, we should expect LAFC to go for the win tonight. GL, Jesse Schule |

07-19-22 | Boca Juniors v. Argentinos Juniors +0.25 | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 48 h 58 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Argentinos Juniors. The Boca Juniors are the most famous team in Argentina, winning the league a record 34 times. The betting markets have been slow to adjust to the fact that they are no longer one of the top teams in the league. Argentinos Juniors are level on points with the first place team in the league, and they are unbeaten at home (3-0-1). Boca Juniors have lost two of three away matches, and are just 4-4 overall in the league. The poor results have led to the sacking of Sebastian Battaglia, and Boca will have an interim manager moving forward. The home dog appears to be the sharp play here. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-17-22 | Orlando City SC v. Atlanta United OVER 2.75 | 1-1 | Loss | -118 | 13 h 19 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over. Atlanta is coming off a 2-1 home win over Real Salt Lake, and they have gone over 2.5 goals in five straight matches. They host Orlando FC on Sunday, and these two teams have gone over in three of the last four head to head meetings. High scoring games have been the trend in Atlanta, with the home squad scoring 19 goals and conceding 14 in 10 home matches. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-13-22 | San Jose v. LA Galaxy -160 | 3-2 | Loss | -160 | 21 h 32 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on the LA Galaxy. LA is ranked 5th in the Western Conference, and they are in danger of falling out of the top tier in MLS. They are coming off a 3-2 loss at LAFC, but prior to that they beat Montreal 4-0 at home. They still have a respectable home record, and tonight they face a team that is winless on the road. San Jose is 0-3-6 with a -10 goal differential on the road. Home field is so huge in MLS, and this looks like a spot to back the home favorite. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-09-22 | Sporting KC v. CF Montreal -130 | Top | 2-1 | Loss | -130 | 88 h 10 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Montreal. Just last week Montreal was sitting in first place in the Eastern Conference, but after losing on the road at LA they have slipped to third. A home game against the last place team in MLS appears to be a great spot to get back on track. Sporting KC is just 1-2-7 with an MLS worst -16 goal differential in 10 games on the road. Montreal has a fairly average home record with five wins in eight matches, but they did score 16 goals in those games. All three of their home losses came against teams versus a winning record. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-04-22 | CF Montreal v. LA Galaxy OVER 3 | 0-4 | Win | 100 | 26 h 50 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 2.5. Montreal is all of a sudden sitting at the top of the Eastern Conference standings, despite a goal differential of just +3. While they have scored 32 goals in 17 matches, they have conceded almost as many. They will play in LA on the 4th of July, and the Galaxy are just 4-1-1 with a negative goal differential at home. I expect both teams to score here, and it should take at least two goals to win it. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
07-03-22 | Atlanta United v. New York City FC -165 | 2-2 | Loss | -165 | 15 h 19 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on New York FC. New York City is a powerhouse at home, and they have the best goal differential of any team in the MLS while going 6-2-1 in their nine home games. They host Atlanta, a team that struggles on the road. Atlanta is 1-1-6 in eight road games this season. New York is 3-0-1 in the last four head to head meetings, and they are back home after going winless on a three game road trip. New York has out-scored Atlanta 8-2 in the last four meetings. This looks like a great spot for the home favorite to get back on track. GL, Jesse Schule |

06-30-22 | Austin v. Charlotte FC OVER 2.5 | 1-0 | Loss | -115 | 9 h 34 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over. Of the seven games in MLS on Wednesday, six of them went over the total. I expect that trend to continue here tonight with Austin FC playing at Charlotte. Only two teams in MLS have scored more goals this season than Austin FC. That said, their record in away matches is pretty pedestrian with a negative goal differential. Charlotte on the other hand has one of the better home records in MLS, going 6-2 with a +6 goal differential. Austin FC has gone over in four of their last five matches overall, while the over is 3-2 in Charlotte's last five matches. The most likely outcome here is a 2-1 final score. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-28-22 | Real Madrid +250 v. Liverpool | Top | 1-0 | Win | 250 | 98 h 39 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Madrid. Here is what I said about Madrid prior to their win over Manchester City in the Semifinal: " Karim Benzema scored twice for Real Madrid, and he leads all scorers in Champions League play with 14 goals in 10 matches. He's the best player in the world at the moment, so it's expected that he will score at home in the second leg." Madrid scored three goals in five minutes to come back from the dead and eliminate City. Liverpool comes into the Final off a let down on the final day of the Premier League. They appeared to have passed Manchester City on points, but the Citizens staged a late comeback of their own to hold on and win another title. Liverpool has played two draws, and won by a single goal twice in their last five matches. Madrid is 4-0-1 in their last five matches versus Liverpool, and I wouldn't be surprised if this game goes to extra time to decide a winner. GL, Jesse Schule |

05-12-22 | Arsenal v. Tottenham Hotspur OVER 2.5 | 0-3 | Win | 100 | 12 h 47 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 2.5. This is a huge game for both teams, with a spot in next season's Champions League up for grabs. Arsenal has been playing like they are on a mission, winning four straight matches and scoring 10 goals in those games. The Spurs have not been on top form, with just two wins in their last five matches. These teams played twice in the Premier League in 2021, and both those games went over the total. Arsenal has gone over in all four games during their current winning streak. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-08-22 | Newcastle United v. Manchester City OVER 3 | 0-5 | Win | 100 | 8 h 11 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over. So Man City was on their way to the Champions League Final, but after conceding not one but two goals in injury time they lost on a Benzema penalty in extra time in the Semi Final. Now they focus on clinching the Premier League with Liverpool still hot on their heels. They host a Newcastle team that has won four of their last five matches. Three of the last four head to head meetings have gone over the total, and we should expect another high scoring affair here in Manchester. GL, Jesse Schule |

04-26-22 | Real Madrid +1.25 v. Manchester City | Top | 3-4 | Win | 50 | 21 h 16 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Real Madrid +1.5. Manchester City has no business being such a big favorite here in the first leg of this Champions League tie. While City is under heavy pressure in a heated Premier League battle with Liverpool, Madrid is on the verge of clinching another La Liga title. Karim Benzema looks like the best player in the world at the moment, with a dozen goals in nine matches in Champions League play. Manchester City has injury concerns that might cause Gabriel Jesus to play out of position at right back. We expect a cautious approach from both teams, and a draw seems like a likely result. Only once in the last five head to head meetings has either of these teams won by more than one goal. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-15-22 | Atletico Madrid v. Manchester United OVER 2.25 | 1-0 | Loss | -101 | 4 h 55 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Over, Manchester United finished at the top of Group F, despite conceding eight goals in six matches. Atletico Madrid finished second in Group B, also conceding eight goals in six matches. Both teams also rank poorly in goals against in their respective domestic leagues. We saw a 1-1 draw in Spain, which means neither team has the luxury of protecting a lead. I expect both teams to go for it here in the second match at Old Trafford. The leading scorer in Champions League history is on top form, scoring a hat trick over the weekend in a 3-2 win over Spurs. Atletico has scored seven goals in three matches in Spain since the first leg match. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-10-22 | Newcastle United v. Southampton OVER 2.5 | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 11 h 46 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over. They say "money isn't everything", but it sure as hell helps. Newcastle has benefited from deep pockets, buying players over the last few months, and it's helped them turn their season around with a record of 6-0-2 in their last eight matches. They have a history of playing high scoring matches against Southampton. Last year these teams played twice, and both teams scored at least twice in each meeting. Only Leeds and Norwich have conceded more goals than Newcastle this season. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-09-22 | Paris Saint-Germain v. Real Madrid | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 12 h 18 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Madrid. PSG won the first leg by a score of 1-0, but they head to the Bernabeu for the second leg of this Champions League tie versus Real Madrid. The home team is sitting top of the table in Spain, leading the league in goals scored as well as goal differential. They have yet to be beaten at home in La Liga this season, boasting a record of 10-0-4. Paris has lost two of three domestic league games since their first leg win versus Madrid, and they might not have Kylian Mbappe in the lineup Wedneday. The French international suffered a foot injury over the weekend. "Kylian Mbappé received a knock on his right foot in training today. He has undergone treatment this afternoon," read the release. "The medical tests are reassuring and another update will be made in 24 hours." It was Mbappe who scored the only goal in the first leg. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-06-22 | Portland v. Los Angeles FC | 1-1 | Push | 0 | 20 h 58 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on LAFC. Carlos Vela missed most of the last two MLS seasons, and his team suffered in his absence. His last full season was in 2019, and he scored an incredible 36 goals in 33 starts. LAFC finished first in MLS that season, eight points clear of their closest competitor. Vela appears to be healthy, scoring a hat trick in the season opener. Portland needed to score a late equalizer to salvage a draw in their home opener versus New England. I don't fancy the Timbers to earn any points here in LA. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-05-22 | LA Galaxy +136 v. Charlotte FC | 1-0 | Win | 136 | 19 h 58 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on LA. I ain't gonna blow smoke up your @## and pretend I know everything about the expansion team from Charlotte. This is just the second weekend of the MLS season, and with college hoops in full swing and NBA and NHL into the second half of the season, my focus hasn't been on soccer. I do know that Charlotte lost it's first match 3-0 to a mediocre DC United team, and I know that the last few expansion teams in the MLS have finished at or near the bottom of the table in their first season. LA Galaxy had high expectations when they signed Chicharito, but he's had trouble staying healthy. He scored a goal in their season opener, giving him 18 goals in his last 21 starts. He's still a world class player, and he should give the Galaxy a huge edge. I will take the plus money for a small play. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-23-22 | Tottenham Hotspur -125 v. Burnley | 0-1 | Loss | -125 | 13 h 11 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Spurs. Tottenham sits eighth in the Premier League table, which would have to be considered a disappointment. Harry Kane has only scored seven goals, but two of those came in a win over Manchester City over the weekend. Spurs come in on top form, looking to finish the season strong. Burnley is sitting in the relegation zone, and they have just two wins so far this season. History favors Spurs who have outscored Burnley a combined 12-1 while going 4-0-1 in the last five head to head matches. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-22-22 | Lille OSC v. Chelsea -0.25 | 0-2 | Win | 109 | 12 h 27 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Chelsea. After finishing at the Top of League 1 in France last year, Lille sits 11th in the table this season. Chelsea sits third in the Premier League table, and they come in on top form with four wins and a draw in their last five matches. While they aren't really in the running to to win the Premier League, I think Chelsea may be better suited to win the Champions League. They have the best goalkeeper, and they are incredibly efficient on defense. The Blues have posted a clean sheet in three of their last four matches in all competitions, and I expect another clean sheet here. Looking for a 2-0 win for the home team. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-19-22 | Newcastle United v. West Ham United OVER 2.5 | 1-1 | Loss | -125 | 32 h 21 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over. Newcastle has won three straight matches, moving them out of the relegation zone. They still need to earn points to hold off the likes of Norwich and Watford who are just a few points back. Points will be hard to come by against West Ham, who are sitting in 5th in the Premier League. The Hammers have scored 44 goals in 25 matches, and Newcastle has allowed 44 goals in 23 matches. Four of the last five head to head meetings have gone over the total. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-13-22 | West Ham United v. Leicester OVER 2.5 | 2-2 | Win | 100 | 10 h 17 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Over. West Ham and Leiceser have a history of playing high scoring games. The last five head to head matches have all seen at least three goals combined. Leicester has conceded 11 goals in their last five matches, while West Ham is one of four clubs in the Premier League to have scored 40 or more goals. West Ham has scored 10 goals in their last three matches versus Leicester, and I expect both teams to score here on Super Bowl Sunday. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-12-22 | Brighton & Hove Albion v. Watford +0.5 | 2-0 | Loss | -130 | 5 h 19 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Watford. Brighton Hove Albion sits in the top 10 in the Premier League table, despite winning just six of their 22 matches. They have played a Premier League leading 12 draws, making it twice as likely they draw than actually win, and three times as likely to lose or draw rather than win. They face a Watford club fighting to avoid relegation, and another draw here seems likely. Watford has played to a draw twice in their last four matches, and two of the last four head to head versus Brighton have been draws. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-09-22 | Leeds United v. Aston Villa -121 | 3-3 | Loss | -121 | 10 h 58 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Aston Villa. Steven Gerrard has Villa playing on top form, coming off a 1-0 win over Everton and a 2-2 draw versus Manchester United. They host Leeds United Wednesday, and this is a game they should win. Leeds has failed to score in two of their last three matches, and they have a -12 goal differential while going 2-2-7 in away matches. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-08-22 | Manchester United -161 v. Burnley | 1-1 | Loss | -161 | 13 h 23 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Manchester United. The Red Devils sit in fourth in the Premier League table, nine points behind Chelsea. They are coming off a disappointing loss to Middlesbrough in the FA Cup. They look to get back on track here against Burnley, who sit dead last in the Premier League. Burnley is coming off a scoreless draw at home versus Watford, a game that was entirely uninspiring. They would be thrilled to earn a draw here today, but given that they have scored a Premier League low eight goals in 19 matches, and have just one win, it's hard to like their chances. GL, Jesse Schule |

01-22-22 | West Ham United v. Manchester United OVER 2.5 | Top | 0-1 | Loss | -135 | 56 h 0 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Over. There are only three teams in the Premier League that have scored 30 or more goals as well as conceded 30 or more goals. Two of those teams will play each other on Saturday when Manchester United hosts West Ham United. The Hammers have scored two or more goals in each of their last five matches, and they have scored 41 goals in 22 matches in the Premier League this season. These two teams are fighting for a spot in the Champions League, and we should see an exciting game with both teams scoring here at Old Trafford. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-19-22 | Tottenham Hotspur v. Leicester OVER 2.5 | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 26 h 31 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over. Leicester City has scored 31 goals this season, which is eight more than Tottenham. They have also conceded 33 goals, which is 13 more than Spurs. These teams have each scored their share in recent head to head meetings. Spurs won the last meeting by a score of 4-2 at King Power Stadium last May, and four of the last five meetings have seen a total of three or more goals. Leicester has scored at least one goal in 10 straight matches, and I expect to see goals from both teams here at King Power on Wednesday. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-15-22 | Watford v. Newcastle United OVER 2.5 | 1-1 | Loss | -125 | 30 h 18 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over. At this point in the Premier League season, a match between two teams at the bottom of the table can be just as exciting as a match between two of the top teams. Watford is just two points clear of relegation, and Newcastle is currently tied with Burnley and just one point clear of last place Norwich. That makes this a must win for both these teams as they look to aviod relegation. Newcastle has the advantage, with deep pockets they have been buying players to improve their squad. Watford has scored at least one goal in seven of their last eight matches, and they have conceded at least two goals in seven of those eight games. This one should be a thriller. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-03-22 | Wolverhampton Wanderers v. Manchester United -173 | 1-0 | Loss | -173 | 36 h 54 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on MUTD. The Red Devils remain undefeated since Ralf Ragnick replaced Ole Gunnar Solsksjaer as head coach. They are coming off a 3-1 home win over Burnley. Manchester United struggled defensively under Solksjaer, but they have conceded just three goals in five matches under Ragnick. Wolverhampton doesn't pose much of a threat, only cellar dwelling Norwich has scored fewer goals than Wolves. The visitors will try to play for a draw, but I don't like their chances of stopping the mighty Red Devils at Old Trafford. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-01-22 | West Ham United v. Crystal Palace OVER 2.5 | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 16 h 42 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over. West Ham will visit Crystal Palace on New Years Day, and these teams have a history of playing high scoring matches. They have gone over in four of the last five head to head meetings. The Hammers have gone over in each of their last three matches, while Palace has gone over in four straight matches. Patrick Vieira's side is missing some top players, but they still managed to score three goals in their last match versus Norwich. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is a 5* play on Over. Liverpool leads the Premier League in scoring with 48 goals, eight more than Premier League leaders Manchester City. The Spurs have had limited success this season, but they have score five goals while winning their last two matches. Liverpool has scored five goals while winning their last two versus Spurs 3-1 and 2-1. Liverpool has conceded at least one goal in four of their last five matches. GL, Jesse Schule |

12-18-21 | Arsenal v. Leeds United OVER 2.5 | 4-1 | Win | 100 | 11 h 21 m | Show | |
This is a 7* play on Over. I bet the over in the Gunners last game, and fell short after a missed penalty. Here is what I said prior to that match: "The big news out of Arsenal is that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has been stripped of the captain's arm band. They did just fine without him in a 3-0 win over Southampton in their last match. It won't be so easy today as they face 4th place West Ham." They are at Leeds on Saturday, and Leeds is coming off a 7-0 loss to Manchester City. Leeds has conceded 32 goals this season, only two teams have conceded more (Newcastle and Norwich). GL, Jesse Schule |

12-15-21 | West Ham United v. Arsenal OVER 2.5 | 0-2 | Loss | -115 | 6 h 9 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over. The big news out of Arsenal is that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has been stripped of the captain's arm band. They did just fine without him in a 3-0 win over Southampton in their last match. It won't be so easy today as they face 4th place West Ham. The Hammers have scored 28 goals in 16 matches, and recent history between these teams suggests we could see a high score here. The last meeting was a 3-3 draw, and three of the last four meetings have gone over the total. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-12-21 | Newcastle United v. Leicester OVER 3 | 0-4 | Win | 100 | 9 h 15 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over. Only two teams in the Premier League have conceded 30+ goals, and Newcastle is one of them. Leicester City is hardly a defensive powerhouse, coming off a 3-2 loss to Napoli that knocks them out of the Europa League, and they have conceded two or more goals in four straight matches. This will be the third meeting between these teams in 2021, and they scored a combined seven goals in the first two meetings. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-11-21 | Manchester United -1 v. Norwich City | 1-0 | Push | 0 | 12 h 2 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Manchester United. The Red Devils have looked better since Ralf Rangnick has taken over. A 1-1 draw against Young Boys in the Champions League was not a bad result given that they rested most of their regular stars. They have won their last two Premier League starts versus Crystal Palace and Arsenal. They will play Norwich City Saturday, and this should be a mismatch. Norchwich sits dead last in the table, with no real hope of avoiding relegation. Manchester United has won the last three head to head meetings by a combined score of 9-2. GL, Jesse Schule |

12-10-21 | Watford v. Brentford OVER 2.5 | 1-2 | Win | 102 | 15 h 33 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over. Brentford will host Watford in a Friday match in the Premier League, and both these teams have been conceding a ton of goals lately. Watford has lost three straight matches, conceding nine goals in those matches. Brentford is coming off a 2-2 draw versus Leeds United, and they have conceded two or more goals in four of their last five matches. Watford has scored eight goals in their last four matches, unfortunately their defense has been sloppy. They have conceded 29 goals this season, only Newcastle and Norwich have conceded more.

12-08-21 | Villarreal v. Atalanta OVER 3 | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 12 h 36 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over 2.5. Atalanta will need to win as the home favorite in order to qualify for the round of 16 in the Champions League. They host Villa Real, and these teams played to a 2-2 draw earlier in the competition. Atalanta ranks 2nd in Series A in scoring, and they have scored 16 goals in their last five matches in all competitions. Another draw might be enough to get Villa Real through, but they will have to score to keep up to Atalanta. This should be an exciting match with plenty of scoring. GL, Jesse Schule |

12-07-21 | Liverpool v. AC Milan OVER 2.75 | 2-1 | Win | 50 | 13 h 44 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Over. Liverpool and AC Milan played a cracker of a game back in September, and Liverpool won by a score of 3-2. While Liverpool sits comfortably on top of the group, this is a must win game for Milan. They won't have the luxury of playing for a draw, and their tactics will reflect a level of desperation. Milan needs a win to have any chance at advancing to the round of 16. These teams have gone over in all three previous meetings in the Champions League dating back to 2005. We expect plenty of scoring here at San Siro. GL, Jesse Schule |

12-05-21 | Crystal Palace v. Manchester United -163 | 0-1 | Win | 100 | 38 h 47 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on MUTD. The Red Devils appear to have turned the corner since sacking Ole Gunnar Sosksjaer. They are coming off a 3-2 win over Arsenal midweek, and last weekend they played a 1-1 draw versus Chelsea. A home game against Crystal Palace is a must win for new boss Ralf Rangnick. Palace have lost back to back games. Both these teams rank among the worst in the Premier League in goals against, each conceding over 20 goals in 14 matches. Both teams have scored above the Premier League average. We should expect a high score here at Old Trafford. GL, Jesse Schule |

12-04-21 | Bayern Munich -116 v. Borussia Dortmund | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 8 h 23 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Bayern Munich. The Ballon D'or was presented to Lionel Messi this week, and this was one of the most obvious signs that FIFA is even more crooked that a two dollar bill. For the second season in a row, the rightful winner of the Ballon D'or will not receive his trophy. Robert Lewandowski has scored 14 goals in 13 matches in the Bundesliga this season. Messi has scored one goal for PSG... Bayern sits in first place, with a goal differential of +29 compared to second place Dortmund +14. Bayern has won five straight head to head versus Dortmund, and we should expect Lewandowski to have a statement game here. GL, Jesse Schule |

12-02-21 | Arsenal v. Manchester United +106 | 2-3 | Win | 106 | 13 h 6 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on MUTD. Manchester United finally sacked Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, and there is still time to turn their season around. If their 1-1 draw against Chelsea is any indication of what's to come, they may be in good shape. Arsenal comes in with four wins in their last five matches, three of those wins coming at home. The Gunners have a -8 goal differential in away games this season, only Norwich City ranks worse. This is a big game for the Red Devils, and I expect their talent to shine here in a big rivalry game at Old Trafford. GL, Jesse Schule |

11-30-21 | Norwich City v. Newcastle United OVER 2.5 | 1-1 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 10 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over. The bottom two teams in the Premier League will play at St. James Park Tuesday, and neither of these clubs have been able to stop opponents from scoring. Between them the have conceded a total of 56 goals while each playing in 13 Premier League matches. These teams have scored a combined four or more goals in four of the last five head to head meetings. GL, Jesse Schule |

11-28-21 | Manchester United v. Chelsea -166 | 1-1 | Loss | -166 | 18 h 46 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Chelsea. Chelsea sits top of the table in the Premier League, and they host a mediocre Manchester United squad Sunday. The Red Devils have themselves a new manager, and perhaps Ralf Rangnick can turn things around at Old Trafford. Don't expect it to happen overnight, and in the mean time they are likely to continue to struggle. The Blues have only conceded four goals this season, posting four clean sheets in their last five matches in all competitions. Manchester United has been embarrassed by top teams this year, losing to Liverpool and City by a combined score of 7-0. They will do well to avoid another embarrassment here at Stamford Bridge. GL, Jesse Schule |

11-24-21 | Paris Saint-Germain v. Manchester City UNDER 3.25 | 1-2 | Win | 50 | 13 h 27 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Under 3.5. Manchester City has been scoring plenty of goals versus lesser opponents, but the last time they faced PSG they lost 2-0 at Paris. In fact the last two head to head meetings between these teams ended with a final score of 2-2. Manchester City has only conceded three goals in their last five matches in all competitions, and they have posted three clean sheets during that span. It's expected to be a wet and windy day in Manchester, and I don't expect to see more than three goals scored in this match. GL, Jesse Schule |

11-06-21 | Newcastle United v. Brighton & Hove Albion OVER 2.5 | Top | 1-1 | Loss | -101 | 35 h 23 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Over 2.5. Brighton Hove Albion is coming off a pair of 2-2 games against Premier League powerhouses Liverpool and Leicester. They host Newcastle today, and they have won their last two versus Newcastle by a combined score of 6-0. Newcastle has conceded 23 goals in 10 matches so far this season, only Norwich has conceded more. The good news for Newcastle is that they have only been held scoreless in one of their last eight matches, scoring nine goals during that span. Expect a high score here. GL, Jesse Schule |

11-02-21 | Manchester United v. Atalanta OVER 3 | 2-2 | Win | 100 | 25 h 58 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over. I had the over in the first leg of this Champions League tie, and here is what I said prior to that match: "Manchester United lost 4-2 at Leicester in their first Premier League game coming out of the international break, but they look good in a home game in the Champions League versus Atalanta. The Italian side has scored 11 goals while conceding seven in their last five matches in all competitions, and they have scored three goals in two Champions League matches. Manchester United hasn't posted a clean sheet in any of their last eight matches, but they do have the all time leading scorer in Champions League history. I like the Red Devils to win a high scoring contest." GL, Jesse Schule |

10-30-21 | Manchester United v. Tottenham Hotspur OVER 2.5 | 3-0 | Win | 100 | 1 h 7 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on over. I bet against Manchester United last weekend, and here is what I said before the game: "Manchester United is coming off a 3-2 win over Atalanta in the Champions League, just a few days after they lost 4-2 to Leicester in the Premier League. Their defense will need to be a lot better if they hope to come away with any points in this weekend's fixture versus Liverpool. Mo Salah leads the Premier League in scoring with seven goals in eight starts, and Liverpool is tied for 2nd with a +16 goal differential. Manchester United is 0-2-1 in their last three Premier League games versus Liverpool." I am expecting another high score here in their match versus Tottenham. GL, Jesse Schule |
