03-17-19 | Los Angeles FC v. New York OVER 2.5 | Top | 2-2 | Win | 100 | 14 h 28 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on LAFC@NYFC to go Over the total. LAFC was one of the highest scoring teams in the MLS last year, and they are coming off a 4-1 home win over Portland last week. New York FC opened the season with a 2-2 draw versus Orlando, but they played to a 0-0 draw last week versus DC United. These teams have only met once in the MLS, playing to a 2-2 draw. New York finished in third in the Eastern Conference last year, and this team has plenty of goal scoring talent. We should see an exciting game here at Yankee Stadium. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-16-19 | Huddersfield Town v. West Ham United -169 | Top | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 44 h 48 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on West Ham. Huddersfield Town has a stranglehold on last place in the Premier League table, with just three wins in 30 matches this season. They come into this weekend's match at West Ham as losers of six of their last seven matches, and they failed to score a goal in five of those games. West Ham has won six straight at home, and they sit in the top 10 in the Premier League table. The Hammers have won two of the last three head to head meetings versus Huddersfield by a combined score of 7-2. I expect West Ham to take full points from a home match versus the worst team in the Premier League. Take WHU. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-12-19 | Atletico Madrid v. Juventus -137 | Top | 0-3 | Win | 100 | 22 h 12 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Juventus. I picked Juventus to win the Champions League this season, and here is what I said before the season started: "The Series A champs came very close to winning the Champions League in 2017, losing in the Final to Cristiano Ronaldo and Real Madrid. They lost again to Madrid in last year's competition. Ronaldo is the All Time leading scorer in Champions League play, and was perhaps the most impressive player at the 2018 World Cup. There is no doubt in my mind that he still has plenty left in the tank, and bringing him in will make Juventus the favorite to win this year's competition." They sit 16 points clear at the top of the table in the Series A, and they have conceded just 16 goals in 26 matches. They need a miracle here in the second leg of this tie versus Atletico, but just ask Machester United if miracles can happen? Take JUVE. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-09-19 | Fulham v. Leicester -165 | Top | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 19 h 35 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Leicester City. Leicester City has but one win in their last five matches, but that's one more than Fulham has in their last five. Fulham isn't quite the worst team in the Premier League, or at least they don't rank last in points. That distinction belongs to Huddersfield. Fulham though has allowed a Premier League worst 65 goals in 29 matches, and they do have the worst away record in the Premier League. As mediocre as Leicester is, the Foxes are undefeated at home during the Brendan Rogers era. Take Leicester. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-03-19 | Atlanta United v. DC United OVER 2.75 | Top | 0-2 | Loss | -118 | 19 h 23 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Over 2.5. Defending MLS champs Atlanta will begin their season on the road at DC United. Heading into this match, Atlanta played two matches in CONCACAF Champions League and a friendly versus LAFC. All three of those games saw at least four goals. Last year's leading scorer in MLS Josef Martinez scored twice in Atlanta's last match. Each of the last three meetings between Atlanta and DC United have ended with a score of 3-1. We should expect plenty of goals here in this season opening match. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-27-19 | Fulham v. Southampton OVER 2.5 | Top | 0-2 | Loss | -111 | 14 h 16 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Over 2.5. Southampton will host Fulham on Wednesday, in a battle of the bottom feeders in the English Premier League. Neither of these two clubs have had any success defending this season, allowing 111 goals between them. Fulham ranks dead last in the Premier League conceding 61 goals in total this season. The Saints have allowed multiple goals in each of their last seven matches, and during that span they scored nine goals. Southampton has scored 14 goals in their last nine home matches. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-22-19 | Fulham v. West Ham United -114 | Top | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 36 h 59 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on West Ham. Fulham has allowed more goals than any other club in the Premier League this season, and they have been particularly poor in away matches. They rank dead last in the Premier League with an 0-2-11 record in 13 away matches, and they have a -24 goal differential in those games. West Ham sits right in the middle of the Premier League table, and they come into this match versus Fulham with 18 goals in 13 home matches. Fulham has lost it's last two matches at West Ham by a combined score of 6-0. This figures to be another one sided match in favor of the home team. Take WHU. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-12-19 | Paris St Germain v. Manchester United OVER 2.5 | Top | 2-0 | Loss | -139 | 541 h 32 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Over 2.5. The Red Devils are a different team since they sacked Jose Mourino. They have really opened up with a less conservative style of play, and the results speak for themselves. Wins over Cardiff City, AFC Bournemouth and Huddersfield Town have come by a combined score of 12-3. They come off a 3-0 win over Fulham on Saturday, and they host PSG in the first leg of a Champions League tie this afternoon. PSG is in rough shape, with two of it's three Super Stars sidelined by injury. Edinson Cavani and Neymar have scored 30 goals between them, but Killian Mbappe has netted 18 goals in just 20 matches. All three players scored in a 4-1 win over Red Star Belgrade in their last Champions League match. I expect to see an exciting match here at Old Trafford, and I don't fancy either team to post a clean sheet. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-09-19 | Manchester United v. Fulham OVER 2.5 | Top | 3-0 | Win | 100 | 30 h 18 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Over 2.5. The Red Devils are a different team since they sacked Jose Mourino. They have really opened up with a less conservative style of play, and the results speak for themselves. Wins over Cardiff City, AFC Bournemouth and Huddersfield Town have come by a combined score of 12-3. They will play at Fulham Saturday, and Fulham has conceded a Premier League worst 55 goals this season. They lost 4-1 at Old Trafford earlier this season, and four of the last five matches between these clubs have seen at least four goals. Fulham scored four goals in a 4-2 win over Brighton Hove Albion in their last home game, and they've scored at least once in five straight at home. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-15-18 | West Ham United v. Fulham OVER 2.5 | Top | 2-0 | Loss | -167 | 23 h 59 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on West Ham vs Fulham over 2.5. Fulham has been by far the worst team in the Premier League this season, and relegation appears inevitable. They have conceded a whopping 40 goals in 16 matches, the most of any team in the Premier League. They have scored four times in their last four matches, but they have just two losses and two draws to show for it. The Hammers come to Craven Cottage off three straight wins, scoring a total of nine goals in those games. West Ham has gone over 2.5 goals in six of their last seven matches. The Hammers have seen at least three goals in each of their last five head to head matches versus Fulham. Take OVER. GL, Jesse Schule |

11-07-18 | Manchester United v. Juventus -1 | Top | 2-1 | Loss | -100 | 264 h 60 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Juventus. Before the season started, I bet on Juventus to win the Champions League: "The Series A champs came very close to winning the Champions League in 2017, losing in the Final to Cristiano Ronaldo and Real Madrid. They lost again to Madrid in last year's competition. Ronaldo is the All Time leading scorer in Champions League play, and was perhaps the most impressive player at the 2018 World Cup. There is no doubt in my mind that he still has plenty left in the tank, and bringing him in will make Juventus the favorite to win this year's competition." They host Manchester United in the second leg of a Champions League tie today, and they completely out-classed the Red Devils at Old Trafford in a 1-0 win in the first leg. Jose Mourino's squad has struggled in the Premier League, and needed an injury time goal just to beat minnows AFC Bourmouth last Saturday. They show no signs of being able to compete with Europe's elite. Take JUVE. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-07-18 | Manchester City v. Liverpool OVER 3 | Top | 0-0 | Loss | -100 | 27 h 52 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Over 2.5. Liverpool will host Manchester City on Sunday, in a meeting between the top two teams in the English Premier League. The Citizens have scored a Premier League best 21 goals in seven matches, while Liverpool has totaled 15 goals. These two teams have a history of scoring plenty of goals, and they have combined for at least three goals in five straight meetings. I expect to see another high scoring affair at Anfield, and a 2-2 draw would be my bold prediction. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
09-16-18 | West Ham United v. Everton OVER 2.75 | Top | 3-1 | Win | 100 | 75 h 18 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Over 2.5. Everton is off to a great start, still undefeated (1-0-3) in four matches. They have scored a total of seven goals in those games, while conceding six. They will play at Goodison Park this Sunday, and goals have been plentiful in games involving West Ham. The Hammers ranked dead last in the Premier League in goals against last season, and they have conceded a league worst 10 goals in four matches this season. I don't see either of these teams posting a clean sheet in this match, and I wouldn't be surprised if we see a 2-2 draw. Everton has played to a 2-2 draw twice in it's four matches this season. Take Over. GL,
Jesse Schule |

09-01-18 | San Jose Earthquakes v. Vancouver Whitecaps -167 | Top | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 30 h 60 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the Vancouver Whitecaps. These teams met just last week in San Jose, and here is what I said about that game: "The Whitecaps have been on a roll of late, going 2-1-2 in their last five overall. They are coming off a 2-2 draw versus the New York Red Bulls, and they have scored 10 goals in their last four matches. They haven't been so great on defense, ranking 20th in the MLS in goals against. The Earthquakes have been almost as bad, allowing 44 goals in 24 matches (16th). The last meeting between these two teams was a 2-2 draw at Vancouver, and the Whitecaps won the previous meeting by a score of 5-0. I am expecting another high scoring affair here tonight." The Whitecaps won that game by a score of 3-2, and they host the last place Earthquakes in Vancouver tonight. This should be an easy win for the home team. Take VAN. GL,

08-18-18 | New York Red Bulls v. Vancouver Whitecaps OVER 2.5 | Top | 2-2 | Win | 100 | 7 h 23 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Over 2.5. The Vancouver White Caps host the New York Red Bulls Saturday, and I expect to see plenty of offense in this game. The Red Bulls are one of the top teams in the MLS, ranking 5th in scoring with 45 goals in 23 matches. Vancouver has been playing much better of late however, and the Whitecaps are a far better team at home. They have scored 23 goals in 11 home matches, and they have scored eight goals in their last three matches overall. The Red Bulls rank 1st in the MLS in goals against, but they should have their hands full here in an away match on the West Coast. Vancouver though has struggled defensively, ranking 20th in the MLS allowing 47 goals in 23 matches. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |

08-12-18 | Manchester City v. Arsenal OVER 2.5 | Top | 2-0 | Loss | -182 | 225 h 13 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the Over 2.5. Manchester City will open it's title defense at home against Arsenal on Sunday, and I expect to see plenty of scoring in this match. Man City scored a Premier League best 106 goals in 38 matches last season. Arsenal on the other hand conceded a whopping 51 goals last season, the most of any team in the top six. That's more goals conceded than Burnley or Newcastle. These two teams have a history of playing high scoring games, totaling 17 goals in the last five matches. All five of those games saw at least three goals. Manchester City has won the last three meetings between the two teams, outscoring the Gunners 9-1 in those matches. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |

07-15-18 | Croatia v. France OVER 2 | Top | 2-4 | Win | 110 | 70 h 45 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Over. I bet against Croatia in their Semifinal match versus England, and here is what I had to say before the game: "Croatia has played some excellent football at this tournament, with impressive wins over Argentina and Nigeria. I think we've already seen the best this team has to offer, and recent performances against Denmark and Russia should give their fans reason to be concerned. Both matches were decided in a penalty shootout, despite Croatia having every opportunity to win the match before it got to that point. Allowing Russia to score a tying goal in the 101st minute in their quarterfinals match was not impressive at all. The Croatians have been beat up in recent matches, and several star players come into this match versus England with fitness concerns." While Croatia managed to win a third consecutive game that was tied after 90 minutes, I have to believe that their luck will run out here against France. The French rolled through their opposition on the way to the Final, despite playing higher ranked opponents on the tougher side of the bracket. They have posted four clean sheets in their last five matches, and unlike Croatia all their wins have come within 90 minutes. I like France to win this game by a score of 3-0. Take Over. GL,

07-14-18 | England v. Belgium +125 | Top | 0-2 | Win | 125 | 45 h 47 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Belgium. These two teams met in the final game of the Group Stages, and Belgium won that game by a score of 1-0. Neither team played any of their starters though, and it was clear that England was strategically tanking in order to get on the weaker side of the bracket. While neither team is going to be all that keen on playing for third place, I think England is worse off mentally than Belgium. That is certainly supported by the comments of manager Gareth Southgate, who said prior to Saturday: "The honest thing is it's not a game any team wants to play in." Given the circumstances, I expect both teams to play a rather loose style, with Belgium's superior talent taking them to a win by a score of 2-1. Take Belgium. GL,

This is a 10* play on Over 2. Croatia has played some excellent football at this tournament, with impressive wins over Argentina and Nigeria. I think we've already seen the best this team has to offer, and recent performances against Denmark and Russia should give their fans reason to be concerned. Both matches were decided in a penalty shootout, despite Croatia having every opportunity to win the match before it got to that point. Allowing Russia to score a tying goal in the 101st minute in their quarterfinals match was not impressive at all. The Croatians have been beat up in recent matches, and several star players come into this match versus England with fitness concerns. England on the other hand seems to be peaking at the right time. Their 2-0 win over Sweden was likely their most impressive so far, and they easily could have added to that tally if they really wanted to. While this version of the Three Lions lacks star power in comparison to teams of the past, they make up for it with youth and speed. I like both teams to score in this match, and I expect a 2-1 Final with England advancing. Take Over. GL,

07-01-18 | Russia v. Spain OVER 2.25 | Top | 1-1 | Loss | -52.5 | 98 h 56 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Over 2. Russia was impressive in it's first two games of the tournament, scoring a whopping eight goals in wins over Egypt and Saudi Arabia. While it's important to consider that they were matched up against two of the weaker teams in the tournament, it's also worth noting that Uruguay beat both those teams by a score of 1-0. It's tough to read too much into Russia's 3-0 loss to Uruguay in their final match of the group stages, because it appeared that they were angling for an easier spot in the bracket. Spain on the other hand came dangerously close to losing, needing a late equalizer against Morocco in their last match. It's hard to be impressed with the Spanish defending, after watching them concede five goals in three matches during the group stages. I can't see either of these two teams posting a clean sheet, and I think it will take at least two goals to win this match. Take Over. GL,

06-28-18 | Belgium v. England | Top | 1-0 | Win | 100 | 219 h 25 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Belgium. I bet on Belgium to win this group before the tournament started, and now they must beat England here today to finish top of Group G. England is coming off a 6-1 win over Panama, with Harry Kane scoring a hat trick. This sets up England for a huge let down against a far superior opponent. As good as England looked against a frustrated Panama side, they weren't nearly as sharp in their first match versus Tunisia. Belgium has won five of their last six matches by a margin of at least three goals. England might have a world class striker in Harry Kane, but Belgium has an entire squad full of mega stars. Belgium has posted a clean sheet in four of it's last six matches, England has conceded at least one goal in four of their last five matches. This English side appears to be grossly overvalued due to recency bias coming off the one sided win over Panama. Take BEL. GL,

06-25-18 | Russia v. Uruguay -0.25 | Top | 0-3 | Win | 100 | 1296 h 53 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Uruguay. Uruguay has won the World Cup in the past, and has been competitive in international competitions in recent seasons. Luis Suarez and Edinson Cavani give them one of the best striker combos in the tournament, and if the defense can hold up they can compete with any team. They get a good draw in the group stages, matched up with Russia, Egypt and Saudia Arabia. This gives them a pretty easy path to the knockout rounds, as the should have little trouble emerging as the winner of Group A. They won their final three matches prior to the tournament by a combined score of 6-0, posting three consecutive clean sheets against Czech Rep, Wales and Uzbekistan. GL, Jesse Schule |

06-19-18 | Japan v. Colombia -145 | Top | 2-1 | Loss | -145 | 71 h 5 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Colombia. Japan comes into the 2018 FIFA World Cup off a 4-2 win over Paraguay in their most recent friendly. Prior to that though they lost three straight to Switzerland, Ukraine and Ghana. Colombia is coming off a pair of scoreless draws, but prior to that they upset France by a score of 3-2. The Colombians were outstanding in the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, and that run included a 4-1 win over Japan in the Group Stages. The South Americans are a well deserved favorite to win this group, and we expect history to repeat itself here against a Japan team that failed to score in two of it's last three matches. Take COL.

This is a 10* play on Liverpool vs Porto to go Over the total. Only Manchester City has scored more goals in the Premier League this season than Liverpool. The Reds have scored nine goals in their last four matches. While they score more than their share, they also have conceded more than their share (31 goals in 27 matches). Porto sits at the top of the Portuguese Liga standings, and only Benfica has score more goals. Porto has scored a whopping seven goals in it's last two matches. Both teams have plenty of firepower, and I expect the first leg of this Champions League tie to be a high scoring affair. Take Over. GL, Jesse Schule |

01-14-18 | Manchester City v. Liverpool OVER 3 | Top | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 9 h 5 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Liverpool vs MNC to go OVER the total. The two highest scoring teams in the Premier League will meet at Anfield on Sunday, and both Liverpool and Man City are undefeated in their last five matches. Both teams are coming off four wins and a draw, and they have both filled the net during that time. City has scored a whopping nine goals in it's last three matches, and 14 goals in it's last six matches. The Reds have scored 14 goals in their last five matches, and nine goals in their last three home matches. As good as Liverpool is at scoring goals, defending isn't a strength for the Reds. They have conceded 25 goals in 22 matches, and five of those came in a 5-0 loss to City in December. Neither team has posted a clean sheet in it's last three league matches, and I expect both teams to score here at Anfield. This should be a high scoring game, and I wouldn't be surprised if it ends in a 2-2 draw. Take OVER. GL, Jesse Schule |

12-10-17 | Manchester City v. Manchester United +0.5 | Top | 2-1 | Loss | -120 | 167 h 8 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Manchester United. The Manchester Derby has been rather one-sided over the last two seasons. United is 3-1-1 in the last five head to head matches against City, and the lone loss came by a score of 2-1 last September. The Red Devils are on top form, scoring seven goals in their last two matches. City scored just five times in three matches prior to last week's game at West Ham. They took maximum points in those matches, but failed to impress. Jose Mourino's squad has conceded a Premier League best nine goals in 15 matches this season. Mourino has been known to play for a draw in situations like this, so a conservative game plan would be no surprise. City will be playing a fourth match in just 11 days, and just four days after a trip to the Ukraine. This looks like a tough spot for the road favorite. Take MUTD. GL, Jesse Schule |

They normally do play well at home though, and they are 2-2-2 at BET365 Stadium this season. Their last home match was a 2-2 draw versus Leicester City, and they've scored five goals in their last three matches. Liverpool has scored seven goals in it's last three matches, and they have conceded four. Only the top two clubs (Manchester and Manchester City) have scored more goals this season than the Reds. These two teams have scored a whopping 13 goals in the last three head to head meetings, and I expect another high scoring game here in this game. Take OVER. GL,

This is a 10* play on West Ham vs Liverpool to go OVER the total. Liverpool has had little trouble filling the net recently, tallying a whopping 15 goals in their last four matches. They won their last Premier League match by a score of 3-0 over Huddersfield Town at Anfield. They will play at West Ham this Saturday, and the Hammers have scored five goals in their last two matches, including a 3-2 win over Spurs in the Carabao Cup. Crystal Palace holds the dubious distinction of allowing a Premier League worst 21 goals, but Liverpool and West Ham aren't far off. The Hammers have given up 19 goals in 10 matches, while Liverpool has conceded 16, while scoring 17. These two teams have scored at least three goals combined in each of the last three meetings, and they've scored eight goals combined in the last two meetings. The last time Liverpool played at West Ham, they played to a 2-2 draw. I expect a similar result here on Saturday.

11-01-17 | Real Madrid v. Tottenham Hotspur OVER 3 | Top | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 8 h 54 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Madrid/Spurs to go OVER the total. The defending champions Real Madrid come to Wembley already on the back foot. They are already losing on aggregate by virtue of Tottenham's away goal in a 1-1 draw in the first leg in Madrid. This is a team that scored 106 goals in 38 league games last season, and Christiano Ronaldo is the all time leading scorer in the Champions League. Tottenham was the highest scoring team in the Premier League last year, and the Spurs have scored 19 goals in 10 matches this season. Their last two games at Wembley were both high scoring, beating Liverpool 4-1 and losing 3-2 to West Ham. Harry Kane didn't play in a loss to Manchester United this weekend, but he's expected to be fit and ready to play against Real Madrid. Tottenham's last home game in the Champions League was a 3-1 win over Borussia Dortmund. I expect to see another high scoring game here at Wembley. Take OVER. GL,

They were outscored 10-2 while losing their first three league matches, but they've played far better football over their last three matches. During that span they've scored four goals while conceding three, going 1-1-1. The one loss came to Tottenham by a score of 3-2. Swansea has only scored three goals in six league games, and those goals came against Crystal Palace and Watford. West Ham has won the last two meetings between the two teams, outscoring the Swans 5-1 in those games. Take WHU. GL,

08-05-17 | Bayern Munich v. Borussia Dortmund +190 | Top | 2-2 | Loss | -100 | 23 h 38 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Borussia Dortmund. Bundesliga Champions Bayern Munich will play Borrussia Dortmund at Signal Iduna Park in the German Cup Saturday. Dortmund finished third in the Bundesliga last season, but they were undefeated at home, boasting a record of 13-0-4 in 17 matches. Dortmund beat Bayern by a score of 3-2 in last year's German Cup, the last meeting between the two teams. These teams have been evenly matched over the last five meetings, going 2-2-1 during that span. Bayern comes into this match with a decimated squad, as starting keeper Manuel Neuer and six other starters are sidelined by injury. James Rodriguez is perhaps the biggest name among the injured, but Arjen Robben and Jerome Boataeng are also key players that will be missed. Bayern is coming into this match in terrible form, coming off a pair of ugly losses by a combined score of 5-0 (versus Liverpool and Napoli). Take Dortmund. GL, Jesse Schule |

07-19-17 | Philadelphia Union +0.5 v. Montreal Impact | Top | 1-2 | Loss | -100 | 65 h 43 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on PHI@MTL to Draw. The Philadelphia Union will play at Montreal on Wednesday, and these two teams appear to be evenly matched. They sit 8th and 9th in the Eastern Conference, with only two points separating the two clubs. They have played three draws in the last four head to head meetings. The Union have earned points in four straight matches, and two of their last three matches have been level after 90 minutes. I think the visitors will be content to play for a draw here, and they have been solid enough defensively to do just that. Take DRAW. GL, Jesse Schule

07-11-17 | Canada +1 v. Costa Rica | Top | 1-1 | Win | 100 | 6 h 51 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Canada vs Costa Rica to draw. Costa Rica will be a big favorite in their Gold Cup match versus Canada, despite looking rather disappointing in a 1-0 win versus Honduras. Canada opened up a 3-0 lead in it's last match versus French Guiana, but they allowed a pair of late goals, and held on to win by a score of 4-2. These teams have played seven times over the last 10 years, and four of those matches finished in a draw. Canada won twice while Costa Rica only managed one win in those seven matches. With both teams coming off a win, playing for a draw wouldn't be a terrible result for either side. GL, Jesse Schule |

07-06-17 | Philadelphia Union v. Sporting Kansas City UNDER 2.5 | Top | 1-1 | Win | 100 | 34 h 27 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on UNDER (PHI@KC) Kansas City is by far the top defensive team in MLS, only conceding 13 goals this season in 19 matches. They boast an undefeated (6-0-3) home record, and have only conceded four goals in those nine matches. Philadelphia has just one victory in seven matches on the road, and the Union rank 14th in MLS in scoring. This looks like a tough matchup for a Philly team that has had some recent success against lesser opponents. Kansas City had to settle for a draw in their last home match versus Portland, but with several key players away from the team due to international duties, it should be considered a positive result. Their top three American players will miss this game as well, as the USMNT is playing Mexico in the Gold Cup. Both teams could be content to play for a draw here, and goals may be hard to come by. Take UNDER. GL, Jesse Schule

07-04-17 | San Jose Earthquakes v. Atlanta United -175 | Top | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 17 h 54 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Atlanta FC. Atlanta is the highest scoring team in the MLS with 35 goals in 18 games. They are coming off a 2-0 road win at Columbus Saturday, and they host the San Jose Earthquakes on July 4th. San Jose is undefeated in it's last five matches, but all of those were home games against lesser teams. Taking on an offensive powerhouse on the road at Bobby Dodd Stadium could prove to be too much to handle for the visitors. Atlanta has won five of seven home matches, while the Earthquakes have lost five of seven away matches. Atlanta has out-scored the opposition 11-3 winning four straight home matches. This could indeed be a blowout. Take ATL. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is a 10* play on ATL@CBJ to go OVER the total. Atlanta is the highest scoring team in the MLS with 33 goals in 17 games. They will play at Columbus on Saturday, and the Crew will look to avenge a 3-1 defeat suffered at Bobby Dodd Stadium two weeks ago. Columbus has conceded an Eastern Conference worst 30 goals, and we should expect a high scoring game here in the rematch. The over is 6-3-1 in Columbus' last 10 overall. The Crew have scored a whopping seven goals in their last two home games, and their last match was a 4-1 win over Montreal. Atlanta has conceded seven goals in their last three road games, and they lost their last match 3-2 at Miami. Take OVER. GL, Jesse Schule

06-23-17 | New England Revolution v. Toronto FC -150 | Top | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 44 h 25 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Toronto F.C.
Toronto suffered a 3-0 loss at New England two weeks ago, setting up a revenge spot here at home tonight. That game was tough for Toronto, playing without several key players who were representing their national teams. New England lost by a score of 2-1 at Chicago last week, and the revolution are 0-5-3 on the road this season. Toronto is coming off a 2-0 home win over D.C. United, and here is what I said prior to that match: "Toronto have all it's big guns for this home match versus D.C. United. Michael Bradley, Jose Altidore and Sebastian Giovinco will all be fit for the first time in over six weeks. Toronto has six wins and two draws in it's last eight home games..." Last week's match was even more one-sided than the score would indicate, as Toronto missed several quality chances in the first half. With last week's game under their belt, and a full week to practice, Toronto's star players will likely only get better. This should be an easy win for the home team. Take TFC. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is a 10* play on Juventus vs Real Madrid OVER 2 goals.
Juventus defeated Monaco by a score of 2-1, winning 4-1 on Aggraget in their Semifinal tie. Real Madrid lost 2-1 to Atletico, but after winning 3-0 in the first leg, they advanced with a 4-2 Aggraget win. These two teams have met four times since 2013, and both teams have scored in all four of those matches. Three of the four matches saw at least three goals scored. History tells us that we should expect goals in the Champions League Final. Both teams have scored in each of the last six Finals, and we haven't seen the a Final match with less than two goals scored since 2002 when Juventus played Italian league rivals Milan. Juventus has been scoring plenty of goals lately, finding the net 11 times in the last five matches. Real Madrid has played nine straight matches with at least three goals, and they've scored a whopping 16 goals in their last five matches. Take OVER. GL, Jesse Schule |

05-24-17 | Manchester United v. Ajax Amsterdam UNDER 2.5 | Top | 2-0 | Win | 100 | 10 h 10 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Manchester United vs Ajax to go UNDER 2.5 goals.
It's been a fairly successful first season in Manchester for Jose Mourinho, and the Red Devils will hope to add some hardware here in the Europa League Final. They are up against a tough opponent though, and I expect a defensive battle with goals being hard to come by. Ajax was the top defensive team in the Dutch League, allowing a league low 23 goals in 34 matches. Manchester United conceded just 29 goals in 38 matches in the Premier League, and only Tottenham conceded fewer. The Red Devils have gone under in seven of their last eight matches, and they've posted five clean sheets during that span. Both their previous Europa League games went under, defeating Celta Vigo 1-0 in the first leg, and then drawing 1-1 in the second match. Mourinho might be even more conservative in his approach with his leading scorer Zlatan Ibrahimovic sidelined by injury. I wouldn't be surprised to see these teams draw in regulation, settling things with added time or penalties. Take UNDER. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is a 10* play on Tottenham Hotspur.
Chelsea clinched the league on Friday, and that may take a little pressure off for Spurs in their final game at White Hart Lane. Manchester United has nothing left to play for in the Premier League, and Jose Mourinho has already admitted that he won't field his best squad for this match. The Red Devils are focused on their Europa League Final match versus Ajax, and they might not provide a lot of resistance for a Spurs team that has been brilliant at home this season. Tottenham is undefeated at home, with 16 wins and just two draws in 18 matches. The Spurs have scored 34 goals and conceded just 16 in those games. They've outscored their opponent's 10-0 in their last three home matches. Take SPURS. GL, Jesse Schule |

05-10-17 | Real Madrid v. Atltico Madrid | Top | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 18 h 60 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Atletico Madrid.
Real Madrid is level on points with Spanish league rivals Barcelona, while Atletico sits 10 points back in the La Liga standings. Atletico returns home for the second leg of this Champions League tie after suffering a 3-0 loss at the Bernabeu last week. It's going to take a miracle for Atletico to advance, needing at least four goals here at home versus Los Blancos. With a comfortable three goal lead, Real Madrid can afford to be conservative. Atletico is a formidable opponent for even the toughest challengers when they play on their home pitch. They are undefeated at home in Champions League play, and 13-3-2 in their domestic league. They have registered clean sheets in six of their last 10 matches, and have scored first in seven of those games. While I don't fancy their chances of overcoming a three goal deficit, they should find a way to win this game at home. Take Atletico. GL, Jesse Schule |

05-03-17 | Juventus v. AS Monaco OVER 2.5 | Top | 2-0 | Loss | -110 | 52 h 25 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Monaco vs Juventus to go OVER the total.
The Series A leaders Juventus will visit Monaco in a Champions League Semi Final match Wednesday, and these teams have contrasting styles. Monaco was the highest scoring team in Europe this season, averaging more than three goals per game. The French side has averaged a goal every 32 minutes at home, and nine of Monaco's last 10 matches have seen at least three goals scored. Juventus has scored at least two goals in five of it's last six matches, but the Italians are known more for their defensive prowess. They have posted clean sheets in seven of their last 10 matches. I expect to see Monaco play an aggressive brand of football here at home, allowing Juventus to take advantage of any mistake with a dangerous counter attack. When all is said and done I expect both teams to score, and we should see an exciting match with at least three total goals. Take OVER. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is a 10* play on Swansea vs. West Ham to go OVER the total.
Swansea City is on the verge of being relegated from England's top league, and shocking defending is to blame. The Swans have conceded a Premier League worst 66 goals this season, and they will play a tough away match at West Ham Saturday. These teams played twice in 2016, and they combined to score 10 goals in those two games. The home side lost both matches by a score of 4-1, which is even more reason for concern for a struggling West Ham club. The Hammers have lost five straight, and they've conceded a whopping 13 goals in those games. Nine of West Ham's last 10 matches have seen at least three goals scored, and up against a desperate Swansea side that badly needs maximum points, I expect to see another barn burner in London Saturday. Take OVER. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is a 10* play on Bournemouth vs Swansea to go OVER the total.
Swansea is just two points clear of the relegation zone, and three points back of Bournemouth in the Premier League table. The Swans have conceded a Premier League worst 61 goals this season, and Bournemouth hasn't been much better, conceding 54 goals. Swansea has seen at least three goals scored in seven of it's last eight games overall. During that span the Swans have scored 13 goals and conceded 16. These teams have a history of playing high scoring games. In three matches over the last two seasons, the Swans have conceded eight goals, scoring just four of their own. All three games saw at least three goals. Take OVER. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is a 10* play on Chelsea vs. West Ham to go OVER the total. Chelsea will play at West Ham Monday, and the Blues are running away with the Premier League title this season. Chelsea comes in as a heavy favorite, but historically they've had trouble with the Hammers. West Ham has scored five goals while going 1-1-1 in the last three meetings between the two teams. The Blues lost their last visit to West Ham by a score of 2-1 back in 2015. Only Liverpool has scored more goals than Chelsea this season, and the Blues have played one fewer game. West Ham has had trouble keeping the ball out of their own net, especially at home where it has conceded a whopping 22 goals in 13 matches. The Hammers have scored five goals in their last three home matches, but they gave up six goals in those games. Five of West Ham's last six games have seen at least three goals scored. Take OVER.

This is a 10* play on Argentina. Argentina and Chile will do battle in the final of Copa America for a second straight year. Chile won last year's final after a penalty shootout, but Argentina is looking good to take revenge this time around. Argentina has won each of its five games here at Copa leading up to the final, and that includes a 2-1 victory against Chile on June 6 in their opener of the group stage. The win was more convincing than the scoreline would suggest as Chile's goal came three minutes into injury time. Chile was fairly lucky in its semi-finals game against Colombia as two quick goals had its opponent completely demoralized and a red card early in the second half made a Colombian comeback near impossible. Argentina thrashed the USMNT 4-0 in its semi-final game and has won each of its last four games by at least three goals. Argentina has almost unparalleled offensive firepower in Lionel Messi, Gonzalo Higuain and Ezequiel Lavezzi, who all found the net against the US. I don't see how Chile can keep Argentina in check over a full 90 minutes. Take ARG. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is a 10* play on Poland. The round of 16 of the European Championship opens with a clash between Switzerland and Poland on Saturday. Both teams enter the knockout stage undefeated, but I think Poland will prove to be the stronger team and advance to the next round. Poland has yet to concede a goal in this tournament and managed to successfully suffocate Germany's fearsome attack in a 0-0 draw in one of their group games. It may have managed just two goals so far and its star striker Robert Lewandowski is still looking for his first shot on target, but the Bayern Munich star is likely to raise his game here in the knockout phase. The Swiss have not been particularly successful with their goal-scoring either and both its goals so far have come as a result of corners. I don't think they'll have much success with their set pieced against the big, strong Polish centre-backs though. Poland has two terrific players in Lewandowski and Jakub Blaszczykowski, the kind of players that win you games. Take POL. GL, Jesse Schule |

06-22-16 | Sweden v. Belgium -114 | Top | 0-1 | Win | 100 | 112 h 49 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Belgium. Belgium managed to rebound from a disappointing loss to Italy in its tournament opener with a strong 3-0 win against Republic of Ireland. It'll now take on the lowly Swedes, and I expect Belgium to record an easy win. Sweden has posed very little offensive threat so far in the tournament and has yet to register a shot on goal after 180 minutes of football. Its superstar Zlatan Ibrahimovic has been efficiently isolated and Belgium's world class centre-backs should be able to contain the enigmatic Swede. Belgium showed its true potential in the last game and a front-three of Eden Hazard, Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku should be enough to have the Swedes sweating bullets. De Bruyne has five goals and as many assists in his last 10 games for the national team while Lukaku has tallied six goals in his last six games. Sweden needs to win but giving up an early goal would be devastating. It'll try to keep the game close and hope to run away with a late goal. I think the Belgians will be the ones to take advantage once Sweden go on the attack though to take down a low-scoring contest. Take BEL. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is a 10* play on Czech Republic. Czech Republic is sitting third in Group D with one point, but could overtake Croatia for second if it was to lose against Spain while Czech defeats Turkey. I think the Czech's will do its part of the job at least and take down the lowly Turks. Turkey is coming off back-to-back defeats against Spain (3-0) and Croatia (1-0). It has been at least one class below its opponent in both games, and that's likely to be the case today as well. Czech is coming off a 2-2 draw against Croatia where a pair of late goals earned it a draw. A morale-boosting point that has the nation right back in contention for a place in the round of 16. Turkey's defense has been among the worst I've seen in the tournament, and the Czechs have plenty of offensive firepower which it will utilize to 100 percent today. It has scored in 12 of its last 13 games of the group stage in the European Championships, and it has won five of the last nine meetings with Turkey. Take CZE. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is a 10* play on Poland. Poland held the mighty Germans to a 0-0 draw in its last game and enters the last round of the group stage tied with Germany at the top of the group. It'll take on bottom dwelling Ukraine today, and the Polish are looking good to hand the Ukrainians a third straight defeat. Goalscoring has been a major issue for the Ukrainian team so far in the tournament, and it has not really created many dangerous chances at all. A lack off offensive threat combined with subpar defending is a recipe for disaster, and that has been the story for Ukraine here in the European Championship finals. It has been outscored 4-0 over its first two games, and first choice goalkeeper Andriy Pyatov could be replaced by Denys Boyko after two unconvincing displays. Poland meanwhile has been extremely organized while defending, and with plenty of motivation against the knocked out and demoralized Ukrainians I think we'll see a comfortable Poland win today. Take POL. GL, Jesse Schule |

06-20-16 | Slovakia v. England -171 | Top | 0-0 | Loss | -171 | 180 h 21 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on England. England is in a prime position to win Group B as it enters the last round of the group stage top of the table with four points. Slovakia is tied for second with Wales at three points but will likely need to go for a victory to secure its place in the next round with Wales facing the lowly Russians in its last game. That should suit England pretty well. Roy Hodgson is expected to make several changes to his starting eleven and give Daniel Sturridge and Jamie Vardy starts up top. The Three Lions trailed Wales by one goal in the last game before the introduction of the speedy duo who single-handedly turned the game around to earn England a 2-1 win. They'll want to show the coach he made the right decision. England has won all three of their previous meetings with Slovakia which has failed to keep a clean sheet in each of its six previous games at a major tournament. While a draw would see the Englishmen progress to the round of 16, I think they'll get plenty of opportunities to take advantage of this sub-par Slovakia defense and run away with the win. Take ENG.

06-13-16 | Belgium v. Italy | Top | 0-2 | Loss | -145 | 15 h 57 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Belgium Belgium was expected to make some serious noise at World Cup in Brazil two years ago, and it must have been pretty disappointing to get knocked out in the last eight. The Red Devils enter the tournament as the highest ranked European team on the FIFA rankings, and with a more experienced but still youthful side this could be its time to shine. Italy on the other hand has been on a steady decline since its runner-up finish at the Euro 2012. It scored just 16 goals in 10 qualifiers, and its main striker, Graziano Pelle, plays for Southampton, a mid-table team in the Premier League. Belgium is stacked with offensive firepower and the trio of Kevin de Bruyne, Eden Hazard and Romelu Lukaku should give a injury-ridden Italy defense plenty of trouble. Take BELGIUM.

This is an 8* play on Poland. Poland is the favorite to clinch second place behind Germany in Group C of the European Championship. It'll face the presuably weakest team of the group in its tournament opener on Sunday when taking on Northern Ireland at Stade de Nice, and I think Poland will take three important points today. Northern Ireland has a team with players from the lower tier of the Premier League or the weaker leagues on the British Islands. It made it to the European Championship finals with hard team work and an easy qualification group, but that won't cut it here in the main tournament. Poland has a fix star in Bayern Munich's Robert Lewandowski who has terrorized top defenders in the German Bundesliga all season and now will come up against two competent, but not great, centre-backs. He's far from the only goal-scoring threath the Poles have though as Arkadiusz Milik is coming off a terrific season with Ajax with 21 goals in 31 games. Milik supplied six assists during the qualification phase, the joint-highest figure of all players. Four of those assists were to Lewandowski so there's no doubt they have a great chemistry. Take Poland. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is a 10* play on England. The English National team has been so disappointing for so long, that they come into this tournament flying under the radar. The English are dogged by a reputation of underachieving, but there is reason to think things will be different this time around. Gone are the old guard of Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard, and this young team features the likes of Jamie Vardy and Harry Kane (top two scorers in the Premier League). It shouldn't be too difficult for England to emerge from this group without suffering a loss. England was the only team that had a perfect record while qualifying for this tournament, led by Wayne Rooney's seven goals. Take the Three Lions. GL, Jesse Schule |

The Citizens still own the second best home record in the Premier League, and United is coming as winners of just one of their last eight away from Old Trafford. The home side will be missing star defender Vincent Kompany, but United comes limping in without Wayne Rooney and Ander Hererra. City has won four of the last six Manchester Derbies, and they've outscored United 5-1 winning the last two home matches. The Red Devils were blanked in their last two away matches, losing 2-0 at Liverpool, and 1-0 at West Brom. Shoddy defense has been a problem all year for United, and we could see a blowout here against one of the highest scoring teams in the Premiership. Jesse Schule |

03-19-16 | Crystal Palace v. Leicester | Top | 0-1 | Win | 100 | 9 h 13 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Leicester City. The Foxes are in the driver's seat in the English Premier League title race, and they come into Saturday's match versus Crystal Palace as winners of seven of their last 10 matches. The bookmakers still don't give them much credit, and we get a far better price on Leicester than we would get if we wanted to back any of the other top clubs in the league. Playing away from Kings Power Stadium hasn't slowed down the Foxes, who have as many wins on the road (9) as they do at home. Crystal Palace has lost five straight home games, and has been out-scored 7-4 while losing two of it's last three league games. A draw would be a great result for the home team here, but I think Palace will be lucky to avoid another loss Take Leicester GL Jesse Schule |

03-05-16 | Leicester v. Watford | Top | 1-0 | Win | 100 | 31 h 11 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Leicester City. Premier League-leading Leicester City will continue their title bid when they visit Watford Saturday afternoon. They were held to a 2-2 draw against West Bromwich Albion their last game, but this should be a more favorable match-up for the Foxes. Watford have struggled for goals lately getting shut out in six of their last eight Premier League matches and they've found the net only six times in their last 10 games. Their main striker Odion Ighalo has scored just one goal in nine Premier League appearances so far in 2016. Six goals are what Leicester have conceded in their last 10 league games while scoring 14. Leicester are the highest scoring team in the top flight this season with 51 goals to their name and striker Jamie Vardy is topping the league with his 19 tallies. He scored one of the goals when Leicester defeated Watford 2-1 at home back in November. With only 10 rounds left of the Premier League season Leicester can not afford any slip ups. Manager Claudio Ranieri will not be satisfied with a point here and we should see Leicester create enough opportunities to finish off the Hornets. Take LEI. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-01-16 | Leicester -135 v. West Bromwich Albion | Top | 2-2 | Loss | -135 | 7 h 26 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Leicester City. The Foxes didn't find the net until the 89th minute in their last home game, a 1-0 win over Norwich. Here is what I had to say prior to kickoff: "The time for doubting Leicester has long passed. Many expected them to fade after a hot start, but with only 13 games remaining, the Foxes are five points clear of Tottenham at the top of the table. Arsenal is tied on points with Spurs, but Tottenham has the edge in goal differential. Jamie Vardy leads the Premier League in scoring with 18 goals, and he's found the net three times in his last three matches". They host West Brom Tuesday, and the visitors don't have a lot to play for at this point. They aren't a contender, and are in no danger of being relegated. The Foxes won 3-2 at West Brom earlier this season, and they should bag maximum points at home today. Take Leicester. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-27-16 | Norwich City v. Leicester -186 | Top | 0-1 | Win | 100 | 104 h 60 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Leicester. The Foxes held off Arsenal until the dying minutes in a 2-1 loss at the Emirates in their most recent Premier League game. I had Leicester +1.5 in that game, cashing in another winner. Here is what I said prior to the game: "The time for doubting Leicester has long passed. Many expected them to fade after a hot start, but with only 13 games remaining, the Foxes are five points clear of Tottenham at the top of the table. Arsenal is tied on points with Spurs, but Tottenham has the edge in goal differential. Jamie Vardy leads the Premier League in scoring with 18 goals, and he's found the net three times in his last three matches" Vardy did find the net in that game, opening the scoring for the Foxes. Leicester needs to bag full points here to stay ahead in the title race, and I expect them to do just that against an inferior Norwich team with suspect defending. Take Leicester. GL, Jesse Schule |

02-12-16 | Roma -103 v. Carpi FC 1909 | Top | 3-1 | Win | 100 | 13 h 23 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on AS Roma. Roma have a big Champions League clash against Real Madrid coming up next week, but first they'll have to overcome Carpi in the Serie A Friday. They won the reverse fixture 5-1 back in September, and they're coming into this game filled with confidence after three consecutive victories over which they've outscored opponents 7-2. The sacking of Rudi Garcia has had desired effect as Roma have recuperated from a somewhat disappointing season up until Luciano Spaletti took over the managerial responsibilites at the club. They're currently sitting fifth in the Serie A, 12 points back of league-leading Napoli and only two points back of a qualification spot to next season's Champions League. They can not afford to throw away points against the lower ranked sides in the league. Carpi are definitely in that category with just 19 points in 24 games and currently in the relegation zone. Midfielder Raffaele Bianco will miss the game due to suspension, and they have several injuries as well while Roma are healthier than ever and will have Radja Nainggolan back from suspension. Take ROMA. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is a 10* play on Leicester City. Former Chelsea manager Claudio Ranieri has worked wonders with Leicester City this season, and they can leapfrog Manchester City and Arsenal for the league-lead with a win here. Chelsea meanwhile have only one win over their last six Premier League games, a 1-0 victory home in London against lowly Norwich, and four wins in 15 league-games for the season. I have a feeling controversial Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has lost the dressing room and the players does not seem to want him there anymore, leading to subpar performances to get rid of "the Special One". While Chelsea's team filled with superstars have under-performed, Leicester's more unknown players have risen to the occasion and Jamie Vardy who played non-league soccer only a couple of seasons ago is leading the league with 14 goals and Riyiad Mahrez is not far behind with 10 tallies. Chelsea are the reigning champions, but the books have failed to adjust to today's reality, and that reality is that Leicester is a much more coherent and hard-working team than Chelsea at the moment. I'll take the team on a roll filled with loyal team-players over an overrated disjointed bunch of prima donnas every day of the week. Take LEI. GL, Jesse Schule |

10-31-15 | Liverpool v. Chelsea -0.5 | Top | 3-1 | Loss | -100 | 7 h 42 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Chelsea. Chelsea are off yet another disappointing performance as they lost to Stoke on penalties in the Capital One Cup Tuesday. They have only 11 points over 10 games in the Premier League, but two of their three wins of the season have come home at Stamford Bridge. They'll host a Liverpool team that won their first game with Jurgen Klopp in charge Wednesday, a 1-0 Capital Cup home-win over Bournemouth, after playing four consecutive draws under their new manager. They've scored only three goals over five road-games in the league this season though and I think they'll struggle against Chelsea here. The Blues are undefeated over the last six head-to-head meetings with three wins to their name and we should see a desperate Chelsea team that can go up on equal points as the Reds with a win today. Take CHE. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is a 10* play on Tottenham Hotspur. A 1-1 draw with local-rivals Everton just before the international break proved to be the straw that broke the camels back as Brendan Rodgers was sacked the very next day. In come charismatic German coach Jurgen Klopp who is supposed to be the saviour and bring Liverpool back to their glory days. He's in for a tough career opener with Liverpool though, Tottenham are undefeated over their last seven games and defeated Premier League-leading Manchester City their last game home at White Hart Lane. Their playmaker and set-pieces specialist Christian Eriksen scored a brace in the 2-2 draw at Swansea in his last game and a number of serious injuries to Liverpool makes me seriously doubt they got what it takes to contain the Dane and the rest of the Spurs here. With Christian Benteke and Danny Ings out injured Daniel Sturridge will lead the line for the Reds, but he's just recovered from a serious injury himself and will likely have to do without the service of playmaker Philipe Coutinho who is dealing with a groin injury.

09-13-15 | Leicester -125 v. Aston Villa | Top | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 2 h 2 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Leicester City. The Tinkerman (Claudio Ranieri) has his club playing great football in the Premier League so far, just one of two unbeaten teams. Manchester City is the only other team without a loss, and a win today would put Leicester in a tie for second in the table with Arsenal and United. Aston Villa sits near the bottom of the table, and it could be a struggle to avoid relegation this season. Villa has some key injuries with Idrissa Gueye suffering a hamstring injury on international duty with Senegal, and Jack Grealish and Adama Traore both doubtful with ankle injuries. The Villians have conceded 11 goals while losing three of their last four away matches, and Leicester has only lost once in it's last 10 home games versus Villa. Take Leicester. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is a 10* play on Arsenal F.C. What was supposed to be an easy round of 16 draw for Arsenal has turned into a nightmare after a highly disappointing performance in the first leg. AS Monaco won 3-1 at the Emirates, and the Gunners now need plenty of goals to advance to the quarter-finals. Goalscoring has not been an issue of late though, as Arsene Wenger's men are coming off four consecutive wins over which they've outscored opponents 9-2. Oliver Giroud has scored three of those and will be looking for revenge after he became somewhat of a scapegoat in the first leg after missing plenty of good opportunities. The home field advantage is usually not as prevalent for Monaco as for most teams. Its stadium only has room for roughly 18,000 spectators, and the people of the principality is not the most fanatic football fans you'll find. Monaco is sitting only fourth in the weak Ligue 1, while Arsenal is battling for the top spot in the mighty Premier League. Arsenal is the superior team, and I think it'll show it today. Take ARS.
