Our selection is on Benfica to cover the goal line against Chelsea on Saturday at 4:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Benfica played really well in the Group Stage and beat Bayern Munich to win the group in the last game.

It's got a really good bracket draw with the winner of this game played either Botafogo or Palmeiras.

Benfica is better than people give it credit for and will give Chelsea a hard time today.

Chelsea finished 4th in the Premier League but had a hard time at times with some of the worse teams.

It's going to need to be at it's best -- but we think that the most probable outcome is a draw after regulation.

We're on Benfica to win or send it to extra time.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on the Mamelodi Sundowns VS Borussia Dortmund game to finish OVER the total on Saturday at 12:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Mamelodi Sundowns was only able to score one in its first game but it loves to score in it's own league back home.

In 24 games, it's scored 65 total goals and has a goal difference of +52.

Borussia Dortmund scored a lot during it's season too -- 71 goals in 34 games.

It also allowed 51 goals in those 34 games too.

We think that this game will be a lot higher scoring the both of these teams' first games.

We're on the OVER.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on Flamengo to cover the goal line against Chelsea on Friday at 3:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Flamengo won it's first game in the group stage against ES Tunis and are at the top of the group with Chelsea

South American teams are playing really well and we think that the trend will continue today.

It's got a lot of Brazilian national team players on it's team.

Chelsea also won it's first game but it wasn't as easy as people thought it would look.

It only scored two goals against an MLS team that barely made it's way into this tournament.

We're on Flamengo to at least get a draw today.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on Borussia Dortmund to defeat Fluminense on Tuesday at 12:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Borussia Dortmund ended it's German Bundesliga season with five wins in a row to get into a Champions League spot for next season.

Dortmund plays better competition all year round and are the definite favorites today.

Fluminense has done alright in the Brazialian top league but has allowed almost as many goals as it has scored this season.

It's currently in the middle of it's season and will have to play a lot more games than it's used to in a short period of time.

We think that Dortmund's prepared well coming in and will win it's first Club World Cup game.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on Morocco to defeat Tunisia on Friday at 4:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Morocco has guys like Hakimi on it's team and is the favorite today.

It's been really good in international soccer since the last World Cup and it's got talent at every position.

Tunisia leads it's World Cup Qualifying group right now but it doesn't have much competition in it's group.

This is a big change in level for it and we think it will have trouble.

We're on Morocco to win this match.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on Aston Villa to defeat Manchester United on Sunday at 11:00am ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Aston Villa is in 6th place right now. It would play in the Europa League next season if this stands.

Villa could bump up if one of the teams in the top three lose or draw and it wins this game.

It's going to do everything it can against the tired Man U team that just lost in the Europa League Final.

Manchester United will be more tired than it normally would be today.

It will probably want to finish the season with a point at least. But, this is a really hard game for it.

We think that Villa will win this game.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on the Colorado Rapids to defeat St. Louis City on Saturday at 9:30pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Colorado won it's last game against Real Salt Lake and hopes to keep winning this weekend.

The Rapids are one of the top teams in the West, going by talent.

They have a lot of skill at every position and will be in deep playoff run contention by the end of the season.

St. Louis City has not been in great form and has won just two games in the MLS this season.

It's got five draws, but it's lost half of it's games this season and will probably keep having trouble.

We're on the home team today.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on the Torino @ Lecce game to finish UNDER the total on Sunday at 2:45pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

There's a pretty big drop off from Como to Torino in the Serie A standing.

Torino has scored just one goal over it's L3 games this season in Italian soccer.

It's allowing goals, but today's opponent doesn't score too many.

Lecce has to play better defense too because if it doesn't, it will be relegated.

We're on the UNDER.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on the New York City FC to defeat New York Red Bulls on Saturday at 4:30pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

New York FC should be winning more than it has. It's a lot better of a team than the Red Bulls.

NYFC is 4-2-1 all time at Citi Field.

New York Red Bulls are actually ahead of NYFC by goal difference. But, is off a loss in it's last game.

The Red Bulls have lost two of the L3 games against New York City FC.

We're on the Pigeons today.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on the Genoa @ Napoli game to finish UNDER the total on Sunday at 2:45pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Genoa is mid table and is the big underdog in this game on Sunday.

It's scored less than a goal a game this season and are on the road today against the team at the top of the standings.

Genoa has scored only six goals over it's L6 games in the Serie A.

Napoli has allowed only 0.7 goals a game this year too. We don't think it allows a goal in this game.

The Blues have scored less than two goals in three straight games -- shutting out their opponents in all three.

We think this game stays UNDER.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on Borussia Monchengladbach to cover the goal line against Bayern Munich on Saturday at 12:30pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Borussia Monchengladbach is on the road today but has actually won or drawn in nine of their 16 road games this year.

It's road record is nearly identical to it's home record.

Borussia Monchengladbach has a lot more to play for today with a position to play in a Europe tournament this season still up for grabs.

Bayern Munich might be at home where it's most dangerous. But, it's already won the league.

Bayern shouldn't have as much intent as it normally would if the league wasn't wrapped up already.

We're on the visitors to cover the goal line this weekend.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on Barcelona FC to defeat Inter Milan on Tuesday at 3:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Barcelona was down 2-0 early in the first leg and came back to tie 3-3.

Barca hasn't been playing at it's official home when it plays at home this season with its stadium under renovation.

It's treated every game like a road game and even a tough environment in Italy shouldn't slow it down.

Inter Milan hasn't been playing too well in its last games before the first leg.

It did win against Verona on Saturday but that was expected from Milan.

Lewandowski is available for Barcelona today and he will make a difference if he plays.

We're on FCB.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on FC Cincinnati to defeat New York City FC on Saturday at 3:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

FC Cincinnati is 7-2-1 this season, has won five games in a row.

It's in third in the Eastern Conference right now when its opponents are not in a playoff spot.

Cincinnati has been a top team in the East for many years now.

New York City FC has lost three of its L5 games.

It's at home today -- but are going to be in for a hard game against a really good team.

We think that this game could end in a draw.

We like Cincinnati to cover.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on the Orlando City SC @ Chicago Fire game to finish OVER the total on Saturday at 8:30pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Orlando just scored three goals against Atlanta in a win last weekend.

It's had three scoreless games this year, but has scored/allowed 30 goals over its 10 games this season in the MLS.

Chicago is playing a lot better than last season and has scored 18 goals in 10 games.

But, the Fire have also allowed 22 goals, which makes them have 40 combined goals in those ten games with their opponents.

In Chicago's last game, it allowed seven goals to Nashville.

We think a hot Orlando team will be able to score a bunch, and that Chicago will be able to answer on Saturday.

The OVER is our play.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on the Paris St. Germain @ Strasbourg game to finish as a DRAW on Saturday at 11:00am ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

This is a really unique position for PSG. It had its Champions League Semi Final on Tuesday and has the second leg this week,

Paris will probably play most of its bench -- even though its still really good, still not top level like its starters.

That means that there's going to be questions if PSG will show up today on the road against a really good team.

Strasbourg has nine wins at home in 15 games, but has also drawn in five of those games.

It's still hoping to get a spot in a European event next year and a draw would be a great result.

We think that the draw is the most likely outcome today.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on the Wolverhampton Wanderers @ Manchester City game to finish OVER the total on Friday at 3:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Wolverhampton has scored eight goals over its last three games this season.

The Wanderers have also scored at least one goal in 13 straight games this year.

Machester City is favored to win today's game by more than a goal. If Wolves can score, which we think it can. It should go OVER.

City has not been at its best at all this year -- but has scored 11 goals over its L4 games.

Manchester City is still trying to keep a Champions League spot for next season. Every one of these last four games means something.

We're on the OVER today.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on Liverpool FC to defeat Leicester City on Sunday at 11:30am ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Liverpool hasn't been playing its best in the Premier League lately. It could win the league title this weekend if Arsenal loses though.

The Reds beat Leicester by two goals in December in the game between these two teams.

Leicester City re-joined the EPL this season after winning the Championship. It will go back down next season.

The Foxes have lost nine of their L10 games (draw in the other one) and lost by more than one in seven of those games.

We're on the best team in the EPL today.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on the Newcastle United @ Aston Villa game to finish OVER the total on Saturday at 12:30pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Newcastle is back to scoring like its the top team in the Premier League right now.

It's scored 12 goals over its L3 games and has won all three games really easily.

The Magpies will be expecting a back and forth game like Aston Villa had against PSG during this week in the UCL.

Aston Villa is a team that can strike at any given moment as well.

It's scored three goals in back-to-back games -- six total -- and should be focussed on winning today after being eliminated on Wednesday.

We're on the OVER today.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on West Ham to cover the goal line against Southampton on Saturday at 10:00am ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

West Ham played Liverpool really tough in it's last game losing by only one goal.

They haven't won either, but that's now back-to-back games now that the Hammers have played good soccer.

Southampton is the worst team in the Premier League and it isn't really close at all.

It has just two wins and four draws in 32 total games on the season.

We think that the Hammers will be good enough today to win by a goal at minimum, more than likely more than that.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on Real Madrid to defeat Arsenal on Wednesday at 3:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

We don't think that Real Madrid played too badly against Arsenal in the first leg. It took two wonder strikes from Declan Rice to give the Gunners more motivation to get a third.

Real Madrid will be back at home for the second leg and it should be able to at least get one goal back and avoid humiliation.

It's 5-1 so far playing at the Bernabeu in the Champions League.

Arsenal did what it needed to do. But, it won't think that the job is done quite yet.

We believe that the Gunners will play more compact and defensive in this game, leaving them less opportunities to pad onto the lead.

Real Madrid will have its chance and we think that it gets at least one goal back on the aggregate score.

AAA Sports

Our selection is the Houston Dynamo FC @ Los Angeles Galaxy game to finish UNDER the total on Saturday at 10:30pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Houston won its first game of the season last weekend and has a record of 1-4-2 this season.

It's only scored five goals this season over its seven games.

Los Angeles is still searching for its first win. It should be hoping that this is the game that it gets that win.

LA Galaxy is not scoring a lot of goals either. It's scored just five goals too this season.

We think that both team's attack aren't too dangerous and that goals will be hard to come by again tonight.

We're on the UNDER.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on the Vancouver Whitecaps to defeat Austin FC on Saturday at 7:30pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Vancouver is on fire to start the season and we don't see them slowing down.

The Whitecaps are 5-1-1 this season and only lost when the team wasn't at full strength at all.

They were missing both Brian White and Ryan Gauld in that game.

Austin FC is going to try everything it can with its 4-2-1 record.

But, the explosiveness that the attack of the Whitecaps have up front will be too hard for Austin to control in the end.

We're on Vancouver at home.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on Lazio @ Bodo Glimt to finish OVER the total on Thursday at 12:45pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Lazio is in sixth in the Serie A this season. It's conceded a lot of goals though for being sixth.

While scoring 51 goals in the Serie A, it's allowed 42 goals. Combined, that's 93 goals in 31 games which is more than three goals.

Bodo Glimt loves to score a lot of goals itself.

Over its L11 games across each and every competition that its been involved in, it's scored 31 goals.

We're looking for this early match to see quite a few goals.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on Manchester City to defeat Manchester United on Sunday at 11:30pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Manchester City might not have played as it would have liked to have this season. But, its not going to want to lose this game.

City is still fighting to get back into the Champions League for next season, just a single point behind Chelsea for fourth spot.

Manchester United is down in 13th and lost its last game to Nottingham Forest.

United did have the ball for most of that game, but that will be taken away from them here.

Man City will have the ball for the majority of the game and we think it will win.

We're on City.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on VFB Stuttgart to defeat Bochum on Saturday at 9:30am ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

VFB Stuttgart is in 11th in the Bundesliga and has gotten a result in 17 of its 27 league games this season.

It beat RB Leipzig in the DFB Pokal Semi-Finals on Wednesday and should be in good spirits for today's game.

Bochum is in 17th (of 18 teams) in the Bundesliga and has only won five of 27 games this year.

It's lost two of its L3 games as well.

We're on Stuttgart today -- away from home it should be just fine.

AAA Sports

Our selection is on Crystal Palace to defeat Southampton on Wednesday at 2:45pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Crystal Palace is winning a lot right now. It's won six games in a row now including every competition.

Palace is also scoring a lot of goals this season and a good part of it is because of Mateta.

Mateta has 12 goals this season in 25 starts. He should get on the score board again today.

Southampton is the worst time in the Premier League, and by quite a bit.

The Saints are going to be sent down to the Championship for next season and don't have a lot to play for.

We're on Crystal Palace today.

AAA Sports

We like AS Roma to defeat US Lecce on Saturday at 3:45pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

AS Roma went into the International Break on a six game winning streak in Serie A games.

It's won four road games in a row in Serie A as well.

Lecce has lost four matches in a row in Serie A.

It's not playing well, home or away,

Roma should be able to pick up where it left off before the break.

We're on the road team today.

AAA Sports

We like the Chelsea @ Arsenal game to finish UNDER the total on Saturday at 9:30am ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Chelsea is playing really well at the back as it hasn't given up a goal in back-to-back games.

The Blues are red hot right now and should be difficult to crack against an injured Arsenal attack.

Arsenal probably will have Martinelli back. But, its still missing Havertz and Saka.

The Gunners should be focused on defense and getting the clean sheet before they stop playing for a couple of weeks.

We think that the UNDER is the right play here.

AAA Sports

We like Nottingham Forest to defeat Ipswich Town on Saturday at 11:00am ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Nottingham Forest hasn't been at its absolute best lately, but it won its last game 1-0 versus Man City.

Forest has been great this season, standing in 3rd in the present table.

Ipswich is well below Forest in the standings, in a relegation position at the bottom right now.

Ipswich Town has lost four straight matches, three of those coming in the Premier League.

We're on Nottingham Forest today.

AAA Sports

We like Liverpool FC to defeat Southampton FC on Saturday at 10:00am ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Liverpool somehow won their road game against PSG in the Champions League on Wednesday. It shockingly was out shot 27 (10) to 2 (1) in that game.

It now comes back home and faces the worst team in the Premier League. We think that this game will be exactly what Liverpool needs.

Liverpool has beaten Southampton in 14 of the L15 games between them.

We know that this line is -2.5. But, we also think that Liverpool could go three up in a single half.

Southampton has lost four games in a row (includes FA Cup match) and has been outscored 12-1 in those four games.

Its L2 games, both of them were 4-0 defeats.

We're on Liverpool to win big this morning (evening in England.)

AAA Sports

We like Borussia Dortmund to defeat St. Pauli on Saturday at 9:30am ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Borussia Dortmund isn't having its best season, that's for sure.

But, the Black and Yellow are off their biggest win of the Bundesliga season, winning 6-0 against Union Berlin.

FC St. Pauli is in 15th in the Bundesliga and has won just six games in 23 tries this season -- scoring 18 goals.

If St. Pauli cannot score, that's going to be a huge problem against a terrific Dortmund goalscoring team.

We're on BVB on Saturday.

AAA Sports

We like A.F.C. Bournemouth to defeat Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday at 10:00am ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Bournemouth is in 5th place in the Premier League right now just one point behind Manchester City for a spot in the Champions League of next season.

The Cherries are playing great right now and have looked terrific all season long.

They are on a 6-1-1 run currently and that includes seven games in the EPL and one FA Cup game.

Wolves are 17th out of 20 teams in the Premier League and trying to stay out of the relegation zone. (bottom three teams.)

Even though Wolverhampton is playing pretty well right now, it will have trouble playing this game at the Vitality Stadium in Bournemouth.

The home team is the right play here.

AAA Sports

We like Borussia Monchengladbach to defeat FC Augsburg on Saturday at 9:30am ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Borussia Monchengladbach is starting to heat up at the right time of the season.

It's won three of its L4 games (drawing the other) in the Bundesliga and two of those four opponents are above it in the standings.

Monchengladbach have scored nine more goals this season than its opponents have today.

Augsburg hasn't won a game in February in four tries. It's scored just one goal over those four games.

We think that the home team wins this one.

AAA Sports

We like the Lazio @ Venezia game to finish UNDER the total on Saturday at 9:00am ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Lazio is in 5th in the Serie A right now and have some bad news after its last game.

Striker Valentin Castellanos will be out for up to a month with a thigh injury. He's scored 9 goals this season.

Venezia is near the bottom of the Serie A and is averaging less than a goal a game this year.

It hasn't scored in back-to-back games now and we are expecting Venezia to be held without a goal again today.

Even though we can get a 2.75 at a slightly more expensive price, we think that 2.5 is the right play on the UNDER in today's game.

AAA Sports

We like Galatasaray to defeat AZ Alkmaar on Thursday at 12:45pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Down 4-1 on aggregate, Galatasaray needs to score and score often in this afternoon's game.

In Turkey, Galatasaray has been straight up extraordinary. It's won 20 of 23 games and tied the rest.

It should be able to get back into this contest and we believe that it will.

AZ Alkmaar was quite lucky seeing a red card from Gala in the 51st minute of the opening game.

It proceeded to score two more goals which really shakes things up.

Playing at home, we think that Galatasaray win by at least one today and probably even more.

AAA Sports

We like AS Monaco to cover the goal line in this game against Benfica on Tuesday at 3:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

AS Monaco is down a goal in this 2-matched Playoff Round. That means it must win this game to even give itself a chance.

The French team should be feeling good after winning 7-1 on Saturday in their Ligue 1 game.

Monaco is going to do whatever it can to win this game, and we think that even if it can't get this game past regulation time, it will at least find a draw (meaningless for Monaco.)

Benfica has beaten Monaco twice now already in the Champions League. But, there's been a red card shown in both of those games.

Benfica will not have Angel Di Maria and Tomas Araujo for this game after they both got injured in the first game.

Monaco goes for it all and will give it its best. We will take the GOAL LINE.

AAA Sports

We like Atletico Madrid to defeat Celta De Vigo on Saturday at 12:30pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Atletico Madrid is at home on Saturday where its yet to lose a game in 12 La Liga matches (9-3-0.)

ATM is 7-0 over the L7 games between these two teams.

Celta De Vigo is very good at home. But, very bad on the road. Its got a 1-2-8 record when playing in road games.

We talked about Celta De Vigo being drawless/winless in seven straight games against Atletico. Well, it's been 12 games in a row without a win.

Atletico Madrid is the right play.

AAA Sports

We like the Everton @ Crystal Palace game to finish UNDER the total on Saturday at 12:30pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Everton is off a 2-2 draw against Liverpool midweek. But, it's actually been playing very good defense this season.

With how it sits in 15th place, Everton has allowed just 30 goals through 24 games in the EPL this year.

Crystal Palace has been playing ruthless defense over this last month now.

Over its L6 games in the FA Cup/EPL, it's allowed just two total goals.

Both teams should be content with how they've been playing recently and will be happy even if a 0-0 or 1-1 game happens.

The UNDER is the right play.

AAA Sports

We like the A.F.C. Bournemouth @ Southampton F.C. game to finish OVER the total on Saturday at 10:00am ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Bournemouth is scoring a lot of goals right now. Its scored 18 goals over its L6 games even with scoring 0 against Liverpool.

The Cherries are trying to climb the standings even more and get involved in the race to get to Europe.

They've also given up 28 goals in 24 games this season. That means Southampton could get one.

Southampton won its last EPL game 2-1 against Ipwhich. It's allowed 15 goals over its L5 EPL games though.

The Saints are in last in the Premier League and will be trying to avoid a 20th defeat. It will be difficult as they've given up more than two goals a game this season.

We think that Bournemouth could go OVER this total by themselves. Play on the OVER.

AAA Sports

We like Borussia Dortmund to defeat Bochum on Saturday at 9:30am ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Borussia Dortmund is having a down year in the Bundesliga, yet still is performing well in the Champions League.

That means that BVB still has a lot of skill and should be able play well against the team with the worst record in the league.

Dortmund has won back-to-back road games. That includes a 3-0 win over Sporting Lisbon on Tuesday in the UCL.

Bochum hasn't won a single game in a month.

Its lost back-to-back games against Dortmund and its been six straight games without a win for it in games between these two teams.

Dortmund is the right play.

AAA Sports

We like Fenerbahce to defeat Anderlecht on Thursday at 12:45pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Fenerbahce has won back-to-back games now and have scored seven goals and allowed none overall.

The side from Turkey didn't have the most compelling group stage, getting in last. But, should be able to win at home.

Fenerbahce is 9-0-1 when playing at home this season (Turkish Super Lig only.)

Anderlecht is the 4th best team in Belgium this season and has seven total loses domestically.

Internationally, it should find it even harder to capture wins.

We think that Fenerbahce win at home in leg-one.

AAA Sports

We like Benfica to defeat AS Monaco on Wednesday at 3:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Benfica is on a roll winning three games in a row including 2-0 in the Champions League against Juventus.

The Eagles have given up less than a goal a game this season in the Liga Portugal.

Monaco is not playing very well right now, losing two of its L3 games and allowing seven goals over those games.

Les Rouge et Blanc are the fourth best team in France so far this season -- Benfica is 2nd in Portugal.

We think that Benfica can get at least a draw out of this game.

AAA Sports

We like Paris St. Germain @ Stade Brestois 29 to finish OVER the total on Tuesday at 12:45pm ET for a number of reasons. Jere are some of the more important ones:

Paris St. Germain is quite large favorites for this game, and will find the back of the net in this game, multiple times.

PSG has scored 18 goals against Brest, over the L6 games against each other, averaging three a game.

Brest has scored in all of those matches as well, scoring twice in three of them.

Stade Brestois 29 has also scored two goals in three games in a row, which includes a game against PSG (5-2 loss.)

In Ligue 1 this season, Brest has given up 36 goals which is fourth most.

We think that both teams score and this game goes OVER the total today.

AAA Sports

We like K.R.C. Genk to defeat Cercle Brugge on Saturday at 2:45pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones: 

Genk is on top of the Belgian Pro League this season with 17 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses. 

'The Smurfs' improve those numbers to 11 wins and 1 draw at home so far this season. That's a 92% win percentage. 

They've also scored 22 more goals than their opponents today. 

Cercle Brugge is in ninth place with just 7 wins in 24 games this season. 

On the road, it has just two wins in 12 games. Six losses over those games. 

Genk is the top team in Belgium and will prove it again on Saturday. 

AAA Sports

We like Bayer Leverkusen to defeat Hoffenheim on Sunday at 11:30am ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Bayer Leverkusen has some work to do if it wants to catch Bayern Munich for top spot in Germany.

Leverkusen beat Sparta Prague 2-0 on Wednesday in the UEFA Champions League. Now, this should be another effortless win for last seasons champs.

Hoffenheim did win against Anderlecht in the UEFA Europa League on Thursday, but conceded three goals in the meantime.

Hoffenheim's last game against a strong opponent away from home was a 5-0 loss to Bayern Munich.

Bayer Leverkusen will win today by more than the spread here.

AAA Sports

We like Mallorca @ Atletico Madrid to finish UNDER the total on Saturday at 12:30pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Atletico Madrid is the best team in the league defensively.

In fact, it has allowed just 14 goals this season through 21 games which is .67 goals allowed a game.

Atletico has seen three straight La Liga games finish with two goals or less.

In seventh, Mallorca is averaging less than a goal a game this season itself.

That's really surprising in the top half of the league.

It combined for a slight bit over two goals a game with its opponents.

This game will stay UNDER the total on Saturday.

AAA Sports

We like Manchester United @ Steaua Bucuresti to finish OVER the total on Thursday at 3:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones: 

Manchester United hasn't lost yet in the Europa League, but its been playing very close games. 

Man U has allowed nine goals through seven games so far in this competition. 

The Red Devils have also seen 60 total goals combined with their opponents in 23 games in the EPL this season -- 2.6 a game. 

Bucuresti has been quite good in the Europa League too, scoring 10 goals and allowing seven in seven games. 

We think both teams score today and it goes OVER this 2.5 goal total. 

AAA Sports

We like the Liverpool FC @ PSV Eindhoven game to finish UNDER the total on Wednesday at 3:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Liverpool can score a lot, but should be focussed more on not conceding today to finish on top of the standings of the Champions League opening round.

The Reds have allowed just four goals over their L6 games this season.

They have also seen three goals or fewer in three of their L4 games.

PSV is in a great position right now. It's already qualified to the next round as well.

PSV Eindhoven find it quite easy to score in Netherlands, but this is the most difficult match that its had all season long.

Both teams like to score, but we think that anything more than three goals is great towards the UNDER.

This one gets three goals or less.

AAA Sports

We like Aston Villa to defeat West Ham on Sunday at 11:30pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Aston Villa has not had the same season as last year, but has team been very good this season.

Villa is back at home on Sunday after three games on the road. It has won back-to-back home games this season.

The Villans are well ahead of their foes today, leading them by 10 points in the EPL table.

West Ham is not in great form. Its lost four of its last five games, including an FA Cup game against Aston Villa two weeks ago.

West Ham is allowing the fifth most goals out of any team in the Premier League this season (43 in 26 games.)

We think Villa wins this one at home easily.

AAA Sports

We like Atletico de Madrid to defeat Villarreal on Saturday at 10:15am ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Atletico Madrid did not have its best game last weekend in a loss to Leganes.

Los Colchoneros turned it around by beating Bayer Leverkusen mid week.

That makes seven wins in a row at the Metropolitano in Madrid for Atletico.

Villarreal looked good on Monday against Mallorca. But, its lost three of its L4 games played away from home.

Villarreal is also conceding a lot of goals this season. Its given up 31 goals, which is the 6th most in La Liga.

Atletico wins its second straight game on Saturday at home.

AAA Sports

We like Vfb Stuttgart to defeat FSV Mainz 05 on Saturday at 9:30am ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Stuttgart is one of the hottest teams in German soccer right now with four straight wins.

Possibly better than that, Stuttgart has eight wins over their L9 games overall.

It's also found a result in five straight games played away from home.

FSV Mainz has lost back-to-back matches against Leverkusen and Union Berlin.

Nine games in a row between these two teams have gone in favor of Stuttgart or a draw.

We think Stuttgart wins this one too, but are pleased to get a push with a draw today.

AAA Sports

We like Pfc Ludogorets Razgrad to defeat Fc Midtjylland on Thursday at 3:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Ludogorets is leading the Bulgarian First League right now, with 17 wins, two draws and no loses this season.

Yes, the Eagles haven't won yet in the Europa League. But, they've come close and are at home today.

Midtjylland is 2nd in the Danish Superliga with four loses in its league.

The Wolves have won a couple of games in this competition, but play much, much worse on the road.

They are 3-3-3 on the road in their league this season, and 1-0-5 over their L6 across each competition.

A win is needed here for Ludogorets against one of the weakest teams and with time winding down, this would be great to get back into the middle of the pack and avoid elimination.

AAA Sports

We like the Aston Villa @ AS Monaco game to finish OVER the total on Tuesday at 12:45pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Aston Villa loves high scoring matches. In the EPL this season, its seen 67 combined goals in 22 games. That's more than three a game.

Villa performed very well in its last game against Arsenal drawing 2-2.

It's seen at least three goals in eight of its L9 games in all competitions this season.

AS Monaco isn't in the best of form right now.

Being at home could see them finding the back of the net even a couple of times though.

We think that both teams score and at least one of these teams find the back of the net twice on Tuesday.

AAA Sports

We like Lazio @ Hellas Verona to finish UNDER the total on Sunday at 12:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Lazio is near the top of the Serie A standings this year and have locked down defensively lately.

Three straight games of Lazio have finished UNDER the 2.5 goal line.

Hellas Verona is near the bottom of the Serie A, and have a hard time scoring the ball.

The Yellow and Blues have failed to score a single goal in back-to-back games.

Four of the L5 games between these two teams have stayed UNDER the 2.5 goal line.

We think this one stays UNDER that line as well.

AAA Sports

We like Vfb Stuttgart to defeat SC Freiburg on Saturday at 9:30pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Stuttgart is 5th in the Bundesliga right now and has won back-to-back games.

The home team is also 5-2-2 playing in Stuttgart this year.

Freiburg is 8th in the Bundesliga and are not the best team when playing away from home.

In fact, the Breisgau-Brazilians are just 2-2-4 on the road this season.

Stuttgart will be extra hungry for this win to revenge its loss to Freiburg in Augus.t

AAA Sports

We like Werder Bremen to defeat Heidenheim on Wednesday at 2:30pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Werder Bremen is right in the thick of the mix right now. A win here would be huge to bump up in the standings.

The River Islanders have four wins over their L5 matches played in all competitions.

They are also looking for revenge after losing to Heidenheim last season both times.

Heidenheim are in a relegation playoff spot right now. A loss here could be very costly.

The away side has lost six of its eight games played on the road this season.

We think that Werder Bremen get it done at home.

AAA Sports

We like Manchester City to defeat Brentford on Tuesday at 2:30pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Manchester City won a much needed game in the FA Cup on Saturday against Salford City. It was a 8-0 game.

That should bring City's spirits up a bunch for this game on the road against Brentford.

"The Citizens" are a team that shouldn't be getting defeated as much as they are.

Brentford can be very good on its day, but isn't in great form at the moment.

The Bees lost on Saturday to Plymouth Argyle and have lost a lot of games recently.

We think that Man City goes on a winning streak now. This is terrific value on them today.

AAA Sports.

We like Olympique de Marseille to defeat Stade Rennes on Saturday at 3:05pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Off back-to-back dominating wins (one in Ligue 1 and one in the French Cup) Marseille are in 2nd place in the French Ligue 1 right now.

Marseille is scoring a lot of goals this season, only behind PSG for the most goals in the league.

Its also gone six straight matches without tasting defeat.

Stade Rennes are in 13th in Ligue 1 after losing to Nice last game.

Rennes are too in-and-out at the moment and we don't see them winning this game.

Marseille should take it, but we'll take the goal spread line today.

AAA Sports

We like Leicester City @ Aston Villa to finish OVER the total on Saturday at 10:00am ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Leicester City has hit a bit of a rough patch in terms of winning games. Now in a relegation spot, every game counts and Leicester need to take even more chances.

The Foxes have given up at least two goals in eight of their L9 matches.

Eight of their L9 games have also seen at least three combined goals.

Aston Villa like to score goals and this is the game for them to start getting that going again.

Each of the Villans' L5 games have seen three or more goals.

This one goes OVER the total.

AAA Sports

We like Napoli to defeat Genoa on Saturday at 12:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Napoli is 11-2-3 this season and are 2nd in the Serie A standings.

The Little Donkeys have won three of their L4 matches within the Serie A.

Genoa is 3-7-6 this season and are 13th in the table.

Genoa has also failed to win in four of their L5 matches this season.

We think Napoli is the much better team and will pick up the win.

AAA Sports

We like AC Milan to defeat Hellas Verona on Friday at 2:45pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

AC Milan has not performed to the best of their abilities - in eighth in Serie A right now.

But, rossoneri have been looking forward to this matchup very much.

The Red & Blacks have beaten this Hellas Verona side seven times in a row.

Verona is just outside of the three team relegation line.

The gialloblu are in poor form, even while winning their last match.

Before that game, they had lost four straight outings.

We think AC Milan wins its eighth straight against Verona on Friday.

AAA Sports

We like Feyenoord to defeat Heracles Almelo on Saturday at 3:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Feyenoord hasn't been all that amazing this season, in fourth at the moment in the Eredivisie. But, Feyenoord has won back-to-back games now and has scored 7 goals over those games.

Even though they are in 4th in the standings, The Pride of South have scored the second most goals this season with 35 in 15 games.

Heracles Almelo isn't a very good team, conceding the third most in the Dutch league.

Heraclieden are just ahead of the relegation line, and could be on the verge of just that if they start losing even more games.

Away from home, Feyenoord won 3-0 back in October. This could be a similar result.

AAA Sports

We like the Fulham @ Liverpool game to finish OVER the total on Saturday at 10:00am ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

We all know that Liverpool like to score. Liverpool has scored at least two goals themselves in nine of it's last ten games in all competitions.

The Reds are big favorites again in this match and are expected to score. We think that they could possibly go OVER this total by themselves.

Fulham gives Liverpool a tough test though. Fulham has scored at least a goal themselves in 16 straight matches.

The Cottagers have also scored in each of the L4 games between these two teams.

We think the O/U line is low for today's game.

AAA Sports

We like Bayer Leverkusen to defeat FC Augsburg on Saturday at 9:30am ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Leverkusen's recent run over play has been great. Six straight wins against teams like Bayern Munich, Inter Milan and RB Salzburg.

Bayer Leverkusen is also last season's champions. It has a bunch of swagger that they play with in Bundesliga.

B04 already beat Augsburg this season in August. It looks to make it a third win in a row against them today.

Augsburg has been very in and out over the course of this season. Recently, it has had some good results. But, we don't think that Augsburg will be able to match up with the lineup that Bayer Leverkusen have.

Scoring can become easy for a team like B04 at times. It should score a lot of goals in this game too.

AAA Sports

We like Galatasaray to defeat Malmo Ff on Thursday at 12:45pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Galatasaray have gone 17 straight matches without losing. Over that period, they won 13 of those games.

The Turkish team lead the Turkish Super Lig at the moment by six points. They are clearly the top team in their country.

Galatasaray also have their sights on a higher seed. A win here could shoot them further up the UEL standings.

Malmo have been great domestically but have had some trouble in European play.

In fact, Malmo have lost four out of the five games in this Europa League.

We think Galatasaray will prove to be the best side today even away from home.

AAA Sports

We like PSV Eindhoven to defeat Stade Brestois 29 on Tuesday at 3:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

On fire right now, PSV are 6-0 in their L6 matches in all competitions.

Over those six games t ey've scored 26 goals. They've conceded only five.

The Dutch team have now lost just one game over their L14 games, winning 11 of them.

Brest are starting to feel the wear and tear of playing a very competitive and tough schedule both domestically and in Europe.

The French side have now lost four of their L5 games including a 3-0 loss to Barcelona in their last UCL game.

Brest are 3-1-1 in the Champions League. But, they really aren't all that great. They are the 11th best team in their country right now in Ligue 1.

We think that PSV is much better all around and are in much better playing form right now. They will win this game.

AAA Sports

We like the Udinese @ Monza game to finish OVER the total on Monday at 2:45pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Udinese have been right in the middle of the fact in the Serie A this season. They've seen at least two goals combined in six matches in a row now.

They have allowed 10 goals over their L5 games, which is two goals a game.

Udinese also score a lot from set pieces, which is a weakness of Monza.

Monza have been a lower scoring team this season. That's dragging this total lower than it should be.

They just allowed four goals against a middle table team in Bologna in the Coppa Italia last Tuesday.

We think that this line of 2.0 goals is too low and are expecting at least two goals, most likely three in this game.

AAA Sports

We like the Manchester United @ Arsenal game to finish OVER the total on Wednesday at 3:15pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Manchester United have seen three or more goals in back-to-back games.

The Red Devils have allowed six goals against Arsenal over the L3 games vs them.

Arsenal are scoring a lot right now. They put five past West Ham in one half in their last game.

Arsenal have also seen 13 total goals combined over their L2 games after losing to Sporting CP 5-1 last Tuesday.

The Gunners have now scored 9 goals over their L3 games themselves though.

We think this one sees at least three find the back of the net.

AAA Sports

We like Eintracht Frankfurt to defeat FC Midtjylland on Thursday at 3:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Frankfurt are red hot right now. They've won five matches in a row (Bundesliga/UEL/DFB Cup.)

The German club are doing very well in the Bundesliga this season as they rank 2nd only behind Bayern Munich right now.

Frankfurt have lost just one of their L15 matches in all competitions, and their lone loss was against Bayer Leverkusen.

FC Midtjyllana are a Danish side that are having trouble at the moment.

They are just 1-4-0 over their L5 games overall in all competitions.

We believe that getting Franfurt at + money is a great selection today.

AAA Sports

We like the Borussia Dortmund @ Dinamo Zagreb game to finish OVER the total on Wednesday at 3:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Dinamo Zagreb have scored the most goals in the HNL by quite a margin. But they've also conceded quite a few more than any of the top teams.

The Croatian team is 2-1-1 in the Champions League after a 4-1 with last match week.

They have scored at least two goals in every game so far in the Champions League (10 total) while allowing 12.

Dortmund just beat Freiburg by a score of 4-0 on the weekend giving them 22 goals for in 11 games in the Bundesliga. They've allowed quite a few as well.

Borussia Dortmund are outscoring teams 13-6 in four games this Champions League with a 3-1-0 record.

We think that this one gets at least three goals in Zagreb.

AAA Sports

We like the Brest @ AS Monaco match to finish UNDER the total on Friday at 1:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Monaco are the favorites in this match. We think they'll win, but it will be a close match.

The home team has failed to score in back-to-back matches at home. These recent results could impact today's ability to find the back of the net as well.

Monaco have allowed just eight goals in 11 games this season.

Brest have been very good this season in the Champions League. They have yet to lose with a 3-1 record.

In Ligue 1 though, they've had their trouble scoring some goals scoring only 14 in 11 games this year.

We think that they'll live up to the challenge of playing a better team here and limit scoring.

Our play is on the UNDER in this afternoon's Ligue 1 match.

AAA Sports

We like Bayern Munich to defeat St. Pauli on Saturday at 9:30am ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Bayern Munich have regained the throne this season as the top team in Germany so far. We don't see them losing it anytime soon.

The goal scoring ability of Bayern in undeniable. They've scored 32 goals in nine matches which is best by far in the Bundesliga (next best is 23.)

St. Pauli have scored only seven times in nine games themselves this year.

The host have played solid defense. But, this is a completely different task for them.

Bayern hasn't allowed a single goal in four matches in a row outscoring their opponents 13-0 over those games.

We'll lay the goal spread number.

AAA Sports

We like Atletico Madrid to cover the goal spread in this game against Paris St. Germain on Wednesday at 3:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Atletico Madrid are in 3rd in La Liga right now which might seem low compared to some of the teams in the UCL. But, the Spanish side have only lost one game domestically all season long.

A 1-0-2 Champions League record isn't fazing us. We believe that ATM will advance to the knockout phase without much trouble and an upset win against PSG here would go a long way.

PSG have also been so-so so far in this year's Champions League. They are 1-1-1 while being outscored 3-2 in those three contests.

Without their superstar forward (Kylian Mbappe) from last year, the French team isn't as strong up top.

Getting +1.5 goals in what should be a very close match is something we'll always take. Madrid could shock PSG with an outright win here. Good luck.

AAA Sports

We like Bayer Leverkusen to defeat Werder Bremen on Saturday at 12:30pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Bayer Leverkusen haven't nearly been as clinical as last season so far this year. They've suffered a defeat already this Bundesliga season and are off a draw against Brest in the Champions League. But, this is a very good matchup for them.

Werder Bremen play in high scoring games. They've conceded 11 goals over their last four games and that includes a 5-0 loss against Bayern when they were the home team.

Bayer Leverkusen will be able to take full advantage of that in our opinions. Wirtz looked awesome, like always in the UCL affair and they should get Boniface back for this game which will be big for them.

In the last two meetings, Leverkusen have outscored the hosts 8-0. They also won the match before that 3-2.

When all is said and done, the defending Bundesliga champs will run away with this game and win by more than a goal.

AAA Sports

We like Fenerbahce to defeat Manchester United in the UEL on Thursday at 3:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Jose Mourinho faces his former club in a very interesting matchup this Thursday. As the manager of Fenerbahce now, we expect him to have the boys ready to go for this match.

Manchester United have a lot of injuries at the moment. They are missing guys like Bruno Fernandez, Harry Maguire Kobbie Mainoo, Luke Shaw.

Even though the average soccer fan might not know much about Fenerbahce, they have a very solid team. They are a top team in the Turkish Super Lig.

Manchester United are having trouble keeping up with the top teams in the Premier League. They are in 12th right now.

At home, the Turkish side will be eager to get at least a draw here on Thursday.

We believe that they definitely could even win this game yet alone just grab a point.

AAA Sports

We like the Sparta Prague @ Manchester City game to go OVER the total on Wednesday at 3:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Manchester City are one of the top teams in the entire world. They are known for being able to score goals, especially at home.

So far this year, City have struggled against the counter attack. They've conceded at least a goal in all four home games in the premier league (two in back to back.)

They haven't conceded yet in the UCL. But, the time is right for a team like Sparta Prague to get one on them. Iron Sparta have scored in every single one of their 19 competitive matches this season.

Erling Haaland hasn't scored in back to back games. You know he'll want to get back on to the score sheet on Wednesday.

Sparta Praha allow a lot of goals considering their a top team in the Czechia league. They average more than a goal allowed per game. We think City gets at least four on them today.

This game goes OVER even without a goal from the underdogs. But, we're expecting both teams to find the back of the net today.

AAA Sports

We like Real Madrid to defeat Celta de Vigo on Saturday at 3:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Real Madrid will be expecting to stay undefeated in domestic play this Saturday. It was a bad defeat against Lille in UCL play to begin the month. They responded with a big win two Saturday's ago though at home against Villareal.

This week, Real Madrid plays on the road vs. Celta De Vigo. The Sky Blues will be without their main attacking threat in Iago Aspas today which is a real bummer for them.

Last year's European Champions are currently trying to hunt down Barcelona. Three points are necessary this week as they play Barca next weekend it what could make things interesting again.

Madrid have won eight straight games against the Sky Blues. This one should be no different.

The line could very well be higher for this game. Real Madrid dominates possession as well as the scoreboard this weekend.

AAA Sports

We like Borussia Dortmund to defeat St. Pauli in the Bundesliga on Friday for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Dortmund currently rank 7th in the Bundesliga and need to string some wins together to get back into a Europe position.

St. Pauli are on the other end of the table on the verge of a relegation postion. They lost their last match at home. Now they are on the road.

Dortmund may have lost their most recent game as well. But, they won their most recent home game 7-1 in the Champions League vs. Celtic.

Dortmund have also scored eight more goals than St. Pauli this season in just six games a piece.

Even with a couple of injuries, Borussia Dortmund will most definitely field the stronger players today. St. Pauli are also missing a coupel of key players.

With all of that into consideration, we believe that the home team wins this game by at least two goals this Friday.

AAA Sports

We like Romania to defeat Lithuania on Tuesday for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Considering that Romania have won all of their games, and Lithuania is yet to win, we believe that Romania should be heavier favorites.

Romania won against Lithuania a little over a month ago back in Bucharest. Now, it's in Lithuania and the result shouldn't change.

The Tricolorii are in a league of their own in this Nations League C2 Group. They've won every game so far convincingly, by scoring three goals in each.

Romania have also won five straight matches between these two.

Lithuania have lost four straight matches overall themselves and could be demoted if they don't find a result sooner or later.

We expect this game to be a breeze for Romania.

AAA Sports

We like France to defeat Belgium on Monday for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

France may be without Mbappe for this fixture, and with the departure of Griezmann there's been a lot of change. But, France still provides one of the best lineups in the world here this afternoon, with a stellar back line.

Belgium struggled dearly a few days ago when they played against Italy. It was bound to get ugly when Italy picked up a red card. They managed to get a result out of it, but it wasn't a strong performance from them.

France won the reverse fixture between these teams just over a month ago now and have won four straight meetings between these teams. (Belgium haven't won since 2015.)

Kevin De Bruyne will also not be available which is a huge blow to Belgium.

We believe France is stronger and will be more motivated on Monday.

AAA Sports

We like Algeria to defeat Togo on Thursday for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones: 

At home, Algeria have not lost a single AFCON qualifying match since 2007. 

The attacking play of Algerian star Riyad Mahrez will be able to pick a part a weak Togo defense. 

Perhaps missing their best player, Togo will be without Kodjo Fo Doh Laba for this match. 

Algeria have won both of their qualifying matches so far, with Togo drawing both of theirs. 

A win here would give even more distance to Algeria's Group E lead. They will be feeling extra confident after grabbing three more points. 

Overall, Algeria is the better side. They've got great play all-around the pitch and should be able to bag a few goals in today. We do not see Togo finding the back of the net, making Algeria -1.5 a great play. 

AAA Sports

We like the Ajax Amsterdam @ SK Slavia Prague game to go UNDER on Thursday for a number of reasons. Here are some of the most important ones:

Having scored 19 goals over their last six matches (3.16 per game,) Ajax should be ready to face this Czechia side.

Slavia Praha have looked very strong themselves this season having scored 13 goals over their last five games (2.6 per game.)

In their last meeting against each other, we saw a 2-2 finish with plenty of chances at both ends. That was also in the Europa League.

18 year old sensation & Ajax captain Jorrel Hato picked up another yellow last time out in the Europa League and will be suspended for this match. That should help open this game up.

Both sides have lots of fire-power up top and we should see another game with chances left and right.

The OVER is the play in this Europa League matchup.

AAA Sports

We like Bayern Munich to defeat Aston Villa for a number of reasons. Here are some of the most important ones.

Even after winning with Aston Villa (against Young Boys) in match-day one of the UCL, we believe that Bayern Munich should pose a much stronger threat.

Bayern Munich won their opening game 9-2 in this competition and look to be playing very well under new manager Vincent Kompany.

Harry Kane, who got injured in their last match against Bayer Leverkusen, is expected to play in this match which should give the German powerhouse some more goal scoring threat ability.

Aston Villa gives up a lot of goals, considering that they have been near the top of the Premier League over the past couple of seasons now. They recently gave up two goals to Ipswich Town in a 2-2 draw.

Cash, Mings and Kamara are all still not ready to play and that leaves an Aston Villa side quite thin for the busy part of the season.

Bayern Munich will prove to be too much on Wednesday and we're rolling with them on the 3-Way Moneyline.

AAA Sports

We like Derby County vs Sunderland to stay Under the total for a number of reasons. Here are some of the most important ones:

In seven matches this season, Sunderland have only allowed six goals in the back of their net.

Derby County tend to play better against the stronger teams, as they allowed just a goal against Sheffield and two against Watford.

As the favorites, Sunderland are supposed to score and win this game. But, Sunderland have scored just four goals over their last three matches.

Three of the past four meetings between these two clubs have featured two goals or less (4-1 in 2018, 1-1 in 2017, 0-0 in 2008, 1-0 in 2007.)

Sunderland are dealing with a lot of injuries right now and won't have their best squad playing in today's game.

We're expecting a low-scoring match with one of the following final scores likely to occur: 1-0, or 2-0. The play is the under.

AAA Sports

We like Juventus to defeat Genoa for a number of resasons. Here are some of the most important ones:

As the the only team in any of Europe's top five leagues yet to concede a league goal this season, Juventus is very difficult to score against.

Back in April of 2009, Thiago Motta scored 2 goals for Genoa in a 3-2 win over Juventus. Motta is now the manager of Juventus. He will make sure his new club takes care of its business against a team he once played for.

Sitting in 17th in the Serie A standings, Genoa is not playing well right now. Last Saturday's 2-0 setback to newly promoted Venezia shows that this team is currently really struggling. That was followed by a painful Coppa Italia loss to Sampdoria on Wednesday.

The price is fair, as the line could very well be higher. Juventus will score and has a very good chance at a 6th straight clean sheet. We will back the stronger and deeper visitors.

AAA Sports

We like Bochum vs Borussia Dortmund Over for a number of reasons. Here are some of the most important ones:

We played against Borussia Dortmund in their last league match and they conceded 5 goals themselves. 

Borussia Dortmund was embarrassed by that effort and will be looking to run up the score against Bochum. 

Borussia Dortmund has won 5 straight at home and has averaged 3 goals each in those wins. They will likely get even more than that against Bochum.

Bochum should also contribute at least 1 goal. They are off a 2-2 draw in their last match. Prior to that, they'd scored against a strong Freiburg squad.

With the angry hosts running up the score, the over is the play.

AAA Sports

We like Nice to defeat Real Sociedad for a number of reasons. Here are some of the most important ones.

Nice just smashed St. Etienne by an 8-0 score. Off that shellacking, they are clicking on all cylinders.

Nice will have the advantage of playing at Allianz Riviera.

Real Sociedad is winless (3 L, 2 D) in its last 5 matches. Confidence is low.

Real Sociedad is still adjusting to life without last year's leading goalscorer Alexander Sorloth and last year's chief creator Mikel Merino. They've moved on and are now with Atletico Madrid and Arsenal.

Real Sociedad is also minus right-back Hamari Traore who is out a cruciate ligament injury.

We are backing the more confident club in better form, playing on home soil. Nice is the play.

AAA Sports.

We like Stuttgart to defeat Borussia Dortmund for a number of resasons. Here are some of the most important ones:

1. Stuttgart had a tough start to the season but has found its footing. Though they lost their Champions League match, they won their last Bundesliga match 3-1.

2. Stuttgart is unbeaten in its last 13 Bundesliga matches at the MHPArena. They have only one loss (14-1-7) in their last 22 home games.

3. Stuttgart won all three of their games against Borussia Dortmund last season.

4. With 1 draw and 2 losses, Dortmund hasnt won any of its last three Bundesliga away games. Dortmund hasn't scored a goal in its last 2 Bundesliga road games. Stuttgart has scored in each of its last 19 Bundesliga matches.

5. Stuttgart has had one extra day in between games. It lost to Real Madrid on the 17th and Dortmund defeated Brugge on the 18th.

Playing this match at MHPArena provides Stuttgart, motivated from the loss to Real Madrid, with the edge it will need.

AAA Sports

We like West Ham and Chelsea to go over the total for a number of reasons. Here are some of the most important ones:

1. Six of the last 9 h2h matches have finished with at least 3 goals.

2. Chelsea has scored 8 goals in its last 3 EPL matches.

3. West Ham has found the back of the net in all 4 league matches this season.

4. West Ham has conceded 5 goals in its 2 home matches.

5. The last meeting resulted in a 5-0 win for Chelsea.

Chelsea will score more than once. West Ham probably will do the same. At the least, the Hammers get one. The play is the over.

We like Atletico Madrid to defeat Rb Leipzig for a number of reasons. Here are some of the most important ones:

1. Playing at home gives Atletico a massive edge. Atletico has not lost at home to a German club in the 21st century. 

2. Atletico is playing great football. Undefeated and already in the top 4 to start the season, despite playing some of the best teams in La Liga. Leipzig just had a scoreless draw with a lower level Union Berlin squad. 

3. Atletico was the only team in last season's Champions League with a 100% perfect home record, five wins in five tries.

4. Atletico legend and manager Diego Simeone is in a class of his own. A master strategist and tactician, his team will be ready.

5. Both teams are dangerous offensively but in our eyes, especially with Leipzig missing a couple of key pieces in the midfield, the defensive edge goes to Atletico. 

When all is said and done, this price could easily be higher. Atletico Madrid is the play!

We like Shakhtar Donetsk vs Bologna to stay Under the total for a number of reasons. Here are some of the most important ones:

1. Bologna is not a dangerous offensive team. They scored 2 against a weak (promoted) Como team last match but only 1 in their previous 2 matches combined.

2. Bologna is in unfamiliar territory, having not played on this stage for several decades. 

3. Bologna has some injuries to key offensive players including forward Nicolo Cambiaghi and attacking midfielder Lewis Ferguson. 

4. Shakhtar is off a high-scoring match against a poor Karpaty club but their last match against a decent team resulted in a 0-0 draw.

5. Shakhtar has won just twice in its last 11 Champions League away matches. Scoring on the road is not easy for the Ukranian champions. 

We're expecting a low-scoring match with one of the following final scores likely to occur: 0-0, 1-0, 1-1, 2-0.  The play is the under.

We like Aston Villa to defeat Young Boys for a number of reasons. Here are five of the most important ones:

1. Making their Champions League debut this season, Aston Villa will be extra determined to kick off this league phase with a victory against Young Boys in Bern.

2. Villa has tougher matches (Bayern Munchen, Juventus) ahead and needs to take advantage of this very winnable match.

3. Villa plays in the much stronger league and is the more talented squad.

4. Villa has been playing very well in the Premier League. They are off wins over Everton and Leicester. They came back from down 2-1 to defeat Everton and their confidence is soaring.

5. Young Boys are struggling in the Swiss Super League. They are bottom of the table, the only club without a victory.

Aston Villa wins!

We expect Leeds to beat Burnley in this early Championship match. Neither of these clubs want to be here. Both believe that they belong back in the Premier League. Burnley was recently relegated. Leeds played here in the Championship last season and narrowly missed getting promoted back to the top flight. The Whites are absolutely on a mission to escape the Championship at the second try. They started this campaign slowly but have found their form with consecutive 2-0 victories over Hull City and Sheffield United. Already not as strong a squad as the one which previously dominated down here, Burnley have some serious injury concerns at the all-important centre-back position. Hjalmar Ekdal, Jordan Beyer and Maxime Esteve all expected to miss. That will cost them with streaking Leeds securing the maximum points. Leeds is the play!

Denmark is looking to make it two in a row here after posting a 2-0 win over Switzerland in its last UEFA Nations League contest. Patrick Dorgu came off the bench to score the first goal. Serbia is off a goalless draw vs. Spain, and they are fortunate to have come away with a single point after a disappointing home performance. They're still the favorites to get relegated from this group. Now on the road, we're expecting Serbia to struggle again on the offensive end. And if recent history is any precedence, then the home side has to be loving its chances today as it has gone 3-0-1 in the last four in this series. Additionally, note that the visitor has been held scoreless the last three in this series as well. Denmark is undefeated on home soil since 2022 and we don't see that streak ending here. In fact, Denmark has won 11 of its last 12 home matches, drawing the other against Switzerland in March. The Danes are full of confidence and will come away with another win.

The New York Red Bulls will host Sporting KC for the first time in more than 3 years this evening. In fact, Sporting will play on the east coast for the first time in a year. This will not be an easy trip. The Red Bulls have gone the playoffs 24 times, more than any club in MLS history. They are eager to bounce back from their first home loss of the year last weekend in a 2-0 defeat to Philadelphia. Prior to that defat the Red Bulls were on a nine-game unbeaten run in league play. New York will miss some players but KC's absences are arguably more significant. Leading scorer William Agada is suspended, and winger Stephen Afrifa has earned his first callup to the Canadian Men's National Team. Also, Designated Player Nemanja Radoja is injured. The Red Bulls have more home wins than any other MLS team since 2010 and they will earn another one tonight.

10* Arsenal (GOW)

Both teams come in off Week 1 victories, but in the end we expect Arsenal's depth to be the difference-maker in this one. Aston Villa got by West Ham 2-1, while Arsenal edged by Wolverhampton by a score of 2-0. We think Villa will also have difficulty finding the back of the net in this one. The Lions have only started the season by winning B2B games three times in their history in the EPL, and we don't see that happening today, despite having the home field. Dating to last year Arsenal has now won seven EPL matches. It shook the summer cobwebs off with the clean sheet last weekend and everything points to a more convincing victory on Saturday in our opinion; lay the price, the play is Arsenal!

10* Man City (ASSASSIN)

A fair price here on a team looking for an unprecedented fifth straight EPL title on Sunday afternoon. These teams met just a little over two weeks ago in the USA and Man City went on to secure the comfortable 4-2 win, and that was without several starters. Man City has to be feeling comfortable in this spot, as they've won six straight in this series. Pep Guardiola makes his official first EPL start for Chelsea, which enters the season dealing with several major defensive issues. Man City is unbeaten in its last four visits to Stamford Bridge and we're predicting an outright in regulation this time around; lay the price, the play is indeed on Man City!

AAA Sports

8* play on Arsenal -2 goals.

We're expecting Arsenal to lay the hammer down here and win by a score of 4-1 or even 5-1. If you do play a total, consider the over. Wolverhampton might not even get a goal here, and Arsenal could still push this total over the number by itself. Either way, we not only expect Arsenal to win this game, but we expect it to do so in blowout fashion. Gary O'Neil's men are looking to knock off Manchester City this season, as aspirations are tremendous for the home side. And a blowout victory at home to kick things off will go a long way in sending an early message. Arsenal has won two straight this month. The Wolves have lost their last two EPL openers, and everything points to another blowout loss here in this difficult road venue as well; the play is Arsenal!

AAA Sports

8* play on Newcastle -1.5 goals.

The Magpies have had to go through plenty of adversity over the last few months, but they had a great preseason, winning five of a possible six. Last year Newcastle found the back of the net in all 19 home games, and we're predicting that they'll do that early and often here in this favorable opening-day matchup. Southampton is back in the big time, but note that the Saints have prevailed in just two of their previous 24 gameweek one bouts in the top flight. Newcastle has to be feeling confident, as it has won five straight in this series, most recently a 3-1 setback at St. James Park in April 2023; lay the 1.5 goals and expect a blowout with Newcastle!

AAA Sports

8* play on Liverpool -1.5 goals.

The Tractor Boys are out of the exile from the to flight of English Football, but they run into a motivated Reds side that plays its first game under the guidance of Arne Slot. Liverpool stumbled in its preseason opener, but then won four straight on the spin vs. Real Beti, Arsenal, Man U and Sevilla. Ipswich Town had a strong preseason as well, going 3-1 overall. But Liverpool is on a mission to open the season and opens healthy. We expect the visitors to not only win this game, but to do so in blowout fashion; the play is Liverpool!
