English Premier League
Crystal Palace vs. Manchester City
- When: Saturday, April 6th, 2024. 7:30am ET.
- Soccer Odds: Crystal Palace +1.5 -110 // Manchester City -1.5 -101
On paper, the Sky Blues rock Crystal. Manchester City hasn’t dominated as thoroughly as so many expected. But the Sky Blues do show 3 wins with 2 draws in their last 5. Not only that, but the 2 draws came against City’s top rivals this season, Liverpool and Arsenal.
Crystal fell by 2 goals to Tottenham on March 2. If the Hotspurs could beat Palace by 2 goals, then City should rock CP by at least 2.
Soccer Betting Pick: Manchester City
Brighton & Hove Albion vs. Arsenal
- When: Saturday, April 6th, 2024. 12:30pm ET.p
- Soccer Odds: Brighton & Hove Albion +388 vs Arsenal -169
In their last 5, Brighton has played decent in at least 2 games. The home underdog in this beat Nottingham 1-0 on March 10. Then on March 14, Brighton dusted AS Roma 1-0 in a Europa League match.
But although Brighton is playing well, Arsenal is gunning for a Premier League title. The road chalk has won 4-of-5 with a draw versus Man City at Etihad. The Gunners prevail.
Soccer Betting Pick: Arsenal
Manchester United vs. Liverpool
- When: Sunday, April 7th, 2024. 8:30am ET.
- Soccer Odds: Manchester United +288 // Liverpool -120
Most of this weekend’s top soccer matchups happen on Saturday. On Sunday, there is a game that all soccer handicappers should check out: Liverpool at Manchester United.
Unlike in recent seasons, this year’s Premier League title is up for grabs among Pool, Man City, and Arsenal. Liverpool can’t afford to lose on Sunday, but United beat Liverpool in an FA Cup match on March 17. The Red Devils make it two straight versus the Reds.
Soccer Betting Pick: Manchester United
Spanish Copa del Rey Final
Athletic Bilbao vs. Mallorca
- When: Saturday, April 6th, 2024. 4:00pm ET.p
- Soccer Odds: Athletic Bilbao -139 // Mallorca +387
Bilbao won’t have an easy path to the Spanish Copa del Rey trophy. Mallorca is playing well. Although Mallorca lost shows a loss and a draw in their last 3, the loss came against Barcelona on the road and the draw was against Valencia on the road.
Athletic Bilbao lost their last to Real. Mallorca may not win, but this could go to extra time or even penalty kicks. The draw is the best play.
Soccer Betting Pick: Draw
Major League Soccer
FC Cincinnati vs. New York Red Bulls
- When: Saturday, April 6th, 2024. 7:30pm ET.p
- Soccer Odds: FC Cincinnati +115 // New York Red Bulls +222
Cincinnati and the New York Red Bulls are playing excellent soccer. The Red Bulls have won 3- of-6 with 2 draws and a loss to secure 11 points.
NYRB’s 11 points are 1 behind Cincinnati’s 12, which is why this game is so intriguing. Cincinnati won’t lose on their pitch. But they may not do enough to score the regulation win versus the Red Bulls. Here’s another where the draw entices.
Soccer Betting Pick: Draw
Inter Miami vs. Colorado Rapids
- When: Saturday, April 6th, 2024. 7:30pm ET.p
- Soccer Odds: Inter Miami -150 // Colorado Rapids +350
As long as Luis Suarez plays, it won’t matter if Messi steps onto the pitch. Suarez is playing great soccer. The former Uruguayan national star still has one of the most devastating striking boot in the sport.
Colorado is playing decent soccer. But they’re going to have to step it up to get by Suarez and his mates. Miami wins.
Soccer Betting Pick: Inter Miami
