English Premier League
Wolverhampton Wanderers vs. Arsenal
- When: Saturday, April 20th, 2024. 2:30pm ET.
- Soccer Odds: Wolverhampton Wanderers +1.5 -116 // Arsenal -1.5 +105
Like all Premier teams, Wolverhampton is tough to beat at home. However, the Wanderers face an Arsenal side that’s looking to lock down the Premier title.
As of April 12, Arsenal has a 1 point lead over City and is tied with Liverpool. The Gunners, even though they must get by Dortmund on Tuesday in a Champions League match, are deadest and winning the Premier. Saka and his mates won’t let up. Back the Gunners to cover at the excellent payout odds.
Soccer Betting Pick: Arsenal
Fulham vs. Liverpool
- When: Sunday, April 21st, 2024. 11:30am ET.
- Soccer Odds: Fulham +1.25 -120 // Liverpool -1.25 +105
On April 2, Fulham lost to Nottingham in a 3-1 game. Then on April 6, Newcastle beat Fulham 1-0.
Fulham has a shot to win this on the handicap line because this match happens at Fulham’s stadium. But Pool knows the stakes. Liverpool fell 0-3 to Atalanta in a Europa League match last Thursday, which means Pool’s lone hope for a title is to win the Premier. Give Liverpool the nod to cover.
Soccer Betting Pick: Liverpool
FA Cup Semifinals
Manchester City vs. Chelsea
- When: Saturday, April 20th, 2024. 12:15pm ET.
- Soccer Odds: Manchester City -1.25 -106 // Chelsea +1.25 -114
The Sky Blues have a tough week. On Wednesday, they host Real Madrid in the second leg of a 2-leg aggregate and then on Saturday they throw down versus Premier rival Chelsea.
The Blues are in decent form. Chelsea has won 2-of-5 with a couple of draws. Their latest draw, though, should worry their fans. It came against Sheffield United, which is a -10000 choice to find themselves playing in the relegated league next season. City covers.
Soccer Betting Pick: Manchester City
Coventry City vs. Manchester United
- When: Sunday, April 21st, 2024. 10:30am ET.
- Soccer Odds: Coventry City +1.25 -110 // Manchester United -1.25 -110
The odds make a play on Coventry or Man United possible. The team with the handicap edge is Coventry City because this happens on their pitch.
But although United isn’t one of the better Premier teams, they may have turned their form around. On April 7. The Red Devils posted a draw against Liverpool. Pool, along with the Gunners and Sky Blues, is one of three teams that can win the Premier. Give United a shot to cover the spread line.
Soccer Betting Pick: Manchester United
Bundesliga
MFC Union Berlin vs. Bayern Munich
- When: Saturday, April 20th, 2024. 12:30pm ET.
- Soccer Odds: FC Union Berlin +1.25 -123 // Bayern Munich -1.25 +107
Neither squad heads into their previous weekend match playing great soccer. Not only that, but Bayern much tackle Arsenal on Tuesday this week, which means Munich could be a tired bunch by the time they travel to Berlin to face off against Union.
The home team in this has fallen by a combined 4 goals to 0in the last couple of head-to-head matches. Union Berlin will find it difficult to win straight up. But Berlin played well in a 1-0 loss to likely Bundesliga champs Bayer Leverkusen on April 6. The draw is the play.
Soccer Betting Pick: Draw
La Liga
Real Madrid vs. Barcelona
- When: Sunday, April 21st, 2024. 3:00pm ET.
- Soccer Odds: Real Madrid -139 // Barcelona +350
This version of the El Clasico pits a couple of legit Champions League squad teams. This issue with handicapping this one so far is that by the time these two kick off on Sunday, we will know if Barcelona or Real or both have stamped their tickets to the UCL Semifinals.
Then again, the El Clasico is the El Clasico, meaning whatever happened before or after the match doesn’t matter. Both will be all out to win on Sunday. Barcelona offers much higher odds than Lewandowski and his mates should because the match is in Madrid. Ah, but Barca is playing the overall better soccer. Take a swing on Barça to beat Real in this week’s best rivalry match.
Soccer Betting Pick: Barcelona
