UEFA Champions League

Borussia Dortmund vs. Paris Saint-Germain

• When: Wednesday, December 13th, 2023

• Soccer Odds: Borussia Dortmund +270 // Paris Saint-Germain -116

Paris is rocking while Dortmund is struggling. The home team in this shows a draw and 2 losses in their last couple of games, while PSG has won 4-of-5 with a draw.

The road squad has won 4-of-5 with a draw. Paris Saint-Germain’s excellent form is the reason they’re the -116 road chalk.

However, Dortmund’s 2 losses came against top Bundesliga squads Stuttgart on the road and by a goal against Leipzig. The odds make the home team playable.

Soccer Betting Pick: Borussia Dortmund

Newcastle United vs. AC Milan

• When: Wednesday, December 13th, 2023

• Soccer Odds: Newcastle United -115 // AC Milan +275

This is a key matchup. If Paris falls to Dortmund, the winner of Newcastle versus AC Milan will be in a position to grab the second spot in the group. Neither team is playing fantastic soccer.

Newcastle, though, heads home after a couple of embarrassing road losses to Everton and Man United. Losing to the Red Devils these days is almost more embarrassing than falling to Everton. Newcastle has won their last couple of home games. Back the -115 chalk to profit.

Soccer Betting Pick: Newcastle United

English Premier League

Liverpool vs. Manchester United

• When: Sunday, December 17th, 2023

• Soccer Odds: Liverpool -1.5 -110 // Manchester United +1.5 -127

Manchester City isn’t running away with the Premier League. The Sky Blues, most likely because of injuries to key players, has just 33 points on the EPL Standings.

City is 4 points behind league leader Liverpool. The Reds have 37 points and have rolled in their last 4, beating LASK in a Europea League match, Fulham, Sheffield, and Crystal. Pool covers.

Soccer Betting Pick: Liverpool

Bundesliga

Bayern Munich vs. VfB Stuttgart

• When: Sunday, December 17th, 2023

• Soccer Odds: Bayern Munich -1.25 -130 // VfB Stuttgart +1.25 -105

Bayern shows 3 wins, a draw, and a loss in their last 5. The -1.25 chalk isn’t dominating the way many believed they would this season. Bayern is 4 points behind Leverkusen and only a point ahead of Stuttgart on the Bundesliga Standings.

The home team in this lost 5-1 to Frankfurt in their last. For sure, Bayern can bounce back with a huge victory on Sunday, but the payout makes Stuttgart the play./p>

Soccer Betting Pick: VfB Stuttgart

La Liga

Real Madrid vs. Villarreal

• When: Sunday, December 17th, 2023

• Soccer Odds: Real Madrid -1.75 -109 // Villarreal +1.75 -127

Villarreal won the last head-to-head, but that was way back on April 8. Both teams are much different now than they were then.

Real Madrid is on fire. The home team in this has won 4-of-5 with a draw. El Blanco is 2 points behind Girona on the La Liga Standings. So Real will be fired up to make a statement.

Soccer Betting Pick: Real Madrid

Serie A

Lazio vs. Inter Milan

• When: Sunday, December 17th, 2023

• Soccer Odds: Lazio +350 // Inter Milan -1397

Lazio has won 3 with a draw in their last 4. The home team in this is playing terrific soccer. But Inter is the best team in Serie A.

Still, sometimes, we must take a shot on an underdog. In this case, Lazio gets Inter at home on their pitch in Rome. Inter might be due for a backward step. So at +350, the home dog is worth backing.

Soccer Betting Pick: Lazio
