La Liga

Girona vs. Atletico Madrid

• When: Wednesday, January 3rd, 2024. 3:30pm.

• Soccer Odds: Girona +148 // Atletico Madrid +160

At first glance, the +160 on Atletico looks like overlay odds, but AM could find things difficult on Wednesday. Girona shows 4 wins and a draw in their last 5.

Although Girona’s draw happened in their last, the home team faced Betis on the road. At home, Girona should be incredibly difficult to beat. Give the +148 team the nod.

Soccer Betting Pick: Girona

Las Palmas vs. Barcelona

• When: Thursday, January 4th, 2024. 3:30pm.

• Soccer Odds: Las Palmas +1 -120 // Barcelona -1 -114

The odds imply Barcelona has a real shot of beating Las Palmas by more than a goal. That’s not case.

Not only does this happen on Las Palmas’ pitch, but Barcelona shows a single victory, 3 losses, and a draw in their last 5. The home team has 3 wins, a draw, and a loss. Las Palmas’ loss came in their last, a 1-0 match at Athletic Bilbao. Las Palmas could win this straight up. The safer play is to take the +1.

Soccer Betting Pick: Las Palmas

English FA Cup

Brentford vs. Wolverhampton Wanderers

• When: Friday, January 5th, 2024. 2:15pm.

• Soccer Odds: Brentford +129 // Wolverhampton Wanderers +199

Wolverhampton offers overlay odds to take down Brentford. The home side in this is on a 5- match losing streak while Wolverhampton has won 3 straight.

Not only that, but on December 27, the Wanderers beat Brentford 3-1 in Brentford. For sure, some teams, Man City and Arsenal come to mind, don’t pay attention to FA Cup matches. Wolverhampton isn’t one of those Premier squads.

Soccer Betting Pick: Wolverhampton Wanderers

Norwich City vs. Bristol Rovers

• When: Saturday, January 6th, 2024. 10:00am.

• Soccer Odds: Norwich City -1 -119 // Bristol Rovers +1 -119

Last season, Norwich played in the Premier League. This season, Norwich is in the English League Championship. Think of the ELC as the Premier League 2. But although they’ve been relegated, Norwich still hasn’t found success, falling 30 points behind ELC leader Leicester City.

Bristol Rovers, though, is tenth in the English League 1, which means they’re a league below where Norwich City plays. The Rovers will give it their all, but Norwich should win by 2 or 3 goals.

Soccer Betting Pick: Norwich City

Arsenal vs. Liverpool

• When: Sunday, January 7th, 2024. 10:00am.

• Soccer Odds: Arsenal -103 // Liverpool +236

At +236, Liverpool is one of the best plays of the week. Pool must travel to Emirates Stadium to take on Arsenal, but the Reds have won 2-of-4 with a couple of draws.

Also, Arsenal heads into this off a couple of losses. In addition, the Gunners are paying attention to the Premier and Champions leagues. Arsenal won’t pay as much attention to FA Cup matches. Go for the money by backing Liverpool.

Soccer Betting Pick: Liverpool

Serie A

Inter Milan vs. Hellas Verona

• When: Saturday, January 6th, 2024. 5:30am.

• Soccer Odds: Inter Milan -2 -110 // Hellas Verona +2 -125

The last head-to-head happened on May 3. Inter Milan faced Hellas on Verona’s pitch. The massive dog in this did nothing in a 6-0 Inter victory.

Because this happens at Giusseppe Meaza, Inter could pull off a similar victory. Expect at least 3 goal victory. An up to 6 goal Internazionale win is possible.

Soccer Betting Pick: Inter Milan
