English FA Cup
Manchester City vs. Burnley
- When: Saturday, Mar. 18, 2023
- Soccer Odds: Manchester City -1.75 -143 // Burnley +1.75 +106
Burnley has won 4 with a draw in their last 5, but we can’t read too much into the underdog’s form. Burnley beat a couple of English League Championship rivals and Fleetwood Town in an English FA Cup match.
Man City blasted Leipzig 7-0 on March 14 in a Champions League match. Before beating Leipzig in a game where Man City striker Erling Haaland scored 5 goals, the Sky Blues beat Crystal Palace 1-0. City should win this by at least 2. A 3-goal victory is not improbable.
Soccer Betting Pick: Manchester City
English Premier League
Arsenal vs. Crystal Palace
- When: Sunday, Mar. 19, 2023
- Soccer Odds: Arsenal -1.5 -114 // Crystal Palace +1.5-102
Arsenal hosts Crystal Palace in a game the Gunners should have no trouble winning. So the best play in the matchup is on the handicap where Crystal is a +1.5 dog.
The odds suggest Palace keeps this close. No doubt, Crystal should. Although CP has lost 3 straight, not a single one of the losses happened by more than a goal. Taking the +1.5 makes sense.
Soccer Betting Pick: Crystal Palace
La Liga
Barcelona vs. Real Madrid
- When: Sunday, Mar. 19, 2023
- Soccer Odds: Barcelona +115 // Real Madrid +248
The weekend’s top soccer match is another rendition of the El Classico. This time, the match happens at Camp Nou, which is why Real is such a big time underdog.
In the last head-to-head, Barca beat El Blanco on Real’s pitch. Ah, but the match was a Copa del Rey contest.
This is a La Liga game, which mean Real manager Carlo Ancelotti will be more fired up to win this one. Expect Real to play lights out.
Soccer Betting Pick: Real Madrid
German Bundesliga
Bayer Leverkusen vs. Bayern Munich
- When: Sunday, Mar. 19, 2023
- Soccer Odds: Bayer Leverkusen +1.0 -110 // Bayern Munich -1.0 -105
Both Leverkusen and Bayern head into this playing great soccer. Leverkusen has won 3 straight and 4-of-5 with a draw. The draw came against SC Freiburg in a 1-1 match.
Bayern has also won 4 straight. If this match was in Munich, Bayern would be the play. But it’s on Leverkusen’s pitch. Taking the +1 on the home team makes sense.
Soccer Betting Pick: Bayer Leverkusen
Serie A
Lazio vs. AS Roma
- When: Sunday, Mar. 19, 2023
- Soccer Odds: Lazio +170 // AS Roma +189
Slight home chalk Lazio shows 2 wins, a loss, and 2 draws in their last 5. Lazio’s loss came in a Europa Conference League match.
Top European clubs don’t go all out in Europa Conference League games. So it makes sense that Lazio lost.
AS Roma fell in their last. Roma also lost the last head-to-head against Lazio, even though the game happened on Roma’s pitch. Lazio is the play.
Soccer Betting Pick: Lazio
Inter Milan vs. Juventus
- When: Sunday, Mar. 19, 2023
- Soccer Odds: Inter Milan -101 // Juventus +302
Inter Milan has the edge because this happens on their pitch. But Inter isn’t playing well enough to back.
Milan has lost 2-of-4 with a draw. The draw came against Portuguese Liga squad Porto in a Champions League match earlier in the week. Inter’s lone win in the last 4 came versus Lecce. Juve has won 4-of-5. The odds make the road team an overlay.
Soccer Betting Pick: Juventus
