UEFA Europa League

Atalanta vs. Marseille

• When: Thursday, May 9th, 2024. 3:00pm ET.

• Soccer Odds: Atalanta -125 // Marseille +350

Marseille is a quality club, but Atalanta is on fire. The home team in this has won 3 with a draw in their last 4. The draw came against Marseille in the first leg.

Back on their pitch, Atalanta has a big edge. Also, the odds make the home chalk more than playable. Back the Serie A squad to cash.

Soccer Betting Pick: Atalanta

Bayer Leverkusen vs. AS Roma

• When: Thursday, May 9th, 2024. 3:00pm ET.

• Soccer Odds: Bayer Leverkusen -167 // AS Roma +485

Leverkusen dominated the Bundesliga this season. The German League winner is 26-0 with 6 draws in their Bundesliga matches.

On Thursday, Leverkusen looks to end AS Roma’s Europa League dreams. It shouldn’t be an issue because the match happens on Leverkusen’s pitch where the home team is close to impossible to beat. Give the -167 squad the nod to win this by at least 2 goals.

Soccer Betting Pick: Bayer Leverkusen

English Premier League

Fulham vs. Manchester City

• When: Saturday, May 11th, 2024. 7:30am ET.

• Soccer Odds: Fulham +1.5 -103 // Manchester City -1.5 -112

The Sky Blues won’t repeat as Champions League titlists. An English Premier League title, though, is still more than possible. Heading into their match with Fulham, Man City are a point behind Arsenal for the Premier trophy.

Fulham won’t just hand a victory to the Sky Blues. City is going to have to work for it, which is why even the Citizens win this, it will be by a single goal. Take the +1.5 on the home side.

Soccer Betting Pick: Fulham

Manchester United vs. Arsenal

• When: Sunday, May 12th, 2024. 11:30am ET.

• Soccer Odds: Manchester United +1.25 -125 // Arsenal -1.25 +100

United versus Arsenal is a great rivalry. This time around, the Gunners require a victory because City should beat Fulham on Saturday.

Man U isn’t the franchise the used to be. Mediocrity is the word that comes to mind when we think of United. If this match were against a team like Burnley, the Red Devils might be the play. But the Gunners are motivated. A 2-goal, or even 3-goal victory, is a real possibility.

Soccer Betting Pick: Arsenal

La Liga

Granada vs. Real Madrid

• When: Saturday, May 11th, 2024. 12:30pm ET.

• Soccer Odds: Granada +1.5 -114 vs Real Madrid -1.5 -101

Real must battle Bayern earlier in the week. Although Real is no stranger to having to play 2 games in a single week, Madrid already scored the La Liga title with a 3-0 victory against Cadiz this past Saturday.

Granada is going to play in La Liga 2 next season because they’re at the bottom of the standings. A win over Real isn’t possible. But Granada could play well enough, and Real won’t push too hard in this, to produce a spread line victory. Grab the +1.56 on the home dog.

Soccer Betting Pick: Granada
