— UEFA Champions League (@ChampionsLeague) October 2, 2023

UEFA Champions League

Borussia Dortmund vs. AC Milan

• When: Wednesday, October 4th, 2023

• Soccer Odds: Borussia Dortmund +135 // AC Milan +170

Slight underdog AC Milan has won 3 straight. Milan, which made it to the UEFA Champions League Semifinals last season, beat Lazio 2-0 in their last on Sep 30.

In their last 4, AC has won 3 straight, with a 0-0 draw versus Newcastle in their first Champions League match. For sure, AC can take it to Dortmund.

Although winners of 3-of-4, Dortmund lost their first Champions League match via a 2-0 score in a game versus PSG. AC Milan makes it even more difficult for Dortmund to move to the Round of 16 by handing Dortmund a second straight CL loss.

Soccer Betting Pick: AC Milan

Newcastle United vs. Paris Saint-Germain

• When: Wednesday, October 4th, 2023

• Soccer Odds: Newcastle United +148 // Paris Saint-Germain +150

Newcastle ranks in the top ten when it comes to valuable soccer franchises. Last season, Newcastle proved they could hang with Man City, Arsenal, and Liverpool in the Premier. This season, Newcastle are proving they’re a decent Champions League squad.

The home team is the very slight chalk because Paris remains an excellent soccer club. But Newcastle, which has won 3 straight and 4-of-5, including beating Man City on Sep. 27, has home pitch advantage. Newcastle gets the nod.

Soccer Betting Pick: Newcastle United

Serie A

Juventus vs. Torino

• When: Saturday, October 7th, 2023

• Soccer Odds: Juventus -132 // Torino +340

Juventus hosts Torino in one of the more unheralded but intense Serie A rivalries. Juve plays in Turin. Torino is Turin’s squad. So fans will line up on both sides for this one.

Juve is the chalk and for good reason. Maximilliano Allegri’s squad shows the inexplicable loss to Sassuolo in their current form cycle. But Juventus bounced out of the loss with a win versus Lecce and a draw versus scorching Atalanta.

Torino fell to Lazio by 2 goals in their last. The favorite gets it done.

Soccer Betting Pick: Juventus

Lazio vs. Atalanta

• When: Sunday, October 8th, 2023

• Soccer Odds: Lazio +150 // Atalanta +155

Before the draw versus Juventus, Atalanta had been on a 3-match winning streak. The road team in this won the last head-to-head, which happened in February this year, 2-0.

Lazio fell to AC Milan in their last. Before losing to AC, Lazio had beaten Torino. This can go either way. Atalanta shows the overall better form. Siding with the road squad makes sense.

Soccer Betting Pick: Atalanta

English Premier League

Brighton & Hove Albion vs. Liverpool

• When: Sunday, October 8th, 2023

• Soccer Odds: Brighton & Hove Albion +160 // Liverpool +126

It would be great if we could back Brighton in this. However, the home underdog has fallen on hard times.

Brighton shows a single victory in their last 5. Chelsea beat Brighton on Sep. 27. Then on Sep. 30, Aston Villa blasted the home squad in this 6-1.

Liverpool lost their last, but it was against Tottenham, it was by a single goal, and it was on the road. Before the loss, Pool had won 7 straight.

Soccer Betting Pick: Liverpool

Arsenal vs. Manchester City

• When: Sunday, October 8th, 2023

• Soccer Odds: Arsenal +155 // Manchester City +147

The Sky Blues are only a slight chalk because on Sunday, City faces one of the best teams on the planet. Arsenal has won 4-of-5 with a draw versus Tottenham.

The Gunners haven’t just won matches. They’ve played lights out, dominating PSV Eindhoven 4- 0 in a Champions League match and dusting Bournemouth 4-0 in their last.

Man City heads into this off a couple of losses, 1-0 versus Newcastle, and 2-1 versus Wolverhampton. Beating Arsenal on the road to end the streak won’t happen.

Soccer Betting Pick: Arsenal
