Wednesday's Champions League betting preview

The final two matches to determine the Champions League final four take place today. Here's a look at Wednesday's quarterfinal second legs. All lines courtesy of Bet365.

Barcelona v. Paris Saint Germain -275 +450 +800

The first leg finished 2-2 in Paris. A scoreless-draw or a 1-1 draw and Barcelona will advance. A 2-2 draw after 90 minutes would send the match to extra time. An outright win by either team earns a spot in the next round.

Barcelona lead all Champions League clubs in possession with 73.4 percent and passing accuracy with 91 percent.

PSG have scored at least two goals in six of their last seven matches in the Champions League and average 2.1 goals scored per game during their CL campaign.

Juventus v. Bayern Munich +200 +240 +150

The first leg finished 2-0 in Munich. Juventus has to win by three goals or more to advance. If Juventus win 2-0 after 90 minutes, the match will go into extra time. Anything less and Bayern Munich will advance to the semifinals.

Juventus have won all five quarterfinal ties against German opposition in Champions League.

Bayern have two wins, one draw and one loss away from home during their Champions League season.

DAVE ESSLER

MLB Cliff Notes - Wednesday

Reds at Cardinals: Bailey looked great against the Nationals, and I know that because they won the game 15-0 and we had Washington. I do wonder how much of that was the situation, and now he goes against a team that fared quite well against him. Westbrook threw a ton (116 to be exact) of pitches against the Giants, and the way the Giants have been hitting that's hard to do. Having said that, and given that it's a warm day game with a potentially decent breeze helping, it's hard not to like the over here. Tuesday's game and lineup pending, of course.

Pittsburgh at Arizona: Just saw the lines and was hoping Miley would be less, but against Sanchez I suppose it's only natural to be at lest -150. Perhaps the most impressive thing about this kid is that his numbers at home have actually been better than on the road, which in Chase is just not that easy. Sanchez ONLY walked one against the Dodgers, but in doing so he had to put the ball over the plate, and of course the Dodgers hit it. Rarely would I play a RL but this may be one of those rarely times. The Pirates are hitting .083 against LHP this season.

Colorado at San Francisco: Two of the most hittable pitchers facing each other, Francis outside of Coors Field he ONLY allowed the opposition to bat .292 last year. This could be where the Giants wake up at the plate, since most of them have hit him hard. Zito was impressive against the Cardinals, but he did give up a lot of flyball outs and threw over 100 pitches. He's fared reasonably well against most of the Rockies big bats, it's the little ones that have given him trouble. With a decent helping breeze to right you almost have to think this goes over 7.5, especially in a day game. I will wait for lineups, as we always should, but more so on day-after-night games.

Mets at Phillies: Kendrick has been one of those pitchers I have been wrong on more than right. Since the Royals lit him up one would assume the Mets would, especially given that the Mets hit RHP better than LHP. But, of course it won't be that easy because only Wright has hit him at all. He's hit Kendrick well, but will need SOME help. Hugh Hefner is the only pitcher (unless Medlen does) that's given up more than three runs to Miami, so one would think the Phillies would score. BUT, that was the Mets bullpen who gave it up, not Hugh. He did fare somewhat better, at least from an ERA standpoint, on the road last season. Very warm in Philadelphia on Wednesday night with a slight helping breeze, but at 8.5 an NL total really needs to stick out for me to play it. At this point I have no strong opinion on the side, although if the Mets pen is used much on Tuesday, I'd have to think about Philadelphia.

Atlanta at Miami: Interesting that perhaps the Braves best starter is the cheapest Atlanta has been this series. Stanton does have two bombs off the kid, but Giancarlo has been a bit lost lately. It's not teams simply pitching around him, either. Sanabia didn't give up runs to the Mets, but he did give up what I'd call an inordinate number of flyball outs. The Braves haven't seen the kid, so that could be advantage Marlins and a nice first five inning bet, perhaps. Obviously we trust the Braves pen a lot more, although Kimbrel did look almost hittable on Monday. This could be one of those "sooner or later" bets on the Fish, especially with that total tomorrow a half run higher than on Tuesday with essentially better pitchers.

Milwaukee at Chicago: Feldman is just the type of junk right handed pitcher that could give the Brewers issues, I would think. Certainly after the shelling and the number of pitches he threw in Atlanta, that'd be hard bet to make, though. But, given the lack of familiarity it's not out of the question. Lohse looked pretty good against the hot hitting D-backs, but the Cubs have had their way with him, and refer to earlier post where it's simply not possibly to take the Brewers and their bullpen on the road. Cubs and/or over.

Dodgers at Padres: Gave out the Padres on Tuesday as a twitter play, and see that they have the early lead. Billingsley is sneaky good, but he is coming of the DL to make his first start, which is typically an auto fade. However, he has owned San Diego and has been much better on the road over the years. Since Stults isn't going to over power people he's going to need to keep his 88 MPH fastball down. He's going to be a feast or famine pitcher, IMO. His outing against the Mets was exactly the type of game he needs to pitch, and that's getting ground ball outs, hence he'll need good defense behind him as well. He did beat the Dodgers in LA last season, but he's going to give up hits, that's just a given. As a home dog, essentially, with Chad coming off the DL, you have to at least give San Diego a look, and I do lean to the under here, especially if it goes to 7, which I think it might.

Toronto at Detroit: I did have an immediate lean to this over (again) but it is looking like cold and shitty weather in Detroit tomorrow. Today's game could have had even more runs, were it not for some ropes right at people and a great catch by Don Kelly (which was when I knew we were screwed). I have never been a big Porcello fan, and the Jays have torn him a new one, so given that Detroit had to use more relief pitchers than they wanted to, I lean Jays. Once bitten, twice shy. Buerhle was hit pretty hard by the Indians last week, and the Tigers have certainly seen plenty of him from his days with the White Sox. He's fared well against both Fielder and Miguel, but the rest of the Tigers, not so much. If this were at all a nice day, it looks like they'd score 15. The only thing keeping this at 8.5 is the weather, and part of me wonders if that's enough to keep the ball in the park tomorrow. But, as I type it's gone to 9 most places. At 9 O (+100) it's probably worth a look.

Spurs at Nuggets: What Bettors Need to Know

San Antonio Spurs at Denver Nuggets (-3, 204.5)

The Denver Nuggets attempt to set a franchise record for consecutive home victories when they have a showdown with the Western Conference-leading San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday. The Nuggets previously won 20 straight home games during the 1984-85 campaign and are a league-best 35-3 at home this season. San Antonio is 23-15 on the road and waged in a battle with the Oklahoma City Thunder for the top spot in the West. The Spurs have a half-game lead.

Denver has won four consecutive games and 19 of its last 21 and has a half-game lead over the Memphis Grizzlies for the No. 3 seed in the West. The Nuggets have continued to win despite recent injuries to starts Danilo Gallinari (knee) and Ty Lawson (foot). Gallinari is out for the season and Lawson hopes to be back before the playoffs start. The Spurs will likely be without point guard Tony Parker (neck) and backup forward Boris Diaw (back) and continue to play without veteran guard Manu Ginobili (hamstring). San Antonio is 2-1 against the Nuggets this season.

TV: 10:30 p.m. ET, ESPN, KENS (San Antonio), Altitude (Denver)

ABOUT THE SPURS (57-20, 39-36-2 ATS): Veteran power forward Tim Duncan has put together solid back-to-back outings. Duncan recorded double-doubles in both games while averaging 27.5 points and 12.5 rebounds as he moves forward from recent knee soreness. The 31-point performance in Saturday’s victory over the Atlanta Hawks was Duncan’s third 30-point contest since March 16. He has nine double-doubles over his last 11 outings. Duncan has put together three strong outings against the Nuggets this season, averaging 22.7 points, 12.3 rebounds and 4.3 blocks.

ABOUT THE NUGGETS (53-24, 47-29-1 ATS): Forward Wilson Chandler stepped into the starting lineup for the injured Gallinari and scored 21 points in Saturday’s 132-114 rout of the Houston Rockets. Chandler was deeply affected by Gallinari’s loss as the two have been close friends dating back to their time as teammates with the New York Knicks. They both arrived in Denver as part of the Carmelo Anthony deal and Chandler has been a valuable reserve while averaging 12.1 points this season. “Wilson gives us some very good talent and very good intangibles,” Nuggets coach George Karl said. “So does Gallo. But to be honest with you, they’re quite different. Gallo’s more of a shooter and playmaker. Wilson’s a dynamic runner and athlete.”

TRENDS:

* Over is 4-0 in the last four meetings in Denver.
* Spurs are 19-7 ATS in the last 26 meetings in Denver.
* Over is 5-2 in the last seven meetings.
* Underdog is 14-4 ATS in the last 18 meetings.
* Road team is 15-3 ATS in the last 18 meetings.

Phoenix Suns vs. Dallas Mavericks (NBA) - 8:30 PM EDT

Premium Pick

3* Pick: Total: Over 202

*3 Star NBA Play of Day* The Phoenix Suns have been pushing the tempo more than any other team in the NBA over the past few weeks. Lindsay Hunter has gotten this team to run and gun, but he hasn't gotten them to play any defense just yet. Dallas' offense is great this year with Mayo, Nowitzki, Carter, etc. The Mavericks are absolutely capable of putting up 120 points on a team like the Suns. Phoenix has been absolutely horrendous on the road of late. The over is a perfect 5-0 in the Suns last 5 games playing on zero days of rest. They were beaten last night in Houston. The over is 5-1-1 in the Mavericks last 7 home games. Take the over.

Handicapper: Kyle Hunter

Minnesota Twins vs. Kansas City Royals (MLB) - 8:10 PM EDT

Premium Pick

3* Pick: Total: Over 8.5

*3 Star MLB Totals TKO* Here we have a combination of two things working in our favor. The Twins and Royals both have a much better offense than pitching staff and both of these teams are starting guys near the bottom of their rotation in this one. Liam Hendriks was beat around all season last year, and the Royals have several guys who have had lots of success against him. Wade Davis has never been very successful in his attempts to be a starting pitcher in the majors. I think both offenses should be able to quite a bit of damage in this one. Take the over.

Handicapper: Kyle Hunter

Oakland Athletics vs. Los Angeles Angels (MLB) - 10:05 PM EDT

Premium Pick

4* Pick: Total: Over 8.5

*4 Star MLB Total Domination* The Oakland Athletics and Los Angeles Angels put a lot of runners on the bases last night, and I think they will again in this one. Tom Milone has been lights out at home in his young career, but he hasn't been very good at all on the road. The Angels offense hasn't clicked perfectly just yet, but they are mighty dangerous. Joe Blanton is absolutely capable of getting lit up by anyone at this point in his career, and the A's bats are looking better this year than they did last season. The over is 7-0 in Oakland's last 7 games. The over is 7-0 in their last 7 against the AL West. The over is 3-0-2 in the Angels last 5 home games. Take the over.


Handicapper: Kyle Hunter

Colorado Rockies vs. San Francisco Giants (MLB) - 3:45 PM EDT

Premium Pick

3* Pick: San Francisco Giants -134

*3 Star MLB Early Bird Special* The San Francisco Giants made a massive comeback yesterday after Tim Lincecum's poor outing against the Rockies. Colorado led 5-1 early, but the Giants rallied to win 9-6. Barry Zito takes the hill for the Giants in the finale of this series. Zito has been a big moneymaker of late. He has gotten his control back lately and it has made a world of difference. The oddmakers still aren't giving him much credit. The Giants are 8-0 in Zito's last 8 home starts. They are 6-0 in his last 6 as a favorite. San Francisco is 7-0 in Zito's last 7 following a quality start in the previous appearance. The Rockies are 0-4 in Jeff Francis' last 4 against the Giants. Take San Francisco.

Toronto vs. NY Rangers - April 10, 2013 - 7:00 PM

Pick: -153 NY Rangers
Expert: Ben Burns
Evaluation: April 10, 2013 - 7:00 PM

Reason For Pick: I'm playing on the NEW YORK RANGERS. These teams just met at Toronto a couple of nights ago. The Leafs won that one by a score of 4-3. Tonight's rematch is at MSG though and I expect the Rangers to exact some revenge.

The Rangers are 60-46 (+8.4) in the "revenge" role the past few seasons. During that stretch, they're also 27-16 (+8) after allowing four or more goals in their previous game. That includes a perfect 3-0 mark in that situation this season. They won those games by scores of 4-3, 2-1 and 4-1.

On the other hand, the Leafs are only 30-40 (-9.5) the past few seasons, after scoring four or more goals in their previous game.

New York's Rick Nash said this of his team: "At this point of the season we have to be a lot more desperate and can't be having those defensive zone breakdowns."

After having played three straight on the road, the Rangers should be thrilled to return home. Note that they're 13-4 (+8.4) their last 17, after playing their previous three away from home.

The Rangers won this season's lone meeting vs the Leafs here by a score of 5-2 outshooting them by a 42-17 margin. I successfully backed them in that game and I'm expecting them to earn another important two points tonight. 9*

15* AL Wednesday Afternoon ANNIHILATOR on Tampa Bay Rays +115

The Tampa Bay Rays will be highly motivated for a victory tonight after losing the first two games of this series to Texas. I like them to take Game 3 and salvage this series will avoiding the sweep.

I especially like the Rays' chances with young phenom Matt Moore on the mound. The left-hander was brilliant in his first start, pitching 6 shutout innings while striking out eight in a 4-0 victory over Cleveland on April 5th.

Moore shut down the Rangers in his lone career start against them, pitching seven shutout innings of a 9-0 victory at Texas on 9/30/2011. Rangers starter Derek Holland sports a 5.03 ERA in nine career starts against Tampa Bay.

Tampa is a very profitable 25-20 (+11.9 Units) against the money line as a road underdog of +100 or higher over the last 2 seasons. The Rays are 17-4 in their last 21 games vs. a left-handed starter. Roll with the Rays Wednesday.

Chicago White Sox vs Washington Nationals
Chicago White Sox
+153 (http://partners.commission.bz/processing/clickthrgh.asp?btag=a_420b_652) at BetOnline (http://www.betonline.ag/)


15* Interleague PLAY OF THE DAY on Chicago White Sox +153

Off a 1-run loss to the Washington Nationals in Game 1 of this series, I look for the Chicago White Sox to bounce back with a Game 2 victory tonight. You can't beat this price on the Sox, either.

Gavin Floyd pitched very well in his opening start against Kansas City on April 4th, allowing just two earned runs and five base runners over 6 innings. Floyd's last start at Washington was a gem in 2010 as he allowed just one earned run over 8 innings of a 2-1 Chicago victory.

This play falls into a system that is 34-13 (72.3%) over the last 5 seasons. It tells us to bet on any team (CHI WHITE SOX) - terrible offensive team - scoring <=4.2 runs/game on the season (AL) against opponent allowing 4.8 or more runs/game on the season (NL).

This play falls into another system that is 69-67 (50.7%) over the last 5 seasons while profiting $1,000/game bettors a whopping $59,900. It tells us to bet against home favorites with a money line of -150 or more (WASHINGTON) - after having won 5 or 6 of their last 7 games, top level team, winning 62% or more of their games on the season. Roll with the White Sox Wednesday.

15* NL Wednesday No-Doubt Rout on Philadelphia Phillies -125

The Philadelphia Phillies have lost their first two series of the season to the Braves and Royals 1-2 each. They have a chance to win their first series of the season against the New York Mets tonight, and I fully expect them to take advantage.

I especially like the Phillies' chances of winning Game 3 tonight considering the edge they have on the mound. Kyle Kendrick is 5-5 with a 3.00 ERA in 12 career starts against New York, while Jeremy Hefner is 1-1 with a 15.00 ERA in two career starts against Philadelphia, both of which came last year.

The Mets are 0-4 in their last 4 games as an underdog of +110 to +150. The Phillies are 44-21 in their last 65 Wednesday games. Philadelphia is 6-1 in Kendrick's last 7 starts vs. NL East opponents. Bet the Phillies Wednesday.

Atlanta Braves vs Miami Marlins

15* NL East PLAY OF THE DAY on Miami Marlins +146

The Miami Marlins will be hungry for a win tonight as they look to avoid getting swept by the Atlanta Braves. They lost the first two games of this series by a combined three runs, and I look for them to bounce back with a victory in Game 3.

Alex Sanabia is the reason for Miami's lone victory this season. He went 6 shutout innings in a 7-5 victory at New York on April 5th in his lone start this season. Sanabia sports a 3.86 ERA in three career starts against Atlanta. Mike Minor is 1-2 with a 5.04 ERA in seven career starts against Miami.

This play falls into a system that is 63-34 (64.9%) since 1997 with $1,000/game bettors winning $31,400. It tells us to bet on home teams (MIAMI) - off 4 straight losses vs. division rivals against opponent off a one run win over a division rival. Take the Marlins Wednesday.

15* AL Central PLAY OF THE DAY on Minnesota Twins +136

The Minnesota Twins come into this game with the Kansas City Royals highly motivated for a victory. That's because they have dropped the first two games of this series, and they are looking to salvage it and avoid the sweep with a Game 3 victory.

I like their chances of getting Game 3 tonight considering that Kansas City starter Wade Davis has never proven that he can handle starting in this league. He struggled Friday at Philadelphia in his first start since 2011, giving up four runs on nine hits and exiting down 4-0 after four innings.

Minnesota is a very profitable 24-22 (+13.3 Units) against the money line as a road underdog of +125 to +175 over the last 2 seasons. Kansas City is 2-10 (-8.7 Units) against the money line in home games in April games over the last 2 seasons. Bet the Twins Wednesday.

Houston Astros vs Seattle Mariners
Houston Astros

15* AL West PLAY OF THE DAY on Houston Astros +153

The Seattle Mariners should not be this heavily favored against any team in the league unless Felix Hernandez is on the mound. That's especially the case with Blake Beavan on the mound for them tonight.

Beavan is 16-17 with a 4.46 ERA over his three-year career with Seattle. He has opened the 2013 campaign poorly, allowing five earned runs over 5 innings in an 8-7 victory at Chicago.

While Brad Peacock has only made three career starts before, he has made the most of them. He is 2-1 with a 1.65 ERA and 1.163 WHIP in those three outings. The Astros come in with a ton of confidence after their massive 16-9 victory over the Mariners last night.

This play falls into a system that is 33-12 (73.3%) over the last 5 seasons. It tells us to bet against any team (SEATTLE) - poor AL offensive team (<=4.5 runs/game) against a team with a bad bullpen (ERA>=5.00), after a loss by 6 runs or more. Take the Astros Wednesday.

20* NBA Wednesday Undervalued Underdog on Orlando Magic +5

The Orlando Magic should not be an underdog to the Milwaukee Bucks tonight. Milwaukee is all but locked into the No. 8 seed, which means it will be facing Miami in the first round of the playoffs.

Knowing that their fate is already sealed, the Bucks won't show up for this game tonight. They'll be more interested in resting their players in these final few games than winning them.

Orlando continues to battle down the stretch as it tries to avoid finishing with the league's worst record. While it has lost five straight coming in, all five losses came on the road with four of them to playoff contenders in Atlanta, Houston, San Antonio and Chicago. Plus, four of those five losses came by 9 points or less, so they were right there with a chance to win.

Milwaukee is 1-10 ATS versus horrible foul drawing teams - attempting <=21 free throws/game - 2nd half of the season this season. The Bucks are 1-11 ATS after 3 or more consecutive unders over the last 2 seasons. The Bucks are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 road games. The Magic are 3-0-1 ATS in their last 4 vs. Eastern Conference. Milwaukee is 0-6 ATS in the last 6 meetings in this series. These five trends combine for a 36-2 system backing Orlando. Bet the Magic Wednesday.

20* Nets/Celtics ESPN Wednesday No-Brainer on UNDER 193

The books have set the bar too high in this contest between the Boston Celtics and Brooklyn Nets. I look for a low-scoring, defensive battle on National TV tonight when these two get together on ESPN.

Both teams have a lot to play for as each is trying to improve its seeding. Brooklyn is coming close to clinching the No. 4 spot and home-court advantage in the first round. Boston is trying to avoid dropping to the No. 8 spot, which would mean it would have to face Miami in the first round.

One look at the recent meetings between these teams and it's easy to see that this number has been inflated. In their two most recent meetings, the Nets and Celtics combined for 169 points on December 25th, and 178 points on November 28th. In fact, the UNDER is 8-2 in the last 10 meetings with combined scores of 178 or less points eight times.

The UNDER is 6-1 in Nets last 7 vs. a team with a winning S.U. record. The UNDER is 4-0 in Celtics last 4 after scoring 100 points or more in their previous game. Take the UNDER in this game Wednesday.

15* NBA Wednesday Late-Night BAILOUT on Hornets/Kings OVER 201.5

This is a meaningless game for both the New Orleans Hornets and Sacramento Kings. That's why I believe neither team will be getting after it defensively, which will allow for a high-scoring battle.

I fully expect both teams to eclipse the 100-point mark in this one. One look at the recent history between these teams and it's easy to see that there is some value with the OVER tonight folks.

Both meetings this season have seen 205 or more combined points. New Orleans beat Sacramento 110-95 at home on February 24th in their most recent meeting. The Hornets also beat the Kings 114-105 on January 21st for 219 combined points.

Sacramento is 11-1 to the OVER in a home game where where the total is between 200 and 204.5 points over the last 3 seasons. It is seeing an average of 214.4 points/game in this spot. Roll with the OVER in this game Wednesday.

Indian Cowboy's Picks For NBA Basketball


4-Unit Play. #716. Take Sacramento -6 over New Orleans (Wednesday @ 10pm est).


The season for the Kings have been marred by the uncertainty surrounding the future of the franchise and while it will be another losing year for the Kings, there have been some signs of promise in the first season under Keith Smart. The Kings have been erratic with the ability to beat good teams convincingly on occasion. Sacramento is a respectable (8-9) in the last (17) games and this squad does own a winning record at home on the season. In the last month, the Kings have wins over the Bulls, Clippers, and Warriors. Sacramento can do two things really well: It runs a fast-paced offense and when the shots are falling, it is incredibly difficult to beat. The Kings also have one of the best rebounding teams in the league and that prowess allows them to hang around in games against superior teams. When both of those areas are on, the Kings are a tough out. The Hornets will likely end up with one of the worst records in the league and New Orleans will play five of its final seven games of the season on the road. The Hornets are (2-14-1) ATS in the last (17) meetings in Sacramento with the Home team (22-8) ATS in the last (30) meetings and the Hornets are (1-8) ATS in their last (9) road games. Sacramento is ?King for a Day?.

3-Unit Play. #961. Take Milwaukee -115 over Chicago Cubs (Tuesday @ 8:05pm est).


The Milwaukee Brewers hookup with Chicago coming off a 3-6 loss yesterday. Its a good opportunity for them to bounce-back as they actually had 9 hits similar to the Cubs but came up with half the runs. The Brewers send Lohse to the mound and he is traditionally strong when his team comes off a team loss, and gave up 1 run in 6 innings to Arizona as his team came up short. I suspect he will have a quality bounce-back here along with himself as he did pitch well and he's getting back into his groove as he did not have much of a spring training which has been well documented. The Brewers do have experience against Feldman and given his lack of experience at Wrigley as he pitches there for the first time, I suspect he will continue to struggle for his new team and he will get his bearings on later in the season. He probably will do too much as he did against the Braves when he yielded 4 runs in less than 5 inning and the Brewers are one of the best fast ball hitting teams in the league with a potent lineup from top down. I like Milwaukee to bounce-back here today.

Wunderdog Sports Free Pick

Game: San Antonio at Denver (10:30 PM Eastern)
Pick: Denver -3 (-110)

A heavyweight battle tonight in the Rockies, as the Nuggets host the San Antonio Spurs. Denver has surely been unbeatable on home hardwood where they have run off 20-straight wins. What is even more impressive than that is the fact that during this stretch they are 11-0 vs. teams that would be in the playoffs if the sesson ended today, with a winning margin of 14.8 points per game. San Antonio is certainly capable of playing with Denver, but not the way they are playing right now. The Spurs jare ust 4-4 over their last eight, and have not beaten a playoffs team on the road since the end of February. Lay the points on Denver in this one.

Milwaukee vs. Orlando - April 10, 2013 - 7:00 PM

Pick: Your pick Over 200 -105
Expert: Ben Burns
Evaluation: April 10, 2013 - 7:00 PM

Reason For Pick: I'm playing on Milwaukee and Orlando to finish OVER the total. These teams have met twice this season. Both games were high-scoring. the first finished with 205 points. The second finished with 224. (Neither game went to OT, either.) I'm expecting another relatively high-scoring affair this evening.

After managing only 83 points at Miami last night, the Bucks should be looking for a much better offensive performance here. Facing an Orlando team which allows 101.6 ppg at home should help. Note that the OVER is 6-2 after they scored 85 or fewer points in their previous game. Also, note that the OVER is 9-5 the last 14 times that the Bucks faced a team which allows 99 or more points per game.

Likewise, the OVER is 9-4 the last 13 times that the Magic faced a team which allows 99 or more points per game. (The Bucks allow 100.2 ppg.)

The OVER is 8-3 when the Magic have played with two or fewer day's rest in between games.

With the OVER also at 27-17-1 the last 45 times that the Magic were off three or more consecutive losses, I don't expect to see much defense this evening. 10* blue chip

Wednesday's Selection ...

For Wednesday, Raise the Bar 1500♦ Winner #10 of 13 is the visitcng New York Yankees as the favrorite against the Cleveland Indians. Nova and Myers are your listed starters, but as I type this at 7:20 am eastern time, it appears the Indians are making a pitching change. Regardless of who starts for Cleveland, this play is on the Yankees with Nova.
