Nashville is 11-9-1-1, but just 4-6 on the road. It's coming off a come from behind 4-3 OT win at New Jersey just last night and I don't think we need to overthink this one here. Fatigue is a major factor here for the Predators in the second game of the back-to-back. The Isles are 15-9 and 8-3 at home. They're off a 3-1 loss at Philly two night ago (note though that NY is 6-2 in its last eight when playing with two or more days of rest.) The Isles also play with revenge here after falling 5-4 to Nashville a couple of weeks ago. All things considered, I definitely feel that the Islanders are well worth the price of admission in this spot; lay it!

Dave's Friday Free Play: 1* on Los Angeles Lakers +8.5
The Key: LeBron and Davis are back healthy for the Lakers and they are in the midst of their best stretch of the season. The Lakers have gone 6-2 SU & 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games overall with their 2 losses coming by 10 at Phoenix and at the buzzer to the Pacers by 1. Khris Middleton makes his season debut for the Bucks tonight but will be on a minutes restriction and rusty. I think his return has the Bucks getting too much respect from oddsmakers tonight. Take Los Angeles.

Toronto @ Brooklyn (7:40 PM EST) Play On: Toronto +3
The Toronto Raptors travel to Brooklyn to take on the Nets on Friday night. Toronto is 11-10 SU overall this year while Brooklyn comes in with a 12-11 SU overall record on the season. Toronto is 6-1 ATS this year when playing against a team with a winning record and 38-16 ATS last 54 games in this same situation. Toronto is 5-2 ATS last 7 games after allowing 125 points or more in their previous game. Brooklyn is 6-13-1 ATS last 20 games when playing on 1 days rest. Brooklyn is 13-37-2 ATS last 52 home games. Brooklyn is 6-19-1 ATS last 26 home games against a team with a losing road record. Brooklyn is 0-3-1 ATS last 4 games after a SU win. Toronto is 5-1 ATS last 6 meetings in Brooklyn. We'll recommend a small play on Toronto tonight! Thanks and good luck, Rocky
The Toronto Raptors will be extra motivated tonight playing with double-revenge after losing their first two meetings with the Brooklyn Nets this season. That includes a 98-112 loss on November 23rd just over a week ago. But the Raptors are as healthy as they have been in a long time right now with Siakam, VanVleet and Barnes all back and healthy. Everyone but Anunoby has missed at least three games this season for the Raptors as health has been an issue for them. The Nets are without Simmons and Watanabe right now. The Raptors are 38-16 ATS in their last 54 games against a team with a winning record. Toronto is 5-1 ATS in its last six trips to Brooklyn. The Nets are 13-37-2 ATS in their last 52 home games. Give me the Raptors.
Friday's Free NBA Pick is on the Orlando Magic as a 10.5-point road dog against the Cleveland Cavaliers. This just feels like a few too many for the Magic to be catching in this spot. The Cavs are without question the better team, but how motivated are the really going to be for this game against Orlando. Cleveland just finished up a 3-game road trip with a 113-85 blowout win over the 76ers and will be headed back out tomorrow for a game at New York against the Knicks on Sunday. Magic are 5-1 ATS last 6 when catching 7 or more points. Bet Orlando +10.5!
Play: PARLAY Switzerland Double Chance + UNDER 3.5 Goals (-110)
World Cup
(225389) Switzerland vs (225390) Serbia
Unless anyone actually expects Cameroon to beat Brazil in the other Group G match, all the Swiss need is a point from this match to qualify while of course Serbia will have to push for the win. The troubling part for Serbia is that they do not have a defense I could ever trust to protect a lead, especially considering they led 3-1 over Cameroon in their last match, only to allow two goals to the African nation and settle for a disheartening draw.
That being said, I would have to side with Switzerland in this match but considering they don’t have to push for a win, I would prefer to take them on the Double Chance (Win or Draw), however that is priced at -185 at DraftKings. To reduce the vig, I suggest pairing that with Under 3.5 goals which brings the price down to -110.
Switzerland is a strong defensive unit and gave Brazil fits before the World #1 team finally found a breakthrough goal late in the 2nd half to win 1-0. But they only allowed just nine shots to the Brazilians compared to Serbia allowing a whopping 24. I’ll always side with the better defensive team and always lean to the Under in match that same side only needs to draw.
TAKE SWITZERLAND DOUBLE CHANCE + UNDER 3.5 GOALS (-110)
Newby Notes: Double Chance is a standard Soccer bet that allows you to take a side and the draw in one bet. The only way you lose it is if the other team wins. It is actually the same as the Asian Handicap of +0.5. But you can make this Parlay yourself on FanDuel but Choosing the correct Double Chance option (there are three possibilities) and combining it with Under 3.5 Goals. On DraftKings, you have to go under the Same Game Parlay tab, but it is an option under the Double Chance/Total Goals heading.
