Manchester United plays well, and it is no wonder why the Red Devils recently took over the top spot of the English Premier League. However, following Leicester's win over Chelsea last night, Solskjaer's boys have to defeat Fulham at Craven Cottage in order to regain the top spot of the table. The hosts are a … Read More... about Fulham vs. Manchester United Betting Preview, News, Odds, Prediction

NFC and AFC Divisional Round Prop Bets and Predictions ATS: 4 Picks for Saturday-Sunday
WagerBop predicted less blow-outs in the Wild Card Round than handicappers expected, and it looks like a prediction "win" that the biggest margin-of-victory in any of Wild Card Weekend's 6 NFL playoff games was 12 points, courtesy of New Orleans vs visiting Chicago. But in truth, many Week 18 battles felt like blow-outs waiting to get out. There was even a potential … [Read more...] about NFC and AFC Divisional Round Prop Bets and Predictions ATS: 4 Picks for Saturday-Sunday
2021 March Madness Futures Odds: Popular Picks and NCAAM Sleeper Bet
Part of the "madness" of March is that an awful lot of gamblers (and sports fans) don't start looking closely at college basketball teams prior to March. That's madness. We routinely give ourselves months ahead of time to analyze NFL and FBS teams, always look hard at the NBA and the NHL in the offseason, and handicap the UEFA Champions League before the Group Stage begins. … [Read more...] about 2021 March Madness Futures Odds: Popular Picks and NCAAM Sleeper Bet
CFP Final: Alabama vs OSU Odds, Predictions, and Best of FanDuel’s Prop Bets
For having a reputation as a contrarian pigskin handicapper, I suspect I've been stunned, shocked, and baffled about the same 2 times as the rest of the FBS pundit community over the course of the 2020-21 College Football Playoff. Or more precisely, once before and once during the Semifinal round. I agree with the consensus that Notre Dame has gotten 1 too many turns at a … [Read more...] about CFP Final: Alabama vs OSU Odds, Predictions, and Best of FanDuel’s Prop Bets
NFL Wild Card Weekend: Odds, Lines, and Predictions on 6 Playoff Games
2020 was a new kind of experience for everybody in sports, and Las Vegas is acting as though things have changed forever. The city of bookmakers tied unendingly to tight, conservative NFL point spreads is now making bold predictions about blow-out playoff games and fantastic shoot-outs in the offing. Oh, and don't forget a brand-new NFL playoff bracket of 14 total teams. … [Read more...] about NFL Wild Card Weekend: Odds, Lines, and Predictions on 6 Playoff Games
IIHF World Juniors: 2021 Semifinal Odds, Canada vs Russia Prediction, and USA-Finland O/U Pick
I try not to publish WagerBop predictions less than 24 hours from kickoff (or puck-drop) due to the blog-traffic factor. Even the site's most-popular pages aren't clicked-on by a million people at once. (There aren't that many sports-gambling aficionados in the world, but at least they hail from all over.) That's why we make a big deal out of weekly league schedules and events … [Read more...] about IIHF World Juniors: 2021 Semifinal Odds, Canada vs Russia Prediction, and USA-Finland O/U Pick
2020-21 College Football Playoff: Semifinal Prop Odds, Over/Under Lines, and Best Bets
College football's 2020-21 postseason is a breaking point for handicappers who spend more time ranking FBS conferences than rating individual teams. Due to the worsening rash of opt-outs in minor and mid-tier bowl contests, many "championship" games are practically decided in-advance by which team chooses to stick together in December-January and which depth chart of divas … [Read more...] about 2020-21 College Football Playoff: Semifinal Prop Odds, Over/Under Lines, and Best Bets
FBS Bowl Previews: Cotton Bowl Prediction, Arkansas-TCU Odds, and 4 Holiday Week Picks
Among the silver linings of 2020's delayed start is that the bowl season - especially the "minor" bowl season - feels less like a seasonal exhibition slate and more like a continuation of each team's schedule, however long or short it happens to have been. That should make FBS bowls easier to handicap - in theory. We've still gotten the typical smattering of surprises as … [Read more...] about FBS Bowl Previews: Cotton Bowl Prediction, Arkansas-TCU Odds, and 4 Holiday Week Picks
2021 World Junior Championship: Odds, Predictions, Prop Bets, and Gold Medal Pick
I've avoided making sports-predictions in public over the past few months, for reasons that will be spelled out in an upcoming NCAA football preview. For now, suffice to say that WagerBop is not a "square-gambling" publication, and has no plans to become one. 2020 has changed just about everything when it comes to 'capping teams and championships, and I had to test-out a few … [Read more...] about 2021 World Junior Championship: Odds, Predictions, Prop Bets, and Gold Medal Pick
