English Premier League: Fulham vs Arsenal Goal Total Wager and Best EPL Prop Bet on Saturday

XFL Matchups in Week 4: FanDuel’s Point Spreads, Over/Under Trends, and D.C. Defenders Parlay Pick
The Rock’s new XFL has some surprising angles going on, one being its profound lack of parity. In 2022, WagerBop was among the first publications to notice a red flag in USFL predictions, namely that the Michigan Panthers, who had to play in Birmingham along with every other "city's" team in the USFL's clumsy debut, were hyped as a strong championship favorite. Bookmakers … [Read more...] about XFL Matchups in Week 4: FanDuel’s Point Spreads, Over/Under Trends, and D.C. Defenders Parlay Pick

The XFL in Week 3: DC Defenders vs St. Louis Battlehawks Point Total Pick, and Arlington’s Eye-Popping Odds to Win
Remember the 20th century's yarns about how American football odds were impossible to make money on? Minor league football is making bookmakers look so clumsy, they may have to start spreading their own fairy tales about how they really do put out accurate lines...sometimes. When it comes to the XFL, sportsbooks have overcorrected themselves like a bowler who throws in the … [Read more...] about The XFL in Week 3: DC Defenders vs St. Louis Battlehawks Point Total Pick, and Arlington’s Eye-Popping Odds to Win
Premier League Picks for Matchday 25: Cherries vs Sky Blues O/U Forecast, and Why Now’s the Time to Pick Liverpool
So, that whole episode didn't take long.

In the wake of Arsenal dropping 3 points to Sky Blues, Gunners did more than make a statement in the next round.

XFL Predictions: Week 2 Previews, St. Louis at Seattle O/U Point Total, and Houston vs Arlington ATS Pick
The XFL laid a smack-down on other minor leagues last weekend. XFL teams drew NFL-sized crowds to several cities, looked organized and sternly coached on the gridiron, and made so many exciting plays that Daily Fantasy sharks and optimistic point-total gamblers competed to see who could take home the bigger stakes. Previous versions of minor-league pigskin on the national stage … [Read more...] about XFL Predictions: Week 2 Previews, St. Louis at Seattle O/U Point Total, and Houston vs Arlington ATS Pick
XFL Game Odds, Previews, and Week 1 Picks: Orlando at Houston ATS and Defenders vs Sea Dragons Moneyline Pick
Better yet, fans were welcomed into lively XFL stadiums around the nation (not a single venue in a convenient town) where teams like the St. Louis Battlehawks developed intense crowd support, a far cry from the rather short-lived Alliance of American Football’s reputation of "boiled hot dog and cold bleachers". North America was then crippled by the COVID-19 pandemic, taking … [Read more...] about XFL Game Odds, Previews, and Week 1 Picks: Orlando at Houston ATS and Defenders vs Sea Dragons Moneyline Pick
