05-15-16	Heat v. Raptors UNDER 189.5	Top	89-116	Loss	-110	14 h 41 m	Show
Top Rated NBA BASKET BRAWLER Play: Under Rating: 10* Under is 8-3 in Heat last 11 overall and 10-4 in Raptors last 14 overall. This is of course the deciding Game 7 of this Conference Semifinals series and both teams will make sure to make the most of every possession. That should lead to a low-tempo low-scoring game.
05-14-16	HAMMARBY IF v. KALMAR FF OVER 2.5		1-1	Loss	-143	9 h 4 m	Show
Allsvenskan GOALS GALORE Play: Over Rating: 8* Hammarby's eight games this season have seen a total of 30 goals while Kalmar's eight have seen a total of 26. With each side conceding nearly two goals per game, it's not surprising that we find both near the bottom of the table. Although the season is still young, points are starting to get precious and I think we'll see both sides push for the win here, which will give us a wide open and high-scoring game.
05-13-16	Raptors v. Heat UNDER 189		91-103	Loss	-102	6 h 2 m	Show
NBA Extra Play Play: Under Rating: 5* Under is 4-0 in Heat last four home games and 8-0 in Raptors last eight road games. This will surely be a defensive battle with Miami's postseason life on the line.
05-12-16	Spurs v. Thunder UNDER 195.5	Top	99-113	Loss	-100	20 h 4 m	Show
Top Rated NBA BASKET BRAWLER Play: Under Rating: 10* The Oklahoma City Thunder can complete an upset and defeat the San Antonio Spurs to advance to the Western Conference Finals against the Warriors with a win tonight. Elimination games tend to be low-scoring contests, and I expect the Spurs to come out with a big defensive performance. Under is 4-0 in Spurs last four games following a straight up loss and 14-3 in Spurs last 17 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. Under is 9-3 in the last 12 meetings in Oklahoma City and 6-2 in the last eight meetings overall.
05-11-16	Rays v. Mariners UNDER 7		5-6	Loss	-110	12 h 20 m	Show
MLB Play: Under Rating: 8* The Tampa Bay Rays entered this three-game set against the Seattle Mariners on the back of four consecutive wins. They've struggled here at Seattle though, and the Mariners can complete the sweep with another win this afternoon. Calling a winner in this contest is tough with two quality pitchers on the mound, and my money is on the under. Chris Archer (2-4, 4.23 ERA) will toss opposite Taijuan Walker (2-2, 1.97). Archer lost each of his first four starts allowing a total of 16 earned runs, but he's been excellent lately. He has held Baltimore, Toronto and LAA to a combined two runs on 11 hits through 18 2/3 innings in his last three starts, and he has posted a 2.08 ERA in five career starts against Seattle. Walker has a stellar 1.03 WHIP and has struck out 29 and issued only three walks this year and he has posted a 2.25 ERA in four starts at Safeco Field. Walker has received zero runs of support while on the mound in his last two outings. Under is 6-1-1 in the last eight meetings in Seattle and 5-1-1 in the last seven meetings overall.
05-11-16	Liverpool v. Chelsea OVER 3		1-1	Loss	-103	10 h 11 m	Show
Premier League Play: Over Rating: 8* I expect to see plenty of goals between Chelsea and Liverpool at Anfield Road on Wednesday. Chelsea will be without defenders John Terry (suspended) and Branislav Ivanovic (injured). Six of their past seven games have gone over 2.5 goals and with nothing to play for other than pride we're likely to see an offensive Chelsea team here. Liverpool are coming off back-to-back wins against Villareal (3-0) and Watford (2-0). Five of their past six games have seen three goals or more. This is their last home game of the season, and they'll want to put on a show for the fanatic home fans.
05-10-16	Thunder v. Spurs UNDER 199.5	Top	95-91	Win	100	19 h 51 m	Show
Top Rated NBA BASKET BRAWLER Play: Under Rating: 10* The Oklahoma City Thunder and the San Antonio Spurs enter Game 5 of this series tied at 2-2. The Spurs have allowed the Thunder to dictate the pace of the games so far, but I don't think that will be the case home at AT&T Center tonight. The Spurs can simply not afford to drop another home game, and I expect them to turn the intensity up a notch in defense to stop Kevin Durant who was allowed to put up 41 points in Sunday's 111-97 Thunder win in OKC. Under is 6-2 in Thunder last eight vs. a team with a winning straight up record. Under is 5-1 in Spurs last six home games and 4-1 in Spurs last five games following a straight up loss.
05-09-16	Raptors v. Heat UNDER 190	Top	87-94	Win	100	19 h 21 m	Show
Top Rated NBA Playoffs Round 2 TOTAL OF THE YEAR Play: Under Rating: 10* The Toronto Raptors have a 2-1 lead in the series after a 95-91 win here at Miami on Saturday. Under is 9-2 in Raptors' last 11 overall and 7-1 in Heat's last eight, and I thnk this clash will stay under the total. Both teams will have to do without their starting center as Miami's Hassan Whiteside and Toronto's Jonas Valanciunas won't square off anymore in this Eastern Conference semifinal series. Offensive rebounds will now come at a premium for both teams, which should slow down the tempo as a lost possession could prove extremely costly.
05-08-16	Cavs v. Hawks UNDER 204		100-99	Win	100	4 h 0 m	Show
NBA Play: Under Rating: 8*
05-08-16	Mariners v. Astros OVER 8.5		1-5	Loss	-114	3 h 31 m	Show
MLB Play: Over Rating: 8*
05-07-16	Crystal Palace v. Stoke City UNDER 2.5		2-1	Loss	-123	34 h 7 m	Show
Premier League Play: Under Rating: 8* Tenth placed Stoke vs. 16th placed Crystal Palace. Neither team with anything to play for and Crystal Palace must be distracted by the upcoming FA Cup final against Manchester United. Palace forward Wilfried Zaha will be absent because of a leg muscle problem which could rule him out of the FA Cup final., and manager Alan Pardew will be vary to not lose any more players ahead of the big game. Stoke had conceded four goals in three straight games prior to a 1-1 draw against Sunderland last week. That's not the Stoke way, and Mark Hughes will be sure to get the defense right here. Each of Crystal Palace's last five league games have gone under the total, and this should be another low-scoring contest.
05-07-16	Sunderland v. Chelsea UNDER 2.5		3-2	Loss	-100	34 h 7 m	Show
Premier League Play: Under Rating: 8* Sunderland are desperate for points as they're battling with Newcastle and Norwich to avoid relegation. Only one of the three will stay up in the top flight, so stakes are high as they host Chelsea on Saturday. They've lost just one of their past eight games though and they've played some solid defense with only one of their pats seven going over the total. While they need the three points, going a goal down against a strong team like Chelsea would be devastating so I expect a careful approach from the home team. Chelsea celebrated like they had won the league when they drew 2-2 against North London rival Tottenham on Monday. I don't see them coming out super motivated here, but good news for the Blues is that they'll have goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois available again after a two-match suspension.
05-03-16	Heat v. Raptors UNDER 191	Top	102-96	Loss	-105	18 h 2 m	Show
Top Rated 10* NBA BASKET BRAWLER Play: Under Rating: 10* Each of the Heat's last five and seven of the Raptors' last eight have gone under the total, and I definitely think tonight's Eastern Conference Semifinals opener between the two teams will stay under. The Heat are putting up plenty of points home in Miami but they're averaging close to four points fewer in their road games than at home. Hassan Whiteside has been an absolute beast defensively so far in the playoffs and Toronto struggled to get its offense going against Indiana. The Raptors scrapped past the seventh-seeded Pacers despite terrible shooting slumps from Lowry (31.6 percent from the field in the series) and DeRozan (31.9), and they won't get any easy looks tonight.
05-02-16	Thunder v. Spurs OVER 202.5	Top	98-97	Loss	-105	31 h 55 m	Show
Top Rated NBA LATE SHOW Play: Over Rating: 10* The San Antonio Spurs put up a spectacular offensive performances when they rolled to a 124-92 win against the Oklahoma City Thunder in the opener of their Western Conference Semifinal on Saturday. Over is 7-2 in Thunder's last nine after allowing 100 points or more in their previous game, and I think we'll see Monday's encounter fly over the total too. Only Golden State finished the regular-season with a better offensive efficiency (the number of points a team scores per 100 possessions) than the Spurs and the Thunder, and while San Antonio is usually playing at a slow pace, that kind of goes out the window when playing a team like OKC which style is inviting high-tempo games. John Aldridge scored 38 points Saturday despite logging fewer than 30 minutes, and Tony Parker had 12 assists after averaging just 4.8 during the first-round series sweep of the Memphis Grizzlies. Both Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook struggled and combined for just 30 points, but the Thunder still reached 92 points. I expect more points from the duo tonight and an even higher score for OKC.
05-02-16	Chelsea v. Tottenham Hotspur OVER 2.5		2-2	Win	100	27 h 36 m	Show
Premier League Total Monday Play: Over Rating: 8* After Leicester City's 1-1 draw at Manchester United on Sunday, Tottenham Hotspur now find themselves eight points back of league-leading Leicester with three games to go and a game in hand. The Spurs will come out all guns blazing going for a win here, but Chelsea won't roll over for their London rival and I think we'll see plenty of goals at Stamford Bridge on Monday. Chelsea are off a 4-1 win at Bournemouth last weekend and four of their last five games have gone over the total. They're trying to finish off an overall terrible title-defending season in style and give their home fans something to cheer about. "I cannot guarantee the result but I can guarantee that the effort will be there, and not just on Monday." Chelsea manager Guus Hiddink said Sunday. Tottenham are off a disappointing 1-1 draw against West Brom but have scored in seven straight games with four of them going over the total. Only Man City have scored more than their 65 goals in the Premier League this season and while they have the best defensive record in the league, that won't count for much today as they'll throw everything they got on attack. We can also note that Chelsea have kept just one clean sheet in their last 10 league fixtures.
05-01-16	Valencia v. Villarreal OVER 2.5		0-2	Loss	-110	24 h 9 m	Show
La Liga Total Play: Over Rating: 8* Valencia have picked up pace since the sacking of Gary Neville. They've won three and lost just one of their last five, with a total of 11 goals scored and each game going over the total. We find Valencia at eighth place in La Liga, and they have no shot of making a Europa League spot. They're playing for nothing but their honor, and with this Valencia team that means throwing everything they have on attack. Villareal are coming off an impressive 1-0 home win against Liverpool in the Europa League and they are battling to defend their fourth place in La Liga. Villareal will come to play ball, and I think we'll see a high-scoring wide open game.
04-29-16	Blue Jays v. Rays UNDER 7.5		6-1	Win	100	5 h 48 m	Show
MLB Play: Under Rating: 8*
04-27-16	Atletico Madrid v. Bayern Munich UNDER 2		1-0	Win	100	14 h 21 m	Show
Champions League Play: Under Rating: 8* Note that: I'll be looking to put half my stake on Under 2 and half on Under 2.5 (U 2.25) privately. I think we'll see a low-scoring contest as Atletico Madrid host Bayern Munich for the opener of their Champions League semifinals tie. Atletico are in the semifinals for the second time in the past three years, and they've done so following the same recipe each time; A hardcore defense! The team has allowed just 16 goals in 35 games in La Liga and five goals in 10 Champions League clashes this season. I think it's more than fair to say that manager Diego Simeone has made Atletico Madrid the best defensive unit in the world. Atletico shut out Barcelona in a 2-0 win home at Vicente Calderon in the quarterfinals and they will be vary not to give up an away goal here. Bayern Munich have 28 goals from 10 games in the Champions League this season, the most among all teams. I don't see them sticking their neck out risking going home to Germany a goal or two down though, and a 0-0 draw is not an inconceivable result.
04-27-16	OEREBRO SK v. Ostersunds FK OVER 2.5		4-2	Win	100	6 h 49 m	Show
Allsvenskan Play: Over Rating: 5* Each of Orebro's last four games have gone over the total. They have allowed nine goals in five games and have yet to hold a clean sheet this season. Ostersund are doing surprisingly well their first season in the Swedish top flight and they are playing a positive attacking football. They're off a 0-0 draw at Gefle but had recorded back-to-back 2-1 wins prior.
04-25-16	Clippers v. Blazers UNDER 206.5	Top	84-98	Win	100	21 h 26 m	Show
Western Conf Round 1 GAME OF THE YEAR Play: Under Rating: 10* The Portland Trail Blazers will be looking to tie up Western Conference Quarterfinals series Monday night. They won Saturday's meeting 96-88 here in Portland, and I think we're in for another low-scoring encounter. The opening game of this series saw a total of 220 points scored, but both teams have played terrific defense since with just an average of 183.5 points per game in the last two. Under is 5-1 in Clippers last six overall and 5-0 in Trail Blazers last five overall. Under is 8-2 in Trail Blazers last 10 home games. "You just have to bring more energy," Clippers forward Blake Griffin told the team's official website after Saturday's defeat. "They outhustled us, they were better on the glass, they got the 50-50 balls, they had more energy, they flew around. They executed their game plan." I expect the Clippers to show better intensity on D tonight while Portland should keep up its hustle in front of the home fans. Very low chance of this game reaching the set total IMO. Game of the Year material for sure, and I'm firing a BIG BET!
04-25-16	West Bromwich Albion v. Tottenham Hotspur UNDER 3		1-1	Win	100	4 h 5 m	Show
Premier League Total Play: Under Rating: 8* Tottenham enter this game second in the Premier League, eight points back of league-leading Leicester but with a game in hand. A win today is absolutely crucial, but I think they might find it tough to break down this WBA team. They Spurs have won just one of their last four home-games against West Brom and they have not scored more than one goal in either of these games. Five of West Brom's last six games overall have gone under the total and while they have nothing to play for they always playf a solid defense under Tony Pulis.
04-24-16	Red Sox v. Astros UNDER 9	Top	7-5	Loss	-105	11 h 3 m	Show
Top Rated Sunday Night MLB Play: Under Rating: 10*
04-24-16	Warriors v. Rockets UNDER 217.5	Top	121-94	Win	100	14 h 8 m	Show
Top Rated NBA BASKET BRAWLER Play: Under Rating: 10* Only one of the previous three games in this series have gone over 200 points, but we still see an extremely high total for Sunday's matchup between the Golden State Warriors and the Houston Rockets. I think this will be another game in the series staying under the total. Houston pulled a big upset with a 97-96 win Thursday. The Warriors Stephen Curry sat out that game with an ankle injury, and even if he does play today the ankle is sure to bother him. Under is 6-0 in Warriors last six road games and 6-1 in Rockets last seven games following a straight up win. Under is 11-5 in the last 16 meetings in Houston.
04-24-16	Rays v. Yankees UNDER 7.5		8-1	Loss	-128	10 h 59 m	Show
MLB AFTERNOON APOCALYPSE Play: Under Rating: 8* The New York Yankees will be looking to complete the sweep of a three-game set against the Tampa Bay Rays Sunday afternoon. Yesterday's contest saw just a total of five runs scored, and the pitcher matchup today would suggest another low-scoring encounter. Drew Smyly (0-2, 2.91 ERA) will toe the slab for the Rays coming off an excellent outing when he struck out 11 and gave up just one hit in eight scoreless innings at Boston on Tuesday. He's 1-0 with a 1.82 ERA in six appearances (three starts) versus New York. The Bronx Bombers will turn to Michael Pineda (1-1, 5.29) who has allowed two earned runs over six innings in each of his last two starts. He's 2-1 with a 2.70 ERA in seven starts against the Rays and has held Evan Longoria to two hits in 20 at-bats. Under is 10-3-3 in Rays last 16 overall and 6-1-2 in Yankees last nine overall. Under is 4-1-2 in the last seven meetings in the Bronx and 12-4-2 in the last 18 meetings overall.
04-23-16	Pirates v. Diamondbacks OVER 9.5		1-7	Loss	-100	14 h 44 m	Show
MLB Total Domination Play: Over Rating: 8*
04-23-16	Twins v. Nationals UNDER 8.5		0-2	Win	100	5 h 37 m	Show
MLB AFTERNOON APOCALYPSE Play: Under Rating: 8* The Minnesota Twins are averaging just 3.22 runs per game on the road this season and the under is 2-6-1 in the Twins nine road games. The Washington Nationals won yesterday's series-opener 8-4, but I think we'll see less action over the plate in today's game. Tanner Roark (1-2, 3.71) will toe the slab for the Nats. He was lit up for five runs, four earned, in six innings at Miami his last time out but tossed seven scoreless innings of four-hit ball his last start home at Nationals Park. None of the current Twins hitters have faced the 29 year old prior to this contest. Minnesota will turn to Phil Hughes (1-2, 4.42 ERA) who has recorded three quality starts in as many outings this season. He has shown great command with a total of 17 Ks and only two walks through 18 1/3 innings for work and he has won seven straight starts against NL teams behind a 2.89 ERA. We will find Jim Joyce behind home plate, and the under is 9-1 in Joyce's last 10 games behind home plate.

04-22-16	Hawks v. Celtics UNDER 200.5		103-111	Loss	-105	20 h 7 m	Show
NBA Play: Under Rating: 8* Low-scoring games have been the trend so far in the NBA playoffs this year, and I expect that to hold true in Friday's meeting between the Atlanta Hawks and the Boston Celtics at TD Garden. The under is 4-0 in the Hawks last four overall and 10-4 in Celtics last 14 overall. Boston will be without its second-leading scorer Avery Bradley who is out with a hamstring injury which will hamper their offense, particularly as Marcus Smart suffered bruised ribs in Game 2 Neither team shot over 40 percent in Game 2 and Boston was a pathetic 28-of-88 from the field and 5-of-28 from behind the arc.
04-22-16	Cavs v. Pistons UNDER 200.5		101-91	Win	100	19 h 7 m	Show
NBA Play: Under Rating: 8* The Detroit Pistons gave the Cleveland Cavaliers a scare in Game 1 of the series but the Cavs still managed to grind out a win. They showed their class in Game 2 when they held the Pistons to 90 points on 43.6 percent shooting from the field, 23.5 percent from behind the arc, and I think the Cavs will come out focused on a solid defensive performance at the Palace tonight. Under is 4-1 in both the Cavaliers and the Pistons last five Conference Quarterfinals games and 4-1 in Pistons last five home games. Detroit is virtually in a must-win situation as a loss here would all but book the Cavs spot in the next round, and I can see them making this game as ugly as possible to try and eek out a win.
04-21-16	Levante v. Granada OVER 2.5		1-5	Win	120	12 h 34 m	Show
Thursday La Liga TOTAL ANNIHILATOR Play: Over Rating: 8* Granada and Levante are both fighting for the chance to play La Liga football next season as well with the teams currently 18th and 19th respectively out of 20 teams in the Spanish top flight. Granada's games this season have seen an average of 2.8 goals per game while Levante's have seen an average of 2.6. I don't think the over should be a dog here with both teams desperate for points.
04-20-16	Blazers v. Clippers UNDER 209		81-102	Win	100	11 h 33 m	Show
NBA LATE SHOW Play: Under Rating: 8* The Los Angeles Clippers coasted to a 115-95 victory in the series opener behind 28 points and 11 assists from Chris Paul, but I think we'll see fewer points tonight. The under is 4-0 in the last four meetings in Los Angeles and Portland will come into this game playing lockdown defense already trailing a game in the series. Under is 4-0 in Trail Blazers last four games following a straight up loss and under is 22-5 in Clippers last 27 when their opponent allows 100 points or more in their previous game.
04-20-16	Crystal Palace v. Manchester United UNDER 2.5		0-2	Win	100	14 h 43 m	Show
Wednesday Premier League Total Play: Under Rating: 8* Man United have a 21-7 goal-differential over 16 Premier League games at Old Trafford this season, while Crystal Palace have a 19-21 goal-differential over 16 games on the road. Man U will be looking to make up ground on Arsenal and Man City for a Champions League spot but do also have a FA Cup semi-final against Everton to come three days later. Crystal Palace are in a bigger look ahead spot with Sunday's FA Cup semi-final against Watford sure to linger on their mind and stuck in no-mans-land in the Premier League. Manchester United have never lost to Crystal Palace in the Premier League and the Eagles have failed to score in 10 of those 13 games, including five of six at Old Trafford.

Top Rated Serie A ANNIHILATOR Play: Under Rating: 10* Napoli were shut out in Saturday's 2-0 loss to Inter, and they're struggling for goals without suspended striker Gonzalo Higuain. Bologna are winless over their past eight games with only a total of two goals scored and seven goals conceded in that span. Under is 22-11 in Bologna's 33 Serie A games this season and this should be another one staying under the total.

04-18-16	Cubs v. Cardinals OVER 8	Top	5-0	Loss	-113	8 h 10 m	Show
Top Rated MLB Total Play: Over Rating: 10* The two NL Central rivals the Chicago Cubs and the St. Louis Cardinals will open a three-game set at Busch Stadium Monday night, and I think the crowd will see plenty of action over the plate. The Cubs send former Cardinals pitcher John Lackey (2-0, 5.68 ERA) to the mound and he has strugged with his new club, giving up eight runs on 14 hits in 12 2/3 frames this season. He'll face a Cardinals team that has scored a MLB-best 85 runs this season, 14 more than the Cubs who are second. The Cardinals will turn to Mike Leake (0-1, 6.97) who is 9-2 with a 3.15 ERA and winning his last five decisions against Chicago dating back to 2012. He has not had a good start to the year either though surrendering eight runs on 15 hits over 10 1/3 innings of work. He can not be encouraged by the fact that the Cardinals have made 14 errors, tied with Cincinnati for the most in the majors. Over is 5-2 in Cubs last seven overall, over is 7-2 in Cardinals last nine overall, over is 10-2-1 in the last 13 meetings.

NBA Play: Under Rating: 8*
04-17-16	Blue Jays v. Red Sox UNDER 9		5-3	Win	100	12 h 41 m	Show
MLB Play: Under Rating: 8* Both the Toronto Blue Jays and the Boston Red Sox have lineups loaded with big bats, but none of the previous two matchups of this series at Fenway have gone over eight runs and I don't think that will be the case today either. The Rex Sox send Steven Wright (0-1, 1.35) to the mound and he's 0-1 with a 2.63 ERA in three career games against the Jays. The knuckleballer allowed two runs, one earned, on six hits and three walks while striking out five in 6 2/3 innings at Toronto on April 10 and has a .226 BAA versus the Jays. It's also worth noting that Toronto's bats have been surprisingly cold this season as the team's .214 AVG ranks among the worst in baseball heading into Sunday's contests. I don't think runs will come easy for The Blue Jays either though coming up against Aaron Sanchez (0-0, 1.38 ERA) who has surrendered one earned run in each of his two turns this season and yielded a total of eight hits through 13 innings. He's 2-1 with a 2.75 ERA in 10 career games against Boston in his career. Under is 5-1 in Blue Jays last six overall and 9-2 in Red Sox last 11 home games.
04-17-16	Mariners v. Yankees UNDER 7.5	Top	3-4	Win	100	11 h 28 m	Show
Top Rated AFTERNOON APOCALYPSE Play: Under Rating: 10* The Seattle Mariners are eyeing the sweep of a three-game set in the Bronx after a 3-2 win yesterday. Calling a winner in today's contest is a tough one, but I'm confident in one thing; Runs will come at a premium for both sides. The Yankees hand the ball to their ace Masahiro Tanaka (0-0, 3.38) who allowed just four runs with 16 Ks through 14 innings against the Mariners last season. He has had little trouble to keep Seattle's big bats in check, holding Nelson Cruz hitless in 12 at-bats and Robinson Cano to 1-for-10 and has a .128 BAA versus the current team. The Mariners will turn to Hisashi Iwakuma (0-1, 4.09 ERA) who's splits would suggest a terrific outing today. He posted a 2.57 ERA in nine road-starts last year and a 1.84 ERA in six day-starts. He has the current Bronx Bombers limited to a .230 AVG over 61 at bats. Under is 5-2-1 in Mariners last eight overall and 3-1-1 in Yankees last five overall. Under is 4-0-1 in the last five meetings in the Bronx.
04-16-16	Rockets v. Warriors UNDER 225.5		78-104	Win	100	39 h 55 m	Show
NBA Total Play: Under Rating: 8* There is always a risk of playing an under with two such high-scoring teams as the Houston Rockets and the Golden State Warriors, but the nature of playoff games and the extremely high number makes me believe we'll see this one stay under the total. Golden State just finished up the best regular-season in NBA history and the chase for the record provided the Warriors with a playoff-style environment the past few weeks. I think that despite coming off two days of rest since a 125-104 win against Memphis in the season-finale, Steve Kerr must realize he and the team have a long postseason ahead of them. I don't think the Warriors will have to put in that much of an effort to beat the Rockets and they'll be happy to drag down the tempo to save energy once they've established a comfortable lead. The Warriors allowed just 101.9 points per game home at Oracle Arena during the regular-season and the under is 6-2 in Warriors last eight Saturday games. Under is 5-1 in Rockets last six road games.
04-16-16	Inter Milan v. Napoli UNDER 2.5		2-0	Win	100	5 h 9 m	Show
Serie A ANNIHILATOR Play: Under Rating: 8* Second-placed Napoli will visit fourth-placed Inter Saturday, and I think we'll see a low-scoring contest. The teams have the second and third-best defensive records in Serie A this season, both giving up fewer than a goal per game on average. The visitors will have to do without suspended striker Gonzalo Higuain which is a huge blow for them.
04-16-16	Chelsea v. Manchester City OVER 2.5		0-3	Win	100	45 h 43 m	Show
Premier League Play: Over Rating: 8* Manchester City are off a terrific defensive performance as they shut out PSG in the Champions League midweek to advance to the semifinals of hte competition. Each of their previous three games had seen three goals or more though, and I think we'll see Saturday's matchup against Chelsea fly over the total. Chelsea striker Diego Costa is available after completing his three-match suspension which will give their offense a boost while they'll be without central defender John Terry. Man City will also be without a key defender with Vincent Kompany likely to miss out with a calf problem. Chelsea have gone nine home games without a clean sheet in the league - the club's longest ever such run in the Premier League. With the amount of offensive talent on both teams I expect plenty of goals.
04-14-16	Liverpool v. Borussia Dortmund OVER 2.5		4-3	Win	100	14 h 38 m	Show
Europa League Play: Over Rating: 8* Liverpool salvaged a 1-1 draw in Germany last week, and I think we'll see a wide-open game at Anfield Road today the visiting Dortmund will have to push forward. Liverpool's offense has come alive lately and they're off an impressive 4-1 win against Stoke over the weekend. Divock Origi scored a brace coming off the bench and they have plenty of speed up front with Origi and Daniel Sturridge. Dortmund are undefeated in their last 10 away games all competitions included, and they've scored two goals or more in each of their past four on the road.
04-14-16	White Sox v. Twins UNDER 8.5		3-1	Win	100	11 h 57 m	Show
Top Rated MLB AFTERNOON APOCALYPSE Play: Under Rating: 10* The Minnesota Twins are still looking for their first win of the season despite some solid pitching. Scoring runs has been the problem and they were shut out in a 3-0 loss to the White Sox last night. Minnesota has scored a MLB-worst 13 runs in eight games and today they'll face a competent pitcher in Mat Latos (1-0, 0.00 ERA) who held the A's to one hit in six innings in his season-debut. The Twins will turn to Ervin Santana (0-0, 2.25) who gave up just two runs and six hits in six innings against Kansas City last Friday. He picked up the win in his lone 2015 outing versus Chicago after giving up two runs and six hits in seven innings and has the current White Sox team limited to a .182 AVG over 110 at bats. Each of the Twins eight games this season have stayed under the total and this line looks way too high to me.

NBA HARDWOOD HAMMER Play: Under Rating: 8* I like the Charlotte Hornets to cover the spread in a low-scoring game. The Hornets will be looking to bounce back from a 113-98 loss at Washington on Sunday, and they're 5-1 ATS in their last six games playing on no rest and 10-3 ATS in their last 13 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points. The Celtics are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games overall and the Hornets are 12-5-1 ATS in the last 18 meetings in Boston. With both teams battling for homecourt advantage for the playoffs this game will have a playoff like atmosphere and I think we'll see a defensive battle.

NBA HARDWOOD HAMMER Play: Charlotte Hornets Rating: 8* The Charlotte Hornets had suffered back-to-back losses before defeating the Knicks 111-97 Wednesday. They remain in the race for the No. 3 spot in the Eastern Conference and will definitely play to beat the Nets here. That means limiting Brooklyn's offense, which shouldn't be that big of a task anyway. The Nets have shut down veteran frontcourt players Brook Lopez and Thaddeus Young which hurt their offense big time. Under is 5-2 in Nets last seven road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600 and 4-1 in Hornets last five home games vs. a team with a road winning % of less than .400.
04-07-16	Spurs v. Warriors UNDER 210	Top	101-112	Loss	-110	22 h 48 m	Show
Top Rated Western Conf Total GAME OF THE YEAR Play: Under Rating: 10* The San Antonio Spurs and the Golden State Warriors will square off twice in the last week of the season. The Warriors will play host Thursday night, and I think points will be hard to come by for both teams. The under is 4-0 in the last four meetings in the series and the Spurs won the most recent matchup 87-79 on March 19. They were zoned in on defense in Tuesday's 88-86 win at Utah and you can always count on Gregg Popovich's team to play hard on defense. The Warriors will be looking to bounce back from their second home loss in three games with losses against Boston and Minnesota. We can note that teh under is 6-1 in the Warriors last seven games vs. a team with a winning % above .600 and 5-2 in Warriors last seven after allowing 100 points or more in their previous game, which they did in Tuesday's 124-117 OT loss against the Wolves. I don't see either coach being particularly interested in giving away their offensive gameplan but will save that for the playoffs, so we should see two pretty stale offenses.

Top Rated NBA Total Play: Under Rating: 8* The New Orleans Pelicans will visit the Boston Celtics Wednesday night. The under is 13-3 in the last 16 meetings in Boston, and this total looks a bit high to me. The injury-ridden Pels had only starter averaging more than 7.6 points in yesterday's 107-93 loss to the 76ers. Under is 21-6 in Pelicans last 27 games playing on no rest and 9-0 in Pelicans last nine vs. a team with a winning straight up record. We can also note that 26 of New Orleans' 38 road games this season have stayed under the total. The Celtics are off a pair of wins against two very different teams, as they handed the Warriors a 109-106 loss Friday followed by a 107-100 win at Lakers Sunday. They're back home after a lengthy road trip and we can note that the under is 8-1 in Celtics last nine home games following a road trip of seven or more days and 6-1 in Celtics last seven overall.
04-06-16	Tigers v. Marlins OVER 7		7-3	Win	100	17 h 33 m	Show
MLB MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE Play: Over Rating: 8* We won with the over here at Marlins Park yesterday and I think we'll see another high-scoring encounter Wednesday afternoon. Anibal Sanchez (2015: 10-10, 4.99 ERA) will take the ball for the Tigers and he struggled mightily with the long ball last season, permitting a total of 29 homers in 25 starts. He posted a 5.19 ERA on the road and a 5.35 ERA in day games. The current Miami team is batting .348 over 69 at bats against the right-hander and Chris Johnson is 5-for-12 with a pair of doubles. The Fish will turn to Jose Fernandez (2015: 6-1, 2.92) who was terrific home at Marlins Park last season compiling a 2.57 ERA in six starts. We can however note that the over is 9-4 in Fernandezs last 13 home starts and Detroit's lineup has plenty of firepower. Ian Kinsler was 3-for-6 with one homer and four RBI Tuesday and is 16-for-24 with eight RBI in his last five interleague games.
04-05-16	Jets v. Ducks UNDER 5.5		2-1	Win	100	22 h 57 m	Show
NHL Total Play: Under Rating: 5* The Anaheim Ducks lead Los Angeles by one point in the Pacific Division with four games remaining, so they'll play hard to get the win here. That usually means a solid defensive performance and the Ducks are allowing only 2.05 goals per game home in the Duck Pond this season. The Winnipeg Jets snapped a four game skid with a 5-1 home win against the Wild Sunday. We can however note that the under is 19-6-2 in Jets last 27 after scoring five goals or more in their previous game and 3-1-2 in Jets last six road games.
04-05-16	Thunder v. Nuggets UNDER 216.5		124-102	Loss	-105	10 h 24 m	Show
NBA Total Play: Under Rating: 8* The over is 5-1 in the past six meetings between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Denver Nuggets, but I think tonight's contest will stay under the total. OKC blew yet another fourth-quarter lead in Sunday's 118-110 defeat at Houston, the 13th time that has happened this season. Such performances are obviously a big no-no in the playoffs, and I think we'll see the Thunder focus on shoring up their defense here in the last regular season games. They'll probably like the fact that the Nuggets have been abysmal in the fourth quarter in their last two, totaling 35 points on 26.7 percent shooting, including 2 of 16 from 3-point range. The Nuggets have not been much of an offensive threat lately overall and the under is 4-1-1 in their last six games vs. a team with a winning % above .600.

MLB Play: Over Rating: 8* The Detroit Tigers have an impressive lineup, but their pitching staff is not quite as strong. I think we'll see several high-scoring contests involving the Tigers this season starting with Tuesday's meeting with the Baltimore Orioles. Justin Verlander (2015: 5-8, 3.38 ERA) will take the mound for the Tigers, and he was a very slow starter last season posting a 5.09 ERA in three June starts and a 4.73 ERA in five July outings. Over is 5-2 in Marlins last seven games vs. a right-handed starter. The Fish will turn to Wei-Yin Chen (2015: 11-8, 3.34) who has posted a 7.53 ERA in three career starts against the Tigers. Ian Kinsler is 5-for-12 in previous meetings with the southpaw and the over is 7-2 in Tigers last nine road games vs. a left-handed starter. Marlins Park has been pitcher-friendly since it opened in 2012. The center field wall has been moved 11 feet closer to home plate for this season and much of the outfield fence was also lowered.

MLB Total Play: Over Rating: 8* Yes, I know that Clayton Kershaw (2015: 16-7, 2.13 ERA) will take the ball for the Los Angeles Dodgers but I still think this game will fly over the total. We can note that the over is 4-0 in Kershaws last four starts vs. the Padres and he's generally starting seasons slow, proved by the fact that he posted a 3.73 ERA in April last year compared to a 1.84 ERA in September. The Padres will turn to Tyson Ross (2015: 10-12, 3.26 ERA) who had a 3.70 ERA through 16 home starts last season and opened the year with a 4.55 April-ERA. The Padres offense is boasted by the addition of Alexei Ramirez, who was signed as a free agent after hitting .249 with 10 home runs and 62 RBIs with the Chicago White Sox last season. The Dodgers defeated the Padres 6-3 on opening day last season, and we could see a similar scoreline tonight.
04-04-16	Mariners v. Rangers UNDER 7.5	Top	2-3	Win	100	16 h 42 m	Show
Top Rated MLB Total Play: Under Rating: 8* THE AL West rivals Texas Rangers and Seattle Mariners will open the season with a three-game set at Arlington starting Monday. Under is 8-2-1 in the last 11 meetings in Texas and runs are likely to come at a premium today as well. Felix Hernandez (2015: 18-9, 3.53 ERA) will take the mound for the Mariners and he had his way last year with the Rangers, holding them to a .168 average while going 5-0 with a 1.83 ERA. He's 7-0 with a 1.71 ERA in nine opening day starts lifetime. Cole Hamels (2015: 13-8, 3.65) will take the hill for the Rangers and while he posted a 4.00 ERA through 27 innings of work against Seattle last season, I think he'll hold them off today. We can note that Robinson Cano is just 3-for-18 with four strikeouts in previous meetings with Hamels who won each of his four decisions at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington in 2015, fanning at least eight in five of his last seven starts after coming over from the Phillies.
04-04-16	SPORTING GIJON v. Levante OVER 2.5		0-0	Loss	-100	14 h 19 m	Show
Monday La Liga MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE Play: Over Rating: 8* I think we're in for a high-scoring game when the worst teams in La Liga do battle Monday. Both teams are desperate for points to have any chance of avoiding relegation, so there will be no holding back. We can also note that Levante will be without two starting defenders and Sporting Gijon will miss three of their defenders, so chances should come easy against two makeshift defenses. Each of the last three meetings have seen at least three goals for a total of 12 tallies. Over 2.5 goals is 17-13 in Levante's La Liga games this season and 16-14 in Gijon's, so I think we're getting a really good price on the over here.
04-03-16	Mets v. Royals OVER 7.5		3-4	Loss	-105	11 h 21 m	Show
MLB 3-Pack Play: Over Rating: 8* The New York Mets will be looking for some early revenge for the World series defeat to the Royals last season. It's hard to say who will win, but I think runs will come fairly easy for both sides. The Royals hand the ball who has struggled during the spring and also recently dealt with a blood clot in his bladder. He posted a 7.50 ERA with nine walks through 12 innings of work in spring training. The Royals will turn to Edinson Volquez who is 2-5 with a 5.70 ERA in nine career starts against the Mets. Over is 6-0 in the last 6 meetings between the two teams.
04-03-16	Wizards v. Clippers UNDER 207.5	Top	109-114	Loss	-105	14 h 37 m	Show
NBA Top Rated Total Play: Under Rating: 10* The Washington Wizards are still playing hard as they're within striking distance of the East's No. 8 seed. They're off a 106-99 win at Phoenix Friday and the under is 6-2 in Wizards last eight games following a straight up win and 6-2 in Wizards last eight after scoring 100 points or more in their previous game. "When we play defense and we're locked in, we're a totally different team," John Wall said after the game against the Suns. "It's the end of the season, there's only six games left, but that's something we've been preaching all year." The Clippers' reserves came oh so close to defeat the Thunder Thursday but they ended up a 119-117 loser in the end. Starters Chris Paul, DeAndre Jordan and J.J. Redick plus Blake Griffin will all likely play today, which should benefit the Clippers' D. Under is 5-1 in the Clippers last six overall and 18-5 in their last 23 after allowing 100 points or more in their previous game. The Wizards have struggled in previous meetings with the Clippers as a 108-91 loss in Washington on Dec. 28 marked the 12 loss in the last 14 of this series. We should see another low-scoring encounter today.
04-03-16	Cardinals v. Pirates OVER 6		1-4	Loss	-115	4 h 52 m	Show
MLB 3-Pack Play: Over Rating: 8* The St. Louis Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Pirates are usually among the lower scoring teams in baseball, but I think we'll see the season opener between the two teams fly over the total. Adam Wainwright (2015: 2-1, 1.61 ERA) will take the ball for the Cardinals making his first start since going down last April with an Achilles' injury. He gave up eight runs and 19 hits while walking six and striking out 11 in 15 innings over four starts during spring training. The current Pirates team is batting .310 over 113 at bats against the veteran and the over is 6-2-2 in Wainwright's last 10 road starts vs. Pirates. The Pirates will turn to Francisco Liriano who conceded nine runs and 19 hits while walking two and striking out 16 in 13 1/3 innings over four starts during spring training. The Cardinals are batting .268 over 205 at bats against the southpaw and the over is 4-1-1 in Liriano's last six home starts vs. Cardinals.
04-02-16	Pacers v. 76ers UNDER 203.5	Top	115-102	Loss	-110	18 h 54 m	Show
Top Rated NBA Total Play: Under Rating: 10* The Indiana Pacers have averaged just 95 points per game over a pair of home losses to Chicago and Orlando. Under is 7-1 in Pacers last eight games following a straight up loss and 5-1 in their last six overall. They fell 114-94 to the Magic Thursday and the under is 17-5 in their last 22 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points. The pathetic Philadelphia 76ers are losers of 11 straight and are off a 100-91 defeat at Charlotte last night. They've averaged 88 points in their last two games and struggle offensively without big men Jahlil Okafor and Nerlens Noel - both sidelined with knee injuries. Indiana has won eight of nine meetings, limiting the 76ers to an average of 78 points in the last three. They defeated Philly 91-75 at home on March 21 and we should see another low-scoring affair tonight.
04-02-16	Devils v. Lightning UNDER 5		1-3	Win	100	14 h 38 m	Show
NHL Play: Under Rating: 8* The New Jersey Devils have been struggling for goals all season long and they average a lowly 2.22 goals per game. The under is 4-0-2 the in Devils last six overall and 6-1 in the last seven meetings with the Lightning. Tampa bay has lost two of its last three scoring just a total of five goals in those games. They were shut out in a 3-0 loss against the Habs Thursday and the under is 5-0-1 in the Lightning's last six following a home loss of three or more goals.
04-02-16	Chelsea v. ASTON VILLA OVER 2.5		4-0	Win	100	51 h 17 m	Show
Premier League Play: Over Rating: 8* Bottom dwelling Aston Villa will host Chelsea in Saturday's early Premier League game, and I think we'll see a high-scoring encounter at Villa Park. Aston Villa have conceded a league-worst 58 goals in 31 games this season. They've surrendered 18 in the past six games alone, and the team has not really bothered to play defense lately with relegation inevitable. Chelsea have picked up pace since the departure of Jose Mourinho and they're playing a more attractive football under Guus Hiddink. Striker Diego Costa will miss the game due to suspension, but Chelsea have plenty of offensive talent to make up for that. Five of Chelsea's last seven league and cup games have gone over the total and over 2.5 goals is 19-11 in their 30 Premier League games this season.
04-01-16	Wizards v. Suns UNDER 215	Top	106-99	Win	100	22 h 10 m	Show
Top Rated NBA Total Play: Under Rating: 10* The Washington Wizards have lost four of their last five to drop three games behind the No. 8 seed in the East. They've been struggling defensively lately, but should have little to fear from a Phoenix Suns team that shot 5-for-24 from 3-point range in Wednesday's 105-94 loss at Milwaukee. The under is 7-2 in Suns the last nine overall and 5-1 in their last six following a straight up loss of more than 10 points. The under is 4-0 in Wizards last four road games vs. a team with a home winning % of less than .400 and 9-6 in a road game where the total is greater than or equal to 210 this season. John Wall has been just shooting 36.5 percent in the first three of a five-game trip and has gone 8-for-30 in the last two games for 22 points. Under is 5-0-1 in the last six meetings and 4-0 in the last four meetings in Phoenix.

Friday La Liga ANNIHILATOR Play: Over Rating: 8* Both Getafe and Rayo Vallecano are desperate for points. They're highly involved in the relegation drama in La Liga and a draw would not do either team any good. Conclusion; both teams will go all in for the win and we should see an open high-scoring game. That has been Rayo Vallecano's style all season anyway. They have a 41-63 goal-differential for the season and 22 of their 30 league games have seen three goals or more. That have been the case for each of their last five games. Getafe are not scoring as many goals, but they defeated Rayo 3-1 in the most recent meeting. Their defense is terrible though and they've given up 13 goals in their last five games alone.
03-31-16	Coyotes v. Stars UNDER 5.5		1-4	Win	100	18 h 56 m	Show
NHL Total Play: Under Rating: 8* The Dallas Stars are the highest scoring teams in the NHL this season, but the under is 15-6-1 in the last 22 meetings with the Arizona Coyotes. The under is 8-2-1 in Coyotes last 11 overall and 4-0 in their last four when taking on a team with a winning record. Arizona's veteran netminder Mike Smith has returned from a 40-game absence with a flourish, posting a 4-1-0 mark with a 1.20 goals-against average and .965 save percentage. Dallas' Kari Lehtonen has been excellent lately as well, giving up just seven goals through his last four starts.
03-31-16	Nuggets v. Pelicans UNDER 209.5		95-101	Win	100	10 h 4 m	Show
NBA 3-Pack Play: Under Rating: 8* The Denver Nuggets won 109-105 at Memphis last night while the New Orleans Pelicans fell 100-92 at San Antonio. With both teams on the back-end of a back-to-back, I expect a low-scoring contest. The under is 20-6 in the Pels last 26 games playing on no rest and 12-4 in the last 16 meetings in New Orleans. Denver is still alive in the playoff race thanks to last night's win, and it'll play hard on defense. New Orleans' biggest offensive threats in Anthony Davis, Tyreke Evans and Jrue Holiday are all out for the rest of the season.
03-31-16	Nets v. Cavs UNDER 211		87-107	Win	100	11 h 58 m	Show
NBA Total Play: Under Rating: 8* The Cleveland Cavaliers have lost two of their last three and fell 104-95 at Brooklyn a week ago. LeBron James was rested in Tuesday's 106-100 home loss against the Rockets, but he'll be back on the floor tonight. The Nets are off a very high-scoring contest when they lost 139-105 at Orlando two days ago. The under is 5-2 in their last seven games after allowing more than 125 points in their previous game and 4-0 in their last four games vs. a team with a winning % above .600. We can also note that the under is 6-2 in the Cavs last eight when their opponent scores 100 points or more in their previous game and 4-0 in their last four vs. a team with a losing straight up record. Under is 11-5 in the last 16 meetings in Cleveland and 4-0 in the last four meetings overall. Cleveland will be looking to revenge last week's defeat, and since it lacks any kind of team chemistry right now it'll have to do it by playing solid defense.

The Blue Jackets have scored just 2.19 goals per game on the road this season and fell 4-1 loss in Washington their last time out. under is 5-2-2 in the Blue Jackets last nine overall. Columbus has mustered only six goals in its four losses to New York this season. It is 0-for-13 with the man advantage in these matchups and 0-for-14 on the power play in the last five games overall.

NHL Total Play: Under Rating: 8* The Ducks have won 22 straight regular-season matchups versus Calgary at the Honda Center where they've allowed only 2.03 goals per game this season. The Flames kicked off a four-game road trip with a 6-3 win at Arizona on Monday, but the under is 5-1 in the Flames last six after scoring five goals or more in their previous game and 6-1 in their last seven road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600. Anaheim played solid defense in a 2-1 win at Edmonton Monday and it has two more than capable goaltenders in John Gibson and Fredrik Andersen.
03-30-16	Warriors v. Jazz UNDER 204.5		103-96	Win	100	19 h 1 m	Show
NBA Total Play: Under Rating: 8* The Golden State Warriors are off a 102-94 win against Washington last night, a game that went well under the total. The total is set a lot lower for today's matchup against the Utah Jazz, but I'm backing the under in this contest too. The under is 5-1 in the Warriors last six overall and 5-1 in their last six when their opponent scores 100 points or more in their previous game. That is the case here as the Jazz are off a 123-75 blowout win against the Lakers Monday. Worth noting though that the under is 5-0 in the Jazz last five after scoring 100 points or more in their previous game. Utah is allowing just 92.7 points per game home at Vivint Smart Home Arena this season and the team is playing at the slowest pace in the NBA with only 93.4 possessions per game. Golden State won't push the tempo in the back-end of a back-to-back situation. Under is 19-7-2 in the last 28 meetings.
03-29-16	Wizards v. Warriors UNDER 227		94-102	Win	100	13 h 50 m	Show
NBA Play: Under Rating: 8* The Golden State Warriors are seeking to beat the 1995-96 Chicago Bulls’ regular-season record of 72 wins, and I would not bet against them failing. They also have to take the postseason into consideration though, and we're likely to see Steve Kerr rest his key players whenever possible. The over is 41-31-1 in games involving Golden State this season, but the under is 4-1 in its last five overall and I expect to see some lower scoring Warriors games here near the end of the season. The Washington Wizards are playing hard as they're trying to make it to the playoffs, and they put up a solid defensive performance when they held the Lakers to 37.9 percent shooting in a 101-88 win Sunday. The Lakers are obviously, no Warriors, but it was a step in the right direction and we can note that the under is 5-2 in the Wizards last seven following a straight up win. With a game at Utah tomorrow I don't see the Warriors push the pace too much, and Washington will be happy to keep this a tight close game hoping to snatch a win in the end.
03-29-16	Rockets v. Cavs UNDER 212	Top	106-100	Win	100	11 h 2 m	Show
Top Rated Total Play: Under Rating: 10* The Cleveland Cavaliers defeated the Houston Rockets 91-77 on Jan. 15 in the most recent meeting in the series. LeBron James contributed with 19 points and seven assists, but the Cavs superstar will be rested for tonight's contest. The under is 12-3-1 in Cavs games without LeBron since the start of the 2014/2015 season and I think this one will stay under the total as well. The Rockets will be looking to bounce back from a 104-101 loss at Indiana Sunday and they enter play Tuesday tied with the Mavs for the last playoff spot in the West, holding the tie-breaker. The under is 4-1 in the Rockets last five overall and 4-1 in their last five road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600. The Cavs have been without offensive chemistry for quite some time, and I don't see how the loss of LeBron will help that. The Rockets will like their chances of picking up an important win and will play hard on D. We can also note that the under is 5-0 in Rockets' games as a road underdog of three points or less this season.
03-29-16	Bruins v. Devils UNDER 5		1-2	Win	100	8 h 52 m	Show
NHL Total Play: Under Rating: 8* Goals have been hard to come by for both the Boston Bruins and the New Jersey Devils lately, and I think we'll see a low-scoring contest at Prudential Center Tuesday night. The Bruins had managed just a total of six goals during a five-game slide which they ended with a 3-1 win at Toronto Saturday. Under is 6-1-2 in Boston's last nine overall and 5-1 in its last six road games. The Devils are among the lowest scoring teams in the league this season and has scored a total of 10 goals through their last five games. They're likely to come up against Tuukka Rask who has a 1.51 GAA in seven starts and two relief efforts against them in his career.
03-29-16	Netherlands v. England OVER 2.5		2-1	Win	100	17 h 49 m	Show
Euro Friendly Play: Over Rating: 8* England erased a 2-0 deficit as they came back to defeat Germany 3-2 Saturday. I had the under in that game, and I'm not ashamed to say that I underestimated England's offensive firepower. Jamie Vardy and Harry Kane have been outstanding in the Premier League this season and now also proven that they can deliver the goods on the international scene. The striker duo tallied a goal each in the comeback and I expect to see them on the pitch from the get go in this contest (Vardy came on to play only 20 mins give or take against Germany). The Netherlands are off a 3-2 home loss home loss against France, and each of their last three games have ended with a 3-2 scoreline with each of their last five seeing three goals or more. They've failed to build on Louis Van Gaal's rock solid defense that earned them a bronze medal in World Cup in Brazil 2014, and their defending is shocking at times nowadays. Expect England to give it their all and put up a show in front of the fanatic home fans, but I don't see the Dutch going scoreless either as they do have some offensive talent.
03-28-16	Celtics v. Clippers UNDER 209		90-114	Win	100	22 h 8 m	Show
NBA Play: Under Rating: 8* The Los Angeles Clippers are coming off a pair of home wins against Portland and Denver, the most recent a 105-90 victory over the Nuggets last night. The under is 10-4 in their last 14 games playing on no rest and 12-4 in their last 16 after scoring 100 points or more in their previous game. The Boston Celtics are riding a four-game winning streak fueled by solid defensive performances and Boston leads the league in 3-point defense this season at 32.6 percent. The under is 4-1 in the Celtics last five overall. Under is 4-1 in Celtic road games where the total is between 205 and 209.5 points this season and 6-2 in Clippers home game with the total in the same span.
03-28-16	Mavs v. Nuggets OVER 214		97-88	Loss	-110	21 h 37 m	Show
NBA Play: Over Rating: 8* The Dallas Mavericks are allowing a league-worst 112.3 points per game since Feb. 5 and 124.0 per game over their past five. Their hopes of making the playoffs suffered another blow last night when they fell 133-111 at Sacramento for their 10th loss in 12 games. The over is 4-1 in the Mavs last five playing on no rest and 13-5 in their last 18 after allowing 100 points or more in their previous game. The Nuggets are also coming off a loss last night when they fell 105-90 to the Clippers at LA. The over is 6-1 in Denver's last seven playing on no rest and 18-7-1 in their last 26 home games. Over is 15-8 in the Mavs games versus poor defensive teams that are allowing 99+ points/game in the 2nd half of the season and 33-16 in Denver games versus poor defensive teams that are allowing 99+ points/game for the season.
03-27-16	76ers v. Warriors UNDER 226	Top	105-117	Win	100	18 h 34 m	Show
Top Rated Total Play: Under Rating: 10* The Golden State Warriors need to win eight of their final 10 games to finish 73-9, which would mark the best season in NBA history. The Philadelphia 76ers should be an easy obstacle to get past Sunday night. The Sixers are the lowest scoring team in the NBA with a 97.0 average and they'll be without their leading scorer Jahlil Okafor for this contest. The under is 5-1 in their last six overall and we can note that the under is 5-1 in 76ers last six after scoring 100 points or more in their previous game and they're off a 108-105 loss at Portland last night. The Warriors are the highest scoring team in the NBA with a 115.4 points per game average, but the under is 6-2 in their last eight vs. a team with a winning % below .400. and 4-1 in the last five meetings with Philly. They won 108-105 at Philadelphia on Jan. in the only previous meeting this season and I think they'll be more concerned about maintaining good energy levels rather than blow away the Sixers.
03-27-16	SPAIN v. ROMANIA UNDER 2.5		0-0	Win	100	11 h 27 m	Show
Euro Friendly Play: Under Rating: 5* Both Romania and Spain are preparing for the Euro 2016 Championship in the summer. Spain played a 1-1 draw at Italy Thursday and we're likely to see some rotation in the team for Sunday's contest. None of Spain's last five on the road have seen more than two goals with three of them ending in a 1-0 Spain win. Romania are undefeated since June 2014, going unbeaten in 16 friendlies and qualifiers much thanks to a defense that let in just two goals in qualifying for the Euros. Keep the stake low because of the uncertain nature of friendly games, but I don't think we should pass up on this opportunity to make some easy money.
03-26-16	Hornets v. Bucks UNDER 204.5		115-91	Loss	-105	21 h 35 m	Show
NBA 3-Pack Play: Under Rating: 8* This looks like a great spot to back the Charlotte Hornets to bounce back from a 112-105 defeat to Detroit last night. They're 6-2 ATS in their last eight games following a ATS loss and still battling for fourth place in the East. A win would distance themselves from the Bulls who are 4 1/2 games back at ninth place in the conference. The Bucks shot 41.7 percent in a 101-90 loss in Atlanta on Friday, their fourth consecutive loss and they've averaged just 90.0 points in their last three home games. Charlotte has won eight of 11 on the road, has won four straight visits to Milwaukee (4-0 ATS) and claimed a 98-95 victory there Feb. 19. The under is 4-0 in the Bucks last four home games and 5-1 in their last six overall. The under is 5-2 in the Hornets last seven overall and 5-2 in their last seven following a straight up loss. Under is 4-0 in the last four meetings.
