NFL Predictions: Week 5

Arizona Cardinals versus Philadelphia Eagles

The Philadelphia Eagles enter the game at 3-1, coming off a 26-24 win against the Chargers. The Cardinals are 2-2, coming off a last second win against the Colts. The Cardinals have won the last two meetings between the teams, once on the road and once at home. The teams appear to be heading in opposite directions, the Cardinals at +7 and declining on the Power Ranking Indicator, with the Eagles holding steady at +15. Similarly, the Cardinals are -3.09 and ice cold on the Team Strength Oscillator, while the Eagles are +4.01 and slowing  ... 

NCAAF WEEK 6

After a 3-0 ATS sweep in Week 5, let’s take a look at a few games for Week 6. The main strategy I want to implement is fading the public. NCAAF doesn’t have the betting volume that the NFL gets so we will have to be selective in our approach. But books are always looking to exploit public perception so hopefully we can find a few winners by fading the public in a few heavily public-bet games. Obviously, this is written on Tuesday (10/3) so always keep an eye on the changing lines and percentages.

NHL 2017-18: The puck is about to drop on opening night

The NHL 2017-18 season is about to begin, and the Pittsburgh Penguins are expected by many sportsbooks to win their third consecutive Stanley Cup. Predicting the team will win and it actually happening isn’t always what occurs. However, the Penguins have a legitimate shot of pulling off the feat.

Wednesday night October 4th sees the puck drop. Four games will take place on opening night, and the defending champions are one of the clubs taking the ice.

NCAAF UNDERS

As we know, the betting public prefers favorites and overs. While betting the total doesn’t get anywhere near the tickets that the spread bets do, there is value to be found in targeting unders.

Through Week 4 of the 2017 NCAAF season, unders have gone 158-122 (56%) and we’re going to take a look at 3 games with potential under plays for us.

English Premier League: Chelsea vs. Manchester City

The English Premier League will be headlined by the top of the table clash between Chelsea and Manchester City on Saturday. Just three points separate the two teams, and Chelsea hope to close the gap in gameweek 7.

Both clubs are playing exciting, attacking soccer and both have the Premier League title in their sights. The clash between the two sides will be the first real test for either team this term. Chelsea was last season’s Premier League winners, while Manchester City has looked the strongest team to this point.

NCAAF Week 5

NCAAF is in full swing and it’s time to jump in on the action. The main strategy I want to implement is fading the public. NCAAF doesn’t have the betting volume that the NFL gets so we will have to be selective in our approach. But books are always looking to exploit public perception so hopefully we can find a few winners by fading the public in a few heavily public-bet games.

NFL Predictions Week 4

New Orleans Saints versus Miami Dolphins

The Saints come in at 1-2, while the Dolphins are off to a 2-1 start. Despite having a worse record and playing on the road, the Saints are a 1.5 point favorite. In the last meeting between these teams in 2013, the Saints won as a home favorite. The Dolphins hold a +2.88 to -1.97 in the NFL Team Strength Oscillator and a +22 to +5 edge in the Power Ranking Indicator. Despite the underdog status, the oscillators have me leaning towards the Dolphins, which is my pick to win outright.

Arizona Diamondbacks versus Kansas City Royals

Taking a look at the teams in this inter league match up, playoff bound Arizona Diamondbacks take on the Kansas City Royals, looking to finish at .500. According to the Power Ranking Indicator, the Diamondbacks hold a +22 to +15 advantage. They also hold a +6.62 to -4.31 advantage in the MLB Team Strength Oscillator. Neither teams ranks in the top 10 in Team Volatility, therefore the favorite and underdog status will play a deciding factor in my predictions this week.

NFL WEEK 4

Sweep! 3-0 ATS in Week 3 which improves our YTD to 7-2. Let’s see if we can keep it going with a few potential plays for Week 4. The main strategy I want to implement is fading the public.

MLB World Series: Are the Indians still favorites to win it all?

There is just one week to go in the Major League Baseball regular season and the MLB playoffs begin on October 3rd.  It’s just about time for the postseason to start and a made dash for the World Series trophy.

A few weeks ago, we wrote about the Cleveland Indians and why bettors should wager on the Tribe to win the World Series. This time, let’s look at the MLB playoffs and see if the Indians are still a team that, should not only be bet on, but is being undervalued by bookies.
