Soccer

Spain - La Liga

2:45pm ET

Ath. Bilbao v Barcelona

Referee: Juan Martinez Munuera

Last Head-To-Heads at Ath Bilbao:
2-1 (Ath Bilbao win)
0-1
1-2 (Barcelona win)
0-1 (Barcelona win)

Recent Form:
Ath. Bilbao: 1-3-2
Barcelona: 5-0-1

KEY STAT: Barcelona have scored 18 of their 26 league goals in the second half

EXPERT VERDICT: Athletic Bilbao beat Sevilla in their last home game but that was a rare bright spot in an inconsistent start to the campaign. Leaders Barcelona haven't been flying out of the traps in La Liga matches - their eight first-half goals in nine games include two own goals and a penalty - but they should still make it 28 points from a possible 30 this season.

RECOMMENDATION: Draw-Barcelona Double Result (1)

Netherlands - Eredivisie

2:45pm ET

Willem II v Ajax

Referee: Dennis Higler

Last Head-To-Heads at Willem II:
1-3 (Ajax win)
0-4 (Ajax win)
1-1
2-4 (Ajax win)

Recent Form:
Willem II: 3-3
Ajax: 4-1-1

KEY STAT: Willem II have lost four of their last five home league games

EXPERT VERDICT: Ajax have scored four goals in each of their last three league matches and can maintain their scoring spree with an easy victory at strugglers Willem II. Any doubts over Ajax's title credentials were answered with a 4-1 success at champions Feyenoord on Sunday and they should be far too strong for their poor hosts, who have lost three of four home games.

RECOMMENDATION: Ajax-Ajax Double Result (1)

Italy - Serie A

2:45pm ET

Roma v Bologna

Last Head-To-Heads at Roma:
3-0 (Roma win)
1-1
5-0 (Roma win)
2-3 (Bologna win)

Recent Form:
Roma: 4-1-1
Bologna: 3-2-1

KEY STAT: Roma have kept clean sheets in five of their last seven league fixtures

EXPERT VERDICT: Roma boast the best defensive record in Serie A and are likely to shutout Bologna in the capital. The Wolves may hold something back for next Tuesday's clash at home to Chelsea but should still be too strong for their mid-table opponents with new boss Eusebio Di Francesco making sure his side are strong in both boxes.

RECOMMENDATION: Roma to win 2-0 (1)

College football's biggest betting mismatches: Week 9

Running back Justin Jackson and his Northwestern teammates are in for a tough challenge against the Michigan State Spartans' stingy run defense on Saturday afternoon.

Rutgers Scarlet Knights at Michigan Wolverines (-23.5, 43.5)

Rutgers’ pass offense vs. Wolverines' pass defense

The Michigan Wolverines are clinging to a spot in the top 25 rankings after taking it on the chin in a 42-10 drubbing at the hands of Penn State last weekend. And with challenging road games against Wisconsin and Ohio State coming up next month, Jim Harbaugh's crew could be staring at a four-loss conference schedule. But first, the Wolverines will look to bounce back against a Rutgers team that has had all sorts of problems generating offense through the air.

The Scarlet Knights evened their conference record at 2-2 last week with a 14-12 victory over Purdue, but it was far from pretty. Host Rutgers managed just five first downs while going 3-for-15 on third downs and generating a paltry 87 passing yards. The Scarlet Knights rank 121st out of 129 Division I teams in passing yardage per game (133.6) and have produced only five passing touchdowns through their first seven games.

Those totals aren't likely to increase at The Big House, with the Wolverines still boasting one of the most imposing pass defenses in the nation despite getting gouged for 282 yards through the air against the Nittany Lions on Saturday. Michigan is limiting opponents to 158.6 passing yards per contest, the fifth-best rate in the country.

Oklahoma State Cowboys at West Virginia Mountaineers (+7.5, 73.5)

Oklahoma State's discipline vs. West Virginia's flag epidemic

Things are about to get a whole lot tougher for the Cowboys, as this week's matchup against the Mountaineers kicks off a stretch of three straight games against ranked opponents. But great discipline should give Oklahoma a decided edge against a West Virginia team that can't seem to stop getting flagged.

The Cowboys dominated play against the Longhorns, finishing with twice as many first downs while racking up nearly 150 more yards of total offense. Oklahoma State also had a considerable edge in penalties, picking up just two for 20 yards. The Cowboys rank 35th in the nation in fewest penalty yards per game (45.9).

Discipline has been a bit of a problem area for the Mountaineers, whose 70 penalty yards per game ranks 114th in the country. Flag problems played a role in West Virginia nearly squandering a 25-point fourth quarter lead in a wild 38-36 win over the Baylor Bears; the Mountaineers picked up 11 penalties for a whopping 134 yards in the game, including two pass interference flags and a personal foul call that aided in Baylor's 23-point fourth quarter.

Michigan State Spartans at Northwestern Wildcats (+1.5, 40.5)

Michigan State's run defense vs. Wildcats' rushing attack

Only nine Division I teams are allowing fewer than 100 rushing yards per game so far this season - and the Spartans are a proud member of that list, limiting opponents to a 93.6-yards-per-game average. The Hoosiers managed just 95 yards on 35 carries - good for a 2.7 YPC average that lowered Michigan State's season average to 2.9.

The Northwestern running game has a dependable horse in Justin Jackson - averaging 4.5 YPC with six touchdowns - but not much else. The Wildcats rank just inside the top 100 nationally in rushing yards per game (136.9) while averaging just 3.6 YPC as a unit.

And while Jackson has looked good against weaker opponents, he was held to just 91 yards on 25 scoreless carries against Ohio State and Wisconsin. Look for him to struggle again this week against the Spartans' vaunted run D.

TCU Horned Frogs at Iowa State Cyclones (+6.5, 52)

TCU's third-down conversion rate vs. Cyclones' third-down defense

The Horned Frogs have vaulted themselves into the national title picture following a thorough 43-0 beating of visiting Kansas over the weekend. TCU has been one of the most balanced teams in the nation so far, with impressive victories over Oklahoma State and West Virginia on its resume.

This week's encounter with the formidable Cyclones should be a tightly-contested affair, but TCU comes in with a significant edge when it comes to third-down play.

No team has been more prolific at extending drives than the Horned Frogs, who have converted a whopping 56.2 percent of their third downs into first downs or points. TCU's 59 total conversions also lead the nation.

The Cyclones, meanwhile, rank outside the top 100 in Division I in third-down conversion rate against, allowing opponents to score or extend drives on 44.1 percent of opportunities. In its two losses, Iowa State allowed Iowa and Texas to convert 18 of their 38 third-down chances.

If the Cyclones can't find a way to prevent TCU from extending drives, it could be a long game.

NCAAF Opening Line Report: Massive Big Ten matchup highlights Week 9

Saquon Barkley and Co. steamrolled Michigan 42-13 as a 7.5-point home favorite Saturday, while Ohio State has covered three straight with a 48.7 average margin of victory. The Buckeyes opened at -7.

No. 2 Penn State Nittany Lions at No. 6 Ohio State Buckeyes (-7)

Penn State was expected to get a test in Week 8, but it seemed like the Nittany Lions (7-0 SU, 5-1-1 ATS) knew all the questions in advance and certainly had all the answers. Saquon Barkley and Co. steamrolled Michigan 42-13 as a 7.5-point home favorite Saturday.

Ohio State (6-1 SU, 4-3 ATS) has won five in a row, all in huge blowout fashion, since an upset home loss to Oklahoma in Week 2. The Buckeyes had a bye in Week 8, following a 56-14 bashing of Nebraska as a 23.5-point road chalk.

“No surprise that this game is getting the most early action, by far,” Mason said. “Ohio State has been slaughtering everyone in its path recently, covering its last three games with a 48.7 average margin of victory. Penn State has been very generous to bettors all season long. Sixty-nine percent of early bettors are counting on yet another Penn State cover.”

The Buckeyes opened -7, but all that Nittany Lions early action quickly dropped the number to 5.5.

No. 15 North Carolina State Wolfpack at No. 10 Notre Dame Fighting Irish (-7)

Notre Dame is absolutely in the picture for the four-team College Football Playoff, provided it keeps on playing like it did in Week 8. The Fighting Irish (6-1 SU and ATS) entered Saturday’s home game as 4-point favorites against longtime rival Southern Cal and exited with a 49-14 blowout victory.

North Carolina State (6-1 SU, 3-4 ATS) is no slouch either, peeling off six consecutive SU wins since losing its opener to South Carolina. The Wolfpack are coming off a bye week, after rolling past Pittsburgh 35-17 giving 11.5 points on the road in Week 7.

“Notre Dame’s beatdown of USC was one of the biggest winners of the weekend for the public,” Mason said. “With the easy cover over the Trojans, the Irish have ripped off five straight covers. However, 59 percent of early bettors are on North Carolina State, although I believe we will actually need the Wolfpack by kickoff.”

After the initial Wolfpack push, some Notre Dame money showed by early Sunday evening, taking the opening line of -7 up to 8.5 before it peeled back to 7.5 at BetOnline.

No. 3 Georgia Bulldogs vs. Florida Gators (+13)

Unbeaten Georgia looks to stay on track for a berth in the SEC championship game. The Bulldogs (7-0 SU, 5-2 ATS) had a bye in Week 8, after dismantling Missouri 53-28 laying a hefty 28.5 points on the road in Week 7.

Florida is on a two-game skid and finds itself at .500 halfway through the season. The Gators (3-3 SU, 2-4 ATS) are also coming off a bye, after back-to-back tight home losses to Louisiana State – 17-16 as a 1.5-point ‘dog – and Texas A&M – 19-17 as a 3-point fave.

“Early bettors got a bargain jumping on Georgia -13, before the number moved across 14 to -14.5,” Mason said. “Even though Florida covered its last four games versus Georgia, 76 percent of bettors for the ‘World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party’ are on the Bulldogs minus the points.”

No. 11 Oklahoma State Cowboys at No. 23 West Virginia Mountaineers (+7)

Oklahoma State has won three in a row SU as it tries to put its season back together following a Week 4 home loss to still-undefeated Texas Christian. In Week 8, the Cowboys (6-1 SU, 4-3 ATS) barely survived at Texas, winning 13-10 in overtime while falling short as 7-point favorites.

West Virginia (5-2 SU, 4-3 ATS) has won five of its last six, with the only setback in that stretch also against TCU. However, the Mountaineers did not look good this past weekend in the fourth quarter against hapless Baylor. West Virginia held a 38-13 lead as a 10.5-point road chalk, but got outscored 23-0 in the final frame, hanging on for a 38-36 victory.

“The public profited off of Oklahoma State big time to start the season,” Mason said, alluding to the Cowboys’ 3-0 SU and ATS start. “Since then, the Cowboys have failed to cover in three of their last four games. Despite that recent cold streak, only 37 percent of early bettors are on West Virginia.”

BetOnline opened the Pokes -7, with early action bouncing the line down to 6, then up to 8 before hitting 7.5 Sunday evening.

Big games in Week 9, then playoff rankings
October 25, 2017

Three days before the first College Football Playoff rankings of the season are released, No. 2 Penn State and No. 6 Ohio State will play a game that could complicate the selection committee's task down the road - if the Buckeyes win.

The Nittany Lions will try to win back-to-back games against ranked Big Ten East rivals in Columbus, Ohio, on Saturday and put the Buckeyes' championship hopes - both Big Ten and national title - in critical condition.

Penn State (7-0) staying undefeated against the Buckeyes (6-1) means the Nittany Lions can put a vice grip on the division with a win the following week against No. 16 Michigan State. Penn State's final three games are against Rutgers, Nebraska and Maryland. A Penn State-Wisconsin Big Ten title game might not guarantee the winner a playoff spot - but it might. It would probably make the Big Ten fairly easy to sort through in the national picture.

If Ohio State wins it gets trickier because that home loss to Oklahoma is still sitting there, working against not just the Buckeyes but the whole Big Ten. And for the Michigan State fans saying, `Hey, don't forget about us,' the Spartans' lopsided loss to Notre Dame could turn out to be a stumbling block, too.

Penn State-Ohio State is one of several games the committee surely will be focused on this weekend. No. 14 North Carolina State starts what is set up to be the most significant two-week stretch of football in who knows how long with a road game against No. 9 Notre Dame. The Wolfpack gets No. 7 Clemson at home next week. For the second week in a row, the Irish host what amounts to a playoff eliminator after they bounced Southern California last week.

On Tuesday, Halloween night, the committee will provide its first impression of the season.

British Columbia Lions (6-10 SU, 5-10-1 ATS) vs. Winnipeg Blue Bombers (11-5
SU, 12-4 ATS)

Point-spread: Winnipeg -5.5
Total: 55.5

Game Overview

With BC officially eliminated from postseason contention, you have to question just how motivated the Lions will be on Saturday in the midst of a five-game losing streak both SU and ATS. They have remained competitive during this slide with four losses by six points or less. Jeremiah Johnson led the team in rushing with 32 yards on nine carries in last week’s loss to Edmonton and he also caught six passes for 44 yards.

The Blue Bombers are still trying to lock up home field advantage in the West for the opening round of the playoffs in light of last week’s loss. Weston Dressler had a big day catching the ball in that losing cause with eight catches for 129 yards and a touchdown. Winnipeg quarterback Matt Nichols completed 75.8 percent of his 33 passing attempts for 268 yards to raise his season total to 4,442 as the third leading passer in the CFL.

Betting Trends

The home team in this West Division matchup is 6-1 SU in the last seven games with Winnipeg going a perfect 7-0 ATS. The total has gone OVER in five of the last six meetings.

Calgary Stampeders (13-2-1 SU, 9-6-1 ATS) vs. Edmonton Eskimos (10-6 SU, 6-10 ATS)

Point-spread: Calgary -4
Total: 54

Game Overview

With the pressure of keeping that extended SU winning streak alive gone following that Week 18 loss, Calgary can begin the process of preparing for a Grey Cup title run as the top seed in the CFL. Looking back at last season’s run to the top spot in the regular season; the Stampeders saw their SU 14-game winning streak also come to an end in a Week 20 loss to Montreal.

Edmonton needs a win in this game to keep its chances of hosting a playoff game alive. Going back to a Week 16 victory against Montreal on the road, the Eskimos have piled up an average of 35.7 points over their last three games. Mike Reilly added 397 more passing yards to his league-high 5,252 yards in last week’s win and Adarius Bowman caught nine passes for 136 yards and a score to lead all receivers.

Betting Trends

Calgary won both games SU this season to extend its SU winning streak in this series to five games. The Stampeders have the slight 3-2 edge ATS with the total going OVER in four of those five games.

NHL Situational Betting

Saturday October 28

San Jose Sharks at Buffalo Sabres – The Sharks have a horrendous record in Buffalo dating back about 15 years, which is mostly an irrelevant trend since so much has changed over the years, but somebody will bring it up. What I’m going to bring up here is that this is a 1 p.m. puck drop. The Sharks have been in East Coast time for a while, so maybe it isn’t a big deal, but I think it still could be. This is the last game of the road trip and San Jose hosts Toronto on Monday. The Sabres have two days off before this one. I think this is one of those mail it in games that we sometimes see for San Jose, especially if they play well earlier in the week against the Rangers and Bruins. Numbers guys have been finding some edges on the Sabres because of how poorly they’ve started the year. The early start may be built into the line, but don’t surprised if Buffalo is a plus money dog with value Saturday afternoon.

Chicago Blackhawks at Colorado Avalanche – Regardless of what happens the night before, the Avalanche should hold the upper hand here against the Blackhawks. For Chicago, this is quite a flat spot. After playing the Predators on home ice on Friday, the focus after this one turns to the three days off and then a visit from Philadelphia on Wednesday. The Avalanche are trying to reestablish that home ice advantage in the altitude and this is a good spot to do it catching plus money at home.

Washington Capitals at Edmonton Oilers – A really big week for the Oilers wraps up with the Capitals at home. On Tuesday, the Oilers played the Penguins. On Thursday, they hosted the Stars, who a lot of people liked for Stanley Cup futures coming into the season. Now, the Capitals are in town and it is a good time to catch the Capitals. This is the front end of the Alberta back-to-back with a matchup against Calgary on deck. The Capitals are also scuffling a bit, much like the Oilers, who can’t find ways to score goals. See how the Oilers fare in their first two games this week. Washington has some defensive injuries and some other issues, so a rejuvenated Oilers bunch off of a couple good games might be worth a look here.

Columbus Blue Jackets at St. Louis Blues – The Blue Jackets visit the Blues on Saturday night and it is not a good spot for Columbus. After hosting Winnipeg on Friday night, the Jackets board a plane for St. Louis. We’ll likely see backup Joonas Korpisalo in this standalone road game with Boston coming up on Monday night at Nationwide Arena. It is the third game in four nights and also a back-to-back with travel for the Blues. You can make a strong case that it is a bad spot for both teams. Typically, when that’s the case, I lean towards the home team, but we’ll have to see how the price looks for this one.
