This is a 5* play on Over.

Of the seven games in MLS on Wednesday, six of them went over the total. I expect that trend to continue here tonight with Austin FC playing at Charlotte. Only two teams in MLS have scored more goals this season than Austin FC. That said, their record in away matches is pretty pedestrian with a negative goal differential. Charlotte on the other hand has one of the better home records in MLS, going 6-2 with a +6 goal differential. Austin FC has gone over in four of their last five matches overall, while the over is 3-2 in Charlotte's last five matches. The most likely outcome here is a 2-1 final score.

This is a Free play on CHC -1.5.

The Cubs have split the first two games of this home series versus Cincinnati, and they are just a small favorite in Game 3.

Kyle Hendricks will toe the slab for Chicago, and he's coming off his most impressive start of the season. He tossed seven scoreless innings, striking out six in a 3-0 win over St. Louis.

The Reds are 26-48 overall this season, and 38 of those 48 losses came by at least two runs.

The Cubs have won 29 games, and 21 of those wins came by at least two runs.

This is a 5* play on Atlanta +1.5.

Bryce Harper leads the Phillies in hits, RBI and batting average, so it makes sense that they have lost back to back games in this home series versus Atlanta. They are the favorite here in Game 3, but I expect the Braves to give them a run for their money.

Ian Anderson will toe the slab for Atlanta, and his numbers are better on the road than they are at home. He's 5-2 with a 3.55 ERA in eight starts on the road.

The Phillies hand the ball to Aaron Nola, who is also better on the road than he is at home. His ERA at home is almost double what it is on the road.

The Braves are 11-2 in their last 13 road games, and they are 16-5 in their last 21 games following a win.

This is an 8* play on the BC Lions.

While the Lions play on the road for the first time this season, on short rest and without their star WR Bryan Burnham, they are only a slight favorite against a winless Redblacks squad. This actually looks like a good setup for a play on the home dog (situational), but I am not sure these teams are close in terms of talent. The Lions out-scored their first two opponents a combined 103-18. Nathan Rourke has completed 88 percent of his passes for over 700 yards and no picks. Their most recent opponent was a pretty talented Toronto team. Jeremiah Masoli threw for over 5000 yards and 28 TDs in 2018 in Hamilton, but has pedestrian numbers over the last two seasons. Last year he lost his job to Dane Evans. While I expect the Redblacks to give the Lions a run for their money, BC has won five straight head to head versus this team, and they are still the better team IMO.
