Manchester Utd V's Leeds and these two teams are at opposite ends of the table and for those of you that know about history in England this game is a war of the roses. It is sure to be a hard fought match and Man Utd will miss Casemiro but I think they will be too strong for Leeds who recently sacked their manager. For this game the under 21 coach will be taking charge of the first team and I do not think this will boost Leeds who's confidence and morale will be very low at the moment. So my prediction is Man Utd win over 2.5 goals total @2.05 on Bet365.

NBA 

Chicago VS Memphis 

Chicago is playing well putting up lots of points per game and Memphis is also playing well defeating some opponents by more then 20 points some games. The last match up was 116-110 for Memphis. Going back over both teams and there last few game its apparent that its hard to get over 230 points in a game so in this match up even though both teams are good that also means there defense is good and wont allow a blow out so i have to go under on this one .

Under 232.5 for 1.95

For future reference... is it a normal occurrence for the odds to fluctuate on behalf of @AlphaGambler?

I've seen the range change at least 3/4 times since inception of Parlay Giveaways/Picks. 🤔✍️🖋️🧾✔️🖥️⌨️🖱️👨‍💻👩‍💻

In 39 previous meetings of the matches, a clear advantage is on the side of the Paris club. Making a prediction for Marseille - PSG, we note that the capital team took 26 wins. Olympic responded with seven wins. Six other matches brought the signing of the world cup. We also note that in three of the last four matches of the matches were not scored more than two goals.

We will bet on PSG as it has a very interesting odds.

on here it wont matter as we are taking screen shots of what the odd is at that time but for parley pick comp yes it will change a bit till he makes the bet

it should change to much unless something dramatic happens like 3 forwards being pulled before the game like my last denver game lol

@steveo  So what if for example:

I have Barcelona with winning odds of 1.55 with a screenshot (I took yesterday), post it here, then whether it be 5 minutes to a fews days later the odds changed so as to be not appropriate for the odds given by @AlphaGambler?

Will he then still post the winning result picks, or just notify you to scrap it. Essentially look for other games, fights, matches, etc. that will be more applicable odds?

Appreciate the response. @steveo

I'm looking into some games, have L.A. Lakers beating Oklahoma Thunder at home, however, LB is questionable as he may not play due to soreness on left ankle. If he plays I say they win, and cover 230 points. 

The odds were changed from yesterday, it was basically 1.10- 1.50, to now 1.50-3.00, that's why I may have to switch it a little.

Speaking from experience I've been so sure on some sports events to win, that I set the bet days in advance. Then days later (before event) I get a refund from the sports book because of injuries/etc. I don't play every sports book available world-wide, on the ones I do gamble with they will take your bets with whatever odds were available before they change even minutes before the event. Never been refunded because the odds changed drastically, strangely, or even a little.

I could chat about sports books even more concerning wagering at certain times, and causes it has when all the sudden they get a 'whale' off balancing the scales...

on this one sports picks u take the sreen shoit when u make the post , so the odds at that time will be what ur locked in as but for the parley pick competition if the odds change to dramaticlly he will notify u to pick another

=> Both team to score yes 1.96 odds

Academica Viseu leads the race in the lower division to get into the top division and in such an important match there can be more attacks than 10 days ago in a head-to-head match with the favorite Porto. Having lost in the last match with Porto with a score of 3-0, Academica de Viseu can score a goal, while playing at home in front of their fans, football players can play attacking football, especially since Porto may not have the strongest football players on the eve of the race in the top division to take first place and the last 5 matches, the Porto team kept their gates shut in matches with teams of different strengths without scoring even a single goal for the favorite that, according to statistics, playing a clean sheet 5 times in a row, Porto will still get an goal.

Manchester United beat Crystal Palace in the last match and reduced the distance to the two leaders of the table, taking advantage of the losses of Arsenal and Manchester City. This will obviously give additional motivation to the Red Devils, who have revived the intrigue in the fight for the title and quite seriously expect to impose competition on their opponents. The team looks great on all lines and has gained a good pace, which makes it a clear favorite for the upcoming match. As for Leeds, there is nothing to brag about here and the club continues its fall in the table. There are only three points to the bottom of the overall standings, and with such a quality of football, the team risks losing their place in the elite. I played Manchester 1.5 goals over in previous match of them and want to play same in this one too but with 2.5 goals.
My betting tip qill be Manchester over 2.5 goals 2.6 odds.

Prediction for the match Endpoint - LDLS:
LDLS literally just made a replacement in its roster and has already managed to test the new player in practice. Afro, who came from "HIT", showed himself well in the confrontation with the Spaniards from "Moviestar Raiders" and definitely did not sag against the backdrop of teammates. This rearrangement in the roster should definitely strengthen the already promising team. Today, the French will face Endpoint in the ⅛ finals of the ESL Challenger League Season 44 Europe tournament. Who will be stronger?

Our editors believe that the “paddling pools” have great chances to win. They are now on a four-game winning streak and have improved significantly in the off-season. So the odds of 2.07 looks very valuable, especially given the latest Endpoint results. The European mix is out of shape now, its level of play has seriously dropped, although it is quite high.

It is impossible to say with absolute certainty that the European mix will be weaker today, but given all of the above, you can check the option with P2.

My two bets are going to be with L.A. Lakers vs Oklahoma City Thunder covering (over) the total points scored at 233, and L.A. Lakers scoring 119.5 or more points.

This all of course is if "King James" aka LeBron James is playing in the game, if he doesn't all my bets are going into the drainage, lol. 😆

L.A. Lakers at home have a winning record meaning above .500 (13-12) despite being 25-29 overall this season. Lakers are just missing one common starter shooting guard/small forward Austin Reaves out with a left hamstring strain, however, is on the probable list for this game. Perhaps worse news of all LB may miss this game as well with a soreness left ankle.

Thunder yesterday lost to Golden State Warriors 141-114 at Warriors house without Steph Curry playing. 

I'm mainly putting this bet because I'd love to see LeBron James beat the all-time scoring record at 38,387 points set by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar decades ago, he just needs 36 points, will this be the game...

We shall see. 🏀⛹️‍♂️🤾👑🏆🥇🥳🍾🎊🎉📺👀

I thought he closes at 11:30ish P.M. CET time zone (now 10:52) @steveo? If he says it's cool I'll go with over 233 points scored with 1.50 as allowed on Parlays.

The last head to head confrontation between the clubs took place on May 9, 2022 and the match ended with the score 2:3. If we look at the entire history of h2h matches, it indicates 6 games. Famalicão emerged victorious in 4 matches, while the club represented by Belenenses beat the upcoming rival in 0 matches, even in 2 games the teams could not identify the strongest and the meetings ended in a draw. The statistics of goals scored and conceded shows the following: 9-4.

Belenenses is from the 2nd division but my thoutgh is that the team will give 100% on the field to be able to advance to the next round in the Taça de Portugal so im betting that both of the teams will score!

 My bet: Both teams to score with 2.160 odds
