We’ve reached a very interesting time of the year where there are a ton of sports betting opportunities available at all times. Not only is the UFC in Salt Lake City this weekend and the NFL in week 5, the NHL will be kicking things off tomorrow with the Sabres and Devils facing off in Prague.
You can’t miss the excitement around the LA Dodgers and the historical season by Shohei Ohtani either. Ohtani became the first player in MLB history to record 50 home runs and 50 stolen bases in a season. October is the best part of the MLB season because it’s playoff time.
I know you’ve been waiting so let’s get into my picks of the week and 3 sports betting promotions from TrustDice, Lucky Block and Fairspin.
NFL Week 5
1) Minnesota Vikings vs New York Jets
The Vikings continue their great start of the season with another impressive win against the Packers last week. Sam Darnold looks strong and together with the Chiefs, Minnesota is the only team without a loss.
I know people had high hopes for the Jets this year but the fact that they couldn’t score a single touchdown at home against the Broncos is embarrassing. Expect a second straight loss.
Keep in mind, this game will be played in London!
Minnesota Vikings vs New York Jets
🏈 My Pick – Vikings 🏈
Odds: 1.72
2) Denver Broncos vs Las Vegas Raiders
The Broncos are out to snap an 8-game losing streak to the Raiders. Both teams have struggled so far, but Denver’s home-field advantage and strong defense should be enough to secure a win against the Raiders. With Maxx Crosby on the injury list for the Raiders, the Broncos fans will be the ones celebrating when it’s all said and done.
Denver Broncos vs Las Vegas Raiders
🏈 My Pick – Broncos 🏈
Odds: 1.70
3) San Francisco 49ers vs Arizona Cardinals
Injuries have made this season a challenge for the 49ers but you can never count out Kyle Shanahan and his boys. The fact that Christian McCaffrey had to go to Germany in the middle of a season to deal with his issues was sad to hear and hopefully he can make it back this season.
Kyler Murray looks like he has something to prove but he doesn’t have enough tools around him to deal with the 49ers. This is the biggest lock of the week!
San Francisco 49ers vs Arizona Cardinals
🏈 My Pick – 49ers 🏈
Odds: 1.32
4) Seattle Seahawks vs New York Giants
Seattle is a heavy favorite, with Geno Smith continuing his efficient play, and leads the NFC West with a 3-1 record. The Giants’ defense has struggled to contain big plays, and with Kenneth Walker and DK Metcalf on Seattle’s side, the Seahawks offense is simply too explosive.
I’m expecting an easy win for the Seahawks.
Seattle Seahawks vs New York Giants
🏈 My Pick – Seahawks 🏈
Odds: 1.38
5) Kansas City Chiefs vs New Orleans Saints
The Saints looked dynamite during the first two weeks and surprised us all before taking a turn for the worse. Going into Arrowhead for a Monday Night battle with the undefeated Chiefs is a tough task for any team.
Despite having Hollywood Brown, Isaiah Pacheco, Rashee Rice injured and Travis Kelce being off to a slow start, Patrick Mahomes keeps finding a way to win. They will take care of business on Monday Night.
Kansas City Chiefs vs New Orleans Saints
🏈 My Pick – Chiefs 🏈
Odds: 1.42
Odds and Payouts
Stake is where you’ll find these odds and for this week’s parlay, they add up to 1.96x. It’s a bit low but at the same time my picks are all favorites. When these teams step up and deliver this week, here are the payouts you can expect.
- €20 Bet = €39
- €50 Bet = €98
- €100 Bet = €196
UFC 307
The UFC is coming to Salt Lake City, Utah, this weekend for UFC 307. For a while now, there’s no hotter fighter than Alex Pereira. In case you’ve missed it, “Poatan” also happens to be a brand ambassador for Stake.
Pereira will fight Khalil Rountree but unfortunately for him, it’s going to be a rough night. I’m expecting Pereira to take care of business via a KO/TKO no later than in round 2.
I have picked a couple of more winners, including Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson. Because Pereira is such a heavy favorite, some of my other picks are a bit risky as I wanted to boost the odds a bit in order for it to be worth it. Keep that in mind and perhaps go with a smaller bet.
Alex Pereira vs Khalil Rountree
🥊 My Pick – Pereira 🥊
Odds: 1.20
Stephen Thompson vs Joaquin Buckley
🥊 My Pick – Thompson 🥊
Odds: 2.75
Roman Dolidze vs Kevin Holland
🥊 My Pick – Dolidze 🥊
Odds: 2.23
Raquel Pennington vs Julianna Peña
🥊 My Pick – Pennington 🥊
Odds: 1.59
José Aldo vs Mario Bautista
🥊 My Pick – Bautista 🥊
Odds: 1.70
Odds and Payouts
Betfury is providing the above mentioned odds and if you’re thinking about using them for this particular parlay, you’ll be looking at a mighty fine 19.89x. In other words it doesn’t take a big bet to make some money, should the fights go as planned.
- €20 Bet = €397
- €50 Bet = €994
- €100 Bet = €1,989
