Free Selection from Jim Feist

Jim Feist's Comp Pick, Friday, May 5, 2017
05/05 08:00 PM EST NHL (3) NASHVILLE PREDATORS VS (4) ST. LOUIS BLUES.
Take: UNDER THE TOTAL.

Reason: Your free pick for Friday, May 5, 2017 comes in the NHL as Nashville heads to St. Louis for Game 5. Both teams are very strong on defense, with St. Louis #12 in goals allowed. Both goalies have been hot in the playoffs and the Blues prefer a slow, defensive-oriented pace at home. Nashville is on a 12-4-5 run under the total. St. Louis is 18-5-4 under the total against the Western Conference, plus the Under is 23-11-4 in the Blues last 38 games playing on 2 days rest. And when these teams clash the under is 54-23-9 under the total. Play Nashville/St. Louis Under the total.

Valenciennes +130

Valenciennes is #12 of the 20 teams and 3-1 in its last 4 home games. Red Star is #19/20 (8-17-10) and last in goal difference at -19. Nice value on the home team.

Play - NY Yankees w/Pineda vs Hendricks (Game 979).

Edges - Yankees: Pineda 3.14 ERA and 1.05 WHIP this season; and 20K’s and 4 BB’s his last three starts… Cubs: Hendricks 6.30 ERA and 1.60 WHIP at home this season, with 13 K’s and 9 BB’s his last three starts… With the Pinstripes 8-2 the last 10 game in this series, we recommend a 1* play on the NY Yankees. Thank you and good luck as always.

NBA | Cavs vs Raptors
Play on: Raptors +3 -115 at Bovada

Toronto played second place in their bad loss already when playing Cleveland. Toronto isn't going to allow Cleveland to do what they want on the offensive side of the ball again this time. DeMar DeRozan has been great in particular vs the Cavs, with his 29/gm and his ability to get shots off anytime he wants. His size at the SG position is a lot to handle for the Gs of Cleveland. In game 1 - the Raptors still showed something good enough to take them here.

This Cleveland team does not have the heart to beat tough teams with consistency. It took them a long time for this team to get confidence and consistency winning games they should win. They struggle to stay focused at times as their W/L has shown in the past. Not keeping their foot on the gas has been a terrible problem for them. Mentality is key here.
Raptors are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games following a straight up loss.
Toronto gets a win here at home on Friday night in Game 3.

NHL | Predators vs Blues
Play on: Predators -105 at 5Dimes

Play on the Predators -105

The Nashville Predators head back to St. Louis to take on the Blues in game-five of this series. The Predators have won both games played in St. Louis this series and lead 3-1. The Predators beat the Blues 2-1 on Tuesday night on their home ice where they split two games. Nashville has outscored the Blues in this series 11-8.

Nashville has won just two of their last seven games played in St. Louis but both of those wins were in the playoffs. Pekka Rinne will take his spot between the pipes for the Predators where he has been solid. Rinne has allowed just one goal in each of the last two games after allowing three goals in both of the two games prior.

Predators are 22-8 in their last 30 vs. Western Conference.

Predators are 7-1 in their last 8 vs. Central.

Predators are 5-2 in the last 7 meetings.

Blues are 5-12 in their last 17 Conference Semifinals games.

I am all in on the Predators right now as you should be too. After sweeping their first round of the playoffs, Nashville looks like a team that is firing on all cylinders. Rinne is playing solid in the goal right now which is what a playoff team needs. The Predators win 4-2.

NBA | Cavs vs Raptors
Play on: Cavs -1½ -110 at BMaker

We liked the Raptors in Games 1 and 2 as they played the Cavs tough in the regular season and Cleveland’s first-round series against the Pacers wasn’t a cakewalk despite it being a 4-0 sweep. But after the first two games it’s clear that Cleveland is elevation their game to another level and that this will likely be another quick series. Not only do the Raptors looked outmatched but Kyle Lowry left Game 2 with a sprained ankle and is questionable here. We don’t think Toronto has much of a chance here unless Lowry is 100%, and from what they showed us so far they don’t have much of a chance at all unless Cleveland has a bad game. But they seem very focused now and have played their best basketball of the season the last few games. They have elevated their play big time, and we like them laying the small number here on the road in Game 3

KEY STAT: Eight of West Ham’s 12 defeats to top-half sides have been by two or more goals

EXPERT VERDICT: Tottenham, now nailed-on for second spot at least, made hard work of their 3-2 home win over West Ham in November and were well marshalled for an hour by in-form Crystal Palace last week, but they found a way to win and followed up by outclassing Arsenal. Spurs should do the same to West Ham side with one win and five defeats in 11.

RECOMMENDATION: Tottenham

EXPERT VERDICT: Cologne have lost just two of their last 17 home Bundesliga matches, but they are up against a red-hot Bremen side who are undefeated in their last six on the road. Striker Max Kruse has scored ten goals in his last eight matches and he looks a cracking bet to net the game's first goal for the visitors.

KEY STAT: St-Etienne have lost just two of their 17 home league matches this season

EXPERT VERDICT: St-Etienne have been strong at home for most of the season and 12 of their last 16 games on their own patch have featured fewer than three goals. That trend could continue against Bordeaux, who have lost just two away games since Christmas but could find it tough to break their opponents down

KEY STAT: Seville have lost just one of their 17 home league fixtures this season

EXPERT VERDICT: Sociedad have kept their slim Champions League qualification hopes alive with a three-match winning streak but are likely to be consigned to the Europa League by a defeat at fourth-placed Seville. Consistent home results have been key to Seville's top-four challenge and they should be backed to inflict Sociedad's ninth away league defeat of the campaign.

EXPERT VERDICT: Home wins over relegation rivals West Ham, Swansea and Middlesbrough halted Bournemouth’s worring slide and they are now chasing a top-half finish. Stoke’s season is fizzling out and defeats at Burnley, Swansea and Leicester in their last three road trips doesn’t inspire confidence.

RECOMMENDATION: Bournemouth
