KEY STAT: Sweden’s late equaliser against Portugal is the only goal the favourites have conceded in this tournament

EXPERT VERDICT: Portugal’s thumping 5-0 win over Germany has not caused the prices to shift as much as punters might expect and it is hard to find too much fault with the Esperancas' rock-solid performances during this tournament. They should edge to victory in the final against Sweden, who held them to a group-stage draw.

RECOMMENDATION: Portugal

KEY STAT: Lionel Messi has averaged 5.5 shots per game

EXPERT VERDICT: Paraguay sucked the life out of Brazil before beating them on penalties but they are unlikely to do the same to Argentina in this semi-final. Lionel Messi has not been at his prolific best during the Copa America but he has had significantly more shots than any other player and looks value to open the scoring.

RECOMMENDATION: L Messi to score first

KEY STAT: St Johnstone have lost one of their last nine fixtures

EXPERT VERDICT: St Johnstone failed to win any of their four Europa League qualifiers last season but should have the edge over ordinary Armenian side Alashkert in the capital, Yerevan. Recent experience of European football should be an advantage for St Johnstone and they have nothing to fear from Alashkert, who finished 23 points adrift in last season's Armenian title race.

RECOMMENDATION: St Johnstone

KEY STAT: West Ham have conceded one or no goals in six of their last eight home games

EXPERT VERDICT: West Ham are unlikely to be anywhere near 100 per cent at this stage of the summer but should still have few problems in their first qualifying round first leg against Andorran side Lusitans. Slaven Bilic will want his players to be getting into good habits from the start of his reign and keeping a clean sheet will be a priority.

RECOMMENDATION: West Ham to win 4-0

KEY STAT: Shkendija have kept one clean sheet in their last seven home games

EXPERT VERDICT: Aberdeen battled through to the third qualifying round of last season's Europa League and have high hopes of making a strong start to the 2015-16 competition when facing Macedonian side Shkendija in Skopje. Shkendija lost 3-2 on aggregate to Moldovan side Zimbru Chisinau at the same stage of last year's tournament and the Aberdeen tie looks a shade tougher for them.

RECOMMENDATION: Aberdeen to win 1-0

Five To Follow MLB Betting: Tuesday, June 30, 2015 Opening Line Report
by Alan Matthews

Are you a fan of the Home Run Derby at the All-Star Game? I think it has gotten stale, but it’s also all that goes on that Monday in the sports world. Apparently baseball wanted to spice things up for the Derby as new rules have been unveiled, and I rather like it. It’s no longer American League vs. NL batters. It’s just a single-elimination eight-player field bracket-style. The players will be seeded based upon regular-season home runs through July 7, although not necessarily the top eight home-run hitters will be in the field. Miami’s Giancarlo Stanton, who leads the majors in dingers, won’t be in the Derby, for example, after breaking a bone in his wrist over the weekend. And there aren’t outs any longer. Each batter will have five minutes to hit as many home runs as he can. In the last minute, the timer will stop on a home run and not start again until the batter swings and doesn’t hit a home run. You can also get bonus time for distance. Interesting.

Rangers at Orioles (-141, 8.5)

If Josh Hamilton isn’t activated off the disabled list for Monday’s game by Texas then he will be here. He has been out since May 31 with a hamstring injury. Hamilton hit .273 with two homers and five RBIs in seven games this season. The team will keep promising rookie Joey Gallo on the big-league roster even with Hamilton’s return. Colby Lewis (7-3, 4.10) is on the mound for Texas. He has had a good month of June with five quality starts, a 3-0 record and 3.08 ERA. Orioles shortstop J.J. Hardy is 5-for-15 with two homers and four RBIs against Lewis. Baltimore starts Miguel Gonzalez (6-4, 3.58). He returned from a two-week disabled list stint last time out and allowed four runs and eight hits over five innings vs. Boston. Hamilton is 1-for-11 with five strikeouts career vs. Gonzalez.

Key trends: The Rangers are 6-1 in Lewis’ past seven vs. teams with a winning record. The Orioles are 4-0 in Gonzalez’s past four on Tuesday. The “over/under” has gone under in eight of Gonzalez’s past 10 at home. Texas is 0-4 in Lewis’ past four in Baltimore.

Early lean: Orioles and over.



Red Sox at Blue Jays (-139, 8.5)

Boston outfielder Hanley Ramirez is undergoing an MRI on his bruised left hand on Monday — he was hit in the hand by a line drive off the bat of teammate Xander Bogaerts last Wednesday — and could be headed to the disabled list. Ramirez has been pretty good this season, batting .283 with 15 homers and 38 RBIs. The Sox lost starting second baseman Dustin Pedroia to the DL a few days ago. The Sox start lefty Eduardo Rodriguez (3-2, 4.33) here. He faced the Jays on June 14 and had the worst start of his young career, allowing nine runs and eight hits over 4.2 innings. Ryan Goins was 1-for-2 off him with a three-run homer. go to askthebookie. Russell Martin had two hits and two RBIs. Toronto’s Marco Estrada (5-3, 3.45) became the first pitcher since Dave Stieb (a former Blue Jay) in 1988 to take a no-hitter into the eighth inning in back-to-back starts. He is 2-0 with a 5.63 ERA vs. Boston this season. David Ortiz is 2-for-7 with a homer and three RBIs vs. Estrada.

Key trends: Toronto is 4-0 in its past four at home vs. a lefty. The over is 4-1 in Estrada’s past five.

Early lean: Jays and over.



Cubs at Mets (-110, 7)

This could be a pseudo-job interview for Mets lefty pitcher Jonathan Niese (3-7, 4.12) and it’s an ESPN game so will have live betting at the sportsbooks. The Mets are awash in young pitching and prepared to trade Niese. The Cubs and Dodgers are both very interested. The 29-year-old hasn’t won since May 9 when his ERA was at 1.95. He has given up three or fewer earned runs and pitched at least six innings in each of his last four starts. Niese pitched at the Cubs on May 14 and allowed six runs in 6.1 innings. Starlin Castro is 5-for-22 with a homer and five RBIs off Niese. Chicago’s Kyle Hendricks (2-4, 4.46) hasn’t lasted more than five innings in any of his past four outings. He hasn’t faced the Mets in 2015.

Key trends: The Cubs are 2-5 in Hendricks’ past seven on the road. The Mets are 2-5 in Niese’s past seven at home vs. teams with a winning record. The over is 8-0 in Hendricks’ past eight road starts vs. teams with a winning record. The over is 5-1-1 in Niese’s past seven vs. Chicago.

Early lean: Mets and over.



Pirates at Tigers (-118, 7.5)

Like this pitching matchup because Pittsburgh’s Gerrit Cole reminds me of the good version of Justin Verlander of Detroit. Cole (11-3, 2.16) is probably your NL Cy Young favorite right now. He did have a six-start winning streak snapped last time out, allowing five runs in 4.2 innings against the Reds. Only a handful of Tigers have seen him. Yoenis Cespedes is 2-for-6. Ian Kinsler is 0-for-6. Verlander (0-1, 6.17) had his last start skipped due to back troubles but was fine after a bullpen session Saturday. Andrew McCutchen is 2-for-13 with two doubles and two RBIs against him. Pedro Alvarez is 1-for-10 with six strikeouts.

Key trends: The Pirates are 6-1 in Cole’s past seven on the road. The Tigers are 3-7 in Verlander’s past 10 vs. teams with a winning record. The under is 6-2 in Cole’s past eight interleague starts.

Early lean: Pirates and under.



Giants at Marlins (-105, 7.5)

The loss of Stanton for 4-6 weeks just about ends this season for the disappointing Marlins so I expect them to start selling off pieces soon. Stanton broke the hamate bone in his left wrist during the Marlins’ 7-1 loss to the Dodgers on Friday night and had surgery Sunday. He leads the majors with 27 homers and 67 RBIs. One of those guys who could be dealt is Tuesday starter Mat Latos (2-5, 5.49), who will be a free agent after the season. Latos pitched in San Francisco on May 10 and allowed one run over seven innings in arguably his best start of the year. go to askthebookie. Buster Posey is 3-for-13 with a homer off him. The Giants’ Ryan Vogelsong has thrown 12.2 scoreless innings over his past two starts. He also pitched May 10 vs. Miami and allowed a run and four hits over seven innings. Dee Gordon is a career .344 hitter off him in 32 at-bats.

Key trends: The Giants are 4-1 in Vogelsong’s past five on the road. The over has hit in eight of his past 11 road starts. The over is 4-1 in Latos’ past five. The under is 5-1 in Vogelsong’s past six vs. Miami.

Early lean: Giants and under (fade Marlins until Stanton gets back).

Game of the Day: Pirates at Tigers

Pittsburgh Pirates at Detroit Tigers (+109, OFF)

Gerrit Cole makes his second attempt to become the first 12-game winner in the majors when the Pittsburgh Pirates visit the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday night in the opener of a three-game series. Cole will lock up with Detroit’s Justin Verlander, who will be making only his third start of the season after skipping his last turn due to back stiffness.

Despite owning one of the best records in baseball, Pittsburgh is already staring at a wild card after falling nine games behind first-place St. Louis in the National League Central. The Pirates have lost six of nine after dropping a 2-1 decision in Sunday’s series finale to visiting Atlanta. The Tigers enter the series off a dramatic victory, rallying from a four-run deficit in the eighth inning before prevailing on rookie James McCann’s walk-off homer against the Chicago White Sox. Detroit won two of three at Pittsburgh in April, with the one loss coming against Cole, who is 6-1 in eight interleague starts.

TV: 7:08 p.m. ET, ROOT (Pittsburgh), FSN Detroit

LINE HISTORY: Sportsbooks opened the Tigers +109, which is where the line was sitting at the time of writing.

INJURY REPORT:

Pittsburgh – C. Hart (15-day DL), A. Lambo (60-day DL), J. Sellers (60-day DL), B. Cumpton (out for season).

Detroit – J. Verlander (Probable), K. Lobstein (15-day DL), A. Avila (15-day DL), J. Nathan (out for season).

WEATHER FORECAST: There is currently a 24 percent chance of precipitation at game time. The forecast is calling for temperatures of 76 degrees Fahrenheit in the Pittsburgh area.

WHAT CAPPERS SAY: “The Pirates treaded water last week but are still nine games over .500 with a +46 run differential. McCutchen is hurting a bit from being hit on the elbow by a pitch, but x-rays were negative and he won’t go on the DL. Pitching continues to be second only to Cards. We’re now finding out how much the Tigers missed Victor Martinez’s bat in their lineup. For a guy who can’t play the field anymore, V-Mart is awfully valuable to this team.” Al McMordie

PITCHING MATCHUP: Pirates RH Gerrit Cole (11-3, 2.16 ERA) vs. Tigers RH Justin Verlander (0-1, 6.17)

Cole had his six-start winning streak halted in abrupt fashion, giving up four first-inning runs and lasting a season-low 4 2/3 innings in a 5-2 setback versus Cincinnati. Cole was charged with five earned runs, matching his total allowed from his previous six turns and marking the first time he surrendered more than three runs this season. The former No. 1 overall pick has been superb on the road with a 6-1 mark and 1.71 ERA.

After a decent season debut in which he limited Cleveland to two runs and three hits over seven innings, Verlander was rocked in his next outing at the New York Yankees. The former Cy Young Award winner and league MVP was tagged for six runs on 10 hits, three of which came on home runs, over 6 2/3 innings. Verlander is 4-1 with a 3.00 ERA in five starts against the Pirates and has kept center fielder Andrew McCutchen (2-for-13) in check.

TRENDS:

Pirates are 6-1 in Coles last 7 road starts.
Tigers are 4-1 in Verlanders last 5 starts vs. Pirates.
Under is 8-1-1 in Coles last 10 starts overall.
Pirates are 2-8 in the last 10 meetings in Detroit.

CONSENSUS: Fifty-nine percent are currently on the Tigers.

See spot. See spot bet: This Week’s Best Spot Bet Opportunities
By Ben Burns

Spot bets are classic handicapping practices that have proven profitable no matter what sport you’re betting. Whether it’s a team looking past this week’s opponent, one coming off a hard-fought victory, or a rough patch of schedule, bettors can find value picking their spots. Expert Ben Burns points out his favorites:

Letdown spot

Before you set off the Fourth of July fireworks this weekend, America’s neighbors to the north celebrate their country on Wednesday, July 1, better known as “Canada Day”. And few things are more Canadian than enjoying the holiday with a cold 5 percent beer and flicking on the Blue Jays game – or catching Canada’s team live in action at the Rogers Centre. The Canada Day game is always a big deal for the club, with a packed house and tons of festivities at the ballpark (when playing at home) as well as knowing a good chunk of the country is tuning in.

So that leaves Toronto open for a big letdown the following day – July 2. The Blue Jays have struggled with the letdown spot following the holiday for the past 15 years. Going back to 2000, Toronto is just 4-10 on July 2 (didn’t play on that date in 2009) and has allowed an average of almost 5.8 runs in those contests, leading to an 8-5-1 Over/Under mark in those games. The Jays host the rival Red Sox, who always draw a big crowd in T.O., for four games starting Monday, including the July 1 and July 2 contests.

Schedule spot

The Atlanta Falcons have high hopes for new head coach Dan Quinn, the architect of the Seattle Seahawks’ dominating defense the last two seasons. Quinn, who signed a five-year deal with Atlanta this February, has inside info on the Falcons’ Week 9 opponents: the San Francisco 49ers. go to askthebokie. During his tenure in the NFC West, Quinn would have missed plenty of sleep game planning for San Francisco and won’t have any trouble kicking this old foe while their suffering through what is expected to be a down year in the Bay Area.

That Week 9 matchup at Levi’s Stadium is especially tough for the Niners, playing at St. Louis in Week 8 and looking ahead to a bye in Week 10 and road matchup with Quinn’s old club, Seattle, in Week 11. Oddsmakers opened with San Francisco as a 6-point home favorite in this matchup but there’s solid value with a well-informed road side – even more so if this game is hovering around a touchdown.

Lookahead spot

The New York Mets are currently enjoying the tail end of a six-game home stand, hosting the Chicago Cubs at Citi Field for three games. New York has been night-and-day when it comes to venue, boasting a 29-11 home record and an 11-26 road mark. The Mets are up just 0.67 units on the season, thanks in large part to their -15.14-unit deficit away from Flushing.

New York faces a big road trip Thursday, crossing the country to play the Los Angeles Dodgers for three games before making their way to face the defending World Series winners, the San Francisco Giants, for three contests. The Mets could get caught looking ahead to the long haul to the left side of the country in Thursday’s finale with the Cubs. Last season, New York made a similar Western run – taking on Oakland and L.A. – and dropped the finale of a four-game home set against Chicago on 4-1 on August 8 before leaving town.

Tigers' Over streak has reached double-digits

The Detroit Tigers continue to reward Over bettors in a big way, as the club has gone above the closing total in 10-straight games ahead of Tuesday's meeting with the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Justin Verlander is the probable starter for the Tigers, while Gerrit Cole is slated to counter for the Bucs.

As of this writing, the total for the game was off the board.

The San Diego Padres, last season's top under team, is now the MLB's best over team at 47-29-2 over/under this season.

The Padres have done this by averaging 4.19 runs scored per game, while allowing 4.11 runs per game.

Here are the Top 5 over teams to this point in the season:

1. San Diego Padres: 47-29-2 O/U

2. Oakland A's: 44-28-6 O/U

3. Atlanta Braves: 43-29-4 O/U

4. Washington Nationals: 41-32-3 O/U

5. New York Yankees: 41-32-3 O/U

Starting pitching key to Yankees' success

The ebb and flow of the regular season are inevitable for most every team, and the New York Yankees are no different. In advance of their loss in the series finale against the Houston Astros on Sunday, manager Joe Girardi was asked to consider how well his club had played in consecutive wins over the first-place Astros following a home series loss to the lowly Phillies.

"It's hard to figure out," Girardi said. "As you watch the game, it's just completely unpredictable."

That statement applies to the Yankees, who followed a six-game losing skid last month with a three-game series sweep of the Royals. The Yankees swept the Tigers in Detroit in April but also lost 10 of 11 as part of the aforementioned six-game lull. The Yankees lost outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury to a knee injury last month but have kept pace on offense. Where they wobble occasionally is with starting pitching.

Right-hander Masahiro Tanaka has allowed three home runs in each of his last two starts. Righty Michael Pineda had scuffled recently before twirling his first career complete game on Sunday. Veteran left-hander CC Sabathia is in the throes of a prolonged struggle that has him searching for answers. The Yankees, with the return of right-hander Ivan Nova, have starting pitching depth, but they need superior efforts.

"Streaks start or wins start with your starting pitcher," Girardi said. "And if he has a rough outing, you can score a lot of runs and it may not be enough. And I think that's been the case sometimes. The one thing that we need to do is become more consistent. It starts with your starting pitching."

Cardinals not just the best team, also best under bet

Thanks to some superb pitching, the St. Louis Cardinals have steamrolled their opponents to sit at an MLB best 51-24 and that same pitching has made them the bigs best under bet at 27-45-3 over/under.

The Cardinals lead the majors in team ERA at a miniscule 2.61, while scoring a middle of the pack 4.12 runs per game. While not as pronounced as the Cards, it is a trend that can be found in the Top five under teams:

1. St. Louis Cardinals: 27-45-3 O/U

2. Tampa Bay Rays: 30-43-4 O/U

3. Seattle Mariners: 31-42-3 O/U

4. Chicago White Sox: 30-41-3 O/U

5. Baltimore Orioles: 32-40-3 O/U

Soccer: Think Cech signing puts Arsenal over the top?
By ANDREW AVERY

Former Chelsea keeper Petr Cech has made the switch to North London club Arsenal and one book in particular believes the move brings the Gunners closer to the Premier League crown.

An online shop has introduced some Petr Cech-related wagers to their menu with the keeper 2/1 to win the Premier League with the Gunners.

Ben Stones said: "Arsenal's failure to sign a world-class goalkeeper over the years has undoubtedly hindered their recent title challenges, but according to the odds, Cech's arrival could change all that".

Here is a look at what the book is offering.

Petr Cech to:

Start in the Community Shield - 1/3
Keep a clean sheet in the Community Shield - 9/4
Win the Golden Glove for Arsenal in 2015/16 - 9/2
Win the Premier League with Arsenal - 2/1
End his playing career at Arsenal - 5/1

Bombers open as 2-point home dogs in Week 2
Andrew Avery

The Westgate LV Superbook has opened lines for three of the four Week 2 games in the CFL.

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers, fresh off a 30-26 victory over the Saskatchewan Roughriders, have opened as 2-point home underdogs with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in town.

Elsewhere, the Ottawa RedBlacks, who won their season opener against the Montreal Alouettes have opened as 3-point home dogs with the BC Lions coming to Canada's capital. The aforementioned Roughriders have opened as 3-point home favorites as they host the Toronto Argonauts.

The line for Friday's matchup between the Calgary Stampeders and Montreal Alouettes remains off the board.

# 3 HOP ZIP 3/1


# 9 SOUTHWIND RAMBO 5/2


# 5 BACKDRAFT HANOVER 15/1


HOP ZIP looks really good to best this group of animals. This solid standardbred may have some hidden form, a victory would be a pleasant surprise. He has been racing admirably and the TrackMaster Speed Ratings are among the strongest in the field of starters. This horse recorded a good speed rating last time out. Looks sharp to come right back. SOUTHWIND RAMBO - Is a clear-cut choice given the 79 TrackMaster Speed Rating from his most recent race. Recent stats for the driver - 22 percent win - make this gelding a top pick in the field. BACKDRAFT HANOVER - Cannot put a finger on it, but give the nod to this gelding for a bet.
