We’ve put together a four-pick cross-sport parlay that will take you right through Saturday, including action from the UFC, Copa America Final, CONCACAF Gold Cup and the MLB.

One pick is taken from each competition, with two soccer picks, and a winning ticket gives us a nice payout with odds at +1157 with BetMGM — that’s more than 11/1! Let’s break down each of these four plays. Remember to gamble responsibly.

Best MLB pick: Pittsburgh Pirates vs. New York Mets Game 1 ML (-200) 4:10pm ET

Marcus Stroman has been one of the Mets’ three aces, the main reason the team will spend the break in first place. He’s pitched to a 2.60 ERA, and because the Mets’ offense has come alive in recent days, we like them to win Game 1.

Best Copa America Final pick: Argentina to lift the trophy (+135) vs. Brazil, 8pm ET

Brazil talisman Neymar insisted earlier this week that he wanted Argentina to reach the 2021 Copa America final but he may come to regret his words because the Albiceleste look great odds to beat the Samba Stars at the Maracana. His confidence may have been misplaced because Argentina is a tough, talented team on a 19-game unbeaten streak which included a 1-0 exhibition victory over Brazil in Riyadh in November 2019.

Best CONCACAF Gold Cup pick: Mexico vs. Trinidad & Tobago – Hirving Lozano anytime goalscorer (+105), 10pm ET

Mexico is in great form heading into the weekend with back-to-back clean sheets in fixtures against Panama and Nigeria. El Tri was able to hold both teams to just four shots total, while neither Panama nor Nigeria was able to register a shot on target.

Hirving Lozano was able to score 11 times for Napoli this season in more of a secondary role. With Lozano being the primary offensive threat while taking the majority of the strikes and Mexico’s expected dominance on the ball, we expect him to find the back of the net.

UFC pick: Dustin Poirier ML (-135) vs. Conor McGregor, midnight ET

Dustin Poirier showed plenty in his last fight with Conor McGregor and as a result, we like him to win again. Betting against McGregor is always scary, but Poirier has proved he is a world-class fighter and we believe his balanced style will help him take this fight.
