We have put together a 4-pick cross-sport parlay that will take you right through Wednesday, including action from the NBA, NHL, Europa League, and MLB. One pick is taken from each sport and a winning ticket would give us a nice payout with odds of +1331 at DraftKings. Let’s break down each of these plays.
Europa League: Eintracht Frankfurt ML (+135) vs Rangers, 3:00 pm ET
Eintracht Frankfurt is unbeaten in this competition this year, cruising through its group before beating Real Betis in the round of 16. The Bundesliga team beat European titans Barcelona at Camp Nou in the quarterfinals before eliminating EPL team West Ham.
Frankfurt’s Bundesliga form has been poor as this competition has been the priority, while Rangers has been involved in a tough battle with Celtic at the top of the Scottish Premiership, and also has the Scottish Cup final to play this Saturday. The number of games the Glasgow-based team has played may begin to catch up, and they don’t have their formidable home-field advantage at this neutral venue. Take the German team to triumph in regulation.

MLB: Cincinnati Reds vs Cleveland Guardians ML (-135), 6:10 pm ET
The Reds have been better than their 3-22 start, but they still have the worst record in baseball. There is too much respect being given to their starter Tyler Mahle. There’s no doubt he provides the most hope for the Reds franchise, but he still has yet to live up to it. He’s just 2-4 on the year with a 5.89 ERA and faced one of the weaker lineups in the Pirates in each of his last 2 starts. Now taking on a lineup led by Jose Ramirez, he could be in for a bit of regression in the series finale.
Cal Quantrill is no ace for the Guardians, but he’s been able to pitch at least 6 innings in each of his last 4 starts. With Cleveland also having the superior bullpen, that should pay dividends come Wednesday night.

NBA: Dallas Mavericks vs Golden State Warriors – Over 214.5 points (-110), 9:00 pm ET
The Mavs are coming off back-to-back performances of 113 and 123 points scored against the Suns, while the Warriors haven’t really impressed defensively in their run so far — allowing 110.2 per game. Luckily for them they are able to just outscore their opponents to get wins. In 11 games this postseason they are averaging the most points at 114.2 per game. All in all I’m expecting to see a high-scoring game on Wednesday, so let’s go with the over.

NHL: Edmonton Oilers vs Calgary Flames – Over 6 goals (-120), 9:30 pm ET
The Flames scored 3.66 goals per game in the regular season, which ranked 6th-best in the NHL and through 4 games against Edmonton they scored 17 total goals.
If they get to that average of just over 4 tonight this game should go over. The Oilers have to win games by scoring goals as their defense is not good. In their first-round series against the Kings the over hit 4 times and pushed once. Given the stats and trends of these teams, the total should really be 6.5 goals, so take over 6.
