About Last Night
MLB Best Bets stay hot
It was another profitable day for our MLB handicapping team, headlined by our 3-star best bet winner on the Minnesota Twins. This brought our best bets run to 10-3 over our last 13 selections, and it was also our 3rd straight best bet winner over the last 4 days. Other notable results included a comeback win for the Red Sox over the Yankees, a win for the Giants over the Braves and the Mariners swept the Astros to pull closer in the AL West race.
Tennis bets keep rolling in Cincinnati
The Western & Southern Open concluded on Sunday in Cincinnati and our tennis expert Ricky Dimon was on the ball once again, as Coco Gauff captured the Women’s Singles title to cash his pre-tournament wager at +1600 odds! On the men’s side, fans were treated to an instant classic in the final, as Novak Djokovic knocked off Carlos Alcaraz in 3 scintillating sets to capture another Masters 1000 crown.

Best Bet of the Day
EPL: Arsenal ML over Crystal Palace (-160)
3:00 pm ET
Crystal Palace and Arsenal both enjoyed winning starts to the new Premier League campaign last weekend but the Gunners’ quality should shine through when the teams meet at Selhurst Park on Monday. Last season’s EPL runners-up looked in complete control after 2 first-half goals against Nottingham Forest in their opener. Eddie Nketiah, standing in for the injured Gabriel Jesus, showed his value with a fine opener, while Gabriel Martinelli and Bukayo Saka terrorized the Forest defense. With Arsenal winning the shot count 15-6 and having 78% of the ball, the scoreline could have been much worse for Forest. Check out our full Arsenal vs Crystal Palace predictions.
