Today’s Slate
Home teams favored
All 3 of today’s home teams are favored by at least 7 points in the NBA playoffs tonight, although while the Heat (vs Hawks) and Suns (vs Pelicans) are 1-0 up, the Grizzlies lost their opener to the Timberwolves. Read today’s NBA game previews.
16 games in MLB
We have an expanded 16-game MLB slate today after yesterday’s Giants-Mets game was postponed and made into a doubleheader today. After 2 seasons of playing 7-inning doubleheaders, this year’s rescheduled games are back to a full 9 innings. White Sox vs Guardians is being shown on ESPN+ at 6:10 pm ET. Check out today’s MLB game previews.
NHL gets busy again
There are 10 NHL games on the schedule today with Kings vs Ducks (10:00 pm ET) being shown on ESPN. Check out today’s NHL game previews.
Best Bet of the Day
Over 3.5 goals in Liverpool vs Manchester United
3:00 pm ET (USA Network)
The Manchester United defense struggled to keep Norwich quiet in a 3-2 weekend win, so their hopes of upsetting Liverpool at Anfield today look slim. The Reds roared into a 3-0 halftime lead over EPL rivals Manchester City in Saturday’s FA Cup semifinal at Wembley, holding out to win 3-2, and they are now bidding for an 11th straight home win in the Premier League. United may struggle to keep the scoreline respectable against a Reds team who won October’s meeting between the teams 5-0 at Old Trafford. Take over 3.5 goals in this game. Read our full game preview for Liverpool vs Manchester United.
