⚽ Rosario Central vs River Plate - Liga Profesional Argentina Prediction & Picks

The 11th round of the Argentine Clausura brings a top-tier clash as Rosario Central host River Plate at the Gigante de Arroyito. Both teams sit near the top of the annual standings, fighting for Copa Libertadores qualification, and this matchup could decide who stays ahead.

Rosario Central remain the only undefeated side in the league, boasting 3 wins and 6 draws. They’ve turned the Gigante into a fortress, losing just once at home this season, though recent games have shown a trend of tight results — nine consecutive Under 2.5 home matches.

• Rosario Central: unbeaten in 9 Clausura matches.
• 9 straight home games Under 2.5.
• River: unbeaten in their last 7 (3W, 4D).
• 6 of River’s last 10 games finished Under 2.5.
• Di Maria has scored in 3 straight matches for Rosario.

Our Pick: ⚽ Under 2.5 Total Goals

⚾ Chicago Cubs vs Milwaukee Brewers - MLB Prediction & Picks

The Milwaukee Brewers will host the Chicago Cubs at American Family Field for Game 2 of their National League Divisional Series. Milwaukee dominated the opener 9–3, and everything points toward another home win for the Brew Crew.

The Brewers were the most profitable team in MLB this season (+20 units) and finished with the best record in baseball. Milwaukee’s offense exploded early in Game 1, with Jackson Chourio and Carson Durbin combining for five RBIs.

Meanwhile, Cubs starter Shota Imanaga (9–8, 3.73 ERA) enters in poor form, allowing 8 earned runs over 5.9 innings in his last start against the Mets. The Japanese lefty has already faced Milwaukee three times this year, conceding an average of 2.3 ER per game — the Brewers lineup knows him well.

Milwaukee will use Aaron Ashby (2.16 ERA) as an opener, followed by their elite bullpen that ranks among MLB’s best in ERA and WHIP.

Key Stats:

Brewers are 5–2 in their last 7 at home.
Cubs are 0–5 in their last 5 road games.
Milwaukee posted a 55–29 home record this season.
Cubs bullpen has a 4.10 ERA in the postseason.

Our Pick: Milwaukee Brewers.

The Brewers are too dominant at home and have the better bullpen. Imanaga has struggled recently, while Milwaukee’s bats are hot.

⚾ Toronto Blue Jays vs New York Yankees - MLB Prediction & Picks

The AL Divisional series between the Blue Jays and Yankees continues Monday at Yankee Stadium. Toronto holds a commanding 2–0 series lead after outscoring New York 23–3 over the first two games.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has been on fire with 2 home runs and 6 RBIs in the series, while Varsho and Kirk combined for 10 hits and 4 HRs. The Blue Jays have now won 10 of their last 12 meetings with New York and are playing their best baseball of the season, leading MLB in batting average, OPS, and wRC+ since the All-Star Break.

The Yankees turn to Carlos Rodon (3.78 FIP) to stop the bleeding. He’s allowed 3 earned runs or fewer in 11 straight starts but owns a 5.32 career ERA in the playoffs and a 5.40 ERA vs. Toronto this season. The Blue Jays’ lineup has seen him plenty — Guerrero Jr. is 10-for-17 lifetime against Rodon.

Toronto counters with Chris Bassitt and one of the league’s most consistent bullpens. The Yankees’ relievers, meanwhile, have posted a 9.00 ERA and 1.76 WHIP so far this postseason.

Key Stats:

Blue Jays have won their last 6 games by 2+ runs.
Yankees are 0–5 in their last 5 postseason home games.
Rodon has allowed 6 runs in 10 IP vs. Toronto this season.
Blue Jays are averaging 5.5 runs per game since the All-Star Break.

Our Pick: Over 6.5 Total Runs Toronto’s lineup is scorching, and the Yankees’ bullpen looks vulnerable. Expect another high-scoring game at Yankee Stadium.

Historically, Japan have dominated this rivalry, winning their last meeting 3–1 in March 2025 and remaining unbeaten in four previous encounters.

Japan have scored at least twice in each of their last 5 matches.
The last 4 meetings between these nations produced 16 total goals.
Both teams scored in all 4 previous head-to-heads.

Philadelphia Eagles vs New York Giants - NFL Prediction & Picks

Thursday Night Football brings us a fierce NFC East rivalry between the Philadelphia Eagles and the New York Giants, two teams heading in opposite directions.

The Eagles enter this matchup following a 21–17 loss to the Broncos but have still won 4 of their last 5 games. Their offense has been inconsistent, averaging just under 100 rushing yards per game, while QB Jalen Hurts has struggled in key moments.

For the Giants, rookie QB Jaxson Dart is making his third career start, and while he’s shown flashes, turnovers and offensive inconsistency have been major issues. The Giants have failed to score more than 14 points in three of their last five games.

Key Trends:

Giants are 0–11 in their last 11 games vs NFC teams.
Eagles are 5–0 to the Over in their last five Thursday road games.
The Under is 8–0 in the Giants’ last eight October home games.
Home underdogs of 7+ points in early-season division games cover 60% ATS since 2020.
Both teams enter looking to rebound after tough losses, but given the defensive fatigue and divisional intensity, this could turn into a higher-scoring game than expected.

Our Pick: Over 37.5 Total Points

✅ Expect both teams to find success moving the ball in a game that could exceed expectations under the MetLife lights.

⚽ CA Independiente vs Atletico Lanus – Argentine Liga Profesional Prediction & Picks

The Libertadores de America Stadium hosts a Group B match between two teams going in completely opposite directions: Independiente, the only winless team in the Clausura, and Lanus, one of the most consistent clubs in Argentina right now.

Independiente sit bottom of the table with 6 draws and 4 defeats. Under Gustavo Quinteros, they have shown minor improvements but still struggle to score and close out games.

Lanus, meanwhile, are flying high. Mauricio Pellegrino’s men are unbeaten in their last 6 matches (W4, D2) and just advanced to the Copa Sudamericana semifinals. They currently sit 3rd in Group B and have been exceptional away from home.

Key Stats:

• Independiente are winless in 10 league matches (6 D, 4 L).
• Lanus are unbeaten in 6 straight (4 W, 2 D).
• Lanus have won 4 of their last 5 visits to Independiente.
• Lanus have scored in 12 of their last 14 away games.

Given the form and historical trends, Lanus have the upper hand. Independiente’s struggles in front of goal make it likely the visitors will at least find the net.

Our Pick: Lanus to score at least one goal ✅

⚽ Mexico vs Ecuador - International Friendly Prediction & Betting Tips

Mexico will face Ecuador at the AT&T Stadium in Texas on Wednesday in an exciting international friendly ahead of the 2026 World Cup.

Mexico come into this match following a disappointing 4-0 loss to Colombia. Javier Aguirre’s men remain strong defensively, keeping five clean sheets in their last eight games, including both previous meetings with Ecuador.

Ecuador, under Sebastian Beccacece, are unbeaten in 12 straight matches since September 2024. They have kept clean sheets in 10 of those games and are one of the best defensive units in South America.

Key Stats:

Mexico have not conceded in their last two matches vs Ecuador.
Ecuador have kept clean sheets in 10 of their last 12 games.
Ecuador are unbeaten in their last 12 matches.
Mexico have scored only seven goals in their last seven matches.
This looks set to be a low-scoring contest between two well-organized sides.

My Pick: Under 2.5 Goals ✅

⚽ Atletico ** vs Cruzeiro - Brasileirao Serie A Prediction & Betting Tips

We’ve got another hot “Classico Mineiro” coming up this weekend as Atletico Mineiro host Cruzeiro at Arena MRV. Two teams heading in opposite directions but both needing points.

Atletico ** finally snapped a two-game winless run with a 3-1 win over Sport Recife last week. But honestly, they still don’t look that convincing in attack. They’ve only scored more than one goal once in their last five games at home.

Cruzeiro, meanwhile, are sitting comfortably near the top of the table, but their form has cooled off with three games without a win. They’re still a tough side to beat though — they’ve conceded just 20 goals all season and have looked rock solid on the road.

Key Stats:

Atletico ** have seen Under 2.5 goals in their last 3 home games.
Cruzeiro have gone Under 2.5 in 4 of their last 5 away.
Only 3 of the last 10 meetings between these teams saw 3+ goals.
This one looks like a tight, tactical battle. Don’t expect fireworks — both sides are likely to play it safe.

Pick: Under 2.5 Goals ✅
