Free moneyline picks
A moneyline pick is simply wagering on who will win a game - no point spreads involved. Odds show favorites with a minus (‑) and underdogs with a plus (+).
Imagine the Knicks are favorites and the Nets are underdogs:
| Team | Moneyline Odds |
|---|---|
| Knicks | –250 |
| Nets | +400 |
- $100 on Knicks (‑250) → Profit = $100 × (100 / 250) = $40 (total payout $140)
- $100 on Nets (+400) → Profit = $100 × 4 = $400 (total payout $500)
Free Over/Under picks
Over/Under betting doesn’t care who wins the game, just how many points, runs, or goals are scored, or how long a fight lasts.
- Book sets a line → i.e., Over/Under 54.5 for a football game
- You choose:
- Over 54.5
- Under 54.5
- Odds are usually around –110, meaning you bet $110 to win $100 (and your $110 stake returns $210 total)
- If the final score is:
- 56–22 (total 78) → Over wins
- 24–20 (total 44) → Under wins
- Pushes are avoided thanks to the half-point; i.e., 54.5 guarantees Over or Under wins
- If the total is set at 54 and that’s the exact final score, all bets on either side will be refunded (voided) as a tie
Free spread picks
Our expert picks typically focus on picks against the spread as one of the most popular bets in any team sport. Run lines and puck lines are used in baseball and hockey, respectively, but refer to the same thing.
- The favorite is shown with a minus (–) and must win by more than the spread to cover
- The underdog has a plus (+) and must either win outright or lose by fewer points than the spread
- Spreads often include a .5 (i.e., 3.5) to avoid a tie or “push.” If the final margin equals the exact spread, bets are refunded as a tie
Free prop picks
Prop picks allow bettors to target specific players, teams, or game events. Player prop odds vary based on probability - i.e., a prop might offer –110 odds (bet $110 to win $100) for a likely result or +250 (bet $100 to win $250) for less likely ones. Prop markets often present value opportunities, especially when sportsbooks pay less attention to niche events compared to main markets, and there are typically far more prop bets to choose from in any given game.
How we make our picks & predictions
Our No. 1 focus at Sportsbook Review is always on price shopping, and finding you the best betting line and odds for each pick. Why should you pay more (bet shorter odds) when you can fetch a greater profit at a different sportsbook all while needing the exact same outcome on your bet?
This is the most important part of the process for any game picks, player props, and futures bets. To be a winning bettor over the long term, you simply can’t be leaving money on the table by betting shorter odds when better numbers are out there.
However, this step typically follows our experts' analysis of matchups using advanced statistics, as well as player and team performance, to determine their best bets in any given betting market. Certain matchups favor certain players or positions, and we always look to who’s best equipped for success in those matchups when starting our game picks and player props.
We caution against putting too much emphasis on injuries, weather, or any narrative or news-based factor. The sportsbooks are almost always ahead of this when it comes to setting and adjusting their lines. Bettors don’t have an edge just because Patrick Mahomes won’t be playing against the Broncos on Sunday. That’s already been baked into the lines.
It’s important to balance betting on favorites, underdogs, and long shots. Favorites come with shorter odds for a reason, but they don’t always win. It’s equally important to know that longer odds represent a lower probability of a winning bet. Diversify your betting portfolio, manage your bankroll, and track your results.
Why trust our experts?
Sportsbook Review has been around for more than 20 years, and is a trusted source of betting picks as well as honest reviews of our best sports betting sites.
We carefully match our betting experts to the sports and topics they’re most passionate about to recommend picks they’re betting themselves. Our 1-to-5-star confidence rating is based on the matchup, their research, and the implied probability of the odds. It’s rare to see a 5-star pick on home run and touchdown predictions, as well as futures bets, due to the inherent nature of those betting markets and the lower implied probability of the longer odds.
