7/8 EPL Slate
Wednesday, we continue the 34th of the 38 match weeks with a three game slate on DraftKings and a four game slate on FanDuel.
Manchester City is a huge favorite against Newcastle and should be the mother of all chalk on both sites.
EPL Best Bets
Newcastle (+2000) at Man City (-775) – Over 3.5 Goals (-105) – 1:00 PM ET – Wednesday 7/8 – *MAN CITY*
Liverpool (-175) at Brighton (+475) – Under 2.5 Goals (-120) – 3:15 PM ET – Wednesday 7/8 – *LIVERPOOL*
The Betting Game Plan
Manchester City is coming off an absolutely awful 1-0 loss against Southampton. However, this seems like the bounce back spot.
Liverpool has looked a little shaky as of late. In their 2-0 win over Aston Villa, they did not score until after the 70th minute or so. However, that is why we are getting the EPL Champions as -175 favorites against Brighton.

7/8 MKF Pick
After resting last game, Kevin De Bruyne should be back in the lineup and ready to handle business. As for the second piece of the parlay, Miguel Almiron has at least one SOG in five of his last six games, so might as well take the over on him grabbing one.
