EPL Best Odds
*Neal Maupay to Score* (+148) – 0.25 Units – “DraftKings Sportsbook”
The Betting Game Plan
Neal Maupay has the second highest goal scoring odds on the slate behind Patrick Bamford. However, if choosing between both at their respective odds, I would have to go with Maupay. He could not ask for a better matchup than with lowly West Brom.
