EPL Best Odds

*Jesse Lingard to Score* (+425) – 0.15 Units – “DraftKings Sportsbook”

The Betting Game Plan

You never want to drop the entire bankroll on Jesse Lingard, that is for sure. However, his West Ham debut could not have gone better with two goals. He had not played at all recently at Manchester United, but at only 28, there is certainly a lot of gas in the tank. Now that his mind is free and he is getting playing time, there may be more goals to come. Lingard is a strong candidate to resurrect his career.
