  Alex Smart
9:50 AM   Carlos Prates vs Jack Della Maddalena  
MMA   05/02  
  Pick: Jack Della Maddalena -105
  This weekend's UFC Fight Night heads down under to the RAC Arena in Perth, Australia, where the main event pits local welterweight standout Jack Della Maddalena against Brazilian power puncher Carlos Prates in what shapes up as a classic striker's delight. With the card stacked and the crowd expected to be electric, there's real betting value hiding in plain sight, especially if you're willing to back the home fighter as a slight underdog or fav around even money or better. From where I'm sitting, Della Maddalena at plus territory stands out as the smartest play on the entire slate, blending historical trends, venue-specific angles, and the kind of intangibles that often tilt close fights in the Octagon.
Let's start with the big-picture numbers that smart bettors live by. Underdogs in UFC bouts have historically cashed at roughly a 32-33 percent clip across thousands of fights, a rate that's held steady even as the sport has grown more competitive. In recent seasons, that figure has ticked up in certain spots, particularly when the lines get tight and public money piles onto the favorite. Main events, in particular, have seen dogs outperform expectations more often than casual fans realize, think of those nights when experience and motivation trump raw hype. Throw in the home-country factor, and the math gets even more intriguing: fighters competing in front of their own fans have posted win rates north of 55 percent in many international markets, with Australian cards showing that same home-cookin' edge thanks to massive crowd support. It's not foolproof, of course, MMA is still one punch away from chaos, but it creates spots where plus-money dogs carry more edge than the odds imply.
Della Maddalena embodies exactly that kind of value( line has moved as harp money pours in). The Aussie is coming off a tough title run but enters this matchup with a proven track record of outworking opponents over the distance, solid striking defense, and the kind of cardio that wears down aggressive finishers. Prates, on the other side, is a legitimate threat with knockout power in five of his six UFC victories, making him the trendy pick for anyone chasing highlight-reel finishes. Yet history shows that heavy favorites in welterweight main events, especially those relying on one-punch power, can struggle when the fight stays competitive and the crowd turns the arena into a pressure cooker. Betting on Prates here feels like fading the roar of several thousand fans who showed up specifically to will their guy to victory. In a sport where momentum shifts on a single takedown defense or body shot, that home energy isn't just noise; it's often worth a half-round swing on the judges' cards.
Add in the rebound angle for Della Maddalena, and the case gets stronger. Fighters returning from a high-profile setback frequently come in sharper and more focused, especially when fighting in familiar surroundings. We've seen it play out repeatedly in recent years: experienced veterans or former title challengers bounce back with gritty, high-output performances that grind out decisions or late stoppages. Prates is dangerous early, no question, but Della Maddalena's ability to mix levels, control range, and pile up volume over 25 minutes plays right into the trends that have made near-pick'em dogs profitable in main events. It's the type of spot where the implied probability baked into those plus odds (around 48-50 percent) underestimates the real likelihood when you factor in the venue, the fighter's experience, and the simple fact that welterweight scraps like this rarely end in the first round when both guys are durable.
For those hunting a secondary underdog with similar vibes, Tim Elliott at plus money against Steve Erceg offers another layer of veteran savvy in a flyweight scrap that could go the distance. But the main-event dog in Perth is the one with the cleanest edge and the loudest crowd backing it. In a card full of intriguing matchups, this feels like the spot where the numbers, the narrative, and the atmosphere all line up in one direction.
As always, shop around for the best number, use proper bankroll management , and remember that even the sharpest trends can get derailed by a perfectly timed knee or a referee's split-second call. That's the beautiful madness of MMA. If you're tuning in Saturday night (or early Sunday morning depending on your time zone), Della Maddalena at plus money or slight fav feels less like a gamble and more like catching the house sleeping on the home hero.
(Sharp money has moved this line, but it is still a very viable betting option)
  Brian Bitler
7:30 PM   Cleveland Cavaliers vs Toronto Raptors  
NBA   05/01  
  Pick: Toronto Raptors 4
  For my best free pick on the board here for Friday I am looking at NBA playoff basketball and the Toronto Raptors and the Cleveland Cavaliers. Toronto a chance to even up the series here on Friday Night at home and thats just what I think they will do. Toronto had game 5 but blew it but this Cavs team has been burning bettors money and I think they continue to light it on fire here on Friday night. 
 
Play on the Toronto Raptors plus the points rotation #522

  Marc David
9:38 PM   New York Mets vs Los Angeles Angels  
MLB   05/01  
  Pick: Under 9
  Marc David Sports' Free Pick
We really like the under in this matchup. The Mets' offense has been stagnant, ranking 25th in runs scored over the last two weeks and the Angels' offense has struggled significantly, ranking 29th in hits (7.44 per game). With both teams trending toward the Under in nearly 80% of their recent samples, we find the under to be a high-confidence play.
This is a FREE PLAY on the UNDER!

6:45 PM   Cincinnati Reds vs Pittsburgh Pirates  
MLB   05/01  
  Pick: Cincinnati Reds 115
  Reds vs Pirates MLB Free Pick
The Angle: The Cincinnati Reds send Brady Singer (2-1, 4.97 ERA) to the mound, who's been a betting darling this season. The Reds are 5-1 in his six starts and a 3-1 (75%) straight up when he's the moneyline dog. The Pirates are 1-1 in Mitch Keller's (2-1, 3.18 ERA) starts as a favorite, and they come into this game mired in a five-game slump. Gimme the dog. 
The Bet: REDS (3%).
