World Cup

2:45pm ET

Italy v Sweden

Last Head-to-Heads In Italy:
1-0 (Italy win)
1-0 (Italy win)
1-1
2-1 (Italy win)

Recent Form:
Italy: 3-2-1
Sweden: 3-2-1

KEY STAT: Italy have failed to qualify for only one World Cup in the history of the tournament

EXPERT VERDICT: Italy last missed out on the World Cup in 1958 but they face the very real prospect of watching next year's finals on the beach after a poor 1-0 loss away to Sweden. The lack of away goal makes the return in Milan a tricky affair and the Azzurri look too short in the betting to win so it may be better to back both teams to score with Sweden capable of stunning San Siro.

RECOMMENDATION: Both Teams To Score (2)

# 3 STORMY MAMA 5/1

# 2 MONEY GAME 9/2

# 6 MISS SWISHER 5/1

I've got to go with STORMY MAMA. With a strong jockey who has won at a strong 16 percent clip over the last month. This has to be one of the top selections. Don't overlook this mare in your wagers - very dangerous with Torres aboard. The big drop in class can only aid this horse this time around. MONEY GAME - Is hard not to consider given the company run in lately. Bettors should take a good look at this one as this mare has one of the best win percentages at this distance in this group. MISS SWISHER - With a solid 65 speed figure last time out, will definitely be a factor in this contest. Displays the look of a money-making play, averaging a solid 66 speed rating which is one of the most respectable in this group.

Mountaineer Park - Race #4 - Post: 8:06pm - Maiden Claiming - 5.0 furlongs on the Dirt. Purse: $6,100 Class Rating: 48

Rating: 4

#5 I HEART ROMANCE (ML=3/1)


I HEART ROMANCE - Mare had the second fastest workout of the day prepping for this. The October 17th race at Indiana Downs was at a class level of (58). Dropping down in class ranks a significant amount, so she should be in a good position to win. This mare should be in tip-top shape, this far into her form cycle.

Vulnerable Contenders: #3 FAMILLE TROIS (ML=2/1), #6 AVOIR LA VEDETTE (ML=9/2), #2 CALIMONCO'S HEART (ML=6/1),

FAMILLE TROIS - Didn't finish in the money on October 9th at Mountaineer Park. Followed it up with another lackluster try. AVOIR LA VEDETTE - Doesn't look inspiring to me after the lack of any sort of closing response on October 15th. CALIMONCO'S HEART - This filly hasn't had any recent accomplishments in short distance contests. Tough to wager on her in this race.



STRAIGHT WAGERS:
Put your money on #5 I HEART ROMANCE on the nose if you can get odds of 1/1 or more

Parx Racing - Race #4 - Post: 1:46pm - Claiming - 6.0 furlongs on the Dirt. Purse: $21,500 Class Rating: 77

Rating: 4

#7 MIDDAY PRAYER (ML=8/1)
#5 HAIL TO ROCKNROLL (ML=20/1)
#8 CRAZY DAISY (ML=5/1)
#9 VOUCH FOR KITTEN (ML=15/1)


MIDDAY PRAYER - The recent bullet 36.4 work should put this filly on track for today's contest. Ran in the last race against a much better field at Parx Racing. The move to a lower class rank should suit her well. This filly is tops in earnings per start. Take a long look at this one before the race. HAIL TO ROCKNROLL - Generally accepted handicapping angle - 3rd or 4th start after a vacation generally leads to a big effort. Going to run a nice one here. Don't often see a profitable ROI like +373. This jockey/handler twosome has done well together over the last twelve months. You probably want to discount that last contest at Parx Racing on a track listed as good where she finished out of the money. Should do well in this event on a fast track. CRAZY DAISY - She must like the track here. Shipped in to take the top prize on October 17th and she looks tough once again. A thoroughbred coming back this rapidly after a sharp race is a good sign. Horse has improved at least two Equibase speed figure points in last two races. I look for that trend to continue in today's race. VOUCH FOR KITTEN - A little change in scenery has got to do this one well. Reading the recent past performance lines, it seems like she likes to visit the winner's circle on different tracks. This mare gets a weight break of -9 pounds from last race. This certainly could make the difference right here in this race.

Vulnerable Contenders: #6 LEAPT (ML=2/1), #3 MISS KALEM (ML=4/1), #4 MOON SHOCK (ML=6/1),

LEAPT - Oct 18th is the last time we've seen this filly around. Have to be a little bit leery. Pace is so important, and this early speedball is going to have a speed duel on her hands. MISS KALEM - I can't play this repeated non-winner. Gets the assignment fulfilled from time to time. If today's clash shapes up right, all the speedballs will force a severe pace duel early. Too bad this horse is one of those front runners. This filly garnered a fig in her last affair which probably isn't good enough in today's race. MOON SHOCK - Even though victorious in last, didn't finish the way you'd like to see when stepping up to face stronger opponents.

#7 MIDDAY PRAYER is going to be the play if we are getting 7/2 or better

# 6 MYSTORYNMSTIKNTOIT 3/1

# 2 BLACKFORD 6/1

# 4 CALLINGAHARDTEN 7/2

I think MYSTORYNMSTIKNTOIT is a solid choice. Win percentage under similar conditions may be the key for this gelding. The Equibase Speed Figure of 88 from his most recent contest looks competitive in here. Looks very good for the conditions of this contest today, showing solid figures in turf route races as of late. BLACKFORD - Has been racing admirably and has among the most competitive speed in the race for today's distance. CALLINGAHARDTEN - Ran a strong last race.

Kings face Wizards in DC

John Wall and De'Aaron Fox, perhaps the league's two fastest players, square off on Monday.

As is the case every year, Kings fans in 2017 are stuck watching for signs of development from their young players more so than they are rooting for wins. Of course, there is occasionally great reward to be found in doing this. Take, for example, Thursday night, when rookie PG De'Aaron Fox hit a jumper with 13 seconds left to give the Kings their second straight victory—these are the moments Sacramento fans are living for right now. After a seven-game losing streak, the two consecutive victories are a welcome reward. Fox, the NBA's newest speedster, will take on blazing veteran PG John Wall and the Wizards on Monday night in D.C. Despite being one of the most talented teams in the Eastern Conference—perhaps even the most talented, as the Cavs languish without Isaiah Thomas—Washington has been unable to separate itself from the pack in the early going.
There's no real No. 1 option in Sacramento. Entering the weekend, no King was averaging 30 minutes per game nor 14 points per game. Most interesting in Sactown is the point guard position, for reasons both good and bad. On the good side of that equation is Fox, who has looked promising in the early going. Essentially all areas of his game need refinement: His decision-making and his jump-shooting, in particular. But the talent and effort is there, and his leadership figures to bring about a culture shift in the locker room. Now the bad side: PG George Hill, who signed a three-year, $57 million deal in the offseason, has been horrendous. After averaging a career-high 16.9 PPG as a member of the Jazz last season, Hill is in the single-digits this year for scoring. Two lowlights in particular came this past week, when he scored one point in 24 minutes against the Thunder, and two points in 19 minutes against the 76ers. He's taking shots infrequently, and shooting poorly when he does. He opened the season with scoring outings of 16 and 21 points; hopefully he can get his confidence back and hit that level again. PF Zach Randolph is back in a starting lineup after coming off the bench in Memphis last year, and he's the team's leading scorer in Sacramento. SG Buddy Hield, ostensibly a sharpshooter, has been merely average from the outside thus far in his second year. C Willie Cauley-Stein is one of the few regular members of the rotation with a PER above 15.0.

As a product of Lonzo-mania, the Wizards have gotten their most headlines this season in the two games that they've played the Los Angeles Lakers. After plenty of trash talk, they embarrassed themselves with a loss in the first one. In the rematch on Thursday night, though, they got their revenge with a 111-95 win. PG John Wall was electric, putting up 23 points, eight rebounds, five assists, two steals and three highlight blocks. A left-handed dunk on Lakers center Brook Lopez set the tone in the first quarter. The box score numbers from the Wizards' starting lineup looked pretty much what the team would ideally want in that game: SG Bradley Beal had 22 points and SF Otto Porter had 20 to go with Wall's 23. Beal and Porter each got big contracts within the last two seasons to be Washington's second and third options, respectively, and each is living up to his role. And after missing the start of the year due to legal issues, PF Markieff Morris had the best outing yet of his first four games: 16 points and five rebounds in only 17 minutes. His return his huge for a team with a notoriously shallow bench. SG Kelly Oubre Jr. was beginning to breakout as a shooter in the starting lineup, but has had more trouble when forced to find his own shot with the second unit. He shot a combined 4-of-19 against Dallas and the Lakers this past week. C Marcin Gortat looks to be the same solid interior presence he has been in Washington for years now

Monday's Tip Sheet

Game of the Night: Magic at Warriors

A battle of division leaders takes place at Oracle Arena although only one of these teams were predicted to be atop their division at this point. We know what Golden State (10-3 SU, 7-6 ATS) is all about and its credentials, but Orlando (8-5, 7-6 ATS) is playing well through the first month and hope to keep it up on this road trip.

The Magic disappeared on Saturday in a 125-107 setback at Denver as nine-point underdogs, snapping a short two-game winning streak. Frank Vogel’s team began the season with an impressive 6-2 record, including underdog victories over Cleveland, San Antonio, and Memphis. However, Orlando is 2-3 the last five games, including ugly home double-digit losses to Chicago and Boston. The Magic rank fifth in the NBA in points per game at 110.5, while owning the best three-point defense by limiting opponents to 31.5% shooting per contest.

The Warriors are rolling right now by winning and covering six consecutive games, with all six victories coming by 17 points or more. The most recent triumph came over upstart Philadelphia on Saturday, 135-114 as 13½-point favorites, led by Kevin Durant’s 29 points as the defending champions shot 58.5% from the floor.

Since 2013, the Warriors have captured eight straight meetings with the Magic, while covering both times last season as hefty 14-point favorites.

Stumbling Home

The Clippers (5-7 SU, 5-7 ATS) have dropped seven of eight games since a 4-0 start to the season, capped off by an 0-3 road trip at San Antonio, Oklahoma City, and New Orleans. Los Angeles hosts Philadelphia tonight, as the 76ers (6-6 SU, 8-4 ATS) look to snap a two-game skid on their five-game road swing. Philadelphia was riding a five-game winning streak prior to back-to-back defeats at Sacramento and Golden State, while eclipsing the OVER in six of the past seven contests.

Returning to Staples Center isn’t exactly the formula for a win for Doc Rivers’ squad, who lost four of five on its most recent homestand. The defense was torched on this three-game road swing, allowing at least 111 points in each defeat, while not covering in a loss yet this season. The Clippers have defeated the 76ers five straight times at home, but this is the shortest spread since 2011, when Philadelphia knocked off L.A., 104-94.

Hitting their Stride

The Nuggets (8-5 SU, 5-8 ATS) had their expectations raised in the offseason following the pick-up of free agent forward Paul Millsap, but Denver started 1-3. Denver has rebounded lately by winning seven of nine games, including a 5-1 mark on its most recent homestand with the lone loss coming to Golden State. Mike Malone’s team travels to Portland before taking three days off prior to a home game with New Orleans on Friday.

The Blazers (6-6 SU, 4-7-1 ATS) look to snap a two-game skid after dropping a pair of close home decisions to the Grizzlies and Nets by a combined four points. Portland is on the worst ATS run in the league right now at 1-7 ATS following a 3-0-1 ATS start to the season. Last season, the Blazers grabbed three of four meetings from the Nuggets, including both matchups at the Moda Center as Portland has beaten Denver eight straight times at home.

Sounds of Silence

The Jazz (6-7 SU, 7-6 ATS) snapped a four-game skid in Saturday’s 114-107 home victory over the Nets as six-point favorites. However, center Rudy Gobert will be sidelined for four weeks after suffering a bone bruise in his right knee against Miami last Friday. Utah hosts Minnesota to close out a four-game homestand before the Jazz venture out east for a four-game road trip starting Wednesday in New York.

The Wolves (7-5 SU, 5-6-1 ATS) knocked off the Jazz in the first meeting this season at Target Center on October 20 by a 100-97 count, but Utah cashed as 4½-point underdogs. Minnesota is winless on its current three-game road swing following losses at Golden State and Phoenix, as the Wolves were tripped up by the Suns as 10-point favorites on Saturday, 118-110.

Broadway LeBron

The Cavaliers (6-7 SU, 4-8-1 ATS) are looking to reach the .500 mark for the first time since sitting at 3-3 on October 28. Cleveland travels to New York trying to avenge a 114-95 home setback to the Knicks as 10½-point favorites October 29. Since LeBron James returned to the Cavaliers in 2014, Cleveland owns a perfect 6-0 record at Madison Square Garden, including covers in each of the past three visits to New York.

The Knicks (7-5 SU, 7-5 ATS) have taken care of their home business this season with a 6-2 record at the Garden, while scoring at least 108 points in each of their past four home victories. Since starting the campaign at 0-3 SU/ATS, New York has covered seven of its previous nine games, while snapping a nine-game skid to Cleveland in the victory at Quicken Loans Arena last month.

Head-to-Head Matchups

Sacramento has dropped six straight road games as the Kings continue their three-game road swing at Washington. The Wizards wasted the Kings in their last matchup on October 29 as 7½-point favorites, 110-83. Washington has won four consecutive home meetings with Sacramento since 2014.

The home team has captured the last six matchups between the Bucks and Grizzlies, who meet in Milwaukee tonight. The Bucks have limited the Grizzlies to 96 points or less in their past four home meetings with Memphis. The Grizzlies finish off a five-game road trip following Saturday’s loss at Houston, while the Bucks are seeking their third straight win.

The road squad won the two meetings between the Hawks and Pelicans last season, as Atlanta heads to the Big Easy. The Hawks are riding a three-game skid, while allowing at least 110 points in seven consecutive contests. New Orleans has won four of its past five, while covering each time during this stretch.

The Lakers outlasted the Suns, 132-130 last month in Phoenix as the two Pacific division rivals hook up again in the Valley. Los Angeles has dropped the first three contests of a four-game away swing, while scoring 96 points or less each time. The previous six meetings between the Lakers and Suns have sailed OVER the total, while Phoenix is 4-2 in the last six home matchups with Los Angeles.

NBA Pick 'n' Roll: Monday's Picks and Analysis

Philadelphia 76ers at Los Angeles Clippers (-2, 218.5)

Things went south for the Clippers faster than Michael Douglas in Basic Instinct. Los Angeles started the post Chris Paul era off by winning and covering in each of its first four games, but a series of injuries to the backcourt is torpedoing the club.

Point guard Patrick Beverly is out with a banged up right knee and his backup Milos Teodosic is out long-term with plantar fascia. The Clippers have been forced to get creative with their guard rotation with Beverly and Teodosic out of the picture. Austin Rivers and Sindarius Thornwell – a rookie second round pick – are starting with Lou Williams coming off the bench playing starter minutes.

Saturday’s loss to the New Orleans Pelicans was the Clippers’ fifth straight defeat and frustrations boiled over with Austin Rivers and coaches Sam Cassell and Doc Rivers all picking up technical fouls in the second half.

Pick: 76ers +2

Cleveland Cavaliers at New York Knicks (+5, 218.5)

One of the many things to love about LeBron James is that he holds grudges. About a year ago James let it be known he was not happy about a comment Phil Jackson made his inner circle. Jackson used the term “posse” when referring to James’ entourage – a term LBJ thought was coded language.

Flash forward to Saturday night. The Cavs beat the Mavericks in Dallas and after the game James was asked about Mavs rookie point guard Dennis Smith Jr.

“The Knicks passed on a really good one, and Dallas got the diamond in the rough,” James told reporters. “[Smith] should be a Knick.”

The Knicks, of course, took French point guard Frank Ntilikina with the eighth pick and Dallas took Smith Jr. with the ninth pick. Ntilikina was the last big roster decision made by Jackson before he and the Knicks parted ways.

Smith is enjoying a strong start to his first season while Ntilikina is looking pretty good in a more limited role with New York. Knicks big man Enes Kanter took to Twitter in response to LeBron’s comment:

We expect New York to respond on the court as well.

Pick: Knicks +5

Yesterday’s picks: 0-2
Season record: 24-28

Total Streaks

*The under is 4-0 in the Wizards’ last four games overall.
*The over is 6-1 in Atlanta’s last seven games.
*The under is 5-0 in Minnesota’s last five games.
*The over is 6-1 in the 76ers’ last seven games.
*The over is 6-0 in the last six meetings between the Lakers and Suns.

Injury to Watch

Golden Start point guard Steph Curry is questionable to play Monday night against the Orland Magic because of a thigh contusion. The Warriors are still 13-point favorites. The Dubs went 2-1 straight up and 1-2 against the spread without the two-time MVP in the lineup last season.

Trends

*The Kings are 0-5-1 ATS in their last six road games.
*The Pelicans are 5-0 ATS in their last five games overall.
*The Blazers’ are 1-7 ATS in their last eight games overall.
*The Warriors are 6-0 ATS in their last six games.
*The Clippers are 0-5 ATS in their last five games overall.

Ref to Watch

The 76ers are 0-10 straight up and 2-8 against the spread in the last 10 games worked by NBA ref Zach Zarba. He’s the head official in tonight’s crew working the 76ers-Clippers game.

Consensus

Close to 75 percent of players like the Portland Trail Blazers to cover as 1-point home underdogs tonight against the Denver Nuggets

NBA Situational Betting

Atlanta Hawks at New Orleans Pelicans – By the time the Hawks play this game, they will have played nine road games and just four home games. Some home cooking would be nice for one of the worst teams in the NBA. With this last game of yet another challenging road trip, it looks like Pelicans or nothing. This is a little bit of a sandwich spot for the Pelicans with better competition in the Clippers and Raptors before and after, but this is a good spot to put a beating on somebody and the Pelicans have two star players capable of doing just that. Lay the big number without fear.

Cleveland Cavaliers at New York Knicks – Let’s look at how this season is going for the Cavaliers. They are only 5-7, but have beaten the Bucks twice, the Wizards, the Celtics, and the Bulls. They lost, but covered against the Rockets. They’ve lost to the Hawks, Knicks, Pelicans, Nets, and Magic. They play when they want to play. More often than not, they haven’t wanted to play. LeBron wants to put on a show in NYC. It’s just in his nature. He should. Derrick Rose has a return to New York that he should be amped up about. It’s Cavs or nothing here, even with the built-in bias in their lines.

Philadelphia 76ers at Los Angeles Clippers – This is a tricky spot for both teams. The 76ers have a day off before and after in Los Angeles, with the Lakers coming up on Wednesday, and players can get themselves in a little bit of trouble in Hollywood with some downtime. The Sixers are also on a pretty sizable road trip, so they have some fatigue concerns. The Clippers, however, return home from a trip of their own, and then have three days off before hitting the road from November 17 to November 27. The Sixers are in the midst of a culture change and may be all business here, but this does come after a game against Golden State, which is never an easy spot for a team.

Orlando Magic at Golden State Warriors – The Magic have regressed already from their hot shooting start to the season. The Warriors are coasting through the regular season by going through the motions without a whole lot of concern for how the standings look. Kevin Durant is dealing with a couple minor things and the team just hasn’t quite hit that stride. Maybe this is a spot where they roll somebody as a big favorite. The Magic are having one of those long Western Conference road trips. The Warriors hit the road for four straight a couple days after this game, so they don’t have any look-ahead or letdowns. This looks like a pretty standard case of rested home team blows out tired road team

Monday Night Football Betting Preview: Dolphins at Panthers

Miami Dolphins at Carolina Panthers (-9, 38)

The Carolina Panthers are nipping at the heels of first place in the NFC South due in large part to their top-ranked defense, which has yielded an NFL-low 274.1 yards per game while their 29 sacks are second-best in the league. The Panthers look to continue their dominance on Monday night when they host the Miami Dolphins, who average an NFL-worst 14.5 points per game.

"How well can we protect? That's where it starts and it filters down after that," Miami coach Adam Gase said of his team's daunting task against Luke Kuechly (team-best 65 tackles), Julius Peppers (club-high 7.5 sacks) and company. "It's a huge puzzle and you're trying to put it together. ... We just have to find a way to clean a few things up. I feel like we're close." Given time, Dolphins quarterback Jay Cutler completed a career-high 81 percent of his passes (34 of 42, 311 yards) in Sunday's 27-24 loss to Oakland. While the Dolphins have dropped two straight to even their record, the Panthers have answered a two-game skid with two wins of their own to remain a half-game behind streaking New Orleans in the NFC South. "A prime-time game and peaking right when we're supposed to be. Come Monday night, everybody come ready to rock and roll," said Carolina's Cam Newton, who has thrown for 11 touchdowns and rushed for two more in five Monday night appearances.

LINE HISTORY: The Panthers opened as 7.5-point home favorites and steady action on the home side has bumped that number up to -9 heading into game day. The total hit betting boards at 39.5 and has been reduced to 38.

WHAT SHARPS SAY: "This is one of the lowest NFL Over/Under totals this season, but for good reason as both offenses have struggled. Miami has averaged just 14.5 points per game on 4.5 yards per play (versus opponents that allow 21.6 ppg on 5.4 yppl). Carolina has averaged only 18.7 points per game on 5.0 yards per play (versus opponents that allow 22.0 ppg on 5.7 yppl)." - Steve Merril.

POWER RANKINGS: Dolphins (2.5) - Panthers (-1.5) + home field (-3) = Panthers -7.

INJURY REPORT:

Dolphins -
RB Damien Williams (Probable, Illness), C Ted Larsen (Probable, Bicep), DT Ndamukong Suh (Probable, Knee), CB Bobby McCain (Questionable, Hamstring), LB Mike Hull (Questionable, Shoulder), S Michael Thomas (Questionable, Knee), WR Jakeem Grant (Questionable, Illness), WR Rashawn Scott (Questionable, Foot), T Ja'Wuan James (I-R, Hamstring), S Nate Allen (Out, Calf), C Anthony Steen (Out, Foot), T Eric Smith (Out, Knee), LB Raekwon McMillan (I-R, Knee), CB Tony Lippett (I-R, Achilles), WR Isaiah Ford (I-R, Knee), QB Ryan Tannehill (I-R, Knee), LB Lamin Barrow (I-R, Foot), LB Koa Misi (I-R, Neck).

Panthers - WR Curtis Samuel (Probable, Ankle), QB Cam Newton (Questionable, Shoulder), RB Fozzy Whittaker (Questionable, Ankle), T John Theus (Questionable, Concussion), DE Bryan Cox Jr. (Questionable, Hip), S Mike Adams (Questionable, Shoulder), TE Chris Manhertz (Questionable, Concussion), C Ryan Kalil (Out, Neck), CB Cole Luke (Questionable, Ankle), CB Corn Elder (I-R, Knee), S Demetrious Cox (Out, Ankle), TE Greg Olsen (Out, Foot), DE Daeshon Hall (Out, Knee), WR Damiere Byrd (Out, Forearm), T Dan France (I-R, Concussion), CB Teddy Williams (I-R, Arm), DT Drew Iddings (I-R, Shoulder), WR Charles Johnson (I-R, Back).

ABOUT THE DOLPHINS (4-4 SU, 3-3-2 ATS, 3-5 O/U):Miami's beleaguered ground attack took a step forward in the wake of the team trading Pro Bowl selection Jay Ajayi to Philadelphia, as Kenyan Drake amassed 104 yards from scrimmage versus Oakland while fellow running back Damien Williams had a touchdown reception. Wideout Jarvis Landry, who also found the end zone against the Raiders, is second in the NFL with 56 catches while his 344 receptions since entering the NFL in 2014 is the most in league history by a player in his first four seasons. Fellow wideout DeVante Parker showed no signs of an ailing ankle last week by reeling in five catches and 76 yards, but his toes have found the end zone on just one occasion this season.

ABOUT THE PANTHERS (6-3 SU, 5-4 ATS, 4-5 O/U):While Newton rushed for 86 yards in Carolina's 20-17 win over Atlanta on Sunday, the Panthers likely were happier that rookie Christian McCaffrey picked up a season-best 66 with his first rushing score last week. "A lot had to do with the blocking up front," coach Ron Rivera said. "I thought we got our hands on them and we were able to push and Christian was able to make some cuts." McCaffrey leads the team with 54 catches out of the backfield, but Devin Funchess also has stepped up as the team's top wideout since Kelvin Benjamin was traded to Buffalo. "Very savvy. He's growing into the role," Newton said of the 6-foot-4, 225-pound Funchess, who had five catches for 86 yards last week.

TRENDS:

* Dolphins are 0-7 ATS in their last 7 Monday games.
* Panthers are 6-2-1 ATS in their last 9 games in November.
* Under is 4-1 in Dolphins last 5 road games.
* Under is 8-2-1 in Panthers last 11 games on grass.
* Dolphins are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 meetings.

CONSENSUS: The public is siding with the road underdog Dolphins at a rate of 60 percent and the Over is getting 63 of the totals action
