Free Sports Picks from Top Betting Handicappers - Best Bets of the Day

For my best free pick on Sunday I am looking at the Las Vegas Raiders hosting the NY Giants. Both these teams come in losers of 9 straight games and two of the worst cover teams in the NFL. Raiders would love to win the last two home games on the season. Giants 0-8 SU on the road this year they have no business being favored here. Look for the Raiders to pull away late in this one. 

Play on Las Vegas plus any points

Giants vs Raiders NFL Free Pick 

The Angle: With two 2-13 teams already looking forward to the draft, one might wonder ie either team is interested in winning this game, bbut I think the Raiders will show up for the home crowd. They moved the ball well on the ground whey they gave Houston a bit of a scare in a 23-21 loss last week, and I expect them to replicate it here against a Giants team giving up 150+ yards on the ground (31st). 

The Bet: RAIDERS (2%).

1* Free Play on Eagles +2½ -110

Sunday's NFL Free Pick

PLAY ON: Eagles +132 (ML)

Sunday NHL Free play. My selection is on New York over Columbus at 5:05 pm et on Sunday.

I think the knee-jerk reaction from most bettors is to fade the Islanders off their big shutout win over the rival Rangers last night. After all, Columbus has a major rest advantage having not played since Monday's 3-1 'upset' win in Los Angeles. With that being said, the Blue Jackets are returning home where they've gone 7-6-3 and have been outscored by an average margin of 0.6 goals this season. New York is 9-6-2 on the road, outscoring foes by an average margin of 0.1 goal. This is one of those difficult one-offs at home for Columbus as it will head to Ottawa to face the Senators tomorrow night. Meanwhile, the Isles will be looking to get this brief two-game road trip off to a positive start before travelling to Chicago to take on the Blackhawks on Tuesday. Take New York.

PSP Data Driven 1* 49ers.

At Professionalsportspicks we see a future where those handicapping sports without advanced analytics and data-driven strategies will be left behind. Our data-driven picks use data integration, search and discovery, and knowledge management along with collaboration with our in-house handicappers. By isolating relevant trends, removing human bias, and targeting only lines with a positive expected value above a certain threshold, our data-driven picks promise to outperform any and all human competitors.

Our models suggest that the value is on the favorite. San Francisco is 5-0 ATS in its last 5 games. Chicago is 7-13 ATS in its last 20 games against San Francisco.

Jack's Free Pick Sunday: San Francisco 49ers -3

The San Francisco 49ers are 5-0 SU & 5-0 ATS in their last five games overall with all five wins coming by 11 points or more and by an average of 16.4 points per game.  This run has coincided with getting Brock Purdy back healthy, and he leads the NFL in QBR (75.8).

Purdy has this San Francisco offense humming with an average of 34.4 points per game during this five-game winning streak.  He just threw 5 TD passes in a 48-27 win at Indianapolis.  He should stay hot against a Chicago defense that ranks 19th in scoring at 23.6 points per game, 25th in total defense at 348.1 yards per game and 28th at 6.1 yards per play.

The 49ers will be max motivated because if they win out they will get the No. 1 seed in the NFC.  The Bears could be in a big letdown spot here after another improbable 22-16 (OT) home win over the Packers.  Trailing 16-6 in the final two minutes, they kicked a 43-yard FG in the wind, got the onside kick and scored a TD on 4th down to tie it at 16-16.  They forced a fumble in OT and took advantage with a 46-yard TD pass from Williams to Moore to walk it off.

Several Bears players were seen wearing cheese grater hats after the game as it was a huge win over a division rival in the Packers that gave them a 1.5-game lead.  The Bears will be 'fat and happy' off that win, plus they have the luxury of knowing they just need to win one of their final two games to clinch the division, or have the Packers lose one of their final two games.  The Packers play the Ravens Saturday night, and if they lose that game the Bears will clinch the division and be even less motivated for this game against the 49ers.

I think the 49ers are the better team on both sides of the football, they are at home, and they have more to play for here.  Not only does Kyle Shanahan deserve Coach of the Year for what he is doing with this banged up roster, Robert Saleh is proving his chops as a defensive coordinator.  Despite losing Bosa and Warner early in the season, the 49ers still rank 11th in scoring defense at 21.3 points per game and 18th in total defense at 332.2 yards per game.  With as good as their offense is, they just need an average defense to be a contender and they have that.  They are also as healthy as they have been in a long time on both sides of the football.

Both the Bears and 49ers are 11-4 this season.  The Bears rank 1st in the league with a +21 turnover differential while the 49ers are -4.  That just shows you how much better the 49ers are as they are a net -25 in turnovers compared to the Bears and still have the same record.  The Bears are 7-2 in one-score games.  I think this is where Chicago's luck finally runs out.

The Bears haven't been nearly as potent offensively without WR Rome Odunze (44 receptions, 661 yards, 6 TD).  They had 6 points in 58 minutes against a banged up Green Bay defense last week.  RT Darnell Wright didn't travel with the team.  Defensively, the Bears are very short-handed in the secondary with four CB's out and another three CB's questionable, including starters Wright and Gardner-Johnson.  LB TJ Edwards is questionable this week as well.  Purdy will light up this secondary.  The Bears are 2-8-1 ATS in their last 11 games after playing Green Bay.  Bet the 49ers Sunday.

This is a play on the CHICAGO BEARS for our Sunday Free Play. We had San Francisco on Monday night as it took out Indianapolis and remains on pace to win the NFC West if it can win out with two tough games left but both at home and both easily within reach yet both losable. The 49ers have won and covered five straight games which is something we go against when the spot is right and this is it as those five wins have come against teams that will not be making the playoffs most likely with the exceptions being maybe Carolina and more unlikely Indianapolis. San Francisco has played an extremely easy schedule and is No. 5 in the Luck Ratings. This is important since Chicago is No. 2 and has been on the same page by winning games it might not should have been but this type of winning is contagious and they Bears are doing it. They have the same schedule rank and a spot back in Offensive EPA and well in front in Defensive EPA, No. 13 compared to No. 22. Here, we play against teams with a winning percentage between .600 and .750 where the line is +3 to -3 after 2 consecutive covers as a favorite, playing a team with a winning record. This situation is 76-43 (63.9 percent) since 1983. Play (429) Chicago Bears

6-0 Saturday. 17-3 Overall sports Run. 242-206-9 NFL Run and Week 17 has FOUR Winners Sunday. CFB 22-10 run. Bowls resume on Monday. CBB 89-67 Run after a 6-0 Run. THREE Sunday Winners. NBA 8-5 Run extended Sunday.

Ricky's 1* play on LAC.

Key Angle: It's important to remember that Ricky never makes a bet on any game based on just one angle. In order to make the grade, all his premium picks must meet several important criteria. He doesn't share all his secrets within his analysis, instead he chooses to reveal only the angle that he feels is the most significant. Here in this game the recent history of these two teams is particularly significant.

- Detroit is 0-6 in its last 6 games when playing on the road against LA Clippers.

- LA Clippers is 5-1 ATS in its last 6 games when playing as the underdog.

- Detroit is 1-4 ATS in its last 5 games against an opponent in the Western Conference.

Verdict: The value is on the home Underdog.
