We have put together a 4-pick cross-sport parlay that will take you right through Monday, including action from the NBA, NHL, MLB and EPL. One pick is taken from each sport and a winning ticket would give us a nice payout with odds of +1028 at DraftKings. Let’s break down each of these plays.
EPL: Crystal Palace vs Leeds United – Over 2.5 goals (-120), 3:00 pm ET
Any thoughts that Jesse Marsch might have tightened Leeds up since replacing Marcelo Bielsa as the Leeds manager have proved unfounded, and there should be plenty of goals at Selhurst Park today. The last 5 Leeds games have produced 16 goals, with 4 of them cashing for takers of over 2.5 goals. Expect more of the same.
The Eagles lost to Chelsea in their FA Cup semifinal, and then went down to Newcastle last week. However, they have been much more formidable in home games, beating Everton 4-0 and Arsenal 3-0 most recently. Take over 2.5 goals.

MLB: Colorado Rockies vs Philadelphia Phillies ML (-200). 6:45 pm ET
Bryce Harper has been leading the Phillies in RBIs, Kyle Schwarber can go yard at any time, and JT Realmuto is as consistent as they come. The Rockies have CJ Cron and Connor Joe. As great as they’ve been this season, it’s tough for just 2 hitters to keep up with the Phillies lineup. To make matters worse for Colorado, Philly is sending Kyle Gibson to the mound. His first start of the season was stellar with 10 strikeouts, and his last outing was against this same Rockies team. He went a full 6 innings, allowed 3 earned runs on 6 hits for an average start by his standards. The Rockies won’t be in the comfort of their mile-high air, and Gibson should be able to get the win to start this series.

NBA: Toronto Raptors +7 (-110) vs Philadelphia 76ers, 8:00 pm ET
The Raptors extended their season for at least another game with a home win on Saturday. Things should improve for Philly back at home, but this team always leaves you wondering. The Raptors might have found something with their big lineup the other day, though. With Scottie Barnes back and Fred VanVleet out they play a lot bigger. That does not give them the size to match up with Joel Embiid man to man, but it makes the double teams they are throwing at him a lot more effective. I liked what I saw and think the Raptors will push to extend the series again. Win or lose they can keep it close.

NHL: Philadelphia Flyers ML (+115) vs Chicago Blackhawks, 8:05 pm ET
Philadelphia is coming off of a mood-boosting victory, as they pounded their playoff-bound rival Pittsburgh Penguins. They are now heading on the road for a back-to-back effort, but they are carrying some momentum into this game. Chicago has looked horrible all year, and the Blackhawks have looked even worse recently, as they have only 2 wins in the past month or so. Take the Flyers as road underdogs.
