We’ve put together a four-pick cross-sport parlay that will take you right through Sunday, including action from the NBA Finals, Euro 2020 final, the CONCACAF Gold Cup, and a large MLB slate.
One pick is taken from each competition, with two soccer picks, and a winning ticket gives us a nice payout with odds at +1762 with BetMGM; that’s more than 17/1! Let’s break down each of these four plays. Remember to gamble responsibly.
Best MLB pick: Chicago White Sox -1.5 (-115) vs. Baltimore Orioles, 1:05 pm ET

Best Euro 2020 Final pick: Italy vs. England – Draw after 90 minutes (+195), 3:00 pm ET
England has conceded just one goal in its six tournament matches and has the advantage of playing in front of a home crowd at Wembley Stadium in London. But Italy has dealt with every challenge to date and remains unbeaten in its last 33 matches since 2018. The Azzurri have gone to extra-time or beyond in two of their three knockout ties while the Three Lions required 30 added minutes before taking down Denmark in their semi-final.
These sides have looked extremely strong defensively throughout the competition. Mikkel Damsgaard’s sensational freekick is the only goal England has conceded in six games, whereas Italy has conceded just twice in regulation time of its six games. The last two meetings between these nations ended level and extra time may have to play a part to split them at Wembley.

Best NBA pick: Phoenix Suns +4 (-110) vs. Milwaukee Bucks, 8:05 pm ET
What’s concerning for the Bucks is that they have been outclassed even though Giannis Antetokounmpo is back and has looked better than anyone could have expected following a knee injury of his own. Obviously Khris Middleton and Jrue Holiday can play better, but it’s hard to see Milwaukee turning the tide dramatically even if those things happen. Phoenix is 12-3 ATS in its last 15 overall, 6-1 ATS in its last seven on the road, 4-0 ATS in its last four as a road underdog, and 4-1 ATS in its last five trips to Milwaukee. The Bucks are 0-5 ATS in the last five meetings between the two teams. Take the Suns and the points.

Best CONCACAF Gold Cup pick: USA -1.5 (-130) vs. Haiti , 8:30 pm ET
Haiti comes into this fixture riding high from their two playoff qualification matches where they defeated St Vincent and the Grenadines 6-1 and Bermuda 4-1. The United States will be a much taller task. USA has a strong defense starting with New England’s keeper Matt Turner and the stellar backline of Reggie Cannon, Walker Zimmerman, Miles Robinson and Sam Vines. Couple the difficulty Haiti will have scoring with the re-energized offense of the United States, and I will be taking USA to win comfortably.
