The Champions League is back this week, which means it is time to have some fun and look for some of the best bets across all the different sports and pile them into one parlay. We’ve put together a four-pick cross-sport parlay which will take you right through the day, including action from the NHL, NBA, MLB and Champions League.

Each pick is taken from each sport and a winning ticket gives us a nice payout with odds at +1833 with FanDuel — more than 18/1! Let’s break down each of these four plays. Remember to gamble responsibly.

Best Champions League Pick: PSG vs. Manchester City Over 3.5 Goals (+144), 3:00 p.m ET

Mauricio Pochettino will be forced to chase the game, given the balance of the tie, and PSG is not blessed with defensive midfield cover in Idrissa Gueye’s absence.

There’s also no side in Europe better equipped to exploit any gaps left by the opposition than Man City and it’s not hard to see Pep Guardiola’s men picking PSG off. It is certainly not out of the question that PSG could find the net themselves and any side with the likes of Neymar and Kylian Mbappe at their disposal will pose a major threat. With how open this game is expected to be, we will be backing the over.

Best NHL Pick: Boston Bruins vs. New Jersey Devils Under 5.5 Goals (+100), 7:00 p.m ET

Although a very good team, the Bruins do not tend to play in many high-scoring games as they are only averaging 2.92 goals for per game. On the other side, the Devils just do not have the offense to score a lot of goals. The Bruins will have Jeremy Swayman in net and he has been very good. He currently has a 6-2-0 record, with a 1.62 GAA and .942 SVP. For that reason, we will be backing this game to stay under the total.

Best NBA Pick: Brooklyn Nets ML (-102) vs. Milwaukee Bucks, 7:40 p.m ET

The Nets were in the game until the very end this past Sunday with Kyrie Irving struggling for the majority of it. Expect him to play a lot better tonight and the Nets to regroup, especially on the defensive end. While Giannis had a monster game on Sunday, it is unlikely he will shoot the type of numbers he did for two games in a row. Plus, we expect Brooklyn to do a better job defending him and will probably use double coverage for majority of the game. Kevin Durant surely won’t allow Brooklyn to lose their third straight, so back them to win on the road.

Best MLB Pick: Tampa Bay Rays ML (+100) vs. Los Angeles Angels, 9:40 p.m ET

This is a great fade spot as Anaheim will send veteran Alex Cobb to the mound. It doesn’t take a genius to know Cobb is past his prime – he went 7-22 in Baltimore and has been even worse through his first four starts as an Angel, pitching to an ERA of 7.16. He’s exactly who the Rays’ offense wants to face in the hopes of breaking out.
