EPL pick today: Manchester City vs Arsenal – Draw (+230), 2:30 pm ET
The stakes couldn’t be higher when 1st meets 2nd in the EPL this afternoon in London, where Arsenal can demonstrate it has what it takes to stay top of the standings by holding Manchester City. Neither side comes into the match in great form though as Arsenal has taken just 1 point from its last 2 games, a bitterly disappointing 1-0 loss at Everton and a 1-1 tie against Brentford.
City have not been at their best for a while and were awful in a 1-0 loss at Tottenham last week. They are still within touching distance and would go top with a win, albeit having played a game more. They have failed to shut out 8 of their last 10 league opponents, so in what should be a tight game, backing the draw will be the play.

Champions League pick today: Benfica ML over Club Brugge (-125), 3:00 pm ET
Benfica has been one of the in-form teams in Europe this season and is fancied to win again when facing Brugge in this Champions League round-of-16 tie. The Portuguese league leaders are unbeaten in 10 Champions League games this season, while Belgian team Club Brugge has been in poor form, winning just 1 of its last 11 games in all competitions. For that reason, backing Benfica to win will be the play.

Champions League pick today: Borussia Dortmund ML over Chelsea (+130), 3:00 pm ET
Chelsea has looked disjointed in recent weeks and faces a tough test in this Champions League round-of-16 matchup against a Dortmund team that has been rock-solid at home this season. BVB has lost just one of its 12 home games in all competitions, including ties with Manchester City and Bayern Munich. Based on their recent home form, backing Dortmund to win will be the best play this afternoon.

NHL pick today: Edmonton Oilers ML over Detroit Red Wings (-230), 9:37 pm ET
This game features strength on strength as the Oilers offense goes up against the Red Wings defense, as both rank in the top 10 in numerous categories over the past month.
It is worth noting that the Oilers have had the best offense over the past month and have been one of the best teams in generating scoring chances, ranking 2nd in expected goals. This pressure has led to the Oilers finding the back of the net, as they rank tied for 1st in goals per game with a mark of 4.11 over the same time period. Because of their prolific offense, backing the Oilers on the money line will be the play.
