(#57) St. Louis Blues @ (#58) Anaheim Ducks | UNDER | .
Considering the stakes of this game, I believe that this is going to be quite a matchup on Friday evening. Both teams are off losses, but both are still trying to win as much as possible down the stretch of the season. The Blues are in must-win territory for every single one of their remaining eight games. Both games last year between these sides stayed below the number as well. I like the defenses in a game like this having both had some struggles lately. Expect both teams to fight as much as possible to keep their opponents to a minimum on Friday, ultimately leading to this game staying "under."
Burns' Prediction: 3-2 Blues.

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.
- Dallas is 1-7 in its last 8 games.
- Orlando is 4-1 ATS in its last 5 games against an opponent in the Western Conference.
- Dallas is 0-13 in its last 13 games at home.
Verdict: The value is on the road favorite.

ASA NBA play on Sacramento Kings +6 vs. New Orleans Pelicans, 10pm ET - In the battle between two bad NBA teams, we will grab the points with the home dog Kings in this one. The Pelicans are coming off a game in Portland last night so don’t be shocked is Murray or Williamson among others sit tonight in this meaningless game. New Orleans has lost 6 straight games, the last four all by double-digits. This will be their 5th road game in six games so a travel weary Pels team will have a tough time finding their legs for this one. Sacramento returns home off a 5-game road trip but had yesterday off. They wrapped up that road trip with a 123-115 win at Toronto. The Kings remaining schedule features just two more home games after this against the Clippers and Warriors so this is literally their best chance to win one last home game for their fans. We are not ignoring the fact that the Pelicans are 4-1 ATS as a road dog, or the fact that the Kings are just 12-18 ATS as a home dog. We are focused on the current play of each team, and the numbers show us the Kings are actually playing better than the Pelicans at this point in time of the season. New Orleans has the worst efficiency differential in the league over the last 5-games at -16.8, while the Kings have an eDIFF of -13.9 over that same stretch of games. We don’t need the Kings to win this game, just keep it close. Grab the points!

UNDER 140
UCONN and Illinois meet in the Final 4 and the under is worth a move. UConn’s defense has been a difference maker all season and especially in the tournament. They shut down shooters and they’re one of the best defensive rebounding teams. They’re going to set the tone earlier and force Illinois into a much slower game than they’d like. This is going to be a half court type of game with both teams slowing the tempo down. Ray’s daily FREE plays are meant to be cheap bankroll plays. Money management is everything in this game, and these freebies are designed to keep you moving in the right direction. Tonight’s FREE selection is a strong lean on the UNDER 140. The number makes sense, the spot is right, and it’s a play worth taking. You know what to do. Good luck — Razor Ray.

The Philadelphia Phillies will send Aaron Nola to the mound to face Colorado. He is 0-0 with a 5.40 ERA and 7 strikeouts this season. In his last five starts against the Rockies, Nola is 0-2 with a 3.31 ERA and 25 strikeouts. Michael Lorenzen gets the call for Colorado. He is 0-0 with a 6.23 ERA and 4 strikeouts this season. In his career, Lorenzen is 0-2 with an 11.42 ERA against the Phillies. Play the over in this one. Nola has struggled with the long ball the last couple of years, and the air in Colorado will be against him. Michael Lorenzen has not fared well against the Phillies' bats in his career. Neither team's bullpen has been great.
Play on the OVER. This is a FREE PLAY!

Jack's Free Pick Friday: Bulls/Knicks OVER 237.5
The Chicago Bulls have just quit playing defense. They are 5-1 OVER in their last six games overall with 243 or more combined points in all six games. They have allowed 124 or more points in all six games as well. This total of 237.5 is short for a game involving the Bulls right now.
That's especially the case with Chicago listing its two lead guards as probable for this one. Josh Giddey has been a walking triple-double here down the stretch, and Tre Jones has scored at least 15 points in seven consecutive games. Collin Sexton provides extra scoring punch off the bench.
The Knicks have found themselves in several shootouts against tanking teams here of late. They recently combined for 249 points with the Grizzlies, 258 with the Wizards and 246 with the Pacers all within their last eight games.
The OVER is 6-2 in the last eight meetings between the Bulls and Knicks with 239 or more combined points in six of those eight games, and 244 or more in five of them. Bet the OVER in this game Friday.

Jimmy Boyd
1* Free Pick on Illinois -125
Illinois enters this Final Four matchup with the most efficient offense in the entire country. They are averaging over 84 points per game and have looked unstoppable during this tournament run.
The biggest edge in this game is found on the glass where Illinois is a legitimate monster. The Illini have posted a massive +16.3 rebounding margin through four tournament games.
UConn is barely a top-100 rebounding team and they were bullied inside during their November meeting. While the Huskies won that early game, Illinois has completely transformed its frontcourt rotation since then.
The Huskies are also limping into Indianapolis with some serious backcourt health concerns. Silas Demary Jr. is trying to play through a Grade 2 high ankle sprain and is clearly not at full strength.
Starting guard Solo Ball is dealing with a chronic wrist injury on his shooting hand that has ruined his perimeter accuracy. His three-point percentage has plummeted from 41 percent last year to just 29 percent this season.
Illinois has the size to punish these physical vulnerabilities with David Mirkovic and 7-foot-1 Tomislav Ivisic. Mirkovic is averaging a double-double in the tournament and will be a handful for Tarris Reed Jr. to manage alone.
UConn depends heavily on their defensive structure, but they cannot stop an Illinois team that is first in the nation in offensive rating. The Illini don't beat themselves with turnovers and they hunt high-quality looks on every possession.
This is a massive revenge spot for an Illinois program that has been eliminated by the Huskies twice in the last two years. The depth and health of the Illini will be the deciding factor in the final ten minutes.
I like the Illinois ML (-125).
I am currently on a 4-game winning streak and have four premium plays available for today's MLB and NBA action. You can view my full card of top-rated releases by visiting my handicapper profile.

Dave's Friday Free Play:
1* on Indiana Pacers +16
The Key: The Indiana Pacers have gone 7-0 ATS in their last 7 games overall with consecutive upset wins over the Heat and Bulls. They also upset the Magic during this stretch. They are playing competitive basketball despite the perception that they are tanking. The Hornets are in a tough situation tonight playing for a 2nd consecutive day after a big win over the Suns last night. They will be content with just getting out of here with a win and not blowing out the Pacers. Take Indiana.

1 Unit FREE PLAY on Sacramento Kings +6
The Sacramento Kings are 3-1 ATS in their last four games and coming off an upset win as 13-point dogs in Sacramento. They had yesterday off and will be the fresher team tonight. The Pelicans are 0-6 SU & 1-5 ATS in their last six games overall. They have four straight losses by double-digits. They will also be playing the second of a back-to-back after a 118-106 loss in Portland last night. Both Murphy and Murray played in that game, so it's likely that one or both rests tonight given their recent injury history and sitting out games. Give me the Kings.

Free Play from Doc’s Sports. Liga MX Take Guadalajara/Pumas UNAM OVER 2.5 (10 p.m. EST, Sunday April 5) Guadalajara Chivas have been one of the top defensive sides in Liga MX this season but they showed some cracks defensively last week at Monterrey, where they allowed two goals. It would be tough to keep up the defensive numbers they have earned this season, especially as we near the postseason and some teams are playing their best. One of those sides is Pumas UNAM, now fourth on the table and the third best side for goals scored league wide. They have now scored in 18 straight matches across all competitions, and they will be ready to compete here and make up some ground on No. 1 Chivas. Guadalajara leads the league in goals scored with 25 through 12 matches, so they are averaging more than two per match. Just looking at the odds, Guadalajara is a heavy favorite and very likely to win, but it’s hard to imagine Pumas getting shut out considering their long streak of matches where they scored. Chivas won 2-1 last time these sides met, in October in Mexico City. We think they can do even better at home and Pumas will not be a pushover here. Nice value on the over even when laying some juice.
John Ryan
Phillies vs Rockies
4:10 EST
7-Unit bet on the Phillies priced as a favorite (TBD expected –175)
The Phillies delivered a stirring late comeback Wednesday, rallying past the Nationals 6–5 in 10 innings after trailing for most of the night. Washington appeared firmly in control after CJ Abrams blasted a three‑run homer in the seventh inning, pushing the Nationals ahead 5–1. Philadelphia answered immediately, though, when J.T. Realmuto homered in the bottom of the seventh to spark life into the ballpark. Bryce Harper followed with a solo shot in the eighth, trimming the deficit to two and shifting momentum back toward the home dugout.
The decisive swing came in the ninth. With two runs already in and the crowd on its feet, Edmundo Sosa lined a single that tied the game at 5–5, capitalizing on defensive miscues and forcing extra innings. The Phillies’ bullpen held firm from there, setting the stage for the rookie to finish it off. In the 10th, Justin Crawford delivered the final blow, lining an RBI single to right field to score the winning run and complete a dramatic comeback from a four‑run hole. The victory showcased Philadelphia’s resilience and timely power, turning what looked like a frustrating loss into one of the season’s early signature wins.
MLB teams that trailed by three or more runs through the 7th inning to a divisional rival and then won the game have compiled a 50-34 record that has averaged a –109 wager, resulting in a 14% ROI since 2004.
Aaron Nola is the starter for this game and for his career has posted a team record of 8-3 record and has allowed an average on 0.82 home runs per start. He has been prone to the long ball in recent seasons, but oddly enough he has minimized those when facing the Rockies. Even when he has started at Coors Field, he is 4-2 allowing 0.83 home runs per start. Of note, is that oin these six road starts against the Rockies, the NERF bet (runs scored in the first inning) is a near-perfect 5-1.

When the Philadelphia Flyers visit the New York Islanders on Friday night at UBS Arena in this Metropolitan Division showdown, the Islanders moneyline stands out as the sharpest play on the board from a trends-and-matchup standpoint. New York sits at 42-29-5 overall with a sturdy 21-13-2 record in front of the home crowd, showing consistent ability to protect their building during the stretch run where every point matters for playoff positioning. Philadelphia comes in at 37-26-12 and owns a respectable 20-13-4 mark on the road, yet the Flyers have historically struggled to find success in Long Island, going just 3-9 straight up in their last 12 visits to face the Islanders.
The head-to-head history tilts heavily in New York’s favor at home, where the Islanders have taken nine of the last 12 meetings outright against Philadelphia. That edge reflects a broader pattern in this rivalry: when these clubs meet late in the season with stakes rising, the home side’s defensive structure and goaltending often prove decisive. The Islanders have capitalized on that dynamic repeatedly, turning divisional battles into low-event wins by limiting scoring chances and capitalizing on transition opportunities in front of their fans.
A major angle in this spot is Islanders goaltender Ilya Sorokin, who owns a sparkling 12-3-3 career record against the Flyers across 18 appearances. Sorokin has posted a 1.53 goals-against average and .946 save percentage in those games, including a recent 4-0 shutout victory over Philadelphia in January where he stopped all 21 shots he faced. That level of dominance against one particular opponent is rare and gives New York a clear edge in net, especially on home ice where Sorokin’s ability to stonewall rush chances has fueled the Islanders’ strong home record.
With both teams battling for positioning in a tight division race, the Islanders’ combination of home-ice reliability, historical success against these visitors, and Sorokin’s proven track record versus the Flyers creates a high-conviction moneyline lean. Philadelphia can be competitive on the road, but the trends show they rarely steal results in this building against a disciplined Islanders squad that tightens up when the lights are brightest. The moneyline on the Islanders captures that edge cleanly in what figures to be a hard-fought, low-scoring Metropolitan affair.

My selection is on Orlando minus the points over Dallas at 8:40 pm et on Friday.
I think we'll see the Magic take their frustrations out on the Mavericks on Friday night in Dallas. Orlando has really sputtered down the stretch, losing eight of its last 10 games (4-6 ATS). The good news is that the Magic have managed to split their last four contests but they're coming off a blowout loss to the Hawks at home two nights ago. Dallas has quite simply been one of the league's worst teams, both SU and ATS, since late January. It enters Friday's contest riding another losing streak as it has dropped the cash in consecutive games as well, losing by 30 against the Timberwolves and 24 against the Bucks. After facing the Raptors, Suns and Hawks in succession, the Magic will be happy to take a step down in class on Friday. I like their chances of winning by margin here. Take Orlando (8*).

Phillies vs. Rockies MLB Free Pick
The Angle(s): The Colorado Rockies are 5-1 to the under so far this season, but this is their first game back at home at Coors Field, the ultimate hitter's park in Major League Baseball. Rockies righty Michael Lorenzen makes his first home start with Colorado, but he's got a brutal 15.95 ERA as a visitor at Coors. Phillies righty Aaron Nola didn't look sharp in his season debut, and has a 4.03 ERA in six career starts at Colorado.
The Bet: OVER (3%).
