Erling Haaland, Norway, anytime goalscorer (+110)
“Norway have seen Erling Haaland score seven goals over the five matches,” SportsLine soccer expert Jon Eimer reported. “Norway have scored two more goals in all five of their matches. This is a team that is consistently playing the same way whether they pair up against Iraq or Brazil. They press as a unit, play extremely physical footy, and get the dang ball to Haaland. I see no reason for them to switch their tactics now.” Back Erling Haaland by claiming the recent BetMGM bonus code CBSSPORTS here:
Argentina to win + Over 1.5 total goals (+115)
“Lautaro Martínez and Julián Álvarez have struggled to make an impact at this tournament, so it will be down to Messi to lead his team to victory,” SportsLine soccer expert Martin Green reported. “He’s really fired up right now, and he should add to his eight-goal haul in this game. It could be a tight game, as the Swiss have a never-say-die attitude and Argentina’s defense is leaking goals, but Argentina should ultimately outscore their opponents.” Back Argentina by claiming the recent BetMGM bonus code CBSSPORTS here:
Max Holloway to defeat Conor McGregor (-235)
“The last time the Irishman stepped in the cage, he was stopped for the second time in six months by Dustin Poirier and suffered a leg injury in the process,” SportsLine MMA expert Josh Nagel reported. “Although, at McGregor’s urging, the fight result was listed as a doctor’s stoppage, he was seconds away from the fight getting stopped on damage. In short, Poirier had his number again, and the fight result was far from some sort of fluky injury-related stoppage that is now a somewhat widely held perception. Now 37 and five years removed from the cage, this is a terrible matchup against the high-volume Holloway, the former featherweight king who is still going strong at 34. Although Holloway has lost two of his past three bouts, we believe he still has some high-level performances ahead. This will be one of them.” Back the Max Holloway by claiming the recent BetMGM bonus code CBSSPORTS here:
