Two of the best defenses in the NFL will be on display in this matchup. The 49ers allowed 20 total points in their first two games. Denver currently ranks eighth against the pass and has already recorded eight sacks after leading the entire

Gerrit Cole held the Rays to a .188 batting average in his 2 starts against them this season, while Drew Rasmussen held the Yankees to a .182 batting average in 2 starts against them. Add in the fact that both bullpens are rested and ready to roll, and runs could be hard to come by in Game 1.

The White Sox are throwing a bullpen game, while the Guardians are fully rested and have their lefty ace on the mound. Messick has logged 4 quality starts against the White Sox in 4 starts this year. Let's back the lopsided pitching advantage.

Game Totals Pick

Last season, both teams scored at will. They are each star studded, deep and dynamic, capable of filling their respective opponent’s net. This is going to be a fun one and a nightmare for goaltenders.

The goaltending on each side, coupled with the offensive firepower, could turn this game into a shootout. We’ll take the over and hope pucks find the back of the net.

We saw the Bruins start their season with a 3-0 shutout victory with Jeremy Swayman looking as strong as ever. Winnipeg has yet to take the ice this season, and thankfully, grabbed Stuart Skinner this offseason to make up for Connor Hellebuyck being suspended.

Last season the Hurricanes ranked fifth in goals against per game, averaging 2.88. The Capitals weren’t too far behind, averaging 2.90 goals against per game.

Natalia Silva has seen 6 of her 8 UFC fights end by unanimous decision, while Kong has seen her last 4 UFC fights in a row do the same way. Because of this, and because both fighters rarely lose inside the distance, this looks to be the best betting option.

Payton Talbott has seen 5 of his 7 career UFC fights enter at least the third round, while Deiveson Figueiredo has seen 9 of his 12 UFC fights do the same. Because both fighters have consistently been able to extend their fights, this looks to be the best betting option.

Both Dylan Larkin and Simon Edvinsson will not play for Detroit in this matchup. The Rangers have already had two games to get familiar with one another and build some team chemistry. The Red Wings have not had that luxury, which puts them in a tough spot.

The Brewers had all week to prepare for this series, and they'll be ready on Saturday night. Misiorowski has only given up one run in his last 19.2 innings pitched, and Ray has allowed 14 runs in his last 16.2 innings pitched. Look for the Brewers to jump out to an early lead in Game 1 against the Padres.
