After a few lucky picks last week including my prediction that the Los Angeles Clippers would upset the Houston Rockets, I’m back to share my favorite picks for this week with you. Each of the following contests will be available to bet on in Bethereum’s Gaming Contest.

October 29: Tottenham vs. Manchester City (EPL)

There are no teams in all of football as hot as Manchester City. City sits tied for 1st in the EPL with an incredible goal difference margin of 23 forced to only 3 allowed. Tottenham is not far behind them. The Hotspur are 7–0–2 despite their struggles in the Champions League (0–1–2).

My Pick: Tottenham will be desperately looking for opportunities in this contest in front of their home crowd. This is their chance to stake their claim for a shot at the top of the ladder. Both of City’s draws have come on the road, and they will be playing in Wembley Stadium for this match. I’m going to take the draw. Both teams have been playing solid on defense and I could see a 0–0 tie as a realistic result. The payout for this bet will be worth the risk.

Wager: 250 points on the draw.

October 30: Detroit Pistons vs. Boston Celtics (NBA)

My beloved Detroit Pistons, who are starting out very hot at 4–0, have back-to-back games against the Boston Celtics. They recently pulled off what many thought was impossible — beating the 76ers in overtime. The Celtics on the other hand are currently 3–2 after losses to the Raptors and Magic.

There are a lot of questions going into this game — are the Pistons really this good? Are the Celtics really this mediocre?

What is clear is that the Pistons are playing very well at home. Their lone road game resulted in a two-point victory over a banged-up Bulls team. In Boston for this game, I don’t expect the Pistons magic to continue.

My Pick: Boston to win.

Wager: 500 points on Boston to win.

November 1: Florida Panthers vs. Winnipeg Jets (NHL)

The 2–3–3 Florida Panthers are facing a brutally difficult challenge at home as they welcome the Winnipeg Jets (6–3–1). Before losing 4–2 to the Maple Leafs, the Jets pulled off three straight victories against the Blues, Coyotes, and the leaders of the Pacific Division — the Vancouver Canucks.

The Panthers have won just two of their last seven games, and there is no reason to believe they will wake up against the Jets.

My Pick: Winnipeg Jets win with a dominant victory.

Wager: 500 Points on Winnipeg to win.

November 3: Arsenal vs. Liverpool (EPL)

What a mouth-watering matchup this is. The Gunners face off against 7–2–0 Liverpool at Emirates Stadium. While their defense has been outstanding, Liverpool has failed to dominate opponents on offense of late with just two goals over their last three EPL matches, including a 0–0 draw against Manchester City.

Arsenal are the slight underdogs in this matchup although they’ve been dominating their opponents. In their past four Premier League games, Arsenal have outscored opponents 12–2, winning all four games.

My Pick: Liverpool is the more talented side, but they haven’t been playing up to their potential. Playing at Arsenal’s home field will prove to be a difficult challenge. I’m taking Arsenal to win outright.

Wager: 300 points on Arsenal.

November 3: Inter vs. Genoa (Serie A)

This pick is being made purely based on a perceived opportunity to gain a lot of points in this competition by taking a slight risk. I believe action will be leaning heavily on Inter, and rightfully so since they are the better side. However, Genoa is starting to heat up after forcing a surprising tie against Juventus.

My Pick: I’ll place a small bet on the tie. Just make sure to do your research before going along with me on this pick.

Wager: 150 Points on the match ending in a draw.
