LAS VEGAS - Welcome to the Daily Sports Betting Preview on this fine Wednesday!
First up on the Preview, Chelsea and Arsenal face off in the Premier League.
Then, the Philadelphia Phillies and the Washington Nationals go head to head in MLB action.
Finally, the World Cup Of Pool features several intriguing betting matchups.
There’s a lot to cover, so let’s get started!
Soccer Betting
With only three matches left in the Premier League season, Chelsea are looking to secure their top 4 spot.
Right now, they’re six points up on fifth place West Ham, which means they could still technically lose it, should the worst happen.
A victory over Arsenal on Wednesday would go a long way towards making sure that this possibility does not become a reality.
Arsenal have had a disappointing season, and currently sit in ninth place in the Premier League, three points back of Everton.
This matchup, despite being at The Emirates, is heavily slanted in favor of the road team, Chelsea.
Chelsea vs. Arsenal Three Way Moneyline
- Chelsea -120
- Arsenal +355
- Draw +250
An Arsenal victory seems well and truly unlikely in this matchup, having far longer odds than any other possible outcome.
Despite this, the spread on the match is only +/- 0.5 goals.
Chelsea vs. Arsenal Spread
- Chelsea -0.5 (-115)
- Arsenal +0.5 (-105)
On that spread, Chelsea are still slightly favored on the online sportsbooks due to the shading on the matchup, which can be chalked up to the quality difference between the two sides.
It’s worth pointing out that Chelsea -0.5 is effectively the same wager as Chelsea on the three way moneyline - both wagers only cash if Chelsea wins outright.
In that context, soccer betting fans should take Chelsea on the spread, as they have -115 odds on the spread, but -120 odds on the three way moneyline.
This matchup airs at 3:15 p.m. EST on NBSCN.
MLB Betting
The Philadelphia Phillies visit the Washington Nationals and are favored by a slight amount, even as the road team.
The Phillies are coming off of a 6-2 victory over the Nationals on Tuesday, and will have another matchup against the Nats on Thursday.

At 19-17, they have a far better record than the Nationals, who are currently sitting at 13-18.
This puts the Phillies second in the NL East, and the Nationals at the bottom of the division.
Philadelphia Phillies vs. Washington Nationals Moneyline
- Philadelphia Phillies -135
- Washington Nationals +115
The Phillies’ record is quite home-game-heavy, with their 13-6 record at home standing in stark contrast to their 6-11 record on the road.
The Nationals are not particularly good either at home or on the road, with an 8-9 home record and a 5-9 road record.
Still, the gap between Philadelphia’s performance at home and on the road does stand out.
Philadelphia Phillies vs. Washington Nationals Run Line
- Philadelphia Phillies -1.5 (+125)
- Washington Nationals +1.5 (-145)
The Phillies are exactly even on the run line this season, with a record of 18-18, while the Nationals are a bit below .500, at 14-17.
MLB betting fans should take note of the fact that the Nationals are 6-11 on the run line when playing at home.
This game airs at 7:05 p.m. EST, and will be broadcast on MLB Extra Innings and MLB.TV.
Pool Betting
The World Cup Of Pool presents several intriguing betting matchups for those who wish to wager on it. The tournament has been around since 2006 and features a straight-knockout format.
First up, Great Britain C takes on Greece. After that, the USA takes on the Philippines, and Estonia battles Great Britain A.
Great Britain C vs. Greece Moneyline Odds
- Great Britain C -110
- Greece -120
The matchup between Great Britain C and Greece is very even, with Greece taking a small edge on the moneyline.
The gap between -110 and -120 odds is not very large, and could indicate that this matchup could go either way very easily.
USA vs. Philippines Moneyline Odds
- USA -170
- Philippines +130
The USA is a big favorite over the Philippines in the next match, with -170 odds to win. Both countries have won this tournament before and could be on pace to do so again making this a pivotal matchup.
These matchups get more and more lopsided the farther in the day they occur, purely through an accident of fate.
Estonia vs. Great Britain A Moneyline Odds
- Estonia +185
- Great Britain A -250
Estonia’s matchup against Great Britain A is the most lopsided matchup of the day, with Great Britain A having -250 odds to win it.
Fans of wagering on pool can view the event on DAZN, where it will be broadcast live. The earliest of these games airs at 12:30 p.m. EST.
