- The Under 5.0 goals in the New York Islanders vs Tampa Bay Lightning game has plus-money odds.
- France is a narrow +170 favorite against Germany in their opening match of the Euros.
- The Pittsburgh Pirates have -130 odds on the +1.5 runline against the Washington Nationals.
TAMPA BAY – With another day of NHL Playoffs, the Euros and a full slate of MLB, there’s plenty of betting opportunities for the day.
As the Tampa Bay Lightning look to avoid dropping two home games against the New York Islanders on Tuesday, NHL betting fans may notice the plus-money value on the Under for Game 2.
Lightning vs Islanders Total Odds
- Over 5.0 -125
- Under 5.0 +105
In the playoffs, both teams rank in the top five in goals allowed per game with the Lightning averaging 2.33 and the Islanders allowing 2.62 per game. This isn’t a fluke either, during the regular season New York allowed a second-best 2.23 goals per game while the Lightning ranked sixth with 2.59 per game.
The first game of the series saw a final score of 2-1 and could be indicative of how the series will play out. Having the Under with plus value in a game that consists of two of the top defensive units in a betting opportunity not worth passing up.
2020 Euros Odds: France Vs Germany
France vs Germany is up there with the best in terms of top group play matches in this year’s Euros. Further, it’s projected to be such a good game that there’s betting value on all sides of the moneyline as online sportsbooks are calling it a near 50/50 matchup.
France vs Germany Moneyline Odds
- France +170
- Germany +175
- Draw +220
France has lost just once in their opening match of the Euros and it was way back in 1960. Germany, on the other side, has never lost their first match with seven wins and five draws on the resume. However, France seems to be in much better form heading into Tuesday’s competition.

France has won four straight games and hasn’t allowed a single goal in any of them while Germany has yet to beat a higher-ranked team in their previous 11 attempts.
All sides have value, but France may be deserving of a shorter soccer line which potentially brings the lowest-risk, highest-reward bet for this match.
MLB Odds: Pittsburgh Pirates vs Washington Nationals
Believe it or not, the Pittsburgh Pirates could be at the center of one of the best betting opportunities across the MLB slate. Despite holding the second-worst record in baseball, the Pirates are in a good spot to have success against the Washington Nationals.
Pirates vs Nationals Betting Odds
- Moneyline: PIT +150, WSH -175
- Spread: PIT +1.5 -130, WSH -1.5 +110
- Total: O/U 8.5
Pittsburgh has an advantage in terms of starting pitchers with Tyler Anderson’s 4.52 ERA and 1.21 WHIP compared to Patrick Corbin’s 6.21 ERA and 1.51 WHIP. Also, the Nationals are hitting just .217 as a team over the past two weeks, the fourth-worst in the MLB.
The Pirates have value on the runline at -130, but also have a legit shot to win this game as moderate underdogs. Sports betting sites are simply offering too generous of a line to not take advantage of.
