On the latest episode of Bet the Edge, Sara Perlman and Drew Dinsick discuss Chris Paul’s return for Game 3 against the Clippers. Drew breaks down how he is handicapping the game total in the tonight’s game and why possessions and pace play a huge role in markets setting the total.
NBC Sports EDGE’s Matt Bernier joins the show to talk Stanley Cup Playoffs and believes the Golden Knights (-140) show up tonight in an elimination game against the Canadiens. He also expects the low-scoring trend in the Vegas-Montreal series to continue (Under is 5-0-1). The Islanders forced a Game 7 after winning in overtime against the Lightning, but Matt still sees Tampa as the superior team in this series.
The knockout stage is set for Euro 2020 and Nick Hennion offers his best plays for the Round of 16. He likes the Netherlands (-150) and Denmark (-125) to move on to the quarterfinals. He also tells us Sara and Drew how he’s targeting the outright winner with such a competitive field.
Sara and Drew look to keep it rolling after a 2-0 Wednesday night with their Edge of the Day plays. Drew has been locked in for the Suns-Clippers series and is backing Los Angeles (-105) to get the win at home. After getting swept by the Padres, Sara expects the Dodgers to get a comfortable win over the Cubs and is taking Los Angeles on the run line (-125).
