7-Unit Play CONCACAF Champions Cup Take Real Espana/LAFC UNDER 2.5 (+100) (10 p.m. EST, Tuesday February 17) (Graded after regulation time - 90min - plus injury time)
LAFC is a very good offensive side. But they haven’t played a competitive match since November, and we don’t think they will be in mid-season form offensively. We don’t see them doing too good here in the road in this first leg matchup. Real Espana, from the Honduran Liga Nacional, is a very strong defensive side. They are obviously taking a big step up in competition from who they usually play, but we think the assignment for them will be to defend, defend and defend some more. They have allowed two goals total in their last three matches and they have two clean sheets in their last six. They have allowed an average of less than a goal per match through six matches in their domestic season. They will have a tough time finding the back of the net against the superior athletes on LAFC, and we think this match will be a bit of a slog – which will work for us on the under in this scenario. The second leg could me more wide open where LAFC could find their footing and rack up some goals at home, but we expect a low scoring matchup here in San Pedro Sula.
Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports

ENGLISH CHAMPIONSHIP LEAGUE
7-Unit Play. Take Bristol City (+130) over Wrexham (2:45 p.m., Tuesday, Feb. 17)
3-Unit Play. Take ‘Draw’ (+260) Bristol City vs. Wrexham (2:45 p.m., Tuesday, Feb. 17)
I think it is letdown time for Wrexham. They pulled another upset in the FAC Cup over the weekend, advancing to the Final 16 in that tournament for the first time in nearly 30 years. Now they have to go on the road and face a team just below them in the standings in the Championship and I don’t see them having the juice to pull three full points here. They also have a rematch with Ipswich Town the No. 2 team in the league and the team they just beat in the FA Cup – this weekend at home. That’s a bigger game so we will catch them in a letdown-look ahead situation. And as long as they don’t pull a stunner we will cash for today.
Carpe diem. Good luck.

Champions League3-Unit Play. Take #224201/224202 'Over' 2.5 (-120) Juventus at Galatasaray (12:45 p.m., Tue, Feb. 17)Galatasaray has scored 15 goals over their last 4 matches. Juventus has scored 8 goals over their last 4 matches. Juventus has allowed 9 goals over their last 4 matches and I also don't see Galatasaray being able to slow down Juventus here. Juventus is winless last 3 matches but has been scoring goals well in B2B matches and they do so again here. 3* OVER 2.5 (-120) in Galatasaray
Champions League2-Unit Play. Take #224213/224214 'Over' 2.5 (-150) Real Madrid at Benfica (3 p.m., Tue, Feb. 17)No write-up on this one today as I am close to the posting deadline and need to get this posted before the deadline today on Tuesday. Smaller selection here due to the price but this is still a solid value. 2* OVER 2.5 (-150) in Benfica

3-Unit Play: Champions League Take Galatasaray/Juventus UNDER 2.5 (+100) (12:45 p.m. EST, Tuesday Feb. 17)
The under is the value play here in this first-leg knockout round playoff from the UEFA Champions League--the most prestigious club tournament in Europe. While the over might be favored by some due to recent trends, we're fading that and leaning toward a low-scoring, cagey affair. These teams have a history of entertaining encounters, but their most recent meetings date back over a decade (with Galatasaray holding a slight edge historically in Champions League group-stage clashes, including a 1-0 win in 2013). More relevantly, both sides have shown strong defensive discipline in this season's expanded Champions League group phase. Juventus have conceded just 10 goals across eight games (1.25 per game), while Galatasaray have allowed 11 in the same span (1.38 per game) and scored only nine themselves. Galatasaray have been prolific at home in the Turkish Super Lig, often racking up goals against domestic opposition. However, this represents a significant step up in quality against a Juventus squad known for tactical pragmatism under their current setup. With a place in the round of 16 on the line and a second leg awaiting in Turin, both managers are likely to prioritize caution in this opening matchup--focusing on defensive solidity, avoiding early concessions, and keeping things tight for a potentially more open return fixture. High-stakes knockout ties, especially first legs away for the higher-seeded side, often produce fewer fireworks as teams probe without overcommitting. Expect a disciplined, low-event game where chances are limited and the under provides solid value.
