8-Unit Play Liga MX Take Queretaro/Atlas OVER 2.5 (+105) (6 p.m. EST, Sunday August 17) (Graded after regulation time - 90min - plus injury time)
Queretaro has had trouble scoring this season. There is no doubt about that. But they have played three of four to start the season, and two of their four matches were against two of the strongest defenses in Liga MX. But their opponent today, Atlas, from Guadalajara, is not among the best defensive clubs in the Liga. In fact, they are the second worst defensive side, after Puebla, who already played their fifth match this week on Friday. Atlas have given up 11 goals through four matches so far, close to three per match. And this looks like it could be a break out match offensively for Queretaro. We have no doubt that they will put an emphasis on scoring here. They haven’t had a home match since late July, and this team is the most lethal offensively on the home pitch. This team stinks offensively season in and season out. But they have five goals in their last three home matches against Atlas. And this version of Atlas is possibly the worst defensive side they have had in some seasons. Eight of the last nine meetings at Queretaro have gone over 2.5. Atlas has been decent offensively this season and they have averaged close to two goals per match. They could easily get two here, or more. We think the home side will definitely score, and it would not shock us to see them score multiple goals here. The oddsmakers are slow to realize just how porous this Atlas defense is, and we will take advantage against this value moneyline.
Best of Luck – Doc’s Sports

Romania Liga 1
3-Unit Play. Take #206893/206894 ‘Over’ 2.5 (-100) FSCB at Rapid Bucuresti (2:30 p.m., Sunday, Aug. 17)
FCSB will be ready to go and that should lead to an entertaining match with plenty of goals. FCSB rides the momentum of a 3-1 win in Europa League Qualifiers and has now scored 3 goals in 3 of the last 4 matches. FCSB did lose 1-0 in a shocking loss in Romania Liga 1 action in their most recent match here in league action . That ensures proper focus here and they have scored 5 goals in the last two meetings with this city rival. FCSB has also conceded 4 times in the last two meetings with Rapid and I look for another high-scoring battle between the rivals here. Look for Rapid to be aggressive on the attack in this one. They are hoping to catch FCSB a bit fatigued defensively since they have had recent action in qualifiers - 1st for Champions League and then for Europa League. So the set-up here is perfect for goals and Rapid has averaged 1.6 goals thus far in league action . We should see at least a 2-1 battle here. 3* OVER 2.5 (-100) in Rapid Bucuresti.

7-Unit Play. MLS. Take Over 2.5 Goals (-155 @ FD) NYCFC vs Nashville SC (Sunday @ 5:00pm est)
NYCFC and Nashville SC are lining up for what should be a goal fest at Yankee Stadium. When these two clubs get together the scoreboard usually lights up and three of the last four matchups have gone over the posted total. NYCFC has been tough to contain at home where their attack feeds off the energy of the crowd and they are creating plenty of chances. Nashville is no stranger to playing in high scoring games either and their front line can punish any defensive slip up. Both sides have weapons who can change a match in a flash and neither team looks like they are built to grind out a cagey one. All signs point to goals flowing and the over 2.5 hitting again.
