World club football Dec. 16-18 odds, predictions, best bets: AC Milan-Monza Over 2.5 Goals among expert's weekend parlay picks
It's a slow week for big matchups in the English Premier League, but every point counts as the world's top football sides head for the winter break. Liverpool vs. Manchester United is the highlight of the Premier League weekend schedule, with the sixth-place Red Devils visiting Anfield to face the league leaders Sunday at 11:30 a.m. ET. There are top-four showdowns in the German Bundesliga and France's Ligue 1. French power Paris Saint-Germain sit atop Ligue 1 and visit fourth-place Lille on Sunday at 2:45 p.m. ET. Bayern Munich are in second place as they pursue a 12th straight Bundesliga title, and they host Stuttgart on Sunday at 3 p.m. ET.
Bayern Munich are four points behind Bayer Leverkusen in the German league table, and the hosts are -230 favorites in the latest Bayern Munich vs. Stuttgart odds, with Stuttgart +525 underdogs. A draw is priced at +400, and the over/under for total match goals is 3.5. (For complete soccer coverage and more expert picks, check out our soccer analysis pages)Â
The weekend's world football slate offers tons of opportunities for bettors, and the paydays can be huge if you combine your favorite picks into a parlay. Before you make any soccer picks or parlays, make sure you see what soccer expert Jim Holliman has to say.
Holliman has been a writer and editor for more than 25 years and grew up with soccer in his blood. He played competitively through high school and has been following the game closely since the 1970's heyday of the North American Soccer League. His interest has expanded worldwide, and his betting approach is centered on crunching the numbers, but he sees the whole field and relies on his instinct.
Since the 2022 World Cup, Holliman is 121-118-1 on his soccer picks and has been profitable across multiple leagues, including the UEFA Champions League and German Bundesliga. He is 25-15 (+717) on UCL predictions over that span.
Now, Holliman has scoured the soccer schedules for Dec. 16-18 and has found value in four best bets. If you combine these picks into a parlay, you could earn a payout of more than 9-1! The first matchup in the parlay doesn't start until Saturday at 12:30 p.m. ET, so there is plenty of time for you to make your soccer picks.
We can tell you that one pick Holliman loves is AC Milan vs. Monza Over 2.5 Goals (-130). Milan have won the past two home meetings with Monza by 4-1 scores, and the expert predicts both teams will get on the board in the Sunday match (6:30 a.m. ET).Â
Holliman has three other plays in his parlay that would pay more than 9-1, and he is taking two underdogs to cover the handicap. If you combine the expert's picks into a four-leg parlay, you can cash in HUGE! You ABSOLUTELY need to see the expert's predictions before you lock in any soccer picks or parlays of your own.
