There are many other matches, and each one offers numerous options for bettors to cash in. The paydays can be even bigger if you combine your favorite picks into a parlay. Before you make any soccer picks or parlays, you really have to see what soccer expert Jim Holliman has to say.

Holliman has been a writer and editor for nearly 25 years and grew up with soccer in his blood. He played competitvely 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. He is 8-13-1 through his first six weeks of picks for SportsLine. 

Holliman has scoured the soccer schedules for Oct. 8-10 and has found value in four best bets. If you combine these four picks into a parlay, you could earn a payout of almost 10-1! The first matchup in the parlay doesn't start until Saturday at 3 p.m. ET, so there is plenty of time for you to make your soccer picks.

We can tell you that one of the picks Holliman loves is Over 2.5 Goals (-160) in Arsenal vs. Liverpool. Both teams will be fired up, with the Gunners in a battle at the top of the table and Liverpool trying to get back in the title race. Both teams are averaging well over two goals per game, and the Reds will be looking to make a statement, which could "leave them vulnerable in the back," Holliman says.   

Holliman has three other picks in his parlay that would pay nearly 10-1, including a CONFIDENT play on a critical match for MLS playoff positioning. If you combine these picks into the 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.
