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 this season. Holliman nailed a parlay at almost 9-1 six weeks ago and hit two paying almost 12-1 in 14 weeks of this article in 2022-23.Â
Now, Holliman has scoured the soccer schedules for Dec. 2-4 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 2:45 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 Liverpool -1.5 (-140) against Fulham on Sunday (9 a.m. ET). The Reds come off a 4-0 rout of LASK Linz in the Europa League on Thursday and have won all six of their league games at Anfield. Meanwhile, Fulham are floundering and are winless in their past six on the road.
Holliman has three other plays in his parlay that would pay more than 9-1, including two Overs on goal totals. If you combine these 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.
