MLS Best Bets Week 1: Odds, tips and picks for opening weekend
Error 0:
Pro Soccer USA’s new weekly “Best Bets” column highlights top betting options among Major League Soccer matches. The odds are taken from MGM’s sportsbook, the official gambling partner of MLS.
If you’re not familiar with sports gambling, the numbers may seem confusing at first. Here are some basics:
Odds are expressed around the number 100.
+ sign before the number means you would gain that much money if you bet $100.
– sign before the number means it takes a bet of that much money to gain $100 in return.
For example, odds of -120 mean you have to bet $120 to win $100. Odds of +120 mean if you bet $100, you win $120.
