NFL best bets today

Best NFL prediction: Giants +6

The public is all over the favorite Steelers, but I'm taking a contrarian approach as I broke down in my preview for this game:

"The Giants clearly have their own issues on offense, which is why I'm expecting a low-scoring game overall. That is always conducive to the underdog, especially with this total trading in the 30s. If you can't fully trust either team, take the points. And this is simply too many points to pass up."

Best NBA prediction: Anthony Davis Over 26.5 points

Davis has been on a tear to open the season, scoring 30-plus in three straight games to lead the undefeated Lakers. And we like his chances to stay hot tonight:

"The first priority for Redick as head coach appears to be to feature Davis as the primary scorer and initiator in the Lakers' offense. So far, it’s paid massive dividends, with Davis averaging 34 points per game on a 29.6% usage rate ... The Suns have few answers for Davis down low."

Best odds: -110 via DraftKings | Implied probability: 52.38%

Best MLB prediction: Yankees to win Game 3

The World Series shifts to the Big Apple for Game 3 after the Dodgers won the first two games of the Fall Classic. And our Mike Spector likes the Yankees' chances of bouncing back at home:

"The Dodgers have only been underdogs once this postseason when they beat the Padres as +119 underdogs, 8-0, in Game 4 of the Division Series. However, New York is 3-1 at home this postseason averaging nearly five runs per game, and I expect it to make this a competitive series given that it won an MLB-best 55 games against teams over .500 this season."

Best odds: -146 via FanDuel | Implied probability: 59.35%

Toronto hasn't enjoyed the best start to the season after losing three straight and four of their last five. But Gary Pearson fully expects that to change tonight:

"They're being punished more than most teams, with Marchand's overtime winner and Dylan Holloway's power-play goal in the previous game recent prime examples. However, the Maple Leafs have won five straight against the Jets while outscoring them 20-7. The Buds usually put their best product forward for games against the team's Canadian rivals."

Best odds: -105 via bet365 | Implied probability: 51.22%
