Props and Specialty Bets: Explore popular soccer prop bets, including “Both Teams to Score” (BTTS), “Correct Score,” “First Goal Scorer,” and player props like total shots or cards received.

THE PLAY: Regulation Los Angeles FC -1.5 (-115)
LAFC vs Queretaro
Leagues Cup, Wednesday, 10:30pm ET
Play: LAFC -1.5
Odds at Time of Release: -115 DraftKings
Line Parameter: Line good to -130
LAFC need a win to qualify, and a combination of other results, basically they also need at least two of Dallas, Chicago or Austin to draw or lose their games. LAFC have the worst goal difference than all teams above them, meaning that they will need to fix that. A simple 1-goal win might not suffice, as it would take them to a +2 goal difference while the teams above them are at +3 or better. To be safe, LAFC will need to win their match by at least a 2-goal margin and wait for good results from the other matches.
Queretaro are not exactly a bad team but they had a really bad tournament so far, losing 2-0 to Dallas and 3-0 to Seattle, now eliminated from the competition but it's anybody's guess as to whether they will throw the towel here or try to get a positive result back to Mexico. Not doing well on the road in 2026 (W2 D4 L5), with 4 of 5 away losses coming by 2+ goals.

Consultant Bio
Pavlos betting on European sports when he was in High School, back when most people his age didn't even know how to bet. After acquiring a Bachelor's Degree in International Economic Relationships and development from the Democritus University in Greece, Pavlos took a different path.
Things really took off for him in 2014 when he officially started writing predictions for US-based sites. Things picked up pretty quickly, and he has produced thousands upon thousands of match previous and predictions. He tends to venture off the beaten path, looking for hidden gems in a myriad of games you can bet on.
Single and double bets aside, Pavlos likes to play the odds as well. While some days there are safe single bets, there are other days that provide opportunities for different bets. Bets like Correct Scores, amount of Yellow Cards, Half-Time/Full-Time results, and all kinds of prop bets. Pavlos covers the following leagues: Major League Soccer (MLS), Copa America, EURO Cup, English Premier League, German Bundesliga, Spanish La Liga, Italian Serie A, French Ligue 1, Champions League, and Europa League.
The betting systems he created have seen some massive pay-outs over the years. A couple of correct scores paired together can potentially save your entire season. These are small-stake bets that cost a few units but could bring massive returns on your investment.
