Daily Odds Boost check for Sunday, July 12

This is a great time to be a sports bettor. As sports betting becomes legal in more and more locations, the various sportsbooks are all vying for your business.

Targeting daily odds boosts bets can be one of the best ways to take advantage. Each day, I’ll be highlighting some of the best odds boosts across the industry and where you can find them.

Sunday’s slate is full of sports action, with most of the major soccer leagues around the world in play. NASCAR also takes center stage this afternoon with the Quaker State 400, so there are plenty of odds boosts available.

English Premier League Odds Boost

Tottenham Hotspur vs. Arsenal (11:30 a.m. ET start)

Boosted bets: Arsenal to win — +200 on FanDuel (was +170)
Both teams to score — +100 on BetMGM (was -167)

The North London Derby is one of the best rivalries in English soccer, and they will renew that rivalry Sunday. It has been a disappointing season for both squads — Arsenal sits in eighth in the Premier League, Tottenham is 10th — but expect them to bring their A games in this one.

If you’re looking to take Arsenal, FanDuel is offering a slight odds boost on their moneyline.

That said, I think the bet for both teams to score at BetMGM is one of the best values on the board. These teams combined for four goals in their first matchup this season, and both teams rank in the top-seven in the Premier League in terms of goals scored. Defense has been the biggest issue with these teams this season, so grabbing both teams to score at even money feels like a sharp wager.

Spanish La Liga Odds Boost

Levante vs. Athletic Bilbao (11 a.m. ET start)
Leganes vs. Valencia (1:30 p.m. ET start)
Sevilla FC vs. Mallorca (4 p.m. ET start)

Boosted bet: Athletic Bilbao, Valencia and Sevilla all to win — +650 on DraftKings (was +592)

Backing three teams to win in soccer is definitely risky — if just one team loses or draws you’ll lose your wager — but there are reasons to believe in these squads here. Athletic Bilbao, Valencia and Sevilla are all teams that have historically fared well in La Liga, and they are all currently sitting in the top half of the standings.

Meanwhile, Leganes and Mallorca are squarely in the relegation zone. Valencia is the biggest longshot of the group, but they’re still slight favorites at +175.

NASCAR Odds Boost

Quaker State 400 (2:30 p.m. ET start)

Boosted bets: Aric Almirola to finish in the top three — +800 on FoxBet (was +700)
Chase Elliott to win — +950 on William Hill (was +800)

There are plenty of ways to get down on the NASCAR action Sunday afternoon, including these two odds boosts.

Unfortunately, there isn’t a ton of information to digest given the current COVID-19 restrictions. There is no qualifying and no pre-race practice runs, so the starting spots are selected somewhat randomly.

Almirola is currently starting in fourth position, so he only needs to move up one spot to finish in the top three. He has three tough drivers in front of him in Kyle Busch, Joey Logano and Kevin Harvick, but anything can happen in racing. Almirola has finished in the top five in five straight races, so he has the ability to contend.

Elliott is starting a little further back in eighth, but he has recorded a win since the restart. His record at the Kentucky Speedway is pretty mediocre, but grabbing him with just the fifth-shortest odds could provide some value.
