| WCUP | (225517) Norway at (225518) Ivory Coast: Spread | 1:00pm EDT - Jun 30/2026 |
The PLAY: Ivory Coast +0.5 (-122)
Norway enters this one fully recharged after resting key starters in their last match. Their attack is relentless in volume and quality, led by the Ødegaard-Haaland connection that can unlock even the best defenses. Norway have scored in 22 straight competitive matches, showing they can create chances consistently.
However, their defensive issues remain a glaring concern. This is a leaky backline that has conceded heavily in xG terms and earned just one clean sheet in their last nine games. That vulnerability gives opponents real opportunities on the counter and in transition.
Ivory Coast is well-equipped to exploit it. Their midfield is built to control tempo and disrupt Norway’s rhythm, while their fluid transition threats have the pace and movement to punish an open defensive shape. The Ivorians should be able to dominate stretches of the game and stay competitive from minute one to 90.
While Norway’s star power should eventually find a way through late, I expect Ivory Coast to make this a proper battle throughout.
Take: Ivory Coast +0.5 (-130)

| MLB | (959) San Francisco Giants at (960) Arizona Diamondbacks: Moneyline | 9:40pm EDT - Jun 29/2026 |
The PLAY: Arizona Diamondbacks -134 Eduardo Rodríguez (LHP) Must Start
Tyler Mahle has had a rough go of it this season. The right-hander sits at 1-7 with a bloated 5.49 ERA and 1.46 WHIP over just 62.1 innings. He’s been wildly inconsistent, unable to limit damage in big innings, and too often surrenders early leads. That profile is a tough one to trust on the road against a good lineup.
On the flip side, Eduardo Rodríguez has been pitching like a true ace. He’s 6-2 with an excellent 2.27 ERA and 1.19 WHIP. Rodríguez is rolling right now — in his last two starts he’s gone at least 6⅔ innings while allowing one or zero earned runs in each. He’s in pristine form and gives Arizona a massive edge on the mound.
The season series has been all Diamondbacks. Arizona is a perfect 6-0 against San Francisco in 2026, with clean sweeps both at home and on the road. These two pitchers met back on May 26th, and the story was the same: Rodríguez threw 6 strong innings of 2-run ball to earn the win, while Mahle was tagged for 3 earned runs in 5 innings in a 7-5 Arizona victory.
Given Arizona’s total dominance in the season series and the significant pitching mismatch (Rodríguez at 2.27 ERA vs. Mahle at 5.49), the Diamondbacks moneyline at -135 stands out as excellent value.
Official Play: Diamondbacks -135
