World Cup Betting Preview - For the United States, redemption's a theme in Qatar

<p>The UFC is going to leave the United States for the weekend as it’s time for UFC Fight night from Kingdom Arena in Saudi Arabia. This will be the first time that the UFC will be in that part of the world, but there is a terrific card set up.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The main event will feature a great middleweight battle between championship contenders, and the <a href="https://bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/bookmaker" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">betting odds</a> are tight as well. Here is a look at the best fights of the night, and some of the bets that should be made. </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Aliskerov-Whittaker Ready for Battle</h2>



<p>The main event is a fight that is a long time coming as both the fighters have been on a path to contend for a title belt. Ikram Aliskerov will face off against Robert Whittaker and the latter is a slight betting favorite in this matchup.&nbsp;</p>



<p>This fight was actually just thrown together based on some other scratches, but these fighters were always going to meet up at some point. Aliskerov comes into this fight with odds set at +131, while Whittaker is a slight favorite at -151.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Whittaker will be delivering Aliskerov the first loss of his career, as he has been a fighter that just continues to impress. This should be a great matchup of two aggressive fighters, and this one will be decided by a knockout of some sort.&nbsp;</p>



<p>There is a really good chance that this fight will end with an upset, and getting Aliskerov at +131 is an opportunity that you can’t pass up. </p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Heavyweights Ready for Battle</h2>



<p>The UFC has done a great job of putting together some other great fights, and that includes a huge heavyweight battle between Alexander Volkov and Sergei Pavlovich. This is another fight where the betting odds are pretty tight, and it should lead to an excellent battle in Saudi Arabia.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Pavlovich has already had a shot at winning the title in this weight class, but he was clearly not prepared for that battle. He is the favorite in this battle at -201, but he will have his work cut out for him.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Volkov comes into this fight with three straight wins, and all three of them have come via stoppage. While that is an impressive run, that’s not going to be what happens in this fight.&nbsp;</p>



<p>If you are going to bet on this fight then you want to take Pavlovich at -201 to come away with another impressive win.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Desperate Welterweights Ready to Fight</h2>



<p>Daniel Rodriguez will be looking to pull off a pretty big upset when he takes on Kelvin Gastelum in Saudi Arabia this weekend. Rodriguez currently has <a href="https://bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/bookmaker">odds</a> set at +220, but he is facing Gastelum (-260), and he is another fighter that has been struggling to win of late. </p>



<p>Since both of these fighters are coming into this bout on a losing streak, there will be a bit of desperation that is shown throughout the fight. This might end up being the biggest upset of the night, and going with Rodriguez at +220 is the way to go.</p>

<p>Wimbledon, the oldest tennis tournament in the world, takes center stage this weekend with plenty of intriguing matches ahead. The 137th edition of the tournament is shaping up to be a memorable one with plenty of intriguing storylines. Novak Djokovic is seeking his 25th career grand slam title and first of the season, but is coming off a knee injury and hasn't been at his best this season. Meanwhile, Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner, who won the first two grand slams this season, are looking to stake their claim as the next great player in the sport.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">First Week Recap</h2>



<p>The top five seeds in the men's draw at Wimbledon are still in contention, but there has been a few notable upsets. Andrey Rublev, Hubert Hurkacz, and Casper Ruud are the three top-10 seeds already eliminated from contention. Eleventh seed Stefanos Tsitsipas is also out of the tournament after losing 6-7 (6), 6-7 (10), 6-3, 3-6 to Emil Ruusuvuori. Other top-20 players out of contention include Felix Auger-Aliassime and Sebastian Korda.</p>



<p>There have been a number of competitive matches thus far as well. Ben Shelton booked a spot in the third round via 4-6, 7-6 (5), 6-7 (5), 6-3, 7-6 (7) win over Lloyd Harris in the second round. His third-round opponent, Denis Shapovalov, beat Daniel Altmaier in five sets in the second round. Tenth seed Grigor Dimitrov also needed five sets to beat Juncheng Shang, rallying from down 2-0 to win 5-7, 6-7 (4), 6-4, 6-2, 6-4. </p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><a href="https://bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/betonline" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Alex Zverev (-650) vs. Cameron Norrie (+400)</a></h3>



<p>Alex Zverev is a good outright pick to win Wimbledon and, as such, should have little trouble beating Cameron Norrie in the third round on Saturday. Zverev, the 2020 Olympic champion, was runner-up at Roland Garros and appears to be on the cusp of grand slam greatness. He had a 2-1 set lead over Alcaraz before losing in the final of the French Open and has seemingly used that as motivation at the All England Club.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Alcaraz beat Roberto Carballes Baena 6-2, 6-4, 6-2 in the first round and followed that up with a 6-2, 6-1, 6-4 win over Marcos Giron. He's 4-2 in his career against Norrie.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Arthur Fils (-160) vs. Roman Safiullin (+125)</h3>



<p>Arthur Fils, a 20-year-old rising star on the ATP Tour, earned the biggest win of his young career in the second round, beating Hubert Hurkacz, the seventh seed, in four sets. Hurkacz technically retired, but he did so while facing match point in the fourth round as he was unable to continue due to a knee injury. Roman Safiullin, meanwhile, scored upset wins over Francisco Cerundolo and Tomas Machac.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Fils is the pick here as he is 2-0 in his career against Safiullin and looked like a player ready to take the next step in his match against Hurkacz. Expect big things from him going forward.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><a href="https://bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/betonline" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Alexei Popyrin (+500) vs. Novak Djokovic (-900)</a></h3>



<p>This should be an interesting match as Djokovic has really yet to be tested through his first two matches. He won his first two matches, but both opponents were ranked outside of the top-100. His second-round opponent, Jacob Fearnley, ranked No. 271 in the world, even took a set off the 24-time grand slam champion. Popyrin, meanwhile, is into the third round at Wimbledon for the first time in his career after a five-set win over Tomas Martin Etcheverry. Djokovic beat Popyrin in four sets at the Australian Open earlier this season.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-history-amp-records">History &amp; Records</h2>



<p>The Jerome Stakes is the second oldest stakes race in the U.S., with only the Travers Stakes having been held before the race at Aqueduct. The Jerome has been a key stop for a number of Kentucky Derby winners throughout history, with the most recent horse to win both races coming in the form of Fusaichi Pegasus in 2000.</p>



<p>It has been an official Derby prep race since 2014, and it has been run over a mile since 2011. Eddie Arcaro is the most successful jockey in the history of the race with six victories, while Sam Hildreth is the dominant trainer throughout history with five wins between 1908 and 1922.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-leading-contenders">Leading Contenders</h2>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-drum-roll-please">Drum Roll Please</h3>



<p>The Brad Cox yard will be represented by Drum Roll Please in the Jerome this weekend. The three-year-old has won once from four career starts, and was last seen finishing a very respectable third in the G2 Remsen over course and distance.</p>



<p>That performance earned a speed figure of 90, and down in grade this weekend, he could be extremely hard to beat for leading connections. However, it would be a slight concern that he wasn’t able to get his nose in front until his third career start, but the strength of his recent run does hold him at the top of the betting.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-el-grande-o">El Grande O</h3>



<p>Linda Rice’s horses are in excellent form at present, and that winning sequence could be set to continue with El Grande O in the Jerome. The three-year-old is one of the most experienced runners in this field after winning three from eight career starts. In fact, he has finished outside of the first three on just a single occasion.</p>



<p>That effort came when finishing sixth in the G1 Champagne Stakes. He bounced back to winning ways in lesser company at the end of October, reaching a speed figure of 85 when landing the Sleepy Hollow Stakes. El Grande O ticks a lot of boxes this weekend, and clearly holds excellent claims at this level.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-regalo">Regalo</h3>



<p>Brittany Russell’s runner in the race this weekend is Regalo, who could be one of the most progressive contenders in the field. The three-year-old has won on each of his previous two starts, which includes an allowance optional claimer success at the start of December, scoring a speed figure of 82.</p>



<p>He makes the step up in class this weekend, and he could be ready to make a big impression. However, the fact that he has no previous experience at Aqueduct could be a slight concern.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-jerome-stakes-prediction">Jerome Stakes Prediction</h2>



<p>Drum Roll Please could be the standout contender this weekend for Brad Cox. The three-year-old ran with a lot of credit in Grade 2 company on his previous start, and should be well-positioned to claim points on the Road to the Kentucky Derby back in class this weekend.</p>
