Major League Baseball (MLB) might not be the most popular sport in the world to wager on, but it still presents a really good betting option. MLB betting comes in many different forms, and this is a season that presents plenty of betting opportunities as well.

Major League Baseball was founded all the way back in 1876, but the league has obviously gone through some major changes since that time. Most of the major rules are still in place, but the way that the game is played is now much different.

There are currently 30 teams in MLB, and every team plays 162 games during the regular season. MLB games typically start at the end of March, or early April, and the World Series wraps up during the first week of November.

MLB teams are split up into leagues and divisions, but there is now more crossover games than ever before. The American League and National League now operate under the same basic rules, and that keeps things similar regardless of what league you are looking at.

Knowing the best MLB betting sites &amp; sportsbooks is also important if you plan to bet on MLB, and this article will explore that as well. By the time you are done reading this article, you should be ready to bet on baseball.

The NHL was founded all the way back in 1917, and the league has seen plenty of growth since that first year. There were only six teams when the league first began playing, but that number has now grown all the way up to 32.

25 of the teams are from the United States while there are also seven teams from Canada. The NHL season typically runs from October through April, with the NHL Stanley Cup Finals taking place during the month of June.

<p>The NFL is giving us this NFC Championship Game on Sunday, January 29, which will take place in Philadelphia, and here you can read the best 49ers vs. Eagles betting pick and odds.</p>



<p>San Francisco is searching for the 13th consecutive win when they visit Philadelphia at Lincoln Financial Field. The Eagles are -2.5 favorites on <a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/mybookie/">MyBookie Sportsbook</a>, while the total is set at 45.5 points. These conference rivals will face for the first time since 2019.</p>



<p><strong>49ers beat the Cowboys in a low-scoring affair</strong></p>



<p>The San Francisco 49ers (15-4-0, 13-6-0 ATS) had a harder job against the Dallas Cowboys in the NFC Divisional Round tilt at home than they did against the Seattle Seahawks in the Wild Card. Still, the 49ers managed to get a 19-12 victory despite failing to impress offensively. Although the Niners scored just one touchdown, they were excellent defensively and also limited Dallas to one touchdown. San Francisco forced a couple of turnovers and made one in return.</p>



<p>Brock Purdy completed 19 of 29 passes for 214 yards. Christian McCaffrey scored the lone TD for the 49ers in this win; he finished with 35 yards on ten rushing attempts and added 22 yards on six catches. Elijah Mitchell led all the runners with 51 yards on 14 carries, while George Kittle was the most productive receiver with 95 yards on five receptions. Defensively, Fred Warner led the team with nine tackles.</p>



<p>QB Jimmy Garoppolo (foot), WR Jordan Matthews (knee), and QB Trey Lance (ankle) are out for the season. DE Charles Omenihu (oblique) and CB Ambry Thomas (ankle) are questionable to face Philly on Sunday.</p>



<p><strong>Eagles didn’t give a chance to the Giants in a blowout win</strong></p>



<p>The Philadelphia Eagles (15-3-0, 9-9-0 ATS) topped the NFC in the regular season and earned a bye week in the Wild Card. The Eagles had enough time to rest and prepare for the clash against the divisional foes New York Giants and destroyed them 38-7. Philadelphia was up 28-0 at halftime and it was evident that the G-Men cannot return from such a deficit. The visitors did draw the first blood in the second half and scored a TD, but that was all from New York. The Eagles dominated total yards (416-227), first downs (26-13), and possession (35:43-24:17), while the hosts forced one turnover and committed none on the other end.</p>



<p>Jalen Hurts completed 16 of 24 passes for 154 yards and two touchdowns. He also added one rushing TD. Kenneth Gainwell had the game of his career as he led all the runners with 112 yards and a score on 12 carries. Miles Sanders added 90 yards on 17 attempts, while Boston Scott scored a rushing touchdown. In the air, DeVonta Smith and Dallas Goedert each produced a TD and combined for 119 yards on 11 receptions. On defense, Josh Sweat and Haason Reddick had 1.5 sacks apiece.</p>



<p>DE Robert Quinn (knee) and DE Derek Barnett (ACL) are out for the year.</p>



<p><strong>Trends:</strong></p>



<p><strong>San Francisco:</strong></p>



<ul><li>23-8 ATS in the last 31 games overall</li><li>5-0 ATS in the last five playoff games</li><li>5-0 ATS in the last five games after allowing less than 15 points in their previous game</li></ul>



<p><strong>Philadelphia:</strong></p>



<ul><li>1-4 ATS in the last five games overall</li><li>1-4 ATS in the last five vs. NFC rivals</li><li>1-5 ATS in the last six games after allowing less than 150 yards passing in their previous game</li></ul>



<p><strong>San Francisco 49ers vs. Philadelphia Eagles Pick</strong></p>



<p>Philadelphia perhaps had the joint-best record in the regular season and dismantled the Giants in the previous game, but I think the Niners are going to give the Eagles a real test on Sunday. The Eagles’ offense has been better thus far as it scores 28.1 points per game opposite San Francisco’s 26.5 ppg. However, the 49ers have the best defense in the NFL and they proved it in the most recent clash against Dallas. Despite the fact that the Eagles are scoring more points than the Niners, I believe the visitors have more offensive weapons and I am backing them to get a win here.</p>



<p><strong>Pick:</strong> Take the 49ers at +2.5 (-105)</p>



<p><strong>The Total</strong></p>



<p>San Francisco’s D is going to prevail in this one. The 49ers kept the opponents to 17 points or below in nine of the previous 12 games, and we know that defenses win championships, which is why I think this one is not going to be a high-scoring affair. Under is 4-0 in the last four H2H meetings; Under is 7-0 in the 49ers’ previous seven playoff road games, while Under is 15-5-1 in the Eagles’ last 21 playoff games.</p>



<p><strong>Pick:</strong> Go Under 46.5 points (-120)</p>

<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>College Basketball Picks -- NIT: LaTech and Western Kentucky in rubber match for final four berth</strong></span>

It doesn't often happen that two teams who have met not once, but twice during the regular season would find themselves facing each other again in a post-season tournament. But that's exactly what will be the case on Thursday night, as the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers and Louisiana Tech Bulldogs square off in the quarterfinal round of the National Invitation Tournament (NIT).

The winner of this game will advance to the final four of the tourney, which is being played in its entirety in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.

Game time is 10 PM ET at the Comerica Center in Frisco, TX, and while ESPN2 is televising it, <a href="http://bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/betanysports"><strong>BetAnySports</strong> </a>offers the opportunity to place wagers in real-time while the action is in progress, utilizing the resources of Sports Betting Prime.

<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>National Invitation Tournament (NIT)</strong></span>
<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>LOUISIANA TECH BULLDOGS vs. WESTERN KENTUCKY HILLTOPPERS, 10 PM ET (ESPN2)</strong></span>

<strong>College Basketball Odds: Western Kentucky -1 / Total 136</strong>

As members of Conference USA, these two have met twice during the regular conference season. And they came in back-to-back nights. On January 8 WKU prevailed 66-64 as Charles Bassey poured in 24 points with 17 rebounds and blocked four shots. The next night Louisiana Tech got some payback, holding the Hilltoppers to 35% shooting in a 63-58 victory.

So you can see a pattern - 130 points in the first meeting, 131 in the next. And both of those figures fall below what we are seeing here. Maybe that's a way to go, but let's continue to explore.

LaTech got by an Ole Miss team that was down two starters in the opener, winning 70-61. They were down ten points at the half, then came roaring out of the locker room in the second half. Kenneth Lofton, a freshman who supplies a lot of muscle on the inside, scored 22 points.

But he was less of a factor in the two meetings, scoring just four points with six rebounds.

The Bulldogs are not a great three-point shooting team, which means they may have to work the inside. And not only is WKU especially strong at defending inside the arc, they aren't going to be surrendering many second chances either, as they are in the top 40 in Defensive Rebounding Percentage.

Part of this, of course, involves Bassey, who is one of the best big men in the country. He is, individually, 5th in the nation in Defensive Rebounding Percentage and 11th in Blocked Shot Percentage. He's imposing, athletic and probably a first-round pick in the upcoming NBA Draft.

He's not bad from the line either. In fact, the 'Toppers as a team have hit 79% of their tries from the charity stripe.

And they got a big effort from Taveion Hollingsworth, who scored 21 points in a 69-67 win over Saint Mary's in their NIT opener. Western Kentucky committed just four turnovers in that game.

Make no mistake about it, though; Louisiana Tech is a good defensive team (27th nationally in Adjusted Defensive Efficiency). They have yielded less than 30% from three-point range, and they can hold their own on the defensive boards. So it won't be any picnic for WKU.

Nonetheless, we've got to give the edge to the Hilltoppers, since we're not sure we envision Lofton standing out at both ends of the floor. And Bassey is going to be too much in the end.
