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>

UFC Fight Night Preview

<p>The 2021-22 Big Ten Conference regular season wraps up Sunday, March 6, so we bring you the best Maryland vs. Michigan State betting pick along with the latest team stats, news, and odds update on <a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/betus/">Bet Us Sportsbook</a>.</p>



<p>The Terrapins meet the Spartans for the second time this season. On the first day of February, Michigan State outlasted Maryland 65-63 on the road but failed to cover a 3.5-point spread. The Spartans opened as 6-point home favorites with a total of 143.5 points this time around.</p>



<h2 id="h-maryland-won-four-of-its-past-five-games">Maryland won four of its past five games              </h2>



<p>The Maryland Terrapins (15-15; 14-16 ATS) are coming off an 84-73 victory to the Minnesota Golden Gophers this past Wednesday. They covered the spread for the fifth time in their last six outings, playing as firm 7.5-point home favorites.</p>



<p>The Terrapins made 51.7% of their field goals, while five guys scored in double digits. Junior guard Hakim Hart led the way with 19 points, seven rebounds, three assists, and a couple of steals; senior guard Fatts Russell had 16 points, four assists, and three steals, while fellow senior G Eric Ayala added 15 points and nine boards.</p>



<p>Maryland improved to 7-12 in conference play, and the Terrapins hold the No. 10 seed in the Big Ten. They are No. 87 in the NCAA NET Rankings and No. 80 in the KenPom rankings. Maryland ranks 65<sup>th</sup> in the country in offensive efficiency (110.1 points per 100 possessions) and 104<sup>th</sup> in defensive efficiency (99.8).</p>



<h2>The Spartans dropped five of their last six contests               </h2>



<p>The Michigan State Spartans (19-11; 14-16 ATS) are coming off an 80-69 defeat at the Ohio State Buckeyes this past Thursday. It was their second loss in a row and fifth in their last six games overall, as the Spartans continue to struggle on both sides of the ball.</p>



<p>Michigan State trailed the Buckeyes for all 40 minutes and by as many as 15 points. The Spartans went 9-for-18 from beyond the arc, but they also missed six of their 18 free-throw attempts. Furthermore, the Spartans couldn’t make stops, allowing their opponents to score at will. In three of their previous four showings, Tom Izzo’s boys have yielded 80 or more points.</p>



<p>The Spartans are now sitting at the seventh spot of the Big Ten standings with a 10-9 record. They are No. 40 in the NCAA NET Rankings and No. 43 in the KenPom rankings. Michigan State scores 111.4 points per 100 possessions (46<sup>th</sup> in the country) and surrenders 97.0 (59<sup>th</sup>).&nbsp;</p>



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



<p><strong>Maryland:</strong></p>



<ul><li>5-1 ATS in the last six games overall</li><li>4-1 ATS in the last five games against Michigan State</li></ul>



<p><strong>Michigan State:</strong></p>



<ul><li>1-5 ATS in the last six games overall</li><li>3-6 ATS in the last nine games at home</li></ul>



<h2>Maryland vs. Michigan State Pick</h2>



<p>Both teams have to win here if they want to hold on to their current seeds. While the Terrapins have played well over the last couple of weeks, the Spartans have struggled a lot, so I’m backing the visitors to keep it close and cover a 6-point spread.</p>



<p>The first meeting of the season between these two schools was a proper hard-fought battle, as the Terrapins nearly overcame a 15-point second-half deficit. The Spartans certainly possess more depth than Maryland, but the Terrapins have a few players who can make this game interesting to watch.</p>



<p><strong>Pick: Take Maryland +6.0 at -110&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p>



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



<p>The Terrapins prefer to play at a slow pace, averaging 66.8 possessions per 40 minutes. They have to slow down things against the Spartans even though Michigan State registers just 67.9 possessions per 40 minutes.</p>



<p>Maryland needs to execute its offense well and prevent any easy baskets in transition. Also, the Terrapins have to be aggressive on the defensive side of things. Interestingly, Michigan State ranks 11<sup>th</sup> in the country in 3-point percentage (38.4%), but the Spartans take only 19.1 attempts per game (286<sup>th</sup>). The total has gone under in six of the last seven meetings between Michigan State and Maryland.</p>



<p><strong>Pick: Go under 143.5 points at -110&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p>
