Lavishly's Picks MASL Week #12

Dallas -6.5 @ Saltillo +6.5 over/under 15.5  Dallas has struggled with getting a complete Kicks team on the field, and in their last game they struggled to get offensive opportunities, and when they had them they either were blocked by the skillful Juan Gamboa, or they missed their mark.  Saltillo hasn't won a game, and their first win wont come in this game, but 6.5 is a lot of points, so I will give them to Saltillo, and lets say the game stays under.

Seattle +2.5 @ Turlock -2,5 over/under 15.5  Seattle dropped two games at home to the visiting B-52's, and now they have to go into Turlock to try and get a win, but winning in Turlock will be a tough challenge because it never comes easy to visitors there.  Turlock wins, but I will give the points to Seattle and this game also stays under.

Harrisburg +5.5 @ Ontario -5.5 over/under 25.5  Harrisburg is bad. Ontario covers, but 25.5 is a lot of points so I will pick the unders.

Rochester +1.5 @ Syracuse -1.5 over/under 20.5  The last time Syracuse played Rochester they beat them by 4 goals.  Rochester couldn't get anything going offensively, especially in the second half where it looked like they were chasing and watching the ball a lot,  Syracuse covers, and the game goes over.

Syracuse +9.5 @ Baltimore -9.5 over/under 25.5  Baltimore should be able to hang 5 goals on the Silver Knights, especially since Syracuse will have played a game the night before.  This one goes over.

Chicago +2.5 @ Milwaukee -2.5 over/under 12.5  I don't think that the Wave will lose two games in a row at home, and I think they can cover at home.  This game goes over 12.5

Harrisburg +9.5 @ San Diego -9.5 over/under 24.5  Harrisburg is bad.  Sockers cover, but 24.5 is a lot of goals, so I will stick with the unders.  I think that the Sockers should score 1 goal, and then play defense the whole game.  Every time the Sockers steal the ball, dump it into the Harrisburg goalie, switch out a new crew from the bench, and D it up, over and over.  The final score would be 1-0, and the Sockers defense would be much improved 

Detroit +1.5 @ Rochester -1.5 over/under 14.5  These two teams have played each other twice, close in Detroit, and not close in Rochester.  I think the Waza are due to keep it close and give the Lancer a run for their money and maybe even get the W.  This one is tough, but I will play it safe, Rochester at home covers, and the game goes over.

Tulsa +13.5 @ Missouri -13.5 over/under 19.5  I didn't watch the Chicago vs Tulsa game, but I saw the highlights, and Tulsa looked pathetic.  Chicago picked them apart and scored at will.  Credit to Tulsa for not forfeiting half way through game and sticking it out.  If Chicago can hang14 on the Revolution, so can the Comets.  I am go going to go with the unders, because I don't think Tulsa can score a single goal, especially on Waltman and the Comets' D.

Seattle +0.5 @ Sacramento -0.5 over/under 18.5  Even though both teams are riding losing streaks, Seattle is on a really long losing streak.  With every thing going on with Seattle, morale must be at an all time low, so I will go with the Surge, and stick with the unders.

St. Louis +0.5 @ Wichita -0.5 over/under 10.5  This looks like it will be a good came to watch.  Wichita just got done beating the Seattle Impact twice in a row, but winning at home against the Ambush will be too difficult for the B-52's to pull off.  Dispite the losing record, St. Louis is a very good team in a tough division and should win this game and put the game over.

Brownsville +4.5 @ Oxford City F.C. -4.5 over/under 12.5  These teams will play a double header to make up for a folding Hidalo La Fiera.  I don't have a clue about the second game, so I will guess wildly, just like I do on everything else.  Oxford is the most improved team in the league, and they should have no trouble winning both games.  Oxford covers in both games and the game goes over in both.  

Dallas -0.5 @ Monterrey +0.5 over/under 11.5  This is one of the biggest rivalries in the MASL, and I will be watching this game live, but Dallas going into Monterrey and winning seems like to tall an order for the depleted Kicks side.  Monterrey wins, and the game goes over.

Las Vegas -1.5 @ Turlock +1.5 over/under 11.5  I will also be watching this game.  These two teams always put on a good show when they play each other.  Turlock keeps it close in this one, so I will give them the points, and the game goes over.
