Well, that was lame.

Sunday’s four-match card ended with just one win: Buckets’ Botafogo over 1.5 team total (+115). Everything else? Nope. Kane didn’t net any of Bayern’s TEN. Atletico couldn’t score. Palmeiras–Porto gave us dust. And to make matters worse, IPJ had two plus-odds winners - Bayern over 2.5 TT (+105) and Botafogo-Seattle over 2.5 (+110) - that his idiot producer forgot to include in the newsletter because of an unrelated fleeting obsession with Houston Dynamo’s shock loss to CF Montréal.

ANYWAY, this is the Billion-Dollar Club World Cup. No time for sulking. We’ve got five plays on today’s slate, including multiple angles on Chelsea–LAFC and a longshot ATGS pick we love.

⚽ Monday, June 16: Six-Pack of Picks

🕒 3 PM ET – 💙 Chelsea vs LAFC 🖤💛

🪣 🏴‍☠️ Consensus TWO-UNIT Pick of the Day: BTTS (-110)

Buckets and Ian agree on this one: LAFC are live. Chelsea will probably win, but both teams should score and probably early. It’s a pace play. Producer Jeff is reportedly on the LAFC moneyline, hedging with the draw 👀

🕕 6 PM ET – 🇦🇷 Boca Juniors vs Benfica 🇵🇹

🪣 Benfica Double Chance & Under 3.5 (-145)

🏴‍☠️ Kerem Aktürkoğlu TSOA (+130)

This game could end up being the one that breaks Group C wide open. We’re splitting the angles; Buckets with a conservative DC + total combo, and Ian taking a flier on Aktürkoğlu to show up big.

🕘 9 PM ET – 🇧🇷 Flamengo vs ES Tunis 🇹🇳

🏴‍☠️ Flamengo to win by 2+ (+105)

🪣 Pedro ATGS (+105)

Flamengo were built for this competition, and ES Tunis are not. Buckets likes Pedro to score, IPJ likes them to smash. Both are in play.
