Ricky's 1* play on KOR.
Key Angle: It's important to remember that Ricky never makes a bet on any game based on just one angle. In order to make the grade, all his premium picks must meet several important criteria. He doesn't share all his secrets within his analysis, instead he chooses to reveal only the angle that he feels is the most significant. Here in this game the recent history of these two teams is particularly significant.
- South Korea are unbeaten in their last 15 all competitions games.
- South Korea has scored 8 goals in their last 3 games.
- South Korea has conceded only 1 goals in their last 3 games.
Verdict: The value is on the Underdog.

OVER 2.5
Canada and Qatar meet and we’re on the over. Both teams had a 1-1 draw in their opening match and this game this game should be much more wide open for both sides. Canada has a far better attack and will look to get out and be much more aggressive against this weak Qatar defense. We’ve also seen that Canada is vulnerable at the back and Qatar has the ability to work well on the counter. This is a great spot for a lot of goal scoring chances. Back the over. Ray’s daily FREE plays are meant to be smaller bankroll plays. Money management is everything in this game, and these freebies are designed to keep you moving in the right direction. Today's FREE selection is a strong lean on the OVER. The number makes sense, the spot is right, and it’s a play worth taking. You know what to do. Good luck — Razor Ray.

BIG Thursday up with MASSIVE WNBA Z-Factor TOTAL, Afternoon World Cup Soccer and a 23-2 MLB Pitching Power Angle Play. Comp play below
The World Cup Comp play for Thursday is on Canada -1.5 goals at 8 eastern. Canada moves to their 2nd game in Group B after an opening match draw with Bosnia. Now they take on a Qatar team that surprised a Solid Switzerland team to a 1-1 draw as a sizeable dog. Canada is the host nation and will likely win this game and put a few behind the back of the net. On the back line the Canada team is very difficult to break down and they likely get a clean sheet here as Qatar has 2 losses and 3 draws in their recent games and has a roster built mostly around league players. In contrast Canada has more established players from Leagues across the globe. Canada is to heavy for a money line play so we will back them at -1.5 goals tonight. GL Rob V-

Free World Cup Soccer Play from Doc’s Sports. Take #225373 Japan over Tunisia (11:59 p.m. EST, Saturday June 20 FS1) Even though we are skeptical that Japan will go too far in this tournament we were super impressed with their resilience in their opener vs. Netherlands. Every time they were punched in the face with a Dutch goal, they punched back with one of their own and earned what should be a very important point in a 2-2 draw. Group F has three very good sides and with Sweden beating Tunisia 5-1 in their opener, it is now evident that Japan and Netherlands will need big results vs. Tunisia. We don’t think the Japanese leave anything to chance here, and we think they will be aggressive in searching for goals and we think they will get them. Tunisia have scored only a single goal combined in their last three matches and they were outscored in their last two against top competition with a goal differential of -9. Japan will have plenty of opportunities here and they showed vs. the Dutch that they can take advantage with accurate shots.

After digging into the full Thursday schedule, the spot that stands out strongest for a totals play is the Under 7.5 in the Guardians-Brewers game. Afternoon interleague matchups with two solid starters often deliver lower-scoring outcomes, and the numbers here line up nicely for the under to hit.
Cleveland’s Parker Messick has been outstanding with a 2.68 ERA and 1.09 WHIP, keeping runs off the board consistently. Milwaukee’s Shane Drohan sits higher around 3.59, but both arms have shown the ability to limit damage in similar spots. Cleveland’s staff as a whole ranks among the better units for run prevention, and their road splits reflect that control. The Brewers can swing the bats at home, but they’ve been held in check more often against quality pitching,batting averages dip noticeably in these scenarios.
Weather looks playable with winds not overly favoring hitters, and the park factors at American Family Field don’t scream explosion in day games like this. Historical trends for road favorites or competitive dogs with sub-3.00 starters in June afternoon starts have leaned under at a solid rate, especially when both bullpens are rested and reliable. The regression I track for totals here (Expected Total = League Avg 8.4 - 0.65 × Starter ERA Gap - 0.22 × Park/Wind Adjustment + 0.15 × Offensive Recent Form) points comfortably below 7.5, giving this play a nice edge.
Trust the process on these, pitching edges compound in low-total spots.

My selection is on Czechia over South Africa at 12 noon et on Thursday.
Bettors are a little down on Czechia right now after its unimpressive tournament opening loss against South Korea. It does draw a favorable bounce-back matchup here, however, as it takes on an undermanned South African squad that comes off a lopsided defeat against host Mexico. South Africa is now winless across its last six matches. While Czechia is vulnerable at the back having conceded at least a goal in five straight contests, I'm not convinced South Africa can take advantage. Of note, Czechia has struck first in six of its last seven matches and if it can get off on its front foot again here, it should be able to control proceedings the rest of the way. Take Czechia (8*).

MLB Twins vs Rangers MLB Free Pick
The Angle(s): The Rangers send right-hander Jack Leiter (3-6, 4.86 ERA) to the mound. While his surface ERA looks inflated, Leiter's under-the-hood metrics, specifically a 4.24 xFIP, suggest he has suffered from sequencing bad luck and owns far better stuff than his basic line reflects. Minnesota counters with righty Joe Ryan (4-3, 3.17 ERA). Ryan has been superb on the year, but he has shown minor cracks in his armor recently, laboring to a 4.00 ERA over his last three starts while displaying minor localized command issues.
The Bet: Rangers +1½ (3%).
