Over/Under Pick: Aston Villa Over 2½ (+120)

Aston Villa’s attacking unit is led by Ollie Watkins, who has scored nine goals. Watkins is followed by Leon Bailey, Douglas Luiz and John McGinn with five. And I haven’t even mentioned Jacob Ramsey, Moussa Diaby or Nicolo Zaniolo. Collectively, the Villagers have scored three or more goals in six of their previous nine games at home and have scored 40 goals in total. Only Manchester City has scored more with 43. Waste no time and include Aston Villa over 2½ goals in your soccer picks.

Handicap Pick: Aston Villa -1½ (+102)

Again, we’re talking about a team with talent to spare that’s also upset. As if that weren’t enough, the Villagers remain unbeaten when playing at Villa Park, where they even managed to defeat Manchester City. Finally, six of their eight victories at home were by two or more goals. It’s going to be a very long morning for Burnley.

Soccer Player Props Pick: John McGinn Anytime Goalscorer (+260)

Yes, Ollie Watkins is the team’s top scorer and will probably score, but he’s offering a -110 price. On the other hand, second top scorer John McGinn offers a +260 price. McGinn’s last two goals were against Manchester United and Arsenal, two teams much better than Burnley.

Overall, we’re talking about an extremely talented player. In fact, no disrespect for Villa, but I can see him playing for a powerhouse starting next season.
