Top Soccer Betting Picks of the Week – July 30th Edition

A little later this week, calendars across the world will flip on over to the month of August, which means that the start of the major European domestic soccer leagues is inching ever closer. Until then, we have several big-time exhibition games to keep us going regards the Soccer Betting action, as well as the qualifying stages of the major European tournaments. This week will also deliver a treat for soccer fans in the US, as the MLS will host its annual All-Star Game in midweek. The leagues may not yet have started, but as always in the world of soccer, there is a lot going on. Let’s take a quick look at some of the best games for the coming week, including the latest and better soccer odds.

Manchester United vs Real Madrid – Tuesday

• Soccer Betting Odds: Real Madrid -162 / Manchester United +394 / Draw +346

As exhibition games go, they don’t come much bigger than this one, although some of the shine has been taken off with the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo to Juventus. It has been a bit of a disaster trip to the US for Manchester United, as they have not looked good at all, losing 4-1 in their last outing against Liverpool. In fairness, though, many of the names of the field are not that well known, as injury and vacation time for World Cup players has left United a little short. Real Madrid is trying to get used to life without CR7 and will use this one to continue to test out new systems. Score Prediction: Manchester United 1 – Real Madrid 2

Arsenal vs Chelsea – Wednesday

• Soccer Betting Odds: Arsenal +140 / Chelsea +182 / Draw +263

It doesn’t matter whether it’s a Premier League game or an exhibition match like this one, these are two teams that have nothing but disdain for one another. It is going to be an interesting season for both teams, as they are each coming in with a new manager in place. For Chelsea, it is more of a rebuilding effort that is in place, as word is that the moves in and out of Stamford Bridge are not yet done. Arsenal will be looking at life after Arsene Wenger and will be hoping that new management means new and better results. Score Prediction: Arsenals 2 – Chelsea 2

MLS All-Stars vs Juventus – Wednesday

• Soccer Betting Odds: TBA

We are sure to have a rocking crowd for this one, as the Mercedes Benz Stadium usually has upwards of 70,000 people on hand for every Atlanta United game. Many in attendance here, though, will be hoping for a glimpse of Cristiano Ronaldo in his new team colors, although it remains to be seen if he will actually see any playing time. While Juventus have the more talented squad, the MLS stars are all in mid-season form at this point, so I think we are in for a competitive match here. Score Prediction: MLS All-Stars 2 – Juventus 1

West Bromwich Albion vs Bolton – Saturday

• Soccer Betting Odds: West Bromwich -208 / Bolton +645 / Draw +325

While we still need to wait a little longer for Premier League action to kick-off, fans of the English game will be pleased to know that the Championship gets started this weekend. One of the better-looking games on Saturday sees newly relegated West Brom open up at home against Bolton. It will be strange seeing the Albion in a lower division after so many years in the top flight, and they will be looking to bounce straight back up this season. Not an easy start for them, but I think they get the win. Score Prediction: West Bromwich Albion 2 – Bolton 0
