Although Navy and Temple present their own challenges, both are sub-.500 teams the Tigers would be favored against, so they'll likely control their own destiny if they survive this trip to Tampa. The Bulls have had very little luck on the offensive side of the ball, come off a 20-17 loss at ECU and face a Florida product in Marcus Stokes, who played in the St. Augustine area at Nease before landing at West Florida. This will be a big game for him and one we expect Memphis will respond around him. Lay the points.

The Giants and Commanders square off in a matchup pitting teams that played to the NFL's lone tie in Week 5 in a game Washington QB Jayden Daniels and Washington's coaching staff flushed down the toilet. The teams are separated by three games, which makes this a must-win for the Commanders if they're going to get back in the race for the division title. The Cowboys are also an interested party, but with heavy rain expected, this is definitely a game we're thinking will wind up low-scoring. Ride the under.

The Falcons and Bengals should put on a show at the Santiago Bernabeu, so we're counting on both teams rising to the occasion. Cincinnati added some defensive talent but continues to play tight games, needing OT to beat Tennessee prior to arriving in Spain. Atlanta won't have Brian Robinson Jr., but Bijan Robinson will have a big day thanks to the extra touches. Ride the over as a top play.

Eyupspor is an abomination, entering this with a minus-21 goal differential and only two scores to write home about. Speaking of which, at home, the Eyupsultan district side did grab its only win (2-1 vs. Alanyaspor) but has been outscored 8-0 in the four other matches. Kocaelispor is 2-3 in away matches but has looked great behind Angola's Show and Honduras' Rigoberto Rivas.. We'll ride the moneyline .

Leipzig will look to pull off an upset at home and has to feel good about its chances given how well AIK Athens and Fenerbahce have looked in UCL play on Wednesday. Man City will feature Erling Haaland, who will likely have to match Norwegian teammate Antonio Musa in scoring. Ride the over as a top play.

Fenerbahce is in a team in transition, having named Emre Belozoglu its new manager but placing interim leader Dirk Kuyt in place for this contest. Having suffered three losses in nine matches in the Super Lig and looking sloppy defensively, this looks like a tough match to win since Antoni Iraola's squad is off to a disappointing start in the Prem coming off a 1-0 loss to Arsenal. The Reds are 3-0 in Champions League, beating Atletico Madrid, LASK Linz and Villarreal by a combined margin of 12-7, so we're going to bet that trend continues, riding the over on 3.5 goals.

AEK is up against a juggernaut with Jose Mourinho's Real Madrid in the Greek capital looking to add to its Champions League tally. Barcelona won its match 3-0 and I'm expecting we'll see a similar result from their arch rival in Athens. Lay the 1.5 goals.
