World club football odds, best bets, predictions: High-scoring Man City vs. Leicester match is part of expert's parlay that would pay almost 13-1

The battles at the top and bottom are growing more interesting -- and more urgent -- in the world's top football leagues. At this point, even lopsided matchups can have big implications. In the English Premier League, league leader Arsenal visit 14th-place West Ham United on Saturday 9 a.m. ET, while reigning champions Manchester City host 19th-place Leicester on Saturday at 12:30 p.m. Both games are critical, as City sit second in the table, six points behind the Gunners, but with a game in hand. Leicester are two points above last place but just five behind the Hammers. The titles in La Liga (Barcelona) and Serie A (Napoli) are virtually decided, but In the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich lead Dortmund by two points before they face bottom-five teams Saturday.

The game of the week should be in France's Ligue 1, where leader Paris Saint-Germain host second place Lens on Saturday at 3 p.m. ET. PSG are the defending champs and have a six-point lead with eight games left. They are -145 favorites at Caesars Sportsbook, with Lens +360 underdogs and a draw priced at +295. () 

All these games offer many opportunities for bettors, and the paydays can be even bigger if you combine your favorite picks into a parlay. Before you make any soccer picks or parlays, you really have to see what soccer expert Jim Holliman has to say.

Holliman has been a writer and editor for nearly 25 years and grew up with soccer in his blood. He played competitively through high school and has been following the game closely since the 1970's heyday of the North American Soccer League. His interest has expanded worldwide, and his betting approach is centered on crunching the numbers, but he sees the whole field and relies on his instinct.

The expert has been on a roll, and he NAILED his four-leg parlay last week for a payout of just under 11-1! He also was on a 15-7 run (+8.79) on Champions League entering this week, bringing a profit of nearly $900 for $100 bettors, and is 48-46-1 on his soccer article picks overall.

Holliman has scoured the soccer schedules for April 15-17 and has found value in four more best bets. If you combine these four picks into a parlay, you could earn a payout of almost 13-1 at Caesars Sportsbook! The first matchup in the parlay doesn't start until Saturday at 12:30 p.m ET, so there is plenty of time for you to make your soccer picks.

We can tell you that one pick Holliman loves is Both Teams to Score (-110) in the Manchester City vs. Leicester City match on Saturday (12:30 p.m. ET). City are the top-scoring team in the English Premier League behind Erling Haaland, and they're playing at home. But Leicester's Harvey Barnes and James Maddison also find way to score. The hosts will get their goals, but Holliman expects Leicester to make it exciting. 

Holliman has three other picks in his parlaythat would pay almost 13-1. They include a CONFIDENT plus-money best bet on the goal total in an Italian Serie A match that might surprise. If you combine these picks into a four-leg parlay, you can cash in HUGE! You ABSOLUTELY need to see the expert's predictions before you lock in any soccer picks or parlays of your own.
