2026 FIFA World Cup, Group Stage Rotation #225265/225266 ASA Free Play on UNDER 2 (-130) in Egypt vs Iran, Friday at 11 pm et - It is with good reason that this total was set so low and we expect a real grinder in this one. Based on the situational factors for this one it plays out to be a match with very little attacking. The focus is going to be on maintaining defensive structure and possession and keeping the pace of play slow. With the situational factors pointing to a mundane affair, a 1-0 final or even a 0-0 draw would not be a shock at all here. Iran is off an exceptional defensive effort in limiting Belgium in their most recent match. Egypt has allowed only 1 goal in each match so far and is fully capable of a clean sheet versus an Iran side that did not impress offensively versus Belgium. It all adds up to a low-scoring battle here. Free Play UNDER 2 -130 in Egypt/Iran

ASA WNBA play on Connecticut Sun +4.5 vs Washington Mystics, 7:30pm ET - The Sun are clearly one of the worst teams in the league with a 3-15 SU record and an average point differential of minus -8.4PPG but this is a favorable spot to back them as a home dog. Connecticut is coming off their best game of the season, a 92-63 win at home over the Chicago Sky. We expect that positive momentum to carry over to this game. Washington is coming off a heartbreaking 2-point loss to the Minnesota Lynx and may have a tough time getting back up for the Sun. Washington is the youngest team in the league and laying points on the road isn’t a regular thing as it’s happened just twice this season (1-1 ATS) with an average +/- of plus 1.1PPG. The line value on this game is obvious as these same two teams just met on this same court June 17th with the Sun being favored by -2.5-points. That’s a 6-point swing in the pointspread! Washington won that game by 7-points but the Sun had an unusually bad 3-point shooting night at 20%. A few more made 3’s and the Sun not only cover this game but get their 4th win of the season.
#906 ASA PLAY ON Milwaukee Brewers Run Line -1.5 (-125) over Chicago Cubs, Friday at 7:45 PM ET - The Brewers have won 7 of Misiorowski's last 9 starts and all 7 wins have been by a multi-run margin. Misiorowski has been nothing short of phenomenal during this stretch as he has allowed ZERO earned runs in 7 of the starts and in the other two he allowed just 1 earned run in one and 2 earned runs in the other! Complete and utter domination for the flame-throwing right-hander and he gives Milwaukee a huge edge over Colin Rea and the Cubs in this one. Chicago has been hot for an extended stretch now and they've won consistently for weeks in games that Rea does not start. It has been when he is on the mound that the Cubs have struggled for wins. Chicago is 1-7 in his last 8 starts. Rea did pitch better in his most recent start but that was at home. On the road this season his ERA is north of the 7.00 mark. In his two starts against the Brewers last season they hit .343 against him. Only 12 of Milwaukee's 49 wins this season came by a 1 run margin. Similarly, only 9 of the Cubs 37 losses this season came by a 1-run margin. All signs point to a home blowout here as Misiorowski gets right back into the win column here and continues his dominating form while Rea's road struggles resume and he gets pounded by the Brewers lineup here. The Brewers are on a 31-13 run including 4 straight wins and they stay red hot here. Lay the 1.5 runs with Milwaukee in early evening action Friday.
2026 FIFA World Cup, Group Stage: - #225261/225262 ASA PLAY ON Under 2.5 Goals (-130) – Cape Verde vs Saudi Arabia, Friday at 8 PM ET - Cape Verde has been one of the stories of this tournament thus far but Saudi Arabia also is still alive here in terms of qualifying to advance to the Round of 32. That being said, this sets up as a rather cagey encounter played out with a lot of emphasis on possession and playing a conservative match from an attacking standpoint. Saudi Arabia faced an angry Spain team last week and got beaten badly by a 4-0 count. However, their 1-1 draw with Uruguay was impressive and they proved they can play with a high quality opponent like that. As noted above, Cape Verde has been a surprise in this tournament but they certainly are not known as a juggernaut in terms of attacking capabilities. They had that scoreless draw with Spain which was ultra impressive from a defensive standpoint and they can certainly hold Saudi in check as well. However, we also look for a return to the defensively sound structure of Saudi Arabia that we saw in their 1-1 draw with Uruguay. Given all of the above, and with the stakes so high for this battle, a 1-0 final or 1-1 draw seems to not only be probable but likely! Take the Under here in the Cape Verde / Saudi Arabia match Friday evening.
SERVICE BIO
The owners of American Sports Analysts (ASAwins), Lee Kostroski & Mike Merlet, have a combined 50+ years in the sports betting industry. Both started with Doc’s Enterprises, Lee in the late 80’s and Mike in the early 90’s. After learning the handicapping trade from one of the oldest in the business, they started ASA Inc in 1997 and have been going strong ever since. They have been known throughout the industry for their success on BIG GAMES including their 10* Midwest Game of the Year. ASA is located in Madison, WI and a foundation of their handicapping prowess revolves around the heart of the country – especially the Big Ten.
ASAwins has appeared on numerous radio shows throughout the country as special expert football guests including Tampa, New Orleans, Madison, Milwaukee, Memphis, Las Vegas, and Denver just to name a few. They were also featured on the ESPN website with gaming writer Chad Millman during the 2011 season.
ASAwins handicapping methods have evolved through years of with hard work and research being the anchor of their success. Rather than implementing one specific strategy as many handicappers do, they intertwine many different philosophies when it comes to making football, basketball, hockey, and baseball selections. They utilize their massive database that goes back over 30 years and can give them in depth information on any situation you can think of when it comes to handicapping. That’s not where they stop, however. They also research stats and film each week to evaluate the upcoming match ups on the field along with speaking with their personal contacts throughout the country (especially in the Midwest). On top of that, they analyze each point spread (and their movements) comparing them with their own power ratings to find where an edge might be found. Lastly, their predictive analytics or math models predict the outcomes of games based solely on numbers and statistics that aren’t swayed by the human element. So, as you can see, just because a game may fall into a successful system or the scheduling looks good to go against or with a certain team, that doesn’t mean that ASA automatically uses it as a selection. It must go through their in-depth process with all things considered before they give it the ASA stamp of approval. Looking at games from all these angles gives ASA the best of all worlds when it comes to handicapping. Their handicapping theories have proven successful over the years which has them as one of the more tenured experts in the industry.
Lee & Mike at ASAwins have stood the test of time in an industry that makes it very tough to do so. Their 50+ years of experience will give you the WINNING EDGE you need. Sports wagering is an investment and it’s time you invest in the known commodity of ASAwins!
