Biggest line gaps across the books
21 books polled Sun 4:05 PM UTCLine arbitrage
A line arbitrage is the same game priced two ways at two books, so a bet on each side pays whatever happens; a middle is the version where the numbers differ and a narrow result pays both.
Live count loading from the last poll.
NO +2.5 -105 at Fanatics and
MIN -1 -125 at BetOnline.ag
MIN wins by 1 or 2 and both tickets cash (a push on one is a refund); any other result, one wins and one loses.
