Max Verstappen is hunting his third consecutive victory of the term, and his first in Singapore, when he takes to the streets of Marina Bay.

Formula 1: Singapore Grand Prix

When: October 3 – October 5, 2025
Where: Marina Bay Street Circuit, Singapore
Where to Watch: Live on ESPN and F1 TV Pro
Where to Bet: With our Partnered Sportsbooks

A dismal performance from the papayas in Baku left a slight gap open in the Drivers’ Championship for Max Verstappen to climb back into. However, the Dutchman’s recent winning form is in jeopardy at the Singapore Grand Prix, a track where he’s never entered Victory Lane. The higher downforce demands of this circuit are better suited to the McLarens, although their P1 results would suggest otherwise, with Oscar Piastri clocking the fifth fastest time, just ahead of Lando Norris. Oscar rebounded in a heavily disrupted second session on Friday to stop the clock the fastest. 

Key Times (SST):

Saturday, October 4:
Practice #3: 5:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m.
Qualifying: 9:00 p.m. – 10:00 p.m.

Sunday, October 5:
Race: 8:00 p.m.

Expert Pick

It’s a tight call between Piastri and Lando Norris on the streets of Marina Bay, but we like “Last Lap Lando’s” chances of defending his crown. He lines up in Singapore at +206, potentially paying out $61.20 on a $20 bet. The Brit enters with five triumphs in the trunk this year, averaging 4.06 across all starts.

MotoGP: Indonesia

When: October 3 – October 5, 2025
Where: Pertamina Mandalika Circuit, Lombok, Indonesia
Where to Watch: Live on MotoGP VideoPass, FS1
Where to Bet: With our Partnered Sportsbooks

Marc Marquez is now a seven-time MotoGP Champion as he lands on the island of Lombok for the Indonesian GP. He still has plenty to race for with his own season-winning record on the line with five legs to go. Despite his strong showing this year of 11 victories, his teammate Francesco Bagnaia outshone him a week ago in Japan, crossing the line ahead of him by more than four seconds. Pecco is an eight-time podiumist in 2025 and clinched two checkered flags along the way.

Key Times (WITA):

Saturday, October 4:
Free Practice #2: 10:10 a.m. – 10:40 a.m.
Qualifying: 10:50 a.m. – 11:30 a.m.
Tissot Sprint: 3:00 p.m.

Sunday, October 5:
Race: 3:00 p.m.

Expert Pick

Marc Marquez is a sensible pick for Indonesia, given his dominant form this season, but we were really impressed by his colleague last weekend. Francesco Bagnaia greeted the checkered flag over four seconds ahead of Marc in Japan and returns to a venue where he was crowned champion in 2023. He wasn’t able to defend his title last year, but backed it up with a third-place return. Pecco enters the MotoGP Indonesia at +225, potentially paying out $65.00 if you wager $20.

PBR Teams: Outlaw Days

When: October 3 – October 5, 2025
Where: T-Mobile Center, Kansas City, MO
Where to Watch: Live on PBR App, Ridepass, Fox Nation, CW PBR
Where to Bet: With our Partnered Sportsbooks

Outlaw Days lie ahead of us in Kansas City this weekend for the penultimate round of the PBR Teams regular season. Our matchup of day 1 sees two bottom-of-the-table outfits battling it out to avoid the wooden spoon. The Nashville Stampede enters the bucking chute as the favorites to down the Oklahoma Wildcatters. Both sides have only registered ten triumphs this series, but the Wildcatters have the upper hand in previous matchups, leading the Stampede 2-1 this year.

Key Times (CDT):

Friday, October 3: 7:45 p.m.
Saturday, October 4: 6:45 p.m.
Saturday, October 5: 11:15 a.m.

Expert Pick

The Wildcatters open their account in Kansas City as the underdogs against the Nashville Stampede, but we fancy their chances. Despite their longer odds, the Oklahomans have won two of their last three matchups against the Tennessee fellows and sit one place higher on the log. Sportsbooks have the Wildcatters at +110 to prevail in the pre-event odds. That means a $20 bet stands to potentially payout $42.00.

BKFC 82: Newark

When: Saturday, October 4, 2025
Where: Prudential Center, Newark, NJ
Where to Watch: Live on DAZN
Where to Bet: With our Partnered Sportsbooks

After the promotion exhibited to the people of Manchester last week, BKFC returns to the States for the 82nd edition. It’s the first time the Championship moves to Newark, and the conversation is dominated by the King of Violence clash between Platinum Mike Perry and Jeremy Stephens. However, we’ve got our eyes on the co-main event where two Champions switch classes to debut in the women’s bantamweight division. We think the experienced Christine Ferea will prove too strong for Jessica Borga, who has made a name for herself, finishing fights early.

Key Times (EDT):

Fights Start: 6:00 p.m.

Expert Pick

Christine Ferea enters uncharted territory on Saturday, along with her opponent. Her career record of 10 victories, including eight on the trot, makes her our expert pick for her encounter with Jessica Borgas. “Misfit” greets New Jersey at -174, potentially paying out $31.49 when you bet $20.

Power Slap 15

When: Friday, October 3, 2025
Where: Fontainebleau Las Vegas, NV
Where to Watch: Live on YouTube
Where to Bet: With our Partnered Sportsbooks

Power Slap hits Las Vegas on Friday for its 15th outing with the middleweight title on the line. Brandon “The Butcher” Bordeaux is favored to retain the strap in his third meeting with Isaih Quinones. But we’re looking for value for our money, which Aaron Turner offers in his matchup with Nate Burnard. The latter is ranked higher than the underdog, but Burnard enters off a three-fight losing streak, while Turner is 2-1-0 in his PS career.

Key Times (EDT):

Fights Start: 9:00 p.m.

Expert Pick

Aaron “The Colossus” Turner takes on Nate Burnard as the underdog, but he’s coming off a win and has fought more in recent months. Turner faces the second-ranked heavyweight fighter at +139, potentially paying out $47.80 on a $20 bet.

World of Outlaws Late Models: Humboldt Showdown

When: Friday, October 3, 2025
Where: Humboldt Speedway, Humboldt, KS
Where to Watch: Live on DIRTVision
Where to Bet: With our Partnered Sportsbooks

We are nearing the end of the 2025 World of Outlaws Late Model series, and Bobby Pierce is in the driver’s seat heading into Humboldt Speedway. The favorite has accumulated 11 trips inside Victory Lane this campaign, more than any other driver on the grid. Four of those triumphs have arrived in his past six appearances, and he’s averaged 3.8 in his previous 10 starts. Nick Hoffman is tipped as the driver to challenge Pierce’s dominance, and while he has collected five checkered flags, he has battled to stay inside the top five at times throughout the campaign.

Key Times – Daily (CDT)

Pit Gates Open: 5:00 p.m. 
Hot Laps: 7:30 p.m. (Racing to follow)

Expert Pick

We’re playing it safe with Bobby Pierce in Kansas, based on his impeccable record in his past six appearances. The series leader had tasted glory four times in that period and claimed one runner-up. He also holds the best finishing average on the grid in the last five meetings, at 2.8. His odds are short, but fair at +130, offering a possible payday of $46,00 for a $20 stake.

World of Outlaws Sprint Cars: National Open Night #1

When: October 3 – October 4, 2025
Where: Williams Grove Speedway, Mechanicsburg, PA
Where to Watch: Live on DIRTVision
Where to Bet: With our Partnered Sportsbooks

It’s Pennsylvania versus the World of Outlaws sprint car contingent at the Williams Grove Speedway this weekend. David Gravel tops the odds sheet after clinching his 15th scalp of the season last weekend. But with all his genius, Gravel fell short at this venue earlier in the year, finishing runner-up to the local lad, Anthony Macri. We think Macri is worth a look if value is your priority, but Gravel is the gift that just keeps on giving to us this season. He’s stood on the rostrum in 80% of the last 10 races, averaging 3.4 in that period.

Key Times – Daily (EDT)

Pit Gates Open: TBD 
Hot Laps: TBD

Expert Pick

We were tempted by the local Anthony Macri at +929, given his past performance at this track and in-state this year. However, David Gravel continues to shine and arrives in Mechanicsburg with eight rostrums, including four wins in his previous 10 outings. He wins the race for our expert pick at +221 for the first race of the National Open, potentially offering a potential payout of $64.20 for a $20 bet.
