- BetMGM bonus code CBSSPORTS gives new users $150 in bonus bets if their first bet wins, or up to $1,500 in bonus bets if their qualifying wager loses (offer varies by location).
- Argentina, led by Lionel Messi (8 tournament goals), faces Switzerland at 9 p.m. ET Saturday, with SportsLine's Martin Green backing Argentina to win + Over 1.5 total goals at +115 odds.
- Green noted that Lautaro Martínez and Julián Álvarez have "struggled to make an impact," and that Argentina's defense is "leaking goals," even as Messi is "really fired up right now."
- Max Holloway is backed at -325 odds to defeat Conor McGregor in UFC 329 on Paramount+ Saturday night, per SportsLine's Josh Nagel.
- McGregor, now 37, hasn't fought in five years; Nagel noted his last bout was a doctor's stoppage loss to Dustin Poirier in 2021 — but pushed back on the narrative that it was a fluky injury stoppage, writing that Poirier had McGregor's "number again" and was "seconds away" from a TKO stoppage.
- Holloway, a 34-year-old former featherweight champion, has lost two of his past three bouts, though Nagel believes he still has "high-level performances ahead."
Why it matters: BetMGM is offering up to $1,500 in bonus bets as a backstop on a losing first wager, materially lowering the downside for new users backing a heavy -325 favorite like Holloway on a five-year-layoff McGregor comeback at UFC 329.
