The morning line

EPL The marquee fixture is Manchester City heading to Selhurst Park to face Crystal Palace, with City installed as clear favorites at minus one-fifty after opening the season with a win while Palace are still searching for their first points. Selhurst Park is never an easy away day, so expect Palace to try to frustrate City with a well-organized shape and hope for a sitter or a lucky break rather than trading chances openly. If City's front line clicks with a few slick through balls, this could turn into a comfortable away win, but a shambolic defensive moment for either side could easily flip the script.

MLB The marquee matchup is Los Angeles Dodgers at Atlanta Braves, a genuine playoff-seeding clash between two of the National League's best clubs, with Atlanta a slight home favorite despite the Dodgers owning the better record. Keep an eye on the Milwaukee Brewers, who own the sport's top record at 82-51 and are heavy favorites over the New York Mets, a lineup that's been getting into starters' stuff all series. Also worth checking in on: the Astros-Yankees series sitting in a rain delay at Yankee Stadium, which could push a tired bullpen into extra work if it resumes late.

NFL The marquee matchup is the undefeated Pittsburgh Steelers and Buffalo Bills, with Buffalo favored by 2.5 and an over-under of 37.5 as both sides try to establish time of possession behind smashmouth run games. Keep an eye on Seattle at Kansas City later in the slate, where two winless teams are desperate to avoid an 0-3 hole and either offense could easily be stuck facing third-and-long all night. Also watch New Orleans at Dallas, where the Cowboys are favored by 2.5 and a Saints team that couldn't move the ball much last week will need the defense to bail them out if they want to cover.

WNBA Marquee game is Golden State Valkyries at New York Liberty, a near pick'em with the Liberty favored by just 2.5 as both clubs jockey for playoff seeding down the stretch. Also keep an eye on Connecticut Sun at Indiana Fever, where Caitlin Clark and company are favored by a whopping 16.5 and could put on an absolute clinic if the Sun can't buy a bucket early. Toronto Tempo heading into Las Vegas to face the defending-caliber Aces is a get-right spot for A'ja Wilson and crew to pile up buckets in the paint.
