Thursday card has a RARE UNDEFEATED Game 6 NBA Historical System and Another TOP WNBA Play. Soccer Comp Play below
The Thursday Comp play in Afternoon Soccer action is on Republic of Ireland at 2:45 eastern. We have to back the home tam here as Ireland has a strong home field and today they take on Qatar in a Friendly. Ireland has 5 wins and 3 draws from their last 8 here and there is a sizeable gulf in talent. Qatar has struggled of late and its very likely they will be the victim of a clean sheet here. Ireland may find the back of the net here more than once as they will likely have ball possession most of the game. In their last match they toyed with Grenada in a 5-0 blowout that wasnt even as close as the final score. In their only other meeting here vs Qatar, Ireland was a 4-0 winner and this one has a similar feel. Play on Ireland today. GL Rob V

My selection is on San Antonio minus the points over Oklahoma City at 8:30 pm et on Thursday.
This has had the makings of a seven-game series from the start and we'll naturally back the Spurs on Thursday as they return home looking to extend the series. San Antonio got off 92 field goal attempts in Game 5 on Tuesday but was unable to take advantage, knocking down only 37 in a double-digit loss. I'm confident we'll see the Spurs bounce back here, noting that they've endured just three ATS losing streaks dating back to January 22nd. Meanwhile, the Thunder, while certainly an elite team, have delivered only three ATS winning streaks since February 27th. While San Antonio has given up 122 or more points in three of five games in this series, I don't think their defensive play has been all that bad and we've already seen it flip the switch in a similar 'must-win' situation in Game 4 when it rolled to a 103-82 victory at home. Take San Antonio (8*).
