Lionel Messi Top Prop Bets
I get it, Lionel Messi is on the back nine of his career. Sure, he isn't dominating games like he used to and he's more likely to play for an MLS Championship than a Champions League title now. But don't tell him.
Messi has been extremely efficient in his play at the 2022 World Cup, which is why my Lionel Messi prop picks are backing a big game from him against the Netherlands on Friday.
Not only am I backing him to score, which he's done three times in four matches, but I'm picking Messi to win Man of the Match as well.
To this point in the World Cup, the Netherlands has been absolutely dominant. Not only are they unbeaten, but they've allowed just two goals. But, they haven't player anyone with close to as much talent as Argentina and they haven't had to defend a player as dynamic as Messi.
Wins over Senegal, Ecuador, Qatar and the United States aren't exactly moving the needle when it comes to Netherlands' results.
As for Messi, he's been fantastic.With goals against Saudi Arabia, Mexico and Australia, how can you not pick him to score on Friday.
The part I love about Messi to score is that he has three goals that ll came in different games. He didn't load up against a bad team and coast. Messi has scored in three of four games and looks to make it four in five on Friday.
I also think he has a good shot of winning Man of the Match, which I'm backing. But that's more dependant on Argentina winning.
At +175, there is too much value there to not back Messi to score any time.
