Memorial Day weekend betting guide

Memorial Day weekend is synonymous with parades, picnics and plenty of action from the wide world of sports. We’ve got you covered with everything you need to watch and what you can bet on to make this holiday weekend one to remember.

Then, in the afternoon, there’s the UEFA Champions League finale pitting Liverpool against Real Madrid, as well as some WNBA action on ABC. Our attention then shifts to the Big Apple for a big night, with the Rangers and Hurricanes duking it out in Game 6 of their NHL playoff series in Madison Square Garden, while over at Barclays Center, it will be Gervonta Davis vs. Rolando Romero in a WBA lightweight bout.

Got it? Good. Here’s what to watch and what to bet this weekend.
