Let’s take a look at all of the active division betting trends for UFC Vegas 19

UFC Heavyweight Division

The underdog in the UFC Heavyweight division has turned a small profit over the last 13 months, with the dog winning 20 of the last 47 bouts in this division, for a 42.6% win rate, and +2.63 units profit. Based on the betting trend, and using implied probability, the dog at heavyweight at any price of +135 or better is a bet worth making. Meanwhile, the Over has cashed in 53.2% of heavyweight bouts since January of 2020, going 25-22 for a slight profit of +0.23 units. Based on the betting trends, any ‘Over’ in this division at -114 or better is a +EV bet worth making.

Spivak vs Vanderaa: Based on the betting trend, there is value on Jared Vanderaa at the +195 price vs Sergey Spivak. Based on the betting trends, there is value on the ‘Under’ here at -106, as the ‘Over’ is priced out, beyond the buy price of what should be considered a +EV bet.

Arlovski vs Aspinall: Based on the betting trends there is value on Arlovski at the hefty plus price of 2-1 on the UFC odds board, while the ‘Under 1.5 rounds’ prop at +123 has a decent amount of value, considering 46.8% of the fights in this division have gone ‘Under’ over the last year.

Oleinik vs Daukaus: With Aleksei Oleinik coming is as the +170 underdog, there is some decent value on him at that price, while the ‘Over 1.5 Rounds’ prop sits at a hefty +165, which is well within the suggested buy price, making both plays +EV wagers worth making.

Blaydes vs Lewis: Derrick Lewis comes into this fight as the longshot +350 underdog, which seems like a solid price to back whether the ‘Black Beast’ wins or losses this fight. The ‘Over 1.5’ rounds prop was the real home run spot in this fight, opening at -135, but has now been bet up all the way to -210. You can still salvage some value on the ‘Over 2.5 rounds’ prop at -105.

UFC Men’s Featherweight Division

Based on the betting trend, and using implied probability, any ‘Over’ in this division at -256 or better is a bet worth making.

Minner vs Rosa: The ‘Over 1.5’ rounds prop has some serious value in this fight at -142, especially considering the market is expecting a quick finish between these two, while Minner is catching +151 odds on the moneyline, which just isn’t enough to get behind him if you plan on playing the buy prices on these division betting trends.
