(Click here to open a PDF of the staff picks grid in a separate window.)
In the main event, [autotag]Derek Brunson[/autotag] (22-7 MMA, 13-5 UFC) takes on former welterweight title challenger [autotag]Darren Till[/autotag] (18-3-1 MMA, 6-3-1 UFC) in what could prove to be a key middleweight fight. Till is a fairly sizable favorite at -190 at Tipico, but our 13 editors, writers, radio hosts and videographers are siding with the underdog, Brunson, at a 9-4 clip.
In the co-feature, [autotag]Tom Aspinall[/autotag] (10-2 MMA, 3-0 UFC) meets [autotag]Serghei Spivac[/autotag] (13-2 MMA, 4-2 UFC) in a light heavyweight fight. Aspinall is the biggest favorite on the main card at -260, and he’s our only unanimous pick at 13-0.
Also on the main card, [autotag]Alex Morono[/autotag] (19-7 MMA, 8-4 UFC) fights [autotag]David Zawada[/autotag] (17-6 MMA, 1-3 UFC) at welterweight. Morono is a slight favorite at -140, and he’s got a big 11-2 lead in the picks from our staff members.
[autotag]Modestas Bukauskas[/autotag] (11-4 MMA, 1-2 UFC) takes on [autotag]Khalil Rountree[/autotag] (8-5 MMA, 4-5 UFC) in a light heavyweight bout. Bukauskas is the betting favorite at -160, but it’s underdog Rountree with a 9-4 lead from our pickers.
And to open the main card, [autotag]Paddy Pimblett[/autotag] (16-3 MMA, 0-0 UFC) makes his promotional debut at lightweight against [autotag]Luigi Vendramini[/autotag] (9-2 MMA, 1-2 UFC). Pimblett is a -165 favorite, and only two of our pickers are taking Vendramini in an upset.
