In a bantamweight bout in the main event, Cory Sandhagen and Song Yadong meet Saturday at UFC Fight Night 210 at UFC’s APEX Facility in Las Vegas. Let’s analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the UFC Fight Night 210: Sandhagen vs. Song odds, with expert picks and predictions.
The fight can be viewed on ESPN+ with the prelims beginning at 4 p.m. ET and the main card at 7 p.m. ET.
The last time we saw Sandhagen, he was leaving the octagon at UFC 267 on the short end of a unanimous decision against Petr Yan, losing the interim welterweight championship bout. He is hungry to get back on track and get himself into position for a shot at the strap again.
The favorite Sandhagen takes the walk with a 3-inch advantage in both height and reach over his counterpart Song. He also holds a 6.42-to-4.92 significant strikes landed per minute advantage while landing 48.58% of those shots.
While Song is a little more accurate in takedowns at 42.86-to-33.33%, Sandhagen has a slight edge in submission average.
Song hasn’t needed a strong ground game lately, though. His last 2 fights have resulted in KO/TKO wins, including a 1st-round knockout of Marlon Moraes last time out in mid-March. While 4 of his last 6 bouts have gone the distance, as mentioned, his previous 2 have been stoppage wins.

UFC Fight Night 210 Sandhagen vs. Song picks and predictions
Records: Sandhagen (14-4-0) | Song (19-6-1)
Fight result (2-way line or money line)
Sandhagen (-200) is a good bet to outlast Song in this matchup, but risking 2 times your potential return in what should be a close fight is just too expensive.
Instead, let’s get a little more specific. SANDHAGEN BY POINTS (+107) is a much better play. He has the physical advantage and will be able to bounce in and out, using his reach advantage to keep Song away. Song has devastating punching ability, and he has 2 straight KO/TKO wins. Sandhagen will be working all night to keep him at a distance, picking and choosing his spots.
Over/Under (O/U)
OVER 4.5 ROUNDS (-180) is a bit of a steep price, but worth a look. Song has gone the distance in 4 of his past 6 bouts, while Sandhagen has needed the judges to determine a winner in each of his previous 2 outings. YES (-170): FIGHT TO GO THE DISTANCE is also not priced terribly out of line.
