UFC Fight Night: Smith vs. Teixeira Betting Tips, Odds, and Preview

The pivotal light heavyweight contest between Anthony “Lionheart” Smith and Glover Teixeira is set to headline another exciting UFC Fight Night card.

The Octagon will once again make a rare midweek appearance, as Anthony Smith and Glover Teixeira face-off in a pivotal light heavyweight bout at UFC Fight Night: Smith vs. Teixeira. On the heels of an epic event last weekend, the top MMA organisation stages another card behind closed doors at the same VyStars Veterans Memorial Arena in Jacksonville, Florida, USA.

Aside from the main event, between Smith and Teixeira, UFC Fight Night 175 on 13 May 2020 will feature the heavyweight debut of Ovince Saint Preux as he battles grizzled veteran Ben Rothwell. Alexander Hernandez and Drew Dober, Ricky Simon and Ray Borg, and Karl Roberson and Marvin Vettori complete what looks to be a potentially thrilling main card.

Who to Bet on UFC Fight Night 175?

Betting on UFC Fight Night 175 is as easy as 1, 2, 3, as Ohmbet recently announced its new New Customer Offer. Fans — above the age of 18, of course — have to do is, first, register to unlock the offer and deposit; second, place their normal odds bets on either Anthony Smith or Glover Teixeira; then, cross their fingers and hope for the boosted odds to be in their favour. 

In terms of who to bet on the main and co-main event, it’s important to look into the other numbers of  the featured matchups. For the co-main event bout between Ovince Saint Preux and Ben Rothwell, it’s worth noting once more that the former will make his divisional debut against a heavyweight fixture in the latter — putting OSP in a significant 24.5-pound weight disadvantage.

The main event, on the other hand, will highlight two perennial light heavyweight contenders — coincidentally both former title challengers in their own right — in Anthony Smith and Glover Teixeira. On paper, they seem to matchup pretty well on practically every aspect of the fight, however, Teixeira’s a handful of months away from hitting 41 years of age, almost a whole decade older than Smith, so only time will tell if this affects certain facets of his fight game.

UFC Fight Night: Smith vs. Teixeira Betting Tips and Odds

The same oddsmakers favours Ricky Simon (1.57) and Marvin Vettori (1.55) in their matchup opposite Ray Borg (2.35) and Karl Roberson (2.45) — who missed the middleweight limit by 1.5 pounds — respectively. To complete the main card odds, it’s somewhat of a toss up between Drew Dober (1.85) and Alexander Hernandez (1.95), with both coming off impressive victories in their last bouts.
