UFC Edmonton Parlay Picks for Saturday, October 17
UFC Fight Night returns to Edmonton on Saturday with Joaquin Buckley facing Mike Malott in a five-round welterweight main event at Rogers Place.
The card also features Erin Blanchfield against Jasmine Jasudavicius in the women's flyweight co-main event, along with matchups across the lightweight, middleweight, bantamweight and heavyweight divisions.
UFC parlays can turn multiple fight predictions into a larger payout, but adding legs simply to increase the odds is rarely a good reason to make a bet. Each selection should first make sense as an individual wager before it becomes part of a multi-fight ticket.
Our UFC parlay analysis starts with our UFC picks and predictions for the individual fights. From there, we identify the strongest selections that can be combined without forcing weak favorites or markets that do not match the underlying fight analysis.
This Weekend's UFC Parlay Outlook
One current UFC Edmonton play already stands out on the card:
- Erin Blanchfield by Decision (-145) vs Jasmine Jasudavicius
Blanchfield and Jasudavicius are both comfortable wrestling, which could make extended grappling exchanges more competitive than Blanchfield's straight moneyline suggests. Blanchfield, however, has the stronger combination of pace, positional control and striking volume if the wrestling begins to neutralize itself.
Jasudavicius has also shown enough durability to make a decision outcome more attractive than simply assuming Blanchfield finds a finish.
That makes Blanchfield by decision a potential building block for a UFC Edmonton parlay.
The important word is building block.
A parlay should not be completed by attaching another favorite simply because the first selection needs a partner. We prefer to wait for another standalone wager with a strong matchup case and acceptable price rather than manufacture a multi-fight slip from the shortest moneylines on the board.
How We Build UFC Parlays
The best UFC parlays begin with individual fight analysis.
Before adding any selection to a ticket, we consider:
- Recent form and level of opposition
- Striking and defensive matchup
- Wrestling and takedown defense
- Submission threats and positional grappling
- Cardio and durability
- Three-round versus five-round format
- Injuries, layoffs and short-notice replacements
- Current odds and meaningful line movement
- Whether the selected market actually matches the predicted fight script
A fighter being heavily favored does not automatically make that fighter a strong parlay leg.
The question is whether the favorite's most likely path to victory is reliable enough to justify adding that price to a multi-fight wager.
Two-Leg vs Three-Leg UFC Parlays
Adding another leg always increases the potential payout, but it also creates another way for the entire ticket to lose.
That is why two-leg and three-leg UFC parlays are generally easier to justify than five- or six-fight tickets built around every favorite on the card.
A two-leg parlay allows bettors to combine two strong opinions without taking unnecessary exposure across half the event.
Three-leg parlays can still make sense when the card offers several independently strong positions, but the third selection should earn its place rather than being added simply to push the payout above plus money.
Should Heavy UFC Favorites Be Used in Parlays?
One of the most common UFC parlay strategies is combining several large moneyline favorites.
That can make an individual -300 or -400 favorite look more attractive on the final ticket, but a shorter combined price does not eliminate the risk of the original wager.
MMA carries unusual variance.
A fighter can be controlling a bout and still lose through a submission, knockdown, cut, foul or single scramble. That makes blindly stacking large favorites dangerous even when each fighter is more likely than not to win.
Instead, evaluate why the favorite is favored.
A dominant grappler facing an opponent with persistent takedown-defense problems may offer a more dependable parlay profile than a similarly priced striker whose fights routinely contain high-variance exchanges.
Using UFC Props in Parlays
Moneylines are not the only markets that can be used in UFC parlays.
Our UFC prop picks can include markets such as:
- Fight goes the distance
- Fight does not go the distance
- Over or Under a round total
- Fighter by decision
- Fighter by KO/TKO
- Fighter by submission
Props can sometimes produce a better parlay leg when the straight moneyline is too expensive.
The important part is consistency.
If the fight analysis projects a long, competitive matchup, pairing an Over or decision prop with that prediction can make sense. If the handicap depends on early finishing danger, a distance-based wager would contradict the same thesis.
Each leg should reflect how we actually expect the fight to unfold.
UFC Parlay Odds and Line Movement
Parlay prices change whenever one of the individual legs moves.
That means a ticket built early in fight week may offer a significantly different return by Saturday.
UFC lines can react to:
- Weigh-in results
- Injury information
- Late opponent replacements
- Market movement on individual fighters
- Changes to the fight card
Before placing a multi-fight ticket, check the current price of every leg rather than relying on odds quoted earlier in the week.
Our UFC odds and lines coverage can help track the latest numbers across the card.
Avoid These UFC Parlay Mistakes
The biggest mistake is treating a parlay as a way to make bad prices look good.
Combining several -300 favorites does not automatically create value simply because the final payout reaches plus money.
Other common mistakes include:
- Adding a weak leg only to increase the payout
- Using every favorite on the main card
- Ignoring late card changes
- Parlaying a pick after its individual price has already moved too far
- Using props that contradict the predicted fight script
- Building too many legs into one ticket
The cleanest UFC parlays are usually built from a small number of wagers that would still be defensible on their own.

Our approach to parlays is simple: start with strong individual fight predictions, combine only the selections that still make sense at the current price and avoid adding unnecessary legs simply to chase a larger payout.
When a card produces multiple qualifying wagers, those selections can become a two-leg or three-leg UFC parlay.
When it does not, forcing one is not an upgrade.
