The Paris team is currently struggling against serious centers, as they have been scoring a high number of attacks and the larger people of Paris are not strong enough. In recent matches, Efeso Poirier took 11 shots, Zvezda Bolomboy 15, and Petrusev 7, while Barsos Hernangomez took 10 shots (usually 3-4). Today, they will face off against Partizan's fighter for the ball, T.Jones. The advantage is that they are playing at home, where their energy levels will be even higher. Wishing them success.
Finally, Na City lit up and had a goal fiesta in the last match, beating Ipswich 6-0. Despite the failure against Brentford, it seems that they have started to pick up the pace. These upcoming matches are crucial because our unfortunate loss to Peru has pushed us down to almost 24th place. PSG, like last season, looks good, but their league is not strong and their lack of experience is noticeable in the Champions League. They struggle against stronger teams and I believe it is not just because they are a young team, but also because they are not as strong as they were in previous seasons. This upcoming match is also important, but I think the pressure will affect them more against a veteran team, who usually performs best in these types of matches. It is worth taking City as the underdog.
Both teams have two losses against Peru and Serbia each. Yesterday's match for survival was crucial for Iceland and they showed their weakness by wasting their three-goal advantage in the final period. Based on statistics, the team is currently behind all the others. The Belgians are strong enough to prove their superiority against their opponents and fight for the bronze medal.
The doubts team has been in poor form lately, but their abilities are still quite similar. They caught a good streak in Milan and can confidently compete against any opponent, as is customary in the Euroleague. Efes always looks strong at home, but they have suffered some defeats in their recent Euroleague matches there, so there is hope for Milano. The club is approaching the game with a serious mindset and shouldn't have much to lose.
Perhaps at home in the Italian league, Virtus is particularly strong, but when facing Euroleague's top teams, the picture is quite different. Although Monaco cannot avoid mistakes, Virtus, led by Clyburn, doesn't have much to offer, so it's difficult to see any serious resistance from the Italians because Monaco is currently too strong and needs to recover after periods of losses.
In the Euroleague regular season, Kaunas Žalgiris will defeat Alba, Asvel, and Paris clubs (2024-2025 season) at home. This is a very interesting offer. Last season, Žalgiris was defeated by the bottom teams and lacked consistency. This season, the team has been put together well and it is a must-win to compete for a top 10 spot against these teams at home. All three teams will most likely share the final three places in the standings. The lineup for all three teams looks weak, with ASVEL possibly being slightly better, but they also have many issues.
Schedule:
Žalgiris - ASVEL 2024-12-20
Žalgiris - Alba 2025-02-04
Žalgiris - Paris 2025-03-13
But the German league has a long-term offer. Betting on Dortmund to win the league excluding the Bayern team is a good option. After the previous season, there are questions about how Bayer will perform, as often after a great season, teams struggle. The bet is not bad, especially because Bayern is not included. Dortmund is the second-best team in the league and has shown good results since 2018/2019, even finishing 2nd place 4 times. With such odds, I believe it is worth a try.
However, the long-term offer of the French league
is very solid and no longer the most solid French club Monaco, after PSG of course.
Since the 20/21 season, Monaco has only missed the top 3 once, so I believe this coefficient is very high, especially considering Monaco's strong team. PSG is no longer an unbeatable force, so I see Monaco as their main competitors, especially for the top 3 spot. Monaco has retained almost the entire team, which is young and has played together, so I expect another good season from them.
I don't see much chance that Lonnie won't stay with Žalgiris this season. The trade deadline is on February 6th, and the NBA regular season ends on April 13th. It doesn't make sense to go to the NBA for just two months, unless they offer a long-term contract, but the chances of that are very slim. The better option to get a long-term contract is still in the summer.
Atletico Madrid (win Atletico Madrid neįskaitant Real ir Barcelona) @1.720 8/10
The long-term offer of La Liga is 7bets, betting that Atletico will be champions, excluding the clubs of Real and Barcelona. The preparation in friendly matches has been very good and several players have been bought, with high goals set for the season. Other clubs are not able to compete with Atletico, even though they may be seen as competitors, as Atletico is clearly more capable. Since the 2011/2012 season, this bet has been won and only in the last season, the Girona club surpassed it, but they will most likely not be able to repeat their success due to selling most of their players and having a weaker team. Therefore, Atletico is the only real option for this bet.
