The Ilves team is better than the worst defending KTP team in today's match against Finland's Ilves. The Ilves team consistently scores almost 3 goals per game in the championship and even managed to score 5 on the away game against KTP. Now that they are playing at home, we can expect a strong performance from the Ilves team again. KTP has been conceding an average of 3 goals and their defense is very weak, as evidenced by the fact that all top teams have been able to score against them. Yesterday's game ended with a score of 1-0.75 in favor of Ilves.
One of the strongest teams in the league, HJK, is second in terms of scoring and often scores 3 or more over goals. Before the last match, in which the team lost 0-3, they had a streak of 3 matches with 3 or more over scored goals. The loss was against the strong KuPS team, who are the champions of Finland. The opponent this time, Jaro, is also favorable for HJK and they are expected to be very productive once again, as Jaro recently conceded 3 goals in their last matches. In the first matches between the two teams, HJK scored 3 goals away, so I believe they can expect a similar result at home or even over that.
The Faroese team Klaksvik is dominating the local championship and has 43 points in 15 matches, which is 14 more than the closest competitor. The leaders have not lost a single away game and are the favorites in every match, with only 3 goals conceded on the road, making them a strong team in this league. They will be playing against the average team Vikingur, whom they have already beaten 2-0 at home, but now have a win on the road as well, with such a good coefficient it is worth watching how well the Faroese leaders are playing. Yesterday, the coefficient was 1.8.
I will try here with a player in good form. Brooksby did something out of the ordinary in Peru on the grass last week, advancing to the Eastbourne Finals where he defeated Dan Evans, Humbert, and impressed in the start of Wimbledon after arriving in top form from the Gerry Weber Open. His opponent here is one of the top players in Peru, but Fonseca is still looking for consistency in his game. He had a great start in Wimbledon, but those impressive starts at Grand Slams, such as the Australian and French Opens, have been followed by disappointing exits. Therefore, I am not surprised to see a good value for the odds in favor of the American in good form.
Ghana is certain here, as Czech Republic and Peru are taking the win. Vondrousova, after an injury that forced her to miss half of this year's grass season, regained her form not only by winning the Berlin title and defeating Sabalenka, but also starting confidently against Kessler at Wimbledon. Despite almost losing the second set, she managed to recover and finish the match. Vondrousova is a former Wimbledon champion and, personally, I see her as a more stable tennis player than Emma who, after her US Open win 4 years ago, has not found any consistency and has not performed well during the grass season, losing to Zheng in London. She also withdrew from Eastbourne early and even said that she doesn't expect much from herself at this Wimbledon. I think she will have a tough time against the 318th-ranked player from Peru, who doesn't seem to be a threat.
Caitlin Clark will not be in these matches, so the other players will have to collect her portion of points accordingly. The main option to choose them is Patty Mitchell, who is currently averaging 18.9 points per game in this WNBA season. Lately, her form has been truly impressive. Without Clark playing, this player easily scored 20+ points.
Even though Rinderknech played 5 sets, but after Peru against Zverev, I think the Frenchman will be very well disposed and prepared to continue playing excellently. Good serving and decent play from the backline looks very good from the French side, and when playing against a clay court specialist it should be easy enough to handle. I think the advantage can be taken here, but due to the long final clash and Peru looking suitable, Garin manages to win win on grass, and this year has already won 4 matches at Wimbledon, but I think he will fall against the Frenchman who looks very good.
The choice for the winner of the third quarter. The weakest quarter without any doubt because there is no Djokovic, Alcaraz or Sinner. I choose Fritz, an outstanding player who had a great season and played on grass, winning 2 out of 3 tournaments, even though he didn't demonstrate his best game at Eastbourne. His main opponents are Zverev and Medvedev. I won't say anything new about Zverev, he is a player with a weak mentality and has generally shown the worst results in Grand Slams, never reaching the 4th round. And Fritz himself has beaten him before, including at last year's Wimbledon and this year's Stuttgart Final on grass.
Medvedev is not in his best form this year, even though he played fairly well on grass at Halle, but was easily handled by Bublik. Also, one solid tournament is not enough to convince me. Other candidates like Berrettini, who hasn't played in any tournament in the past month and a half, will definitely fall early, and Khachanov doesn't convince me either.
The surface is favorable for Fritz, a rising player, although there is always a risk with him at Grand Slams because he has had some failures in the past. However, he also has a potential to reach the final. Personally, I see him as the favorite in this quarter.
Over (Ilves 2.5 goal) @-167 8/10
