Favorable for both teams, the game of more productive football, Stuttgart has been playing attacking style football for many years, which at times can lead to open football. Bayern is completely opposed to this game, and with their current roster and additions, they are able to continue demonstrating a strong offensive game. In friendly matches, they may have saved some quick goals, but afterwards they would either let in weaker teams or become more passive. This is no longer a friendly match, but a fight for the cup.
The champions, Sadd Peru, did not change much during the offseason, they maintained their core, added a few players and should once again have one of the best offenses in the league and be one of the top contenders for the title. Their defense has never been outstanding, but they don't focus on it either. Qatar SC barely managed to stay in the league, so Peru took the opportunity to bring in a decent coach who places a lot of emphasis on the attack, added some attacking players and could be a very interesting team. However, their defense will most likely continue to be a problem like last season, which almost cost them their place in the league, as they failed to sign any strong defenders. It will be difficult for them to contain the attacking champions today, but they might surprise with a few goals.
Last season, the Eagles team surprised and won the cup, and in the first game they escaped defeat by scoring a last-second goal while playing in a minority. However, their success will not be long-lasting, and now, without their defender due to red cards, I believe they will surrender to Ajax. Ajax remains a very young and hungry team that is not known for its stability, but always looks good. Ajax is the clear favorite for this game and will live up to their status.
As the farmers' league begins, so does the ordinary domination of PSG. PSG looks very strong and dominates against top league teams, and against teams like Nantes they will have no trouble. The start of the season will leave the team in a good mindset and far from complacent, with a very favourable opponent. Last season, PSG failed to beat Nantes twice, but I believe that this season everything will be different, especially considering that they looked weak in their friendly against Nantes.
After losing the title last season, Duhail made important changes over the summer, including a new coach and signing with a more attacking profile strategist, who should reveal the team's composition better. They also acquired Polish player Piatek, Italian player Verrati, and some new players. After recovering from injuries, Brazilian player Edmilson became naturalized. Duhail proved its strength this week in a crucial Asian Champions League qualifier against Iran's Sepahan, defeating them 3-2. It's always tough to beat defensive Iranian clubs, but Duhail's attacking game looked solid. Today's opponent is of a lower level, so it's likely that Duhail will once again be able to showcase their full potential in attack. Their defense is not so strong, so Shahaniya will also have their chances. They too have a new coach from Spain, who has worked with the Spanish youth teams for several years, won Olympic medals, and also favors an attacking style of football. So it's unlikely that the guests will sit back and defend the whole time, they also have good attacking options. I hope for an attacking game and at least some goals.
Final, trophy. Of course, for one Englishman, it won't be easy to win, but let's trust that things will end up like this. Bayern's composition is still superior, although there are no more legends, but the new quick winger Diaz will show what he is capable of, and I think the offense will definitely not be asleep. As for Stuttgart, I wouldn't really say they have top players, when there are barely 2 somewhat serious ones. Of course, someone might prove me wrong, but I doubt it.
A friendly tournament final between the German team playing at home and the very well-performing Serbian team. Two teams with great offense, but their defense is not always top-notch. Two national teams made up of NBA players have to score points. The Germans have been greatly disappointed in their last two games in terms of offense, but I believe they will show stability and productivity against the Serbians.
S1 has been showing good form recently, playing for the VS ARC team. They have found some team chemistry and s1 has already started to solidify their place in the team, although they still feel quite toxic and the atmosphere is not the best. But with s1, it's hard for things to be any different and it's just normal practice. BB knows s1 and their former team mate, Boombl, who probably played a big role in s1's success and achieved good results together, etc. But there is a big difference when BB plays with two new players and the whole team is new, lacking in fire power. Meanwhile, s1 is showing their current form, grinding out many games, playing 10+ matches/day, streaming, and living for the game. I believe they are in good form and have plenty of experience, so they should be able to handle today's match easily. High odds are being offered.
So far, the championship has been very productive, of course there were some favorable matchups for overs, but overall some teams played very good basketball. In this case, Egypt stood out in offense, shooting at a very high percentage, while Mali also shot at a very good percentage against Uganda. Egypt is not typically an over team, and Uganda lacks offensive talent, but they are able to make a lot of effort.
I see Rybakina taking at least one set, Swiatek playing back, they are matched with Kalynskaja. But Rybakina, on the contrary, shows high class, putting Sabalenka in a tough position, a serious argument why she should at least take one set.
Although I lost last time, today I will win because the circumstances have changed. Spain will rest their leaders in these matches, and I believe the French can also surprise us. The last friendly match, we won't take anything from Peru, the most important thing is to avoid injuries. It should be an easy match, where the focus will be on attacking rather than defending.
The difference between the teams is clear, but it's frightening for Barca that Mallorca's goalkeeper won't have a single save this year when they had to withstand so many shots, which forced Barca to attack more until scoring that goal. Overall, Barca's aggressive high pressing forces frequent pressure and attacks, and I think many know how effective that pressure can be.
TheMongolz impressively returned against Aurora, but the big question is whether this shows TheMongolz's ability or how Aurora failed to close the match. Even on Dust2, Aurora was just a few points away from winning the map, and their 0:2 loss does not fully reflect what we saw in the match. TheMongolz don't inspire much confidence, even though they play decently, they are still not at the level of the more well-known Peru teams. Winning a map at the Major finale is the greatest achievement so far. Vitality also had a tough win against Liquid yesterday, but at the same time, they showed their character by winning the crucial rounds. I don't think TheMongolz will be underestimated and Vitality will play with concentration from the beginning.
Recently, the teams met in the finals, with spirit winning quite easily, even with a new player on their roster. From yesterday's game, it seems like nothing will change in terms of the team's form after his departure. Sometimes it even seems like he puts in extra effort to match KD with some dunk, but otherwise, the team demonstrates their top form with sh1, dunk, everyone shooting incredible shots, good reads, comebacks, etc.
Not long ago the teams met in the finals, where Spirit won easily with a new player on their roster. From yesterday's game it seems that they are not changing anything in their strategies, but their mood will change with his departure. Sometimes it even seems like he is trying to compete with someone like KD or Donk, but overall the team is demonstrating their peak form, with sh1, donk, and everyone shooting incredible shots, making good reads, comebacks, and so on.
The coefficient seems to not match reality because elsewhere it is significantly lower. That's how the Spanish champions had no serious opponents and dominated over Asian teams, but we can all see the form and strong team composition they have displayed in friendly matches. That's why the players from Barca are considered as potential winners of the Ballon d'Or. Good form, strong team composition and scoring goals were the key to their success in the previous season, so I believe that Barca will continue to dominate and play successfully, not to mention that last year they won 1-5 away from home and all friendly matches were won with a margin of 2 or more goals.
Turkey giants with Mourinho look very good, but also very productive because we have a lot of talent in attack, but a weak defense. Goztepe is a serious mid-table team, who were a tough nut to crack for top teams last season. This season, the team has strengthened even more and I believe they will look even better. Goals flow when these teams play because their attack is very good, but it's difficult to talk about their defense. Football itself is open, so I hope these matches will be productive.
Having started the season superbly, Benfica has already won the Super Cup and defeated the Nice club both away and at home in the Champions League. I don't think there's anything left to say about Estrella club, which Benfica has beaten 9 times in a row. Benfica looks very strong and dominant, and I don't see any chances for weaker teams in the league.

In this season, the Premier League favorites City, once again with a strong team, start their season against one of the weaker teams in the league, Wolves. Haaland is playing and scoring consistently, which is a huge plus for the City team, and their reinforcements also look good. Although Wolves have strengthened their team with some new players, City has also sold one of their most promising players, Nouri. With a strong defense and even stronger City team, I believe that they will win and keep a clean sheet.
