With such a serve, Zverev should definitely take at least a set. Alcaraz has gained excellent form, but Zverev deserves respect and will surely fight. I have been watching both since the start of the tournament, so I think Zverev will struggle with defense + he is good at strategizing and adjusting the pace, which will provoke mistakes. This game tactic will allow him to earn a little, but it is stable.

Although Atletico team is currently not fighting for the league title, trailing 8 and 7 points behind the leaders, they are always close and their strength is felt. They have a match against one of the underdogs, Levante, who are often defeated by Atletico's strong defense. Atletico, who have one of the best defenses in the league, score many goals and are very capable with long and solid passes. Although Levante team has been successful recently, when it comes time to play against top Spanish teams, losses are unavoidable for them.

Although the stick shot and Bayern's dominance ended with Germany's impressive streak, after a cold shower, the Bayern team must once again dominate Germany. The super, well-playing champion strikes everyone and scores a lot, and against underdogs and league newcomers, we can only expect a secure victory. This is how the matches went after the Netherlands and the away game, but there is no chance for Hamburg, who were crushed 5-0 away. Bayern is playing too well and the opponent is too weak, so the victory for Peru must be secured, as usual this season from Bayern's side.

I will try to predict the outcome for tonight. Yes, Alcaraz looks beastly so far, but players who have a strong serve often struggle. Against Paul, it was tough (7-6, 6-4, 7-5). On the other hand, Zverev is already a different beast. He's been making a strong impression at the beginning of the season with an aggressive and confident game, a reliable serve, and he seems to have added more confidence and desire to play. The head-to-head record is 6-6, but Zverev should at least win a set, and four sets should be enough for him.

WTA Manila, hard..

WTA (Women's Tennis Association) Manila, hard surface.

The houses sit at the very bottom, with Besiktas jumping to first place in case of a tie. But Buyukcekmece isn't as hopeless as the tournament table suggests. Most losses occurred in the very end of the matches. They will have almost a week of rest, while Besiktas struggles on two fronts every three days. At home, Buyukcekmece puts up a fight for everyone. I don't see any losses by double-digit difference.

Having won at home, I believe Virtus also faced a serious challenge from the Monaco team during their away game. The non-salaried Monaco basketball players do not seem to be doing very well and after two losses in Euroleague, we will see how they look here. Virtus also lost both Euroleague games, but this Italian team has a lot of potential and looks very interesting. Knowing the current situation and how everything ended in Italy, I think they have a positive outlook.

Another case when two good and very powerful attacking teams meet each other. In this season, Euroleague is very productive and it shows when 9 and 13 teams in the league score an average of 87 and 86 points per game. Zvezda with 6 wins in a row and even the last 5 games were more productive than the given line. Dubai's results are also solid and the games at home and Zvezda's were scored 188 points, so we can expect high scoring from Serbia as well.

PAO still without Nunn, Holmes, who has had stomach issues, is taking breaks with the team. Osman also takes breaks, but he doesn't seem to be 100% healthy. ASVEL is not a poor team when it comes to covering this season's tricks; their numbers are higher than 50%. They are able to stand up against many of the top Euroleague teams at home, but the problem is maintaining stability throughout all the games. PAO continues to struggle without Nunn. ASVEL has managed to handle the proposed handicap at home or play equally in 10 out of 13 games.

The Lens club, fighting for first place with PSG, looks impressively good at home this season. 8 wins out of 9 at home and even 9 wins in a row show the strength of Lens when playing at home. The opponents are not standing out and are one of the worst away teams in the league. As Lens does not participate in Europe, they can prepare for each game at 100% and have already celebrated a win away against Havre, which they should aim for at home now.

Finally, Lazio, who are undergoing a very poor stretch at home, must celebrate at the Peruvian home stadium, and when better to do so than against one of the weakest teams in the league, Genoa. The fact that Lazio have won 5 out of their last 6 matches against Genoa and have only lost 1 out of their last 7 home matches against them shows that they are a very favorable team. Genoa is one of the worst away teams in the league, so although their form is not impressive, Lazio, with their level and capabilities, should not have a long losing streak, especially at home, where their odds are quite solid.

I would say that Pegula is being underestimated too much here, of course Rybakina is a better player realistically in this tournament, with more power, but I was thinking the odds would be around 2.1-2.2 for her. With such odds, it creates a good value bet. Pegula is known for her great stability and high technical skills, she can move Rybakina around the court and with her current form, she is better than her opponent. It will depend a lot on how Rybakina serves, also considering that she has a weaker backhand, which Pegula should take advantage of with her movement and quick preparation for shots. Rybakina has a strong serve and hits powerful winners, but Pegula is good at pushing her opponents to make mistakes. Their head-to-head record is 3:3, with Rybakina winning the last two matches, which is another advantage for the bet. The only downside is that Pegula tends to struggle in the later stages of tournaments, but on the other hand, since 2025 she has been in great form and doesn't give up easily, playing multiple three-set matches and even winning four-set matches, showing her great endurance. Rybakina is also in good form, so it should be a close match.

I would say that Pegula is too underestimated here, of course Rybakina is better in reality in this tournament, has more power, but for Pegula I thought the odds would be around 2.1-2.2. With such odds, it could be a good value bet.
Pegula is known for her great stability and high technical skills, she can handle all kinds of game styles against Rybakina. Plus, Pegula is currently in better form. It will greatly depend on how Rybakina's serves go, and also Rybakina struggles with her weak backhand, which Pegula should take advantage of. Pegula is also good at provoking errors from her opponents.
Their head-to-head record is tied at 3:3 and Rybakina won the last two matches, which is another advantage for this bet. However, the minus is that Pegula tends to struggle in the later stages of tournaments, though on the other hand, she had a great form since 2025 and doesn't easily give up, playing several three-set matches, even winning four consecutive three-set matches in some tournaments, showing her great endurance. Rybakina is also in good form, so it should be a close and interesting match.

Pauliukevičius UTMA crushes all of his opponents with explosive force. Score 4-0, all of Peru is confident in knockouts, with great strength and aggression.

Although Šalkovskij's score 2-1 is not bad, especially considering the loss to Dirksčius, it still doesn't come close to what Pauliukevičius demonstrates. The psychological handicap is also clearly in favor of Ignas. The incident during the joint interview, when he hit Šalkovskij in the face, seems to serve him even better - it's clear that Šalkovskij is morally affected.

No matter how much Edvinas repeats that he is completely relaxed and not making a big deal out of his opponent, it's obvious that it's the opposite. This is not a healthy sports anger, but a nervous anger caused by fear. In one interview, Šalkovskij even said that he is going into the fight to "enjoy" it, and whatever happens - happens, and life won't end if he loses. Such attitude and talking about the possibility of losing, especially before a fight against someone like Pauliukevičius, will definitely not help him win. On the contrary.

Meanwhile, Pauliukevičius looks completely tension-free, but let's hope he will control his wild aggression before the fight. I understand that the odds for this bet aren't high, but they're still not bad for this event. I see no real chances for Šalkovskij to win - it's like a train against a muscle car. Both are tough, but the outcome is clear. Even the notorious Dirkstys, while being in the same studio with Pauliukevičius, shows respect and doesn't hesitate to acknowledge his strength.

Pauliukevičius may not be the brightest UTMA fighter, but the fight won't be played like a game of chess. And he has no shortage of aggression, strength, and self-confidence. The home arena and fans won't help Šalkovskij either, in fact, it may only strengthen Pauliukevičius' sports drive. Most importantly, "wanna be Tyson" won't knock out his opponent's ear or arm in the ring 😁.
