Eighth finals. In the first meeting, Colorado defeated Dallas by a landslide - 5:1. "The Stars" completely lost their composure at the end of the season - they lost seven consecutive matches. It seemed like they were saving their energy for the playoffs and would "shoot out" as soon as the time came. But perhaps the Texas club has some problems that they can't get rid of. It's been a while since the team played so poorly.

But the "Avalanche" took advantage of the situation and broke ahead in the series. Since it wasn't the first time this year that the "mountaineers" faced off against the "green team," why not continue the party? I choose a bold option: another crushing defeat for the hosts.

Quarterfinals. Colorado dominated their first meeting with Dallas by a score of 5-1. The "Stars" completely lost their momentum towards the end of the season, losing even their last seven matches. It seemed like they were saving their strength for the playoffs and would shine when the time came. But perhaps the Texas club has some issues that they cannot overcome. Their team has not been performing well for a while now.

And the "Avalanche" were able to take advantage of the situation and break away in the series. Since this was not the first time this year that the "mountaineers" beat the "greens," why not continue the tradition? I'm choosing a daring alternative: another crushing victory for the hosts.

Norwegian 3rd division - Group 6. Both teams have started the season well and are showing good attacking form. I hope this will continue in these matches, as neither team has a strong defense. Overall, both Sarpsborg reserves and Peru have been one of the most attacking and scoring/conceding teams in the league, and it seems that this won't change this year. Flint can fully join in this kind of play at home.

Al Ittihad earned points in the last round and the situation for the champions' title becomes more tense. At the moment, Al Hilal is winning the matches and trailing by only 1 point. The line-up for these matches is all the strongest players, with Benzema leading the front. The guests are not competing for anything, but their line-up is very attractive, especially in the attack with players like Wijnaldum and Vitinho. The guests are also aiming for an attacking style of football, with Wijnaldum playing in the front and Ekambi as additional attacker. A good and attacking game is expected, with opportunities to be taken advantage of.

Al Ittihad collected points in the last round and the situation for the championship title becomes more intense. Currently, Al Hilal is winning matches and the gap is only 1 point. The team's lineup for these matches includes all the strongest players, led by Benzema. The guests may not be fighting for anything in particular, but their lineup is particularly appealing, especially in attack with players like Wijnaldum and Vitinho. The guests are also prepared to play attacking football, with Wijnaldum leading the front line, and additional forward Ekambi in the starting lineup. A good and attacking game is expected, and the team must take advantage of any opportunities created.

I am watching the game with the Clippers, they lost the first game but I am waiting for them to bounce back. Already in the first game, I said that this team is the favorite for me in this series, and I am sticking to that thought and believe they will take the split in Denver tonight before heading back to our home arena.

Currently, both final duels ended with inconclusive results, Peru 2-1. Series tied at 1-1. And the fight moves to the city of Brno, where the hosts have been playing more prominently this season at home, if we don't count the last two matches against the Prague club. "Pardubice" will have a full attack today, as R. Cervenka returns to the team after having stomach problems and missing the first two games. So after two inconclusive matches, there must be at least one duel where the net is shaken for both teams.

At the moment, based on the current form of the teams, I believe the odds for Bodo team are a bit too high. They have shown impressive results in Europe, reaching the semi-finals when nobody believed they could. KWD team, from such a small town, has gone so far. They started their season confidently and have already secured third place in their league. I think they will also take third place in Peru. However, the season for Molde has started tragically, losing both matches without scoring a single goal. They did manage to win against a third league team in the Norway cup, but that's about it. Molde and Bodo are eternal rivals, always fighting for the top spots. But at the moment, I feel that Bodo is the stronger team and I am rooting for them in Peru.

Usually shoots 3 pointers with 33% accuracy. In the last 10 games, totaled under 8 times, often throwing only 2-3 3 pointers, so they must make unders approximately with 66% accuracy. Clippers are very solid in defense, so there should not be an overabundance of luxury or freedom to throw 3 pointers as usual.

In the first series, they scored 1/4 of 3-pointers, but overall they only contributed 21 points against the Knicks, with just 30 points in the last minutes on the court. In the second game, which they lost, the series hung by a thread, and they have to take on a leader role in the offense. Excluding the first game, this season they have played against each other 4 times and have scored: 36, 36, 29, 22 points. In all 4 games, they made at least 2 3-pointers.

Series score 0-3. The clear favorite is already known and I think today "Olomouc" will finish the series. The "Jihlava" arena is being reconstructed, so all matches are played at the "Olomouc" arena. The team has a strong defense and a reliable goalkeeper. In the three matches, "Jihlava" has not scored such a total even once, so it is difficult to expect it to happen today. Especially when the opponents mostly control the puck.

Girona can't do anything this season and they don't even dominate weak league teams at home, so it's not worth talking about their results. Betis is going through a renaissance and although their invincibility has slightly decreased in recent times, they still seem strong. Against a club like Girona, even at home, it's better to choose Betis and it's also exciting because the odds are, I believe, even too high for such an event.

England is welcoming the dead Tottenham at home for a match against the Nottingham football players fighting for the Champions League. We have already seen United dominate the Premier League, but both of these teams only have goals in the Europa League. Nottingham team has not been successful lately, but they play well and have a lot of motivation.

Translation: "The meeting will take place with teams playing attacking football, which bravely push forward. After finding out that Man City's superstar Haaland will not play in these matches, the chances of this bet have increased, as scoring a goal for any team is not counted as a strike towards the goal area, as it speaks about the shots that the goalkeeper can handle in the goal area. Therefore, there are not as high-quality attackers compared to Haaland's mastery to finish attacks with goals.
In the previous match between these teams, the bet was successful as Man City's goalkeeper saved 4 shots towards the goal area, while Aston Villa's goalkeeper saved even 5 shots.
So I am expecting a similar scenario in this match as well.

Knicks - Pistons
Knicks, based on talent, far surpass Detroit, giving -9 handicap which is too small for playing modern NBA basketball. The MSG arena will be a huge boost, plus a bet on the fact that the Pistons hit over 3PT in their last game, which may not happen in this match. The Knicks also won the last game by an 11-point margin. If they hit more precise 3PTs, I see the Knicks winning by a larger point difference.

Knicks - Pistons
In terms of talent, the Knicks are far ahead of Detroit. Giving a -9 handicap is too little when playing modern NBA basketball. The game at the MSG Arena will be a big push, and it's also a plus for the bet that in their last games, the Pistons scored over 3-pointers, which may not happen in this game. Also, the Knicks won their previous games against the Pistons by a margin of 11 points. If they have a better 3-point shooting accuracy, I see the Knicks winning by an even larger point difference.

A bet that has a clear value! I have no doubt that Jokic will achieve a double-double, considering he has an average of triple-doubles this season. This incredible stat shows that, in my eyes, Jokic is currently the best player in the league. So we get a coefficient of 3.75 for the Nuggets, who will also play at home which is a solid advantage.
In the first game, the Nuggets managed to dig themselves out of a potential loss and played a very good match. But what surprises me is that the Clippers played above their abilities and had a chance to close the game but failed to take advantage. Old-timer Harden played a superb match that took a lot of energy. However, for the second game, I believe that the Nuggets will secure the win because according to statistics, they were the better team throughout the game. I hope that a win in the first game will make it easier for them psychologically to approach the second match. Good luck to all who will be watching together 😁
