I will take a pair of Barnes' bets from these matches, the double-double and Pts+Rebs Over bets. Barnes historically plays very well against the Lakers, making them one of his favorite opponents. He has averaged 24 PPG and 11 RPG in 6 games against this franchise. The Lakers team is one of those opponents that players always try harder against, but this season, it is even more possible to play well against them as they do not have a strong defensive team. Barnes could potentially dominate, especially since the Lakers lack a strong front line and overall are a weak team. His average for PTS REBS Total is 28.5 in the 6 games against the Lakers (34, 29, 41, 30, 48 and 30 in the past meetings). As for the double-double, there is also potential for Barnes to achieve it, along with assists, as he is a good playmaker.

I will take a pair of Barnes' bets from these games, a double double and Pts+Rebs Over. Barnes historically plays very well against the Lakers, with 24 PPG and 11 RPG in 6 games against this franchise. The Lakers team is one of the most challenging opponents in his career, so Barnes tends to perform better against them. This season, there is an even greater potential for him to excel, as the team's defense is not very strong and Barnes can easily dominate. In his 6 previous games against the Lakers, he has averaged a total of 28.5 points and rebounds (34, 29, 41, 30, 48 and 30). There is also potential for him to achieve a double double with assists, as he is a good playmaker.

Both players do not show much in Grand Slam tournaments so far, mostly in qualifying rounds or first stages, but Klimovicova Linda, a 21-year-old from Poland, is just starting to step into Grand Slam tournaments. She has a very good serve and a lot of strength, so if she gets a better coach who can push her a little in her mind, she could greatly improve her WTA ranking. She unexpectedly beat experienced player Minnen 2-0, while her 25-year-old opponent, F. Jones, did not finish her match at the Auckland tournament last week due to an injury, and also did not finish her last tournament at the end of last year, so it is unclear what form she will be in.

Hunter Storm, a 31-year-old from Australia, is a very good fighter. She used to look great on hard courts, but after a 2024 injury, she played less in the last few years and her game level dropped. However, the acquisition of Radivojevic and Townsend in the last two sets allows hope that with some form, she will perform even better, especially with the support of her own fans. On the other hand, 23-year-old Spanish player Bouzas Maneiro Jessica's stability is also not lacking, especially since her main surface is clay. So I believe Hunter has a chance here.

Hunter Storm, 31 years old, is a very good fighter from the south. She used to perform well on hard surfaces, but after a injury in 2024, she played less in recent years and her game level dropped. However, the acquisitions of Radivojevic and Townsend in the last two sets give hope that she can regain her form, especially with the support of her own audience. On the other hand, Jessica Bouzas Maneiro, 23 years old from Spain, shows great stability and her main surface is clay. So I believe Hunter has a chance here.

Kings with the returning Sabonis and the 4th game against Peru look strong, especially since they will be playing at home - making Peru particularly accessible. The Blazers are higher in the standings, but they are playing back to back games and their team leader Avdija is injured and didn't play in the last three games. Kings are aiming to continue their 4-game home winning streak against Peru, and with Domantas leading the team, I believe they will be able to do so against the weakened Blazers.

The game will take place in Tallinn, at the arena, so the weather should not be a problem. Moreover, it should be a typical friendly Estonian gathering where two lower division teams meet, with a lot of action, little tactics, and usually plenty of goals, especially when one of the teams consists of youth/reserve players.

Two interesting and solid teams, Como is even higher in the tournament table and beat Lazio 2-0 at home, so there is hope for good football and goals from this team, which is capable of scoring an average of 1.5 goals per game in the Serie A league. Lazio will surely fight for points at home, and they also play well and score a decent amount of goals. Both teams are strong and like to play offensively according to the given line, so I expect goals.

Snooker The Masters London, final! Briefly - John Higgins, in the tournament quarterfinals and semifinals "sneakily" made it through the eye of the needle. Losing 3-5, he managed to win both games with a score of 6-5! Respect, a true gem! However, this London Masters should have been taken by Kyren W. who dominated throughout the tournament, defeating authoritative players such as N. Robertson and China's number 1 star Yize Wu. I choose a safer option - Kyren +1.5 frames.

Medvedev, the number 11 tournament seed, is the 4th most likely tennis player to win this tournament, and it is clear why. Coming in strong after his recent ATP tournament win in Brisbane, where he only lost one set, I believe all the players he competed against were stronger than Olandas. De Jong tried his luck in two ATP tournaments and losing against Diallo in January is not a big deal, but losing against Tirante, who is a clay player, shows that Danilo will face a quick and calm Peru here.

The bet is simple, that Altmaier will not win two sets in this match, and the odds are quite good, considering the odds being offered by other offices.

In this season, German Daniel Altmaier has played in two tournaments, in which he lost the second set 6-0 both times, so there seems to be something wrong with him, which Chile should take advantage of. The Croatian is not as confident as before, but still solid, in my opinion, which should be enough for this match.

The main thing in the bet is the huge determination of Wawrinka to successfully play his last season of his career. Wawrinka has only won the United Cup once, but he always looked very solid and now he has a beatable opponent. As usual, Djere does not look strong on hard court, as shown by his performance in Hong Kong. Wawrinka has a 2-1 advantage in their previous matches and the only match he won was at the Serbia tournament. Both players have different form and abilities, so this coefficient is worth paying attention to for Stan.

11th seeded player Medvedev is the 4th most likely tennis player to win this tournament, and it's clear why. Coming in great form after winning the ATP tournament in Brisbane, where he only lost one set, and the opponents he played against, in my opinion, were all stronger than Holland. De Jong tried his luck in two ATP tournaments and losing to Diallo in January is not a big deal, but losing to Tirante, who is a clay court specialist, shows that Danilo is facing a fast and peaceful Peru. Although the games handicap is not small, in this match Medvedev appears significantly more capable.

We give Zalgiris the last chance.
