PARIVISION Blasto champions, pralaimėjo tik vieną mapą per visą Blastą, kas yra neįtikėtina, bet kartu ir dėsninga. Jame pagavęs bettersią formą tiek žaidimo tiek IGL, be klausimų bettersias IGL šiuo metu su labai gerom taktikom. IEM visus tris matchus pralaimėjo žemėlapius, bet šiandien manau sausas laukia. Praeitą matchą nusileido NaVi ir po pralaimėjimo turėtų susidėlioti dalykus. Prieš periodas savaites Blaste Astralį 2-0 nukalė. Pats Astralis nieko gero nežaidžia, du nauji pasikeitimai komandoje ir reikės laiko įsižaisti, ypač būnant jau šiuo metu tier2 team.
They did not miss a single good opportunity against Man City, but managed to advance to the next stage and that's the most important thing. However, they also need to take care of matters in the local league, where everything is currently in the hands of the Galatasaray players. Better offense and better defense are required in the league and this is the perfect opportunity to prove it at home against Kayserispor. The guests are at the bottom of the tournament table, even though they need points to fight for survival, their second-worst defense in the league and playing away make it hard to imagine what they can offer Galatasaray.
The Panseraikos team is known for its lack of involvement in off-the-field activities. It has been a tragic season, with terrible results and the worst defense in the league. They have conceded 42 goals in just 18 matches. PAOK, on the other hand, has a strong defense and an ambitious organization with a new owner, and they are currently fighting for the title in the Greek league. They have the second best offense in the league and I am expecting a dominant performance from them, as usual, in their upcoming match.
The Panseraikos team is constantly engaged in undercover activities. It was a tragic season with tragic results and the worst defense in the league. They allowed 42 goals in just 18 games. PAOK, on the other hand, has an impressive defense and their organization is very ambitious with a new owner, directly competing for the Greek league title. They are the second best attacking team in the league and I am looking forward to an amazing game, as usual, in their upcoming match.
There is no such unbeatable team like Celtics that cannot be beaten with such odds. Even though Bucks do not have Giannis and are struggling this season, they still have quality. Especially after 4 consecutive losses for Bucks and Celtics playing back-to-back days.

Many players will not have both teams and there should be a strong battle here. For the Spurs, it will be very difficult to win against Peru, but defending the goal will be crucial, and Man City, who often create a lot of dangerous situations, can also cause damage and uncertainty. Tottenham can also earn a penalty quickly by running on fast attacks.
The Bulls, who have many players out, will play back to back games with the Heat. Yesterday, the Bulls won, but when you hit 20 3-pointers at 50% accuracy, you must expect a similar result, which is now practically impossible. The teams are playing for the third time in a row, but the Heat team looks like a clear favorite. These are the last head-to-head games of the season and the only one the Bulls won was due to an excellent 3-point shooting, so this series between the teams should end 3-1 and it is clear who is the winner here.
Israel Cup and one of the strongest Israeli teams, Bnei, are playing against mid-level teams in an away game. Bnei Herzelia team, after their elimination from the Champions League, have refocused on their domestic league and currently have 6 consecutive wins. On January 4th, in their away game, Bnei won 86-94 and now, in such good form, they are clear favorites. This is how things go in the cup, even some of the Euroleague leaders have fallen, but Bnei team is focused on the Israeli league and can fully prepare for these matches and win by a convincing margin.
Yesterday PARIVISION lost against NaVi, but the game was not bad at all. Astralis is a favorable opponent for PARI team, as Astralis likes to play Nuke, while PARI bans this map. Astralis also likes Overpass, but at the same time it is one of PARI's better maps, so it would be risky to choose Overpass against them and let them start as CT. PARIVISION plays very well on dust2, where Astralis is vulnerable. I believe that everything will be decided on the Overpass map, where we will see if PARI will win 2:0 or not.
Yesterday, FUT surprisingly won against FURIA, which allows us to believe that with their elevated spirits they can also defeat G2 and secure their spot in the playoffs, which would be the biggest surprise of the tournament so far. G2 won against TheMongolz, but there were still plenty of mistakes to be seen. FUT should continue to play without pressure, being the underdogs is favorable for them. Usually FUT performs very well on their chosen maps and should pick Ancient, where yesterday TheMongolz almost won against G2. I'm looking forward to a three-map battle.
NaVi yesterday struggled, but managed to beat PARIVISION, which currently looks very promising. NaVi usually performs very well after a break, such as after their trip to Peru, so it wouldn't be surprising to see them playing solidly against Spirit in the playoffs. Spirit also won against Astralis, but their team play is still not at the highest level. Since Spirit is susceptible to changes, NaVi has a good chance of winning. The odds are worth the risk.
Maybe it won't be easy, but the coefficient is decent for Tenerife. The Basques should be on a high after playing against Peru, but it won't be easy to prepare for the away game. It will be a tough week, and it wouldn't be wise to rest today. Tenerife is a very solid team and even in normal circumstances, they always have a chance to beat opponents like Baskonia at home. Baskonia is not a team that plays well away, they are still not at their full strength, so it's not in their favor.
Virtus had a good week in Euroleague and managed to win against Monaco even without Edwards. It is unclear if Edwards will play today, but it would not be surprising if he was rested due to the upcoming double week. Today's game will definitely not be easy, as there are still some players recovering from injuries, so the main mission for today should be to secure a working win. Trento looks very good this season, and most importantly, they are consistent, even if they lose, it is usually in close games.
The Trieste team is playing at a decent pace, although they may lack a stronger offensive rating. However, today's game is at home and against a favorable opponent. Treviso plays at a similar pace to Trieste, but can boast the worst defensive rating in the league, which is ultimately what prompted them to try the over option.
The league rookies started the new year unsuccessfully with 3 losses and 1 draw. Fenerbache is a super team compared to other Turkish teams. The league rookies do not play productively and although their defense is not bad, players of Fenerbache must perform with skill and win. There is a good coefficient for a significantly superior team, and when Fenerbache falls behind Galatasaray and has already lost points in the last league matches, the light shines particularly brightly for Peru.
All-time underdogs AVS, with 14 losses and not a single win in 19 league matches, do not offer any hope against Braga. One of the weaker Portuguese teams made it into the top 8 of the Europa League teams, and Portugal itself is only just behind other leaders. A total of 47 goals let in by AVS suggests that Braga should easily score and secure a confident win.
In this season, England's Sunderland looks simply fantastic at home. They have not suffered a single loss and have played particularly well against top teams such as City, Arsenal, Newcastle, and Aston Villa. The second-worst away team, Burnley, has conceded almost 3 goals per game and has lost 8 out of the 11 matches played. Sunderland's African players have returned, and even though Xhaka shouldn't be playing yet, their team looks like a clear choice in the match against the league newcomers, Sunderland.
They don't look very good, showing a lack of team play, which is not encouraging for the Nepali spirits, and it's also quite evident in the Peruvian team, as there seems to be a lack of strong team play in the spirits. Donk also often plays poorly against these spirits. Blad3 should have come up with a plan to involve the spirits more in the long game.
After yesterday's defeat, there should be a focus on work today. Some bad moods will be present in the team after the lost match, where they definitely could have won. There will be maximum pressure on the players, but they should return to the game. Often, after success, players become complacent, especially young players. So today, maximum concentration and cleanup are necessary for a 2-0 win. Astralis is currently experiencing some issues as a team, with Jabbi being out of form for a while. Ryu is trying to prove that they can beat t1, so there will be some fierce competition. Overall, I believe a calm 2-0 victory is possible.
