One of the teams from the lower 2 Bundesliga championship, Bochum, after being relegated from the top league last season, is not recovering well. The team looks very poor and unstable, while Stuttgart appears to be playing fairly well. With a heavier workload, Stuttgart is used to it as they play in the European league, so mid-week matches are nothing new for them. Playing a productive style of football, even with an experimental lineup, I believe Stuttgart will easily overcome Bochum.

After a very successful match against Bayern in the Bundesliga championship, it is now time for these teams to determine who is stronger in the cup. Union led at home twice, but Bayern cannot afford to play such poor matches for the second time. Bayern, who created opportunities and had 74% possession, must crush their opponents, who as I see it were like a stick once shot.

I am repeating last night's choice and again going with the Sheppard over. They were quite passive in the previous game against the Jazz, but today I expect to see more initiative in terms of over, as well as in my own - I raised the total points. If they go over, I believe it will be by 16+ points. The Jazz continue to be one of the worst teams in the NBA when it comes to defending against players in that position.

Luka Doncic is the most productive player in the NBA right now, averaging 35.1 points per game. Luka has been unstoppable lately, surpassing 32.5 points over in the last 6 consecutive games (60% for the entire season). Maybe his intense schedule and fatigue are a bit concerning, but I believe that's also the reason for the slightly lower numbers. However, the Slovenian seems to be in excellent athletic shape, so I'm expecting another great performance from him.

We are moving with the home handicap and the Hertha club that shows very good form. 6 consecutive wins, including a trophy, show how strong the current form of the Berlin team is, not to mention the recent away win against Kaiserslautern team. Although they are neighbors in the 2nd Bundesliga, the form of both teams differs greatly, and the home stadium of Hertha has become a fortress with 5 consecutive wins, while the away team celebrates rarely this season.

Despite facing tougher matches, City team is once again undervalued. While Fulham is a good and interesting team in England, they must meet the standards set by City. While City is often known for fighting for the title, they rarely make mistakes, and after a weaker match, they always follow up with strong performances. I believe we should expect the same from the citizens of Manchester. Fulham has defeated Tottenham and Sunderland, but I do not think they have much chance against City, who, as usual, confidently marches forward in England.

I am looking forward to the defensive match today. Vallecano has a great defense at home, while Valencia is on the offensive, but their execution is poor. If goals are scored, it will most likely be from a penalty or some kind of set piece.

I am waiting for the defensive match here today. Vallecano has a great defense at home, Valencia is attacking, but the execution is poor. If goals are scored, it will most likely be a penalty or some kind of set piece.

Here it is possible that Brondby will single-handedly cover the total, at home facing the tragically struggling Fredericia team, which has already conceded 40 goals this season in 16 played matches, and 23 away in 8 played matches. Meanwhile, Brondby has scored a lot at home, with an average of more than 2 goals per game this season, so it is unlikely that their goal average will improve against one of the weakest defenses in the league. At home, Brondby concedes a fair amount of goals, although they have a decent overall defense, while Fredericia performs better away from home, so the chances are good for the guests to also score some goals here.

I believe that we can even expect a productive clash between these teams. Atletico club, who are in good form, have scored 2 goals in 3 out of their last 4 matches against each other. Since they have only won once, I think this option looks the most attractive. Atletico has been scoring goals consistently, with 27 goals in 14 league matches and 12 goals in 5 Champions League matches. On the other hand, Barcelona is struggling, especially in defense, and even though their strong offense has kept them from falling into a hole, there are still many signs of trouble. Barcelona has been facing defensive issues throughout the season, and Atletico should take advantage of this.

A little bit of statistics, the Wizards team is the worst in the league with only 2 wins out of 18 games. Of their 16 losses, 12 have been by double digits. The Washington team just can't seem to get it together and even though they have some well-known basketball players, their basket is empty and it reflects in the results. The Bucks don't seem to be doing as well as they should, even with G. Antetokoumpo back, who has already played Back to Back games. In this one, I think they should come out on top, even though they are considered a bit of an underdog, especially now that the important Bucks player Porter is back. The Bucks team has won 6 out of 9 games this season by double digits. Based on everything, Bucks, just like in the first NBA tour, should beat the underdogs, and in the modern NBA it's normal to have a big advantage, so I believe there should be a double-digit difference between these two teams.

The average is higher than the proposed total, so I think it's worth trying to continue milking with Kon, who is my favorite for the Rookie of the Year award. He has a great handle and shoots well from long range, although of course he recently had a couple of poorer games where unders were expected due to the open style of play, but overall Brooklyn is one of the worst defensive teams and Charlotte struggles with frequent turnovers on the road, with only 1 out of 8 attempts from 3-point range being successful. But with Lamelo Ball expected to play, they should compete for points. So overall, Kon should have a good chance at expanding the score and could end up successfully scoring closer to the basket, making this total relatively easy to cover with an average of 8 long-range shots, if we continue with 40% accuracy in our shots from beyond the arc.

Since the Bucks themselves are not good in defense lately and have quite a few problems overall, I think it's worth taking the risk with a slightly bigger over, because Peru needs to improve their position and against such a team they must demonstrate a better offense, just like many other teams tend to improve their stats against the Wizards.

Although Kyle Kuzma may not be the main playmaker, I believe he can score the necessary points calmly against his former team. I think he can confidently reach around 15 points, with a focus on hitting 3-pointers and making decisive breakthroughs against the opponents. Overall, there is not much to discuss here - the Wizards have the worst defense in the league and the Bucks should have no problems scoring against them.
