Challenger Zadar, clay.. local representative of faunas Jozepas S. (21 years old) can 'grab' a set here, but not the overall win. For now, the latter has been moving in doubles, holding nominations and diplomas. Today, the card of the host, having passed both qualification rounds, the 25-year-old Spaniard, treated his opponents with a serve in both matches. Although the Spaniard is not known for his stability, he must pass this starting stage.

Real has already achieved real results and will simply be able to bide their time, while City is currently in a very poor form. A weak offense and Real's ability to maintain the result, I think we can expect a game with a low number of goals. I believe the Real team will try to play aggressively and aim to not let in any goals for as long as possible, so I think this line will be difficult to overcome.

Although Inter failed to defeat Bodo and the Norwegian club celebrated a 3-0 win against Sporting at home, but now I think the view of Portugal will be completely different. Sporting has a lot of potential in attack, the Portuguese team scores an average of almost 3 goals, so they have to score in these matches. In my opinion, if we have to choose someone in these matches, it would be Sporting, and we often see so-called miracles in the Champions League, and the home advantage is still a very significant factor in this championship.

Despite Inter's inability to defeat Bodo and the fact that the Norwegian club celebrated a 3-0 victory over Peru at home against Sporting, I believe the situation will be completely different now in Portugal. Sporting has a lot of potential in their offense, with an average of almost 3 goals per game in the Portuguese league, so they must score in this match. I think that in this game, the only logical choice is Sporting, and we often see surprises in the Champions League. The home field advantage is also a significant factor in this competition.

I had the chance to watch the first game and it turned out that Melbourne has a better team and I believed they would win against Peru, but Cotton played fantastically and scored 42 points. Now the series score is tied, both teams have visited each other's arena, so I see the advantage of Melbourne here. Adelaide is very dependent on Cotton and if they don't perform well as a team, it's possible they may lose.

Hapoel returns to play their Euroleague game in Bulgaria, which takes away their home court advantage and creates such a lively atmosphere that I believe it will be much easier to score points. Paris is constantly expanding, as shown by their Euroleague statistics, with an average of 89.7 points scored and 91.6 points conceded. Hapoel's totals are lower at 86.3 and 83.1, but Paris is not their everyday opponent, as seen in their last 3 encounters (including Eurocup), all of which resulted in totals of 174+ points, with 3 of them reaching 185+. The fast pace and lively atmosphere should break this total down.

The coefficient forces you to take overs, rarely will you see such a coefficient for a standard total in youth games, but here are clubs that are not afraid to score goals/easily let them in. This season, Villarreal played 8 games in the UEFA Youth League, with 5 of them being over the total. PSG also played 8 games, with 7 being over the total. To watch these games and say that suddenly the youth will stop making mistakes in defense or lose all their talent in attack is just foolish... Looking at how these teams are playing this season, this coefficient should be around 1.50 or something similar.

The task for City is clear, they have a 3 goal deficit after the first game and there is no goal to draw or save. Real surprised many in the first game, considering their injuries and fluctuating form, not many expected a 3-0 result, although it could have been even more. Pep's team's formation and choice of players in that game caught the eye... for example, leaving a player like Cherki on the bench was unforgivable. City must push a large number of players forward from the start, as Real will have a lot of space to attack if they take possession of the ball. And everyone knows that Real is not a team that plays defensively. It is great to see goals from both teams.

The Norwegian fairy tale continues further, this time they are going to Portugal with 3 goals scored against Peru, which will make it difficult for them to lose based on their current game. Sporting no longer has a place to retreat, as they must score 3 goals from the first minutes to conquer the opponent's goal. Something similar happened with Bodo a couple of weeks ago, in the first match against Inter they won 3-1, while in the second match against Italy they dominated and had 30 strikes, which led to 16 corner kicks. Although the underdog is important to note, during the last group match away from home, Bodo managed to draw against Atletico Madrid, which led to 12 corner kicks for the home team.

The team from Dubai, after returning to the team after injuries and finding their rhythm, looks quite impressive. The EuroLeague has recorded a series of 5 wins and is very close to securing a spot among the top 10 teams. On the other hand, Partizan is not competing for anything at the moment, so I believe their attitudes and forms will differ and currently, Dubai is showing better form, so we can expect them to win.

In order to secure a spot in the World Championship, Brazil needs to win against China, which has already secured its place. Although the Chinese team is very strong, I believe that given the circumstances and the importance of the match, it is possible to overcome such a handicap.

Australia no longer has anything to fight for, but in order for Canada to secure a spot in the playoffs, they need to win. Canada has been playing in this selection round with ups and downs, but after weaker matches, they would come back with a positive response. The question is what motivation Australia will have, but even against a highly competitive team like Australia, Canada should have a chance.

Kačinas and the cup winners Trefl continue to reap victories against Peru's national team, while Gdynia's team continues their poor streak. The series of losses and poor form from Gdynia do not inspire confidence, but Sopot's team looks very strong and their odds seem to be taken.

Not a single win this year and already 11 consecutive losses - Jarry's statistics in tournaments continues to decline. The experienced Chilean has never shone on hard courts, and his current solid opponent is a clear favorite who I believe will prove it. The good tennis shown by the Italian suggests that there is no better choice than to bet on him.

Local and experienced McDonald played quite well in the previous Indian Wells tournament and now starts again from qualifications. Defeating the Spaniard Mackenzie five days ago, he seems to be a clear favorite in the upcoming match, with a high chance of winning. Experience and greater skill, just like the home turf, I believe will bring victory for the American from Peru.

It is necessary for Zalgiris to take the win here, because the situation in the tournament table is becoming difficult, Real is in good form, while the form of Zalgiris' leaders is a bit lacking, but Real has had many matches at home, and they are not as strong in away matches. This is the main argument for the home court advantage. Live or die, the game is crucial for Zalgiris in maintaining at least the 7-8th spot in the tournament table.

In the first game, it was fairly evenly matched, but Peru celebrated over the Hungarians. Braga is playing well this year and the team is capable of defeating the Hungarian club at home. The question is, will they be able to advance to the next stage? However, it is very likely that they will reach Peru.
