Two teams that pleasantly surprise with their current opponents are Bournemouth, who have not lost 12 consecutive games and are strongly fighting for a spot in the Europa League next season. Leeds has pulled away from the relegation zone thanks to 6 unbeaten games and on top of that, secured a spot in the FA Cup semifinals where they have decent chances against an out-of-form Chelsea side. Both teams have been looking quite impressive on the attacking end, causing discomfort for the English elite with their recent performances, and they both love to score goals. In the 22-23 season, when they played each other in the EPL, Leeds won 4-3 against Bournemouth and lost 4-1 in the reverse fixture. This season, they are both back in the EPL and their first game ended in a 2-2 draw, perfectly reflecting how evenly matched these teams are. I am once again expecting an exciting game between them, and my prediction is a 4-2 win for Bournemouth.

Both one and the other fell out of Europe and can now focus on the culmination of the Spanish league, as both have something to fight for. Barça can win the league title, while Celta is fighting with the 6th team for the 5/6 places that would secure them a spot in the Europa League or the Conference League next season. Celta's problem is that their defense has been crumbling recently, as in their last 5 games they have conceded 2+ goals 5 times, and 3+ goals in 4 of those games... and now they will face Barcelona's offense, which could easily score 5 goals in a day. Celta's advantage is their offense, which has the power to punish, while Barça's defense always gives their opponents opportunities. My prediction is a 4-2 win for Barça.

The total for the competition is set at 3.5 cards, but I am taking a higher number because I believe it will increase to 3.5 before the competition. Taking it at 4.5 with such high odds offers a lot of value. Chelsea's season is close to a disaster, with their Champions League spot slipping away. If they do not start collecting points soon, they will not have a spot in the Europa League either. 9 teams are fighting for this spot, including 6th place Chelsea and 14th place Newcastle, who are separated by only 6 points. Among these 9 teams are also Brighton, who are only 1 point behind Chelsea. Both Brighton and Chelsea are aggressive teams, and this should lead to a high number of cards in the competition.

Since Lasas arrived, Efes has at least improved their game and after two strong losses, I hope for a comeback. The opponent is favorable, playing streetball.

Completely unlike himself, Arnaldi, playing tragic tennis, meets with the clay expert, Lajovic. I do not see a reason why the Italian should magically start playing well and win the match. I believe the Serb will give the youth good lessons on how to play tennis on sand. The experience, court surface, and form are on the Serb's side.

Grandfather lives the career peak, he is the oldest Top100-ranked player in history, respect for the representative of Argentina. The ground expert should not decrease the rotations and continue to demonstrate excellent form. His opponent, although showing great form, has not yet climbed on the ground this season, which makes me have many doubts during this period. I choose Marco Peru.

I really hope that Gaubas will finally play well and win against Peru, a very suitable opponent who has been known and already defeated 2-0 on sand. Gea recently ignited, but the match took place on a hard surface/indoors, which posed problems for the French player. Vilius' main surface is sand, so in order to prove himself this season, he needs to start playing, as the clay season has already started to wind down.

In a tragic stage of his career, Jarry saw the light by reaching the Challenger final, but it still doesn't convince me because the player was not able to win a match for about 6 months before that. The walkover in the previous match even further diminishes Jarry's chances, as it seems that his condition is not 100%. Garin feels great on clay, having just beaten Zverev in Monaco and taking a week of rest and mental preparation for the Madrid Masters. Known opponents are 3-0 against Garin.

West Ham is fighting for survival in the league, as they are currently in a dry spell, but only 1 point away from Tottenham. The biggest problem for West Ham this season is their defense, as they have been unable to keep a clean sheet and often concede 2+ goals. Palace's season has been strange, with the sale of key players and their coach announcing his departure at the end of the season. They have also reached the semifinals of the Conference League... Palace is a safe place in England, but now their focus is on Europe, and playing every 3 days takes a toll on the team, especially since their main CB Lacroix, who has been a key player this season, was sold to Guehi. The matches between these two teams at Palace's stadium are very high-scoring, with the last 5 meetings having 4+ goals scored 4 times and 5+ goals scored 4 times... Considering how both teams are playing now, I expect a minimum of 2-2.

Both teams had to work hard to reach the semifinals, Kobe came back from a 3-1 deficit against Al Hilal and won after penalty kicks, Al Ahli came back from a 0-1 deficit and won 2-1 (despite having a red card). Al Ahli has a strong contribution from well-known European players, the majority of whom are dangerous in the attack, making them a threatening team. Kobe relies on local players, but they never give up and play at a high level, making them a dangerous team. Once again, I see a close match between both teams and a tougher fight than the bookies expect. My guess would be a 3-2 win for Al Ahli.

Club Brugge reached the final by being underdogs both against Atletico Madrid (4-0) and against Benfica (3-1), but that says a lot about their youth and that they cannot be underestimated. Real Madrid has been showing stellar form throughout the tournament, but they barely made it to the final, needing a 85th-minute equalizer against PSG in the quarterfinals. Brugge will go into this game with their heads held high, knowing that they have beaten them in the last two rounds. Real will come into this game fired up and will do everything to avoid a repeat of the semifinal scenario, I see both teams scoring but my prediction is Real to win at least 3-1.

Encounter between teams whose places are not clear yet in the playoffs, so far both are in the same positions - Watford in 7th and Charlton in 8th, but both could still end up outside of playoff spots in case of a loss and if Cardiff or Wigan move up. Both teams have weak defenses, so they cannot rely on that, but both have solid offenses. According to overs, both teams are among the top 10 out of 20 possible. On average, Watford's matches end with 4.4 goals, Charlton's with 3.8 goals, at home Watford's average is over 4.7 goals and Charlton's away is over 3.9 goals. Since 2022 they have played each other 8 times, 5 of those times there were over 4 goals and 4 times there were over 5 goals. In these matches neither team can afford to lose, a draw may not be enough, and they cannot rely on their defense.

I had the opportunity to watch the matches of both clubs, Brugge against Atletico and Real against Sporting. The youngsters from Brugge showed a liking for attacking and were particularly dangerous on counter attacks. Real may know how to defend, but they also have a very talented young team and against Sporting, they dominated strongly, creating chance after chance. Although it is the final, it is not men playing, but rather young players who often struggle under pressure and make mistakes. Real are the favorites here and if they play a similar game to the one they showed against Sporting, they should come out victorious together.

Spoiled 6 out of 7 recent matches do not inspire confidence in the Lecce team. All the rivals have overcome it easily, and now it's Fiorentina's turn. Fiorentina is in good form and, despite dropping out of the conference league, this game would secure their spot in the league. I believe the odds are in favor of the strong Fiorentina team, and even the form of the Lecce team alone is enough to go against them.

The most productive team in the league, Estoril, scored 51 goals and allowed 50 in 29 league matches. This bet is also supported by the history of 5 previous matches with all 3+ goals. This year, Estoril played very productively in 11 out of 13 matches, and their playing style is intriguing with a weak defense and a strong attacking line.

Even though I would bravely choose the 2.5 under bet, out of respect I will take the larger line. Both teams are top clubs in Denmark, who show great defense with only 26 and 28 goals conceded in 26 league matches. The teams have already played against each other 4 times this season and none of the matches have gone over the 2.5 line. Even when looking at the xG statistics, the teams can confidently claim that there will be another under. The teams do not play offensively and this has been a frequent occurrence when they have faced each other, so we can expect few goals again.

Everything is simple, Zalgiris will save their main players in order to avoid injuries, I won't be surprised if Wright, Francisco, and Lo won't even be registered for the away game, this is due to the fans and it's not necessary to win, against Peru tomorrow it is necessary to secure the second position, I believe there are valid arguments for an over and it's not needed.

Blast Rivals

The teams have a similar level of strength, which is also reflected in the teams' rankings, with the 4th and 5th teams in the standings. Although the teams played all three games very quickly during the regular season, and the Raptors won all three head-to-head matches, I believe they have a good chance of performing well and potentially winning. My prediction is very safe, but strongly convincing when considering the teams' abilities.

From the 23/24 year of the season, the Hawks did not play in the playoffs, but just like a couple of seasons ago when they lost 4-2 in the first round, here the Atlanta team must lose by 2 or over with handicaps. In this regular season, the Knicks have the advantage of 2-1, and their form and ability are strongly on the side of the New York team. Just at the beginning of April, the Knicks won against the Hawks on their away game, so in this series, the win must be for them.

Although the Lakers team has a home advantage and won 2-1 against the Rockets in the regular season, everything is changing now. Due to injury, the Lakers have lost their leader Doncic and another star Reaves, and even Hayes has a foot injury, who should still play but won't be at 100%. The Houston team is in great form and finished the regular season with 9 wins and only 1 loss.

I have already written about Sweden in my other prediction. I think it is very realistic to make it into the top 10. The song should be in the top 10 for both the jury and televote, and that should be enough for the final table. Historically, Sweden receives a lot of points from the jury. Maybe not all juries will give points for this genre, but there will be juries that will appreciate the Swedish quality. I would also say that the song is suitable for televoting because it is an EDM song, a party song that makes people dance. So it will also receive a good amount of votes from the televote.

Estonia makes it to the final, while Latvia and Lithuania do not make it through. The bet is won. I don't think this scenario is out of the fantasy realm.
Although the Lion's voice is great, the song itself is not clear if it will hook Europe like Lithuania did for us, and the context is different as well. Sometimes these artistic experiments are not understood. Additionally, in the semi-finals, Lithuania does not have its loyal friends: the UK, Ireland, Norway, Latvia. Points for nothing. I see Lithuania's chances of making it to the final as 50/50.
Latvia appears in the second semi-final, where the competition is much tougher than the first, as overall the songs in the second semi-final are better than the first. In the second semi-final, it's clear except for Azerbaijan. All other countries are still fighting for a spot in the final. In the semi-finals, I see Latvia in 8th-12th place.
Meanwhile, Estonia is competing in the weaker first semi-final along with Lithuania. The song is simple and for me, at least, it evokes nostalgia. I would say it should definitely outrank San Marino, Portugal, and Georgia, but who knows beyond that. But the odds are worth paying attention to.

If I had to pick a winner right now, I would probably choose Denmark. There isn't a clear favorite yet. Finland is currently in the lead, but not quite convincingly and personally I don't see them winning at the moment. The contest is still about a month and a half away, so the odds will continue to change.

From what I've heard, Denmark just gives off 'winner vibes'. Their performance is good, engaging, polished, and Eurovision-ready. I don't think there is much to change before the big Eurovision. The performer has a strong, confident vocal. The last minute is more energetic and well-staged, which allows for a more memorable performance at Eurovision.

For three consecutive years, the favorite song of the audience ranked very close to Peru and took 2nd or 3rd place:
2023 - Käärijä
2024 - Baby Lasagna
2025 - Tommy Cash

This year, the most joyful and possibly the audience's favorite song could be Greece. I don't know if this year's Greek song will be as successful as the ones mentioned, but it definitely has potential. The song is truly unique. As a plus, I see that this year there are more countries supporting Greece as usual in Eurovision. Romania and Bulgaria have returned. However, the number of countries from the Balkan region has decreased. This year, Iceland, Ireland, and the Netherlands are not participating.

A little drop was observed in Fenerbahce's stock after their defeat to Olympiacos, but to me it doesn't seem like a tragedy, rather an opportunity. Such losses are very likely and should only strengthen Fenerbahce as the season comes to an end. The team is trained by possibly the best coach in Europe, so I can't imagine the final four without Fenerbahce. Of course, the finals will take place in Greece and it won't be easy, but in the end, everything depends on my assumption that Fenerbahce has over 20% chance of winning the Euroleague.

Bucks leaving the East is a serious possibility, especially with such high odds. Giannis is having another incredible season and it doesn't seem like his form will decline. Ryan Rollins is becoming a great player. Kevin Porter Jr is not yet there, but he will be, and if we don't count his non-basketball related issues, he is a great player. AJ Green is a complete sniper who can make shots in every game. Myles Turner is struggling right now, but he will start making shots soon. The recipe for the Bucks is clear - Giannis is the main man and the shooters are placed around him, and with this team, it's possible to win championships.

The main contenders will most likely be Cleveland, 76ers, and Knicks, maybe even Orlando, but it's disappointing and unclear which of them will rise this season.

The West is very competitive. In the past years, it was not clear who would rank in the top 4 - 11.
The Spurs will still be in the mix, and the Rockets look strong. It's too early to count out the Kings.
Curry is 37 years old, Butler is 36, and Draymond is 35, so the core players are getting older and could potentially face the same injuries.

401 coefficient

First long-term bet for the new full season. Chelsea's coefficient is still over 2, which means they will finish in the Top 4, and I have no doubts about that. Last season, they finished fourth and strengthened their team impressively at the end of the season. It was clear that this young team is a force to be reckoned with, winning two trophies and beating PSG gave them a lot of confidence going forward. So yes, Chelsea will play Champions League football, but in terms of the main competition for the fourth place, I see Newcastle as the main rival and I don't think they have strengthened enough to challenge for it. As for the other teams, United and Tottenham? United have made too much progress in just one season and Tottenham have a lower level than Chelsea, plus they are also in the Champions League. Aston Villa seems destined for relegation and I don't see any other contenders. Overall, I believe Chelsea is closer to joining the top three of Arsenal, Manchester City, and Liverpool, rather than fighting for the Top 4 spot, which I don't see them achieving in the upcoming Premier League season.
