For some, Sadd's favorites season is developing tragically, both in the local league and in the ACL. The offense is moving, but the defense is struggling. Today's opponent has one of the worst defenses in the league and is sitting at the bottom of the table, which means we will have to rely on our attack once again, as 3 points are very much needed. We can expect a typical Sadd match, with lots of offense and likely goals.
It will be difficult to attack Peru with a very weak team and against such an underrated opponent. Everything will change and it will definitely be a challenge, as a lot of effort is needed to overcome this. The owners will not change their doubts, as the talents are incomparable, and the leader will undoubtedly play against all the better players.
Guests have consistently been playing strong basketball for years and are one of the favorites in the league. Recently, they have joined from a lower league where they did not have equal opponents, but here it is a different level and I believe they should easily win.
Looking at it from the players' perspective, tidebound has a lot of unstable players and their gameplay in Ghana has been poor lately. Tea, being an average skilled team, has already beaten tidebound once. I don't know, I think Tea also has good chances, but I'm trying to go with a handicap because Ghana seems to have an advantage against such a tidebound team.
The newcomers of the Erokspor team are breaking all the standards in the highest league. Even with a super new lineup, they demonstrate that they will be fighting for top positions this season. The team's long and solid unity is bearing fruit and with their versatility and good gameplay, they look very promising. Petkim team with Sajumi does not seem very impressive and even though they look good at home, personally, Esenler team looks better.
First of all, a quite good coefficient for the Baskus in good form against weak average teams in the Spanish league. The Basku club is usually difficult to stop in these kinds of matchups. Although they lack consistency, as usual for the Baskus, their team is capable of playing very well. In five matches in the ACB league, the Baskus average 89.8 points and their offense will be very unfavorable for Lleida team, which is ranked 11th in the league with an average of 84.6 points. The composition and gameplay of the Lleida team is not convincing, so I believe the Baskus are a solid choice.
Both teams have obvious attack handicaps, but their defense is not reliable. Sudtirol has only managed to maintain a clean sheet in two out of their last 10 matches, while Carrarese has let their opponents score seven times during the same period.
An open game is expected from the first minutes. Sudtirol rarely closes down defensively at home, while Carrarese has scored at least one goal in 8 out of their last 10 away matches.
Sherif Mayar Peru has had injuries this season and as of July 10th, not counting this tournament, has a record of 5-10 losses. In the last few tournaments, they have seen strong underdogs win:
Kawa 3.72 odds;
Vandewinkel H. 3.78;
Oliynykova O. 2.67;
Korpatsch T. 2.8;
Gorgodze E. 5.16;
Zidansek T. 2.17;
Kostovic T. 2.42;
Rame A. 3.67;
And most often, all of these wins have been in two sets, with a total of under 20 games.
In Sherif's previous opponents, all were overs with odds of 1.15.
Meanwhile, Waltert Simona's opponents - 24-year-old Swiss player - have been outperforming her career this season. In the last tournament, she bravely faced the local player Riera on clay, losing the first set, which should give her extra confidence.
A big plus is also the head-to-head record, with Sherif winning the last two matches.
