Žalgiris has everything in their hands for this match. Not because anything is guaranteed, but because the situation is finally on their side. The team has been looking much stronger lately, and most importantly, they play as a team, not as individual players. This match means a lot for Žalgiris, especially in the context of the tournament table. If Žalgiris doesn't falter in the beginning, they have all the chances to secure the third place in the standings! Beautiful basketball!

ITF San Diego
Elizabeth Mandlik, a 24-year-old experienced American, had a decent year with two ITF titles under her belt. She is technically skilled but lacks some strength, although she can play rallies well.
Her opponent, Christina Lyutova, is a young 15-year-old Russian who has been showing great progress in her results. However, she is only ranked 718th in the WTA and her game seems to decline as the tournament progresses, possibly due to fatigue setting in.

Elizabeth Mandlik from ITF San Diego is a experienced 24-year-old American. Last year, she had a successful season with two ITF titles. She has strong technical skills, although she may lack some power, but she can still play well in rallies. Her opponent, Christina Lyutova, is a very young 15-year-old Russian who has been showing strong progress in her results. However, she is currently ranked at WTA 718 and based on her recent performances, her game seems to decline towards the end of tournaments, suggesting that she may be running out of energy.

The Bundesliga often has Over games as two strong defensive teams, especially the Wolfsburg team, meet each other. Both teams usually score about one and a half goals per game (28 goals in 19 games for Wolfsburg, and 32 and 41 goals conceded). It is also worth noting that Cologne is favorable for Over games at home, as both they and Wolfsburg have played very offensively in their last matches, scoring a total of 32 goals in 9 home games for Cologne and away games for Wolfsburg. The game is shaping up to be an open and high-scoring match.

Despite struggling to survive, Cantu finally won the match after a staggering 9 defeats. However, facing a strong team like Venezia, their loss was heavily predicted. The solid performance from the Eurocup team gives hope for a win against Peru, especially since they did not have to play in Italy over the weekend and only played at home in the European Cup.

Although Atletico team is currently not fighting for the league title, trailing 8 and 7 points behind the leaders, they are always close and their strength is felt. They have a match against one of the underdogs, Levante, who are often defeated by Atletico's strong defense. Atletico, who have one of the best defenses in the league, score many goals and are very capable with long and solid passes. Although Levante team has been successful recently, when it comes time to play against top Spanish teams, losses are unavoidable for them.

Although the stick shot and Bayern's dominance ended with Germany's impressive streak, after a cold shower, the Bayern team must once again dominate Germany. The super, well-playing champion strikes everyone and scores a lot, and against underdogs and league newcomers, we can only expect a secure victory. This is how the matches went after the Netherlands and the away game, but there is no chance for Hamburg, who were crushed 5-0 away. Bayern is playing too well and the opponent is too weak, so the victory for Peru must be secured, as usual this season from Bayern's side.

Pauliukevičius UTMA crushes all of his opponents with explosive force. Score 4-0, all of Peru is confident in knockouts, with great strength and aggression.

Although Šalkovskij's score 2-1 is not bad, especially considering the loss to Dirksčius, it still doesn't come close to what Pauliukevičius demonstrates. The psychological handicap is also clearly in favor of Ignas. The incident during the joint interview, when he hit Šalkovskij in the face, seems to serve him even better - it's clear that Šalkovskij is morally affected.

No matter how much Edvinas repeats that he is completely relaxed and not making a big deal out of his opponent, it's obvious that it's the opposite. This is not a healthy sports anger, but a nervous anger caused by fear. In one interview, Šalkovskij even said that he is going into the fight to "enjoy" it, and whatever happens - happens, and life won't end if he loses. Such attitude and talking about the possibility of losing, especially before a fight against someone like Pauliukevičius, will definitely not help him win. On the contrary.

Meanwhile, Pauliukevičius looks completely tension-free, but let's hope he will control his wild aggression before the fight. I understand that the odds for this bet aren't high, but they're still not bad for this event. I see no real chances for Šalkovskij to win - it's like a train against a muscle car. Both are tough, but the outcome is clear. Even the notorious Dirkstys, while being in the same studio with Pauliukevičius, shows respect and doesn't hesitate to acknowledge his strength.

Pauliukevičius may not be the brightest UTMA fighter, but the fight won't be played like a game of chess. And he has no shortage of aggression, strength, and self-confidence. The home arena and fans won't help Šalkovskij either, in fact, it may only strengthen Pauliukevičius' sports drive. Most importantly, "wanna be Tyson" won't knock out his opponent's ear or arm in the ring 😁.

There is a psychological handicap for Pauliukevicius here. Salkovskis, although still upset about the trauma caused by that slap, could feel the strength of Ignas during their conversation. This is not the first time Salkovskis has encountered resistance from Dirkst, but this time there was also a strong opponent in the ring - Ignas. Ignas, on the other hand, participated, fought, and each time seemed to handle the pressure better. This should bombard Pauliukevicius with the Salkovskis case, and Edvinas will need to succeed in catching that one decisive blow.
