Our own [player], Mūsiškis, is well-known for their good play on hard court. Last year, Edas even finished by defeating Gauba on a hard indoor court. Lithuania is a favorite and successful court, and 35-year-old veteran Gombos does not seem like a serious opponent for Lithuania. Edas even won the only previous meeting between them 2-0 on a clay court, so now, he is rightfully favored and I believe he will prove it on the hard court as well.

The pair of local Sweeny, who won the Peru ATP tournament qualifiers, will meet with an Italian player who has not yet played any official matches this year. The Italian came to pick up a decent check, as he has not been doing well on hard courts. Last year, the Italian lost all 5 matches on hard courts, with only one victory in the past two years in Peru. After a fairly successful tournament, the Australian should have confidence and a secure win against his opponent.

A couple of strong contenders in the Peruvian ATP tournament's qualifications, local player Sweeny and an Italian who has not yet played any official matches this year. The Italian came to claim a solid result because he is not doing well on hard courts. Last year, he lost all 5 matches on hard surfaces, and in the past two years, he has only won one match in Peru. The Australian should have confidence and should secure a win against his opponent after a successful tournament.

I think the German is severely underestimated in this meeting and the odds given are very high. Neither of them have won this year, even though they have already played, but they are tied 2-2 and all matches are played on clay, and Altmaier has won the last two times. The better serving by the German allows for the expectation that it won't be easy for the Spaniard.

Slovakia Extraliga, women's division... visitors - the last four away matches, four dry losses 0-3! Taking into account that Nitra is a stronger and more experienced national volleyball team, the fifth consecutive defeat away, there is a lower chance. "Piranijos" from Brusno, on the other hand, is a young and ambitious team, which can put up a fight at home. I believe that from the first games, their experience will show and they will prove that they arrived today fully prepared for the away match. I am predicting a win for the first set for Peru as the visitors.

The fantastic revenge against Zvezda was, now it's time for revenge against Maccabi. I believe conclusions will be made after analyzing that painful loss in Kaunas. We will work on defense and Cisco will be aggressive in offense, even when Goss and enough time to shine are missing. With decreased rotation, only the best defenders will come in handy for Zalgiris. We have seen this before when Goss was injured. Maccabi doesn't seem as confident lately, with 3 losses in the Euroleague, so it's necessary to take advantage of this weaker team if we are still thinking about making it to the playoffs.

I am going to watch the Warriors play the Hawks tonight. The Hawks are a team that promotes very fast and aggressive basketball, comparable to the pace of the Heat in the league. Their defense is also average in terms of ranking, so they often give up a lot of points, which will be advantageous for Curry to play very effectively tonight. Curry has already collected close to 30 points per game this season and has been consistently scoring for some time now, regardless of his age. Tonight, I believe he will have many good shots, and if he manages to score around 35-40 points, there probably won't be a blowout as the Hawks are a solid team. This shouldn't affect how many minutes he plays.

Bothdvi are in decent form, playing aggressive football and not shying away from creating opportunities. However, when their offense is working well, their defense often suffers. Lyon has been promoting this style of play for several seasons now, but when their offense is working, they can score against any team. Lille demonstrates very strong football at home, scoring multiple goals in their last home game and scoring 4 goals in several periods.

It seems like a small total, considering the game between the teams. Brescia has the second best attack rating in the league, while Tortona ranks third. Tortona plays at a very good pace and, although they have a good attack, they also have a weak defense. Brescia's situation is similar, with one of the best attacks but not the best defense.

Varese is the fastest team in the Italian league and has been able to boast about it for several seasons now. The biggest problem this season is the weaker offense of this team, but when playing away games, their opponents are not superior in defense. Treviso plays at a good pace and has a better offense than Varese, but their defensive rating is the worst in the league, so it will be more difficult for them to compete against running opponents.

Nairobi ITF, both met in the same Kenya at the end of last year in the final, and then won by a Kenyan representative 21-year-old Angella Okutoyi in three sets, although the fight was intense, with even a 29-year-old Italian Colmegna having break point opportunities. Despite being a young Kenyan playing at home with good support, considering the second H2H, with the Italian having more experience over, plus the fact that the Kenyan player had played two matches of three sets before the final, I would say the chances are quite good for the Italian.

Nairobi ITF, they both met at the same place in Kenya at the end of last year and also in the final, and then Angella Okutoyi, a 21-year-old representative from Kenya, won in three sets, even though the fight was even, with Ghana having 29-year-old Colmegna with break point opportunities. Although the young representative from Kenya plays at home with good support, considering that it's the second H2H and with Italy having more experience, plus the fact that the representative from Kenya had two matches of three sets each before the final, I would say that the chances are quite good for Italy.
