Hapoel is looking great this year, they are the leaders of the league with a record of 9-3, and only 1 loss at home for the entire season. They will be facing Real Madrid, who have been struggling this season and have not been playing well, especially when away from their home court. Their previous game against Zalgiris was not convincing and required the intervention of referees. Real has only managed 1 victory away from home this Euroleague season, so I believe it will be very difficult for them to offer any competition against the strong Hapoel team in their current state.

This year, Man Utd is definitely showing signs of improvement, especially after starting the season with 5 matches without a loss, including a draw against Peru and being just one point away from a Top 5 spot. Man Utd also looks very strong at home this season, with wins in 4 out of 5 matches, with the only loss being to Arsenal on the first matchday. Today, they will face Everton, who have not been very impressive this season and have only collected 4 points in 5 away matches. I believe that in front of their fans, United should extend their unbeaten streak at home.

Once again, I walk with the player's shots for the second time with Lauri against the Lakers. I won't tell anything new - as I said last time, mega aggressive Lauri is averaging 30 points this season, with 20.6 shots made on average against the Lakers' stars. He always adds extra motivation in our previous meetings, as he made 21 shots and then followed with 8 field goals against OKC, who were realistically buried by Suomi, but I believe Markkanen will return to his strengths and make his shots against the Lakers if he wants to, because this team is not as intimidating as OKC. I am expecting over 20 field goal attempts from him here.

Xavi should start in this match. The game is nothing special, the players are secondary and not even close to Barco's talent. Barco's lineup is strong, with many options, and many did not lose to Efes, so there should be a desire to play here.

In the last 5 matches, United scored 2 or more goals. As United's defense continues to struggle, they must focus on scoring, which they have been able to do recently with strong newcomers. Although Everton is not a very scoring team, the game at Old Trafford will be played in United's style, so the red devils must be productive.

Once again, at home, United shows a stable performance and they are very capable, so we should expect nothing but a victory against Everton. There are some injuries, but United has changed their face and even when trailing, they are able to win matches. I believe there is a solid chance for United, playing at home, against such an opponent as Everton.

We will take advantage of Copenhagen's angular superiority against Kairat. I was a little surprised by the proposed line of -1.5 handicap in the middle. It's hard for me to imagine how the team will play their matches 100% after such long periods, but that distance is a bit of a coincidence, especially with the Kazakhs being in the Champions League at the moment. But for other clubs, it's just a small hurdle and they can just forget about it, while Kairat always has to go through such distances on away games. It will definitely have an impact. And looking at the statistics, they easily give away corners in away games. In the qualifiers against Celtic, it was 15-3 on away corners, then against Sporting 8-3, and against Inter 9-3. Losing corners with big numbers, I don't see what could have changed there.
