Playing against Baskonia and even on their court, it seems like a small total. Barca after finishing the Euroleague season will definitely not come with such moods to make up for their defense, although Pascual would like to. It's hard to get motivated after such a loss, but the offensive team has players capable of attacking, especially when playing against Baskonia. There won't be Satoransky, but in my opinion, this is even better for the overs. Baskonia's game is fast and focused on offense, they know Barca well and that by slowing down the game, they would decrease their chances of winning.
We continue with the Spanish talent, which demonstrates something incredible, climbing in the rankings and already breaking records for the youngest player. His mature game not only surprises, but also allows us to believe and support him in the game against another young talent, Fonseca. Brazil has an impressive forehand, but often makes mistakes. In my opinion, the lack of stability for Brazil will be a crucial aspect in the match against Jodar.
Kroatia strongly lifted its level in the recent weeks, dominating in Madrid and sending home famous names. I think Argentina will also perform well, as this will only be their second match in Madrid. Echeveris started the year well, shining in the South American tournaments with Peru, but after coming to Europe, he lost his game a bit. The last match against Offner was quite difficult and challenging for Peru. I believe Dino will continue his strong performance from the Peruvian stage and into the next stage.
Chekas is playing very well in this ground season, showing a solid game. In Madrid, they easily dealt with their opponents. Rindernech, for now, is not demonstrating anything impressive to be considered the favorite of the match. On this court and on this day, I give the advantage to the Czech player.
In my opinion, Nava is highly underrated. The guy can shoot with a pretty good aim, of course mistakes are inevitable, but on a good day I think he could even beat Fils.
The Frenchman returned even stronger after his injury and has been showing a solid game, although the last match against Buse was particularly tough and a win was achieved with difficulty.
I think a 4.5 handicap is a great choice for this game.
This team has reached the limit of 3 out of 4 matches against Peru. Neptūnas looks good again after a weaker period, and Panevėžys as well, so both teams are in good form. As both teams seem to be doing well, I think we should expect usual numbers in offense, as both teams have a lot of potential on offense, and the game against Neptūnas is always fast-paced and focused on offense.
As a young strategist from the side of Nevėžis, I definitely do not trust and even though another coach has joined Nevėžis, Gargždai is my clear favorite for the upcoming game. Out of the 5 matches played between the two teams, Gargždai won 4, even though the last 3 were played at home, but the latter team won all of the matches. Nevėžis seems to be very weak and Gargždai still has a chance to rise higher, so I think that this coefficient is being taken.
The Porto team has only the local league left, where they have a 7 point advantage with 4 rounds remaining, but these points are very important for the team. In their away games, the Porto team has collected 40 points in 15 league matches, winning 85% of their games, and their 30 scored goals show that they play solidly in the attack. However, with 4 losses in their last 5 matches against Estrela, it shows poor form, and being one of the weakest teams in the league, they do not have many chances against the top teams this season. Therefore, I believe that Porto will have an easy victory.
The Marseille club, fighting for a place in the Champions League, secured the 3rd spot and a direct qualifying spot. Marseille is the 2nd highest scoring team in the league, and at home, they only trail league title contenders PSG and Lens. Nice surprisingly eliminated Strasbourg from the cup in an away game, but they are one of the worst away teams and are likely to return to their normal situation after a victory. Although Marseille has not been performing well lately, they always play well at home and are clearly the best team compared to their opponents, which is why they have achieved many victories at home. This can also be expected in the upcoming match.
Over (Rio Ave pražangų Total rez. over 13.5) @1.800 8/10
They should calmly enter the half-time break of this match. The referee is one of the top whistle blowers in terms of average calls, around ~31 fouls. Rio will try to manipulate something, take away that ball, etc., but the referee is very easygoing. So both teams will gather a lot of penalties here. The choice is for the guests because they are stronger than the hosts.
Snooker, World Championship, Sheffield... The quarter-finals, out of twenty-five matches. One of the most promising players this season, Iran's Hossein V. (31 years old), has reached the stage of defeating Jud T. (36 years old) in this championship. To achieve victory in this format, a small miracle will be needed. The Briton's season has been disappointing so far, with a few frustrating losses, but there is still hope.
I like the odds for Brazil. Both are young, talented, etc. I am rooting more for Joao here. Even though Jodaras defeated him yesterday, his clay game is simply pitiful. Jodaras' main weakness is a weak second serve, I believe the Brazilian will take advantage of that. Maybe it will go to 3 sets, but Brazil seems superior to me and will likely sweep Peru with him.
Last night Midzmicius played with Shelton, it was absolutely cringeworthy to watch Shelton's return game. Within 3 hours, he couldn't even get 1 break point against a completely mid-level player, who also had a mid-level serve. In other words, the American was a disaster. Meanwhile, Tomas is a super stable and serious clay player, so the opportunity for him to devour the Americans and Midzmicius is still available!
Although Gaubas is considered a prominent wrestler, I have no doubt about his ability to win one set. His techniques work well and he can defend himself well, so if there is anything to hope for, it is a good result in the first set. Later, there may be psychological difficulties if the first set is unsuccessful. However, physically, being strongly built and having a taller height, Canada can offer more than Gaubas, especially with the added psychological aspect this year. The odds are worth the risk and the attempts.
