I will pick my prediction from match between Karen Khachanov and Jan-Lennard Struff

Pick: Jan-Lennard Struff to win at 2.16 odds in pinnacle.

Jan-Lennard Struff just recently won the home challenger in Braunschweig. In the final of that tournament, he defeated Maximilian Marterer in two sets and did not lose a single set during those matches in tournament. Last season, he left the competition in Hamburg following the results of the first round, in which he lost to Laslo Djere but this time he is in full confidence. Karen Khachanov returns to service after almost a month of inactivity. Karen last appeared on the court in an official match on June 18. There he took part in competitions in Halle, in which he lost in the quarterfinals, where he lost in three sets to one of the local tennis players Oscar Otte. Khachanov showed his best result this season in January, reaching the final at the Adelaide competition.
Khachanov month was without playing practice so I think it will be difficult for him to win the match.

I will post the betting tip for tournament in Yannick Hanfmann vs Zizou Bergs, I will choose the victory of Bergs here. Bergs had an excellent match against Bagnis, he had a cannon serve, in the draws he dictated his play for most of the game, he made many aces, there were many winners on his games, it was difficult for anyone to beat Bagnis in draws, but Bergs did it well, he even in set 1 did not know what to do, in the 2nd set Bergs dipped a little in the game and Bagnis began to drag him into long draws and Bergs gave this set, but in 3rd Bergs began to play perfectly and won. I saw the match highlights Bergs is very good, Hanfman is weaker than Bagnis and not very good in draws, they have the same style of playing, but Bergs is in better shape now, so I choose Bergs.

Betting tip: Bergs to win 1.826 odds

A rollercoaster of emotions that last match was. NaVi was just so close to winning but FaZe stole it from them by just a couple rounds and their luckiest site fast paced execution. It was such a drastic change of tactics that NaVi was not prepared for!

KYIV vs MASONIC

KYIV:

Ranking 52nd in the world, although lacking in many areas, this team does not disappoint! Many people doubt this team and many would not usually consider them as the favourite but holy god, they always pull some random trick under their sleeves somehow able to claim victory. On a 52% winrate, they are a gamble to bet on which is a good thing since they always get good odds on them.

MASONIC:

Ranking 50th in the world, this team performs on the same level as Kyiv but there’s one thing that separates them and that is how MASONIC performs better in terms of mutual opponents. They have 2 victories against Tricked while KYIV has a defeating 1 loss without any resistance from KYIV.

 

MY PREDICTION:

Players, form, and everything else all seems to be on equal standing. The last time they had a match against eachother resulted in KYIVs victory by a close game but that was a while ago.

I want to believe in KYIV doing it again so my money is on them since their tactics are quite unique and have the ability to turn the tables to their side under the right conditions.

After back-to-back baseball bet losses, time to shift to tennis betting. This will be my pick for the competition. I will choose the match between Alexander Ritschard and Joao Sousa. First, I will tell you my tip, then I will explain the preview of the match and the reason behind picking the bet. My betting pick is Joao Sousa 1.662 odds which is available on Pinnacle

Alexander Ritschard:
1. Alexander Ritschard surprised with his performance at Wimbledon. 
2. Alexander Ritschard managed to win the qualification and get into the main tournament. 
3. There he played against Stefanos Tsitsipas. It was not possible to beat him.
4. However, Alexander Ritschard is not successful on clay.

Joao Sousa:
1. At the tournament in Gstaad, Sousa will make another attempt to earn ranking points. 
2. The last successful match for Joao Sousa was Geneva tournament.
3. In May, he reached the final of that event, where he lost to Casper Ruud. After that, Joao lost 6 out of 7 matches.
4. Before Gstaad, Sousa managed to visit Bostad. Already in the first round, Joao Sousa lost to Davidovich Fokina (4:6, 2:6).

Reason: I am picking Joao Sousa because in head to head he beaten Ritchard two times. I think Joao Sousa will dominate here.

KYIV VS MASONIC MATCH POSTPONED TO 24 HOURS FROM NOW.

I will instead make another prediction! And this time it will be short since there is not much to talk about these C-Tier teams.

SANGAL VS IRON BRANCH

I have seen both their gameplay and there is A LOT of inconsistencies with their playstyles and performance. One time they’ll be aggressive and another super passive playing like rats. Both teams are subjected to harassment and negative opinions from players and betters alike.
 

So this match is… a 50/50.

However if there is anything worth mentioning is.. how Iron Branch is actually in better form than Sangal although IB is ranked 1 below Sangal. 56th and 57th ranked globally.

IB players *on paper* have higher ADR (Average damage), higher K/D, and higher impact weighted across all 5 players.

IB is also on a 9 winning streak on Dust2 (100% winrate) and has the advantage on 3 other maps than Sangal whereas Sangal only has 3.

So the best odds to pick would be over 2.5+ maps since first map picked by IB should easily be won and the rest is decided by how they both perform which should be in favor of Sangal due to them being more prepared and experienced.

OH NO ! no MLB today ... im doing a deep dive into the ALL STAR GAME TOMMOROW should be a very fun game to watch with all the super-stars this year. hmmmm ok 

UEFA - EURO Women

Iceland VS France 

ok im going to be honest here im basing my guess off the bet on the score and pinnacle. Iceland they are giving u 3 to 1 for just them to score and 1.3 for them not to score, they are giving 5 to 1 for them to both to score in the first half which both is telling me iceland wont score. 

k ill dig a lil into it ... good thing i did Iceland is in second and france is in first. Iceland in there last few matches have had no problem scoring and has scored 5 goals against Belarus and 3 goals against poland . Franced scored 5 goals against Italy and also 5 against Finland so my conclusion is both these teams will score and the odds are juiced at 2.15

Jasmine Paolini made a 125K quarterfinal in Contrexeville two weeks ago but is still on a six-match losing run on tour since Charleston. She has significantly cooled off compared to last year when she won her first WTA title in Portoroz, along with a semifinal in Courmayeur and quarters in Linz.

Anna Karolina Schmiedlova has played 10 clay-court tournaments this year and collected 11 wins across them, though only two in tour-level main draw settings. She has ended nine of her 16 campaigns in 2022 in the first round itself, including losing to Yulia Putintseva in Budapest, 6-4, 6-1.

Jasmine Paolini leads 5-1, including 2-0 on clay courts. The pair split their 2021 meetings but the Italian reasserted herself when they met in the first round of the Melbourne Summer Set this January. She has the edge on home soil as the Slovak plays in Palermo for the first time.

 My bet: Jasmine Paolini to win at 1.564 odds
