I will pick my prediction from match between Richard Gasquet and Roberto Carballes-Baena.
Pick: Richard Gasquet to win at 1.8 odds in bet365.

Richard Gasquet has recently gained a good momentumm. At 36 years old, Richard demonstrates quite a good level of tennis. Over the past month, the he reached the semi-finals at the Challenger in Lyon, where he lost to Pedro Cachin in straight sets. He also played in the third round of Wimbledon. In the tournament of the London, Gasquet win over Joao Sousa and Mackenzie McDonald, and in the third round he lost to Botic Van de Zandschulp. Roberto Carballes-Baena finally managed to break the series of failures that lasted more than a month. Last week, Roberto played well at the Challenger in Amersfoort. He lost in straight sets in finals. Carballes Baena has 29 wins and 17 losses on clay this season.
I think Gasquet will win, Gasquet also leads the head to head by defeating Baena two times im straight sets.

INFO

The key differentiating factor between the AL and the NL is that while the AL permits a designated hitter (any player that bats in place of a pitcher), the NL does not allow one. This results in a higher number of runs averaged by AL teams compared to NL teams, because of the extra solid batter in the AL team lineups.

The American League (AL) leads the series with 46 victories to the National League (NL)'s 43, and a 378-372 run advantage; two games ended in ties. The NL has the longest winning streak of 11 games from 1972 to 1982; the AL held a 13-game unbeaten streak from 1997 to 2009 (including a tie in 2002).

Major League baseball came up with a compromise: it announced that for the first time since the American League had joined the National League back in 1903, it would expand. Both the AL and NL decided to add two new teams to their ranks, with priority given to cities that did not already have a team.

First pitch is scheduled for 8 p.m. ET july 18th

LETS DIG IN 

The American League has dominated the MLB All-Star Game of late, winning 20 of the last 24 contests and each of the past eight. Six of the victories during the AL's current streak have taken place in National League ballparks, including last year's 5-2 win at Coors Field in Denver. The AL attempts to continue its mastery when it takes on the NL in the 2022 MLB All-Star Game at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles on Tuesday. Many of the triumphs during the AL's run have been close battles, as 18 of its last 20 wins have been by three runs or fewer.

The NL has a ton of power at its disposal, as seven players on the roster have hit at least 20 home runs this season. Leading the charge is Philadelphia's Kyle Schwarber, who is first in the senior circuit with 29 homers in his first year with the team. Atlanta's Austin Riley has 27 blasts, while Pete Alonso of the New York Mets has belted 24 home runs and leads the majors with 78 RBIs

The AL isn't lacking in the home run department either as six players have belted 20 or more this season. Aaron Judge of the New York Yankees is having a monster campaign as he leads the major leagues with 33 home runs. The 30-year-old slugger went 5-for-6 with two home runs, four RBIs and five runs scored over his final two games before the break.

i also wanna point out homerun hitters ,which NL has more of normally get there homeruns of secondary pichers not starters and in this game every pitcher is either a starter or a closer. In a game your best pitcher goes for as long as he can then the reliever comes in this is where most HR are hit so its the batters with better on base percentage against good starters which AL has more that will dominate. The pitcher for AL , Justin Verlander, will go alot of inning before hes out and alot of batters have problems hitting or placing hits with his pitches

AL to win AT 2.02 odds

This will be my pick for the competition. I will choose the match between Federico Coria and Daniel Galan. 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 Daniel Galan at 2.11 odds which is available on Pinnacle

Federico Coria

1. Koria is doing well on the clay segment of the season.
2. He has a better balance of wins and losses on this surface.
3. His rank is 78th in world.
4. Koria came to Hamburg from Bostad, where he had a good game. In Sweden, he won first round beating Federico Delbonis. In the second match, Federico wass defeated by Andrey Rublev.

Daniel Galan

1. Daniel Galan is 113th rank in world. 
2. Because of his low rank, he was shifted to qualifier rounds.
3. Daniel won all the qualifier matches. In qualifying, he defeated Johan Nickles and Ricardo Bonadio.
4. A few months ago, Galan showed an excellent game on clay. He even won the challenger Sarasota.

Reason: Choosing Daniel because he won both their head to head match. He is playing good too in clay court.

Nikoloz Basilashvili was also in Bastad last week, and he was forced to retire from his first-round match against Hugo Gaston. This ended his eight-match winning streak in opening-round matches in the main draw of tour-level events.

Despite all the controversies surrounding him, Aslan Karatsev was able to produce a couple of good performances in Bastad last week. He won a three-setter against Lorenzo Sonego in the first round and dominated Hugo Gaston in the second round to reach the quarterfinal.

Nikoloz Basilashvili leads 5-1 (3-0 on clay). While Aslan Karatsev performed at a higher level in Bastad last week, Nikoloz Basilashvili often raises his game in Hamburg, and he also knows how to win this matchup, which makes it difficult to pick a winner in this evenly poised first-round clash.

 My bet: Nikoloz Basilashvili to win at 2.190 odds

Sorry for short note for my prediction. Picking my bet from the match between Pyunik and Dudelange, teams of equal strength will meet and I think both of them will score. Pyunik will naturally play first at home and constantly attack. Pyunik has a lot of smart players, there are Nenadovich, Hadji. Dudelange, in good shape, beat strong Tirana, and this victory will clearly add more confidence. The guests also have smart players, Sinani scores, Bozic. I think both will score as both are good in attacking.
Good luck to all my bros Sumit, Steveo, Josh, Manies, Pupperchan. I am loosing so many bets hope I win today.

URGENTIUM VS ENTERPRISE

ENTERPRISE:

Ranking 77th globally, this team has a much better form than the other *statistically*. By this I mean their players, wins, etc are more desirable. 
Even tho I said that, they are so bad. I mean it. BOTH of them are. ENTERPRISE is losing against so many teams and barely able to scrap a win against anyone decent… 

URGENTIUM:

Ranking 85th in the world. They are… questionable. The only thing this team has for them is them somehow beating the underdogs Kyiv. Well, that’s to be expected from C-Tier matches since everything is completely unpredictable! Although their players aren't as great as ENTERPRISE, they still can get wins when they need it the most.

 

MY PREDICTION:

Completely incomparable. Enterprise has won against URGENTIUM in march by 2-1 but this was a very close game. I still dont get why ENTERPRISE is the favored team here especially when they have been losing more and performing really bad lately. (Bookmakers are only looking at stats) They are both on the same boat!

best odds are URGENTIUM to WIN. I trust their abilities and they are truly one of the better underdogs in low tier matches with great odds.
