OG VS TSM

Im really liking the way OG is doing right now especially their tactic with using stuns and locks along with the rest of their team to pick out their enemies one by one slowly building up their economy and levels. They just don’t care if any one of their towers break, it’s about getting stronger faster to gain the advantage in team fights.

TSM is good but... they haven’t been doing as well as they would usually be. I guess it’s because they have been very unlucky with how things turn out in team battles. Timing is a very crucial factor and being a millisecond off can cost the game. 

Against TSM, OG is considerably better. OG is still ranked 3rd and TSM is rank 11. With the way OG is doing right now, they should take this win very easily. No draw!

I will pick my prediction from match between Nicholas Jarry and Albert Ramos-Vinolas.

Pick: Nicholas Jarry to win at 1.970 odds in pinnacle.

Albert Ramos-Vinolas in the opening match in Gstaad met with one of the local tennis player Dominik Stricker and beat him in three sets. The last few months have not been the best for him Although it is worth recalling that Ramos-Vinolas won one trophy this season at the beginning of the year he won the competition in Cordoba, in the final of which he defeated Alejandro Tabilo. Nicholas Jarry has already had four matches on the courts of Gstaad. He began his journey in the tournament with qualifications, where he won confident wins over Flavio Cobolli and Vit Kopriva in two sets. In the main draw, Harry in the first round defeat Thiago Monteiro in three sets And in the second round, Nicholas defat Yannick Hanfmann in two sets.

MLB 

NY Yankees VS Baltimore Orioles

Prediction - Baltimore to win 2.41

I'm swinging for the fences on this one! my observation is simple here after the homerun derby and the Al vs NL game teams got time to rest ... that is most teams .. NY hosting alot batters and pitchers for the Al game also NY is comming off a back to back game yesterday against there rivals houston whick both games were close and they lost the first, which in turn made them play harder the seconds game . now Baltimore is comming of 3-4 days of rest so there bullpen is well rested. Also need to mention that Baltimore is comming of a 10 game in a row win streak that was stopped by tampabay in which they came back and won the next game these guys are on fire and im going for the fences lol. 

Stats- the stats are jacked in NY favor in almost every department but the pitching match up is equal and like i said they are tired and Baltimore is rested!

Jameson Taillon-NYY-(100.1IP)(3.86ERA)(1.13WHIP)(12BB)
VS
Tyler Wells-Baltimore-(85.1IP)(3.38ERA)(1.08WHIP)(21BB)
=
Good match up, good odds for Baltimore.

side notes - Baltimore also has 95 homeruns this season which is resonable higher then aveage this time of the season they are on a heater and they will prove it tonight! 
           - july 12 Ben Rortvedt catch injured for yankees , july 16 Miguel Castro pitcher injured also 16th luls Severino also pitcher injured and on july 17th Ron Marinacclo injured also pitcher all out for 15 days!
           - Baltimore is at home = advantage + weather is sunny and hot! .. no rain = no postpone or delay
           -** only 1 yankee hit a home run of this pitcher all season thats insaine judge is the only one with 4 hits on him(the whole season) no one else in the LEAGUE has hit 4 hits off him WTF makes me more comfident on my choice lets go Baltimore !

Spirit is the top CIS team at the moment and are the only ones representing their region in the tournament. Of course, in the first match against Deboosters, they won easily, but in the match with PSG.LGD, they lost badly and they did not last more than 30 minutes on any of the maps. 

Secret top the Group B standings and have four points. At first, the team dealt with Tundra very confidently, and later proved their superiority over Deboosters. the team looked very cool against the background of PSG.LGD, from whom they managed to take the first map. Puppey and his team can even claim a direct hit in the semi-finals if they play well in the remaining matches.

Betting tip: Team Secret will win 2 odds.

Borna Coric has worked really hard since returning from the injury break, despite things not going his way most often, and has finally made it to the quarterfinal of a tour-level event for the first time since ATP Rotterdam (500) in March 2021.

Alex Molcan avoided a consecutive round of 16 exits from ATP Hamburg by knocking out the defending champion Pablo Carreno Busta this week. The Spaniard created twice as many breakpoints, but the Slovakian was able to save most of them and snatch the win, 6-3 1-6 7-6.

The 24-year-old is one of the most improved players on the main tour this year, and he has delivered results whenever he has stayed fit in these seven months. He converted two of his previous three quarterfinal appearances on clay this year into runner-up finishes in ATP Marrakech and Lyon.

Borna Coric is different class, but his lack of match-time at the top level and fitness issues in recent months level things out a bit, and give Alex Molcan a decent chance in the pair's first meeting.

 My bet: Alex Molcan to win at 1.952 odds

This will be my pick for the competition. I will choose the match between Alejandro Davidovich-Fokina and Lorenzo Musetti. 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 Lorenzo Musetti to win 2.3 odds which is available on Pinnacle

Alejandro Davidovich-Fokina

1. Fokina till now manage to show good games.
2. Davidovich Fokina even managed to update the record for the fastest serve in the season. 
3. In one of the matches, he got to the mark at a speed of 252 km / h.
4. It is worth noting that Fokina won both of his matches at the tournament quite confidently.
5. Botik Van De Zandshulp and Josef Kovalik were beaten in straight sets.

Lorenzo Musetti

1. The last tournament in which the Lorenzo performed successfully was the Challenger in Forli. Musetti won that tournament.
2. Lorenzo defeated Francesco Passaro in the final. 
3. Musetti won the tournament, but almost all of his matches were played in three sets.
4. Lorenzo also started the tournament in Hamburg with a hard win. In the opening match, he barely defeated Dusan Lajovic (6:7, 7:6, 6:3). In the second match, everything turned out much easier. Emil Ruusuvuori was beaten 7:5, 6:4.

Reason: Don't know whom to pick, both are good in their own ways. Lorenzo is unstable but when he is on roll he can play really good.
taking risk and picking Musseti.

FUNPLUS PHOENIX VS FNATIC

These two teams are each other's biggest rivals, meeting five times now since the 2022 season starting from VCT 2022: EMEA Stage 1 Challengers, where FPX claimed their first victory against Fnatic 2-0. Unfortunately, that was also the only victory over Fnatic they’ve had this year. Pretty disheartening since funplus is the best underdogs 😞

FNATIC:

Extremely powerful on ICEBOX, they stand proud with a 100% Winrate on this map! Along with Derke and his phenomenal performance on his signature agent: Chamber. This player makes it so fkin dangerous for any enemy team that goes against them. He dropped TWO 30 bombs in this tournament using his operator and he barely ever misses! Every team has to use so much utility against this guy just to stall him for a bit. 
 

FUNPLUS:

This team has demonstrated remarkable adaptability in their two matchups against DRX. After losing the first match against DRX (They had a sub), FPX sprung back to life and destroyed DRX on their map of choice surprising everybody especially how DRX is considered one of the best teams on Fracture. 
 

MY PREDICTION:

FUNPLUS TO WIN. In terms of statistics, Fnatic falls behind in terms of players, maps proficiency and everything else (the only thing fnatic has is Derke and his op skills).

As of late, FNATIC has been very shaky so I doubt they can win this again against FUNPLUS with how they are doing lately…

im taking a break from csgo predictions, those 3rd rate teams suck
