This will be my pick for the competition. I will choose the match between Serena Williams and Ajla Tomljanovic. 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 Ajla Tomljanovic win with 2.34 odds.

1. I don’t know what Serena Williams takes, she will be 41 years old in 3 weeks, and she will retire after the grand slam tournaments. 
2. Serena has only played 5 games on hard this year. 3 won and 2 lost. Went through two matches here. 
3. She beat Danka Kovinic 2:0 in straight sets and Anett Kontaveit 2:1 in three sets.
4, Ajla Tomljanovic has played 14 hard matches in just one month. 11 won and lost 3.
5. She beat Mukhova 2:0 in straight sets then Rodina 2:1 in three sets.
6. I think Tomlyanovic will win this match worth a try guys.

=> Jack Draper will win the match 1.71 odds.

Karen Khachanov had opponents Denis Kudla and Thiago Monteiro. It seemed that he would not have any problems in these matches. But he was surprised as Karen gave one set to both his opponents. However, he won so doesn’t matter much. Jack Draper has confirmed why he is considered one of the most promising young tennis players. In the first two matches he showed an excellent game. He beat Felix Auger-Aliassime and Emil Ruusuvuori easily. Jack beat them in three sets. Draper will win for sure.

MLB

Colorado VS Cincinnati 

Observation- looking into the runs allow and the ERA of these pitchers its clearly going to be a high scoring game but how high? Runs allowed for both teams are 5.1 and 5.4 so they are averaging over 5 runs each per game and even the run they get per game is a 4.2 average for both teams as well. The pitchers ERA are both 5 per game so im feeling this game should easily break 10 runs. The last time they played each other the score was 10-1 for colorado and the pitchers had way better ERA's. In the last 3 game colorado's bats have been suppressed by Atlanta so they are ancy to see a some easier pitching.  Cincinnati has ok against a tough ST louis team in the last 3 games scoring 15 runs. 

Pitchers- Colorado-Kyle Freeland-(142.0IP)(4.88ERA)(1.40WHIP)(44BB)                                                                                                                                                                               VS                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   Cincinnati- Luis Cessa-(43.2IP)(5.36ERA)(1.44WHIP)(16BB)

Prediction is over 10.5 for 2.41 odds as quoted on pinnacle

Belgian Football tonight and I am going for a game in the Belgian Pro League and the match I am going for is Club Brugge V's Cercle Brugge in the derby game. Club Brugge are currently in 3rd place and in pretty good form, Cercle Brugge on the other are 16th out 18 clubs in the league. Cercle Brugge did win their last match against Anderlect but Anderlect had a man sent off early. Club Brugge have drawn 1 and lost one in their last 2 so not in great form but I think they will see the win in with the home advantage. I think Club Brugge will win this game and that is my pick. Club Brugge win @1.61 on Bet365.

Madison Keys vs Cori Gauff, well, this is a very difficult match to analyze, both tennis players are good to me with the game, everything can be unpredictable here, like someone can go 2-0 with a blasting serves lol and play a long match in three sets, so Total I don’t advise betting, I’m betting on Keys because she’s gaining with every match, this year she won a lot and it’s noticeable that she didn’t play in vain, she has a very strong serve and looks good in returns draws, and Gauff will always be in good shape with her hard but I think Madison Keys should be able to win it..

My betting pick will be Madison Keys 2.36 odds.

Vitality vs FNATIC

VITALITY:

After the addition of the new player, the team has improved significantly compared to last season and the last match against NiP shows that! However, there are many times the team has suffered due to their lack of structure and team synergy causing them to lose many rounds.

 

FNATIC:

Ranking 27th in the world, in this current season, FNATIC has undergone a huge roster change and has shown themselves to be very capable to compete in the high leagues from online qualifications to the majors.

This new roster won against NiP 2-0 and lost a 1-2 against the #1 team in the world: NaVi putting up an incredibly good fight.

 

MY PREDICTION:

VITALITY has won 5 times in a row against FNATIC but that was against the old roster. With the new one it is quite unpredictable...

But godwoo from VIT has it covered since he is so GOOD.

OVER 2.5 matches is the best bet since as of now, VIT is very inconsistent on NUKE while FNATIC has a 100% winrate so all in all.

FNATIC wins NUKE

VITALITY WINS THEIR PICK

VITALITY WINS 2-1 maybe.

Samsonova v. Krunic
At pinnacle odds of 1.909 for total under 19

Ludmila Samsonova won her debut WTA-category title in Berlin (grass) in 2021 and then made it to the fourth round of Wimbledon on a wave of awareness. This time, she gave a great stretch on American hard court in the run-up to the USO, so we expect her to break through already in New York. Her opponent in the third round is Aleksandra Krunic, who unexpectedly left Barbora Krejcikova behind.

Surface: Hard

Speed: 6/10

Current Samsonov rating: 35

Samsonov's win balance (2022): 22-14

Samsonov's win balance (hard): 18-7

Current Krunich rating: 96

Krunic's win balance (2022): 23-20

Krunic's win balance (hard): 4-8

Statistical facts on the match Samsonova - Krunic:
Samsonova has 12 straight wins on the open hard court.

Krunic has lost seven of her last ten matches to opponents from the top-50.

Face-to-face meetings between Samsonova and Krunic:
Krunic achieved victory at Roland Garros 2021 (3-6, 6-2, 6-2).

Ludmila Samsonova vs. Alexandra Krunic:
Samsonova continues to feast in the States, and the match against Fernandez statistically just space: 83 and 71 percent of the won balls on the first and second, ten eys, zero allowed break-points. At the same time the Russian gained 13 break points. After such a performance it's uncomfortable to talk about the possible decline of Liudmila.

Krunic took advantage of the traditional Krejcikova setbacks in the second and third games, but the first set was very revealing. The Czech was hitting her shots, so the Serbian didn't have much of a chance.

In the last seven meetings with Samsonova two sets were played, only one match exceeded the total of 19 games. The Russian is serving well, regularly creates situations on the court for shots which she is confident in due to her incredible form. It is not quite clear what Krunic will offer, who looked helpless in the first set against Krejcikova.
