Red Bull Salzburg VS Chelsea 

This time in group e in champion league Red Bull Salzburg is going head to head with Chelsea starting on 25 Oct 2022 at 16:45 UTC at Red Bull Arena stadium, Salzburg city, Austria. If we see the group e point table Chelsea stood at number 1 and Salzburg at number 2. So their will head to head competition between this two team in this match. As  the current situation Chelsea played their best games in the last few games In the premier league so I would say that they remain also constant In this match On the other hand Austrian champion Salzburg also played their last few games in austraian league.So their will be head to head competition. As I mentioned  their will be head to head competition I will bet on both team to score because although Salzburg have the home vanue advantage I will say they have tough chance for win because of Chelsea team current form and wold class player. That why I will bet on both the team score.

My prediction for this match is Both team to score- YES( odd 1.75)

NFL 

Chicago Bears VS New England Patriots 

Observation- The last time these 2 teams meet the score was 38 - 31 but that was in 2018. The bears have been good out the gate and are 2-4-0 and the Patriots have also been ok out the gate with 3-3-0 record. Chicago's points per game is 20 points and New England is 23.5 points per game. Both these teams need a win here but New England is a way better team but not on defence so i think the over here is a lock. 

Prediction is over 41 at 2.02

match is after 23 hours well enough time to place bet…

=> Sassuolo win 1.98 odds..

Before the start of the match Sassuolo takes 9th place in the championship. 3 wins, 3 draws, 4 losses, 12 scored and 12 conceded. Verona is currently ranked 18th with 1 win, 2 draws and 7 losses. The team scored 9 and conceded 19 goals. Last personal matches: 3 home wins, 1 draw, 1 defeat. Sassuolo is clearly superior in class and in match to his opponent. At home, while with weaker teams they only win (Lecce. Saleritana). Verona is away, on the contrary, it only loses against stronger teams (Fiorentina, Lazio). In this match, they will have to try hard not to lose to Sassuolo. Well, Sassuolo with such opponents definitely need to take 3 points, and personal matches between them, again, in favor of a more SASSS…. I highly appreciate the victory of them.

This match scheduled after 23 hours from my pick published.
1. Rio Ave is only 14th raml in the standings with nine points. It seems that the team looks very good in attack and has already managed to score 13 times in nine rounds, but conceded 17 goals, which is one of the worst indicators in the league.
2. In the previous round with Benfica (2:4), the strength was only enough for the starting 12 minutes of the match only.
3. Portimonense performs a little better than today's counterparts in the championship, because they managed to win five wins in nine matches, which allowed them to take a place in the middle of the rankings, and only two points to the European Cup zone. Nevertheless, the last two away matches ended in away defeats.

Bet: Under 2.5 goals
Odds: 1.7

MASONIC are ranked 62nd in the world ranking. The team on the tier-2 stage shows unstable results and alternate victories with defeats for a month. Recall that the team lost to ECSTATIC in the previous match, defeated BLUEJAYS  and lost to paiN Gaming. It is shown that four of the five previous matches with the participation of the Danes took place on three maps. At the moment, the team has the highest win rate on Vertigo, where they have not allowed themselves to be beaten by anyone in three months. Sinners are located on the 61st place in the world ranking. The team is also not very successful in progressing, and it continues to stagnate in the tier-2 scene. They have good matches during which they wins match after match, but then stays on a losing streak. Now the Czechs are in more or less good shape and have completed a series of three victories. Note that they managed to deal with Entropiq Prague, Sashi and Wolsung. Their strongest maps are Mirage and Overpass where they have a 60% win rate. 

My betting pick will be Sinners win 1.771 odds .. SINNNNNERRS WIN please!

 More than 20 hrs left for this bet.. good luck friends.

FURIA ACADEMY VS OG ACADEMY

Good odds on Furia? Wtf? This seems to good to be true!

FURIA ACADEMY:

Placing 5th in the WePlay Group Play A is Furia academy, this team is known to be one of the more experienced Academy teams put there because all their core members have more than 6 months of playing together unlike the others who are constantly switching out players.

Furia is a good team, especially with a fragger like decenty but the REASON why they are losing the past couple games is because they were playing with their COACH 😂

I dont want to be mean but after their better core member - zmb was replaced temporarily by msr (coach), things quickly began to fall apart VERY FAST in the game.

Although he is the strategist, he sucks at gun fights and holding his position. Well that makes sense since these guys don’t play professionally often.

In their last H2H match couple days ago with msr against OG, they won 16-11 with decenty carrying the entire team on his back. 33 KILLS, 11 DEATHS. And yes, msr had a mere 6 kills much lower than everyone else but just 1 below Furia’s koala. (Imo, they should switch out koala)

 

OG ACADEMY:

Placing 6th in the same group as Furia Academy, the only teams they won in this group play is Apeks Rebels and fnatic rising, losing to Furia Academy, Flames ascent and mouz NXT.

So far this team has not done anything notable thus far except for their last match against Fnatic Rising which some would argue that FR was not playing at their best even though it was on their best map.

OG academy currently has a 36% percent winrate last 3 months and their only best map currently is Overpass. Their newest member Awayken who is trying out lacks experience and so is expectedly performing badly in their matches against good teams.

 

MY PREDICTION:

With the way OG is right now, I dont think they can beat Furia Academy especially with decenty and zmb being back for this match… Furia Academy also has played more matches, has a 52% winrate and have the advantage in the mappool all except OVERPASS which is their weakest.

For the odds, I have no idea why OG is favored by bookmakers but what I can tell you is MANY people/fans are rooting for Furia Academy and placing money on them too. 
Unexpectedly good odds… I dont know what I’m missing here… Furia academy does have a record of beating OG academy all 3 times in the past… but whatever,

FURIA ACADEMY TO WIN!
