SAW VS EXFINEST:

Two of the BEST B tier teams out there right now known for being underdogs and playing like gods when we least expect them to.

 

SAW:

Greatest PORTUGUESE team that ever existed completely out classing the other teams produced from their country. Unlike the others, they are more consistent and stays true to their skills as many fans hope to see. 
Although they have their downs, SAW has always put on a good show and only loss simply because their opponents were better that time. Cant go wrong with SAW!

After story and (especially) ewjerkz joined their team 4 months ago, the team improved tremendously.  ewjerkz has been able to create so many opportunities and openings for his team to play on has been game changing.

In the last tournament - ELISA Invitational Fall 2022,

SAW won 7 out of 8 GAMES placing 1st with their most notable performance being their victory against GAMERLEGION, MOVISTAR, TYLOO and ENDPOINT.

Form is PERFECT right now with ewjerkz being the center of it all but can the MOMENTUM keep them going? 
 

EX-FINEST:

Ranking 46th, these guys performed way past expectations just like SAW did. Who would've thought huh.

Just before on their ‘old’ team FINEST, they were losing against C-Tier teams like Bluejays, Kyiv and MASONIC. But after the rebrand to ex-finest, unsure why but maybe corporation issues, they are now more independent and have performed better because SNAX is now on the team!

At only 26 days old, they defeated SPROUT TWICE 2-1 , AURORA and ETERNAL Fire!

impressive, with HADES and SNAX together, they are unstoppable not until they met GAMERLEGION 😞

In the last match, those guys obliterated finest and went on to take a huge turd on SNAX leaving them stumbling in the mud. Total destruction 0-2.

 

MY PREDICTION:

Both teams are great, have amazing players able to carry em so it all comes down to which team MVP is motivated enough and if their teammates can step up or not.

SAW is definitely better on paper but it is unclear if they can maintain their winstreak and momentum especially against Finest as they have HADES and SNAX who can pull the most crazy plays when the team needs it the most.

Still, I recommend betting on SAW. They have shown to be better OVERALL and has the advantage in the mappool with ANCIENT, NUKE, and D2 being their strongest maps. Finest only has D2 as the way things look now.

This match could be a 2-1 for SAW.

SAW to win

=> Panathinaikos u19 will win 1.86 odds.

Match will begin after 24 hrs 37 minutes from now… I am thinking to play u19 match prediction for the UEFA Youth League. Here, in the away game, Trencin receives Panathinaikos in his field. The result of the first meeting wasin favor of the Panathinaikos - played 5 days ago! I will say you then that Panathinaikos had a good advantage..tomorrow Trencin will have to go forward to win back 0-2..thus they will expose the rear and open up the zone. Panathinaikos football players will feel like a fish in water..after all, playing number two is their strong point., I won’t be surprised at the defeat, because these leagues are very risky but I play very carefully! i will bet on winning of Pana…-

Going for a Brazilian Serie A game on Tuesday and I have spotted a bit of an anomaly, normally under over goal bets are around 1.60 to 2.00 for either under or over 2.5 goals. I was looking at this game on Bet365 and noticed that the over 2.5 goals for this game was very high. I checked the teams form an statistics and saw that both teams have a plus goal difference and both teams had conceded quite a few goals.  Sao Paulo V's Athletico Mineiro are 8th and 7th in the league respectively and have averaged over 1 goal for and against all season. So coming into the last few games of the Brazilian Serie A season I think we will see some goals and I think both teams will score and Sao Paulo will probably win but my pick for this match is Over 2.5 goals @2.50 on Bet365

UEFA - Champions League

Real Madrid vs. Celtic

Observation- Real Madrid is 3-1-1 up against Celtic whom is 0-2-3. In the last 5 games Celtic only got a goal in 3 and the temas they were playing were not a top team like Madrid, there having trouble winning and scoring ( 28th in league with a 0.6 goal average). Real Madrid is 6th in the league for goals a game with 2 and are 1st in the league in shots with 15.2 per game. In the last 5 games Madrid never let more than 1 goal in and 2 of them were shut-outs ( 0 goals).  Thibaut Courtois is tough to get past and is probably the best goalkeeper in the league. I feel Celtic will not score. 

prediction is both teams will NOT score for 2.05

1. Milan currently occupies the second position in the tournament and even a draw will be enough to qualify for the Champions League playoffs from second place.

2. They are doing very well in the regular season, sitting in third place with eight wins in 12 rounds. However, this weekend they suffered a rather unexpected 1-2 away defeat to Torino , despite having a four-game winning streak before that.

3, Team will miss Ibrahimovic, Florenzi, Calabria and goalkeeper Manan cannot take part in this fight.

4. Salzburg got off to a very good start and suffered their first defeat in the group stage only last week against London Chelsea (1:2) in an incredibly hard fight.

5. In the domestic championship, things are much better, because they have excellent performance. They have already scored 30 goals in 14 rounds, however, the competitors are also good. By the way, the lead over Sturm is only two points in the current draw. The club recently beat Hartberg with a minimum score of 1:0.

Bet: Total over 2.5 goals

Odds: 1.65

Time: November 2, 10:20 Pm CEST ( 27 hrs left )

Juventus have already lost any chance of continuing to fight in the Champions League, but under certain circumstances, they may lose their participation in the second most important European tournament. They are now far from optimal conditions and have serious difficulties with the team, having lost a huge number of key performers due to injuries. In the last round of Serie A, they" could hardly cope with the Leece and gave a lot of strength in this team, which will definitely affect the physical condition of the players. As for PSG, the club is now in great shape, has gained amazing progress and is moving very powerfully in all tournaments where it takes part. Particularly pleased are the three attacking players, who are good individually, but in this team they give simply fantastic football in attack. Yes, the Parisians have already guaranteed themselves a place in the playoffs, but the fight for the top of the table is not over yet and Benfica may well take the first rank..

My betting pick will be PSG win 1.60 odds.

My prediction for 03.10.22:
Matteo Arnaldi vs Liam Broady These two tennis players will meet for the first time in a head-to-head match. 
Both players are in good shape, so the odds are not that much different for them as they play almost exactly the same. The statistics show that Matteo has lost 3 matches out of 5, at the same time Liam is doing much better than Matteo and he has lost 1 match out of 5 lately. I think that in this match there will most likely be two sets, but without tie-breaks can't be avoided. I wish I could say it would be better to bet on total more than 20.5, but there is a chance that it will not work, as only Liam Broady used to finish the match on two sets, the same is true for Matteo Arnaldi.

But from my experience and what I´ve already said I´m going to make my bet on Liam Broady winning, he´ll have all chances to beat Matteo Arnaldi and reach the final of the ATP Challenger in Bergamo.
THE MATCH WILL START IN EXACTLY 24 HOURS 13 MINUTES, BELOW WILL BE THE EXACT CET (CENTRAL EUROPEAN TIME) TIME OF PUBLICATION OF THIS PREDICTION
