This competition is all about being 100% about your picks and most of the time I am not 100% but this Pick I am 100% 😄 Mexico V's Sweden in an international friendly game before the start of the World Cup, now these type of games can be hard to predict! Mexico are heading for Qatar but Sweden did not qualify, this gives us quite a lot of information about the friendly match. Firstly none of the Mexican players will want to pick up an injury in this game, secondly Sweden will be trying out new players and tactics. The Mexican players though will be wanting to make sure they are picked in their opening game of the World cup, so they will want to impress. So my prediction for this match is that Mexico will start fast and go 2 or 3 goals up and then in the second half Sweden will pull one or 2 goals back. My only fear aboutthis pick is that it may end in a 1-1 draw or something. Pick for Wednesday 16th Mexico Win @2.14 on Pinnacle

Oman vs Germany

Oman is a strong representative of the Asian region. In qualifying for the World Cup, he competed with Australia in the fight for the joints, but lost to her by only one point. After that, the team played four friendly matches against teams from their region, but only Nepal was able to beat - 2:0. It is worth noting that in none of the matches more than two goals were scored, which should be taken into account when predicting Oman in the upcoming meeting.

Germany qualified ahead of schedule for the World Cup, beating the nearest rival by nine points. At the same time, in the last draw of the League of Nations, the coach was clearly determined to experiment. At the same time , they almost led to relegation from the A - League . So, the team lost to Hungary and beat Italy, and the rest of the matches ended in a draw. This made it possible to take third place and keep a residence permit in the elite division, which will undoubtedly be reflected in the prediction for Germany in the upcoming meeting.

The Oman national team has progressed recently. But it is much inferior in the class of Germany. At home, she may well score, especially since the opponent will certainly have a wide rotation. But a goal is unlikely to save Oman from a major defeat.

 My bet: Over 3.75 goals with 2.030 odds

NHL 

San Jose VS Vegas - start 2 am the 16th (CET) 

observation is vegas has been on a good run with a record of 13-3 and a goals per game percentage of 3.7. San jose has been on a 2 game winning streak and scoring over 3 goals in there last 6 games against some top teams. I really want to point out that vegas scored 24 goals in there last 5 games which is nuts. So with both teams on heaters and scoring well i see this game going over, there last matchup was 4-2 for vegasand the game before that was 7-3 also for vegas (both games over) but San Jose was not on there game like they are now. i feel this game will break 6.

Prediction is over 5.5 for 1.66 (Pinnacle)

The last 2 matches of Medvedev evoke not very positive trends in the form and readiness of 1 rank of Russia. In draws, Daniil is frankly passive, the course of exhausting the opponent only works when he is clearly lower in class or physically unprepared / unstable.  The game near the net causes frank pain, and when the opponent responds briefly to the half court in draws, Daniil simply cannot shoot for a relegation, but continues to roll cotton wool ..  Yes, Medvedev is better at the reception than Tsitsipas, but the Greek in the match with Novak gave only 1 serve, and in fairness, Novak is a master of blurting out an opponent at any moment of the match. Plus, for Stefanos, his stability on the pitch and the desire to attack in draws, but without too much risk, and I think Medvedev will give such opportunities with his passive game. 
My betting pick will be total over 23.5 games 2.14 odds.

1. After finishing 10th last season, Salford got off to a strong start and have yet to give up hope of making their way to League One. On account of Amish eight wins and four draws, which correspond to 28 points and ninth position in the standings.

2. The offensive team looks weak for the league, which differed only 19 goals, while they played reliably on defense. After losing to Rochdale (0:1), the hosts tied with Wimbledon (0:0).

3. Peterborough  last season did not hold a position in the second most powerful league in England. The start of the new championship for them  is going well and in 18 rounds the team has won 10 wins and a draw, which is 31 points and fourth in the standings.

4. The attack looks very powerful, which differed 34 times. After defeating Cambridge United (1:0), today's guests lost to Exeter (2:3). In the first game against today's opponent they could not beat.

Bet: Peterborough win

Odd: 1.84

Stefanos Tsitsipas vs Daniil Medvedev
Over 22.5 games on pinnacle odds 1.82

My preview:
The program of Thursday's game day in Turin will close the losers of the first round of group battles - Stefanos Tsitsipas and Daniil Medvedev. The history of the guys' performance in the ATP Finals is diametrically opposite. If the Greek after his incredible debut with the coveted trophy over his head for the third year in a row cannot start with a victory, the Russian, on the contrary, for the first time since his debut fiasco started with a defeat. Last year's clash at the London Open ended with Apollo defeating Medved in two sets, but what can he expect this time?

Surface: indoor hard court

Cover speed: 9/10

Current Tsitsipas rating: 3

Tsitsipas' win balance (2022): 60-23

Tsitsipas win balance (hard indoors): 17-8

Medvedev current rating: 5

Medvedev (2022) win balance: 45-17

Medvedev (hard indoors) win balance: 8-4

Statistical facts for the Tsitsipas - Medvedev match:
Tsitsipas has lost the previous four meetings against holders of strong input ball.

Medvedev has lost his last four clashes with top-10 representatives.

Face-to-face meetings between Tsitsipas and Medvedev:
Medvedev leads 7-3 in head-to-head encounters, but is 1-1 par with Tsitsipas on indoor hard court.

Prediction on match Stefanos Tsitsipas vs Daniil Medvedev:
There are questions for both. Why did Tsitsipas take so long with Novak Djokovic? And why couldn't Medvedev take the game away from his once so-called client, Andrei Rublev? Well, everything is clear with the former, he came out relaxed. The Greek, after an instant service loss, slowly but surely began to recover. In the second set he started to play much better: he played his serve more effectively, he began to press his fearsome opponent more assuredly and he even began to go to the net. But what about the second player? From the first exchange of blows the Russian locked himself in at the back line and did not know what to do with his compatriot's aggression, and the first set he won was partly the merit of the linesmen who made critical errors in the tie-break.

THE MATCH WILL START IN EXACTLY  23 HOURS 59 MINUTES
BELOW YOU CAN SEE THE EXACT CET (CENTRAL EUROPEAN TIME) AT THE TIME OF PUBLICATION OF THIS FORECAST.

=> Total over 22.5 games 1.8 odds.

Tsitsipas at the start of the ATP Final Tournament played with Novak Djokovic and lost to him in two sets. Stefanos looked very good in the match. On the start of competitions in Turin, he plyed two finals - in Astana and Stockholm. And at the Masters in Paris, Stefanos managed to qualify for the semi-finals. Medvedev also lost his opening match in Turin. In three sets, Daniil lost to Andrei Rublev. Now last year's finalist of the competition simply has no right to make a mistake. Medvedev won two trophies. He conquered the competition in Los Cabos, and on the eve of the ATP Final Tournament, he won the indoor tournament in Vienna, beating Denis Shapovalov in the final.
