=> Total over 2.5 goals 1.775 odds.

In seven matches out of ten between Feyenoord and PSV EINDHOVEN  , the stake on TOTAL OVER can be took place. The match will be held in Rotterdam, and at this stadium Feyenoord played the last 6 matches with PSV exclusively for a total of more goals scored. Matches for the Super Cup in the Netherlands are also distinguished by an abundance of goals. That was the case in the season when PSV EINDHOVEN defeated Ajax 5-3. A year earlier, PSV was again stronger than Ajax 4-0.

Maria Sakkari is currently the ninth rank in the world. She played 22 matches this year on hard, 7 of which she lost. After a weak performance at Wimbledon, where Maria immediately lost to Martha Kostyuk, she did not play for almost a month this can be a big problem for Sakkari. In the second round of Washington, she will face Leila Fernardes, who is now the 88th rank in the world. She is listed as an obvious favorite of this meeting, but it is unlikely that Sakkari, who has not played for almost a month, has a real chance of defeating a strong rival from North America. Leila Fernandez in Washington started with a qualification, where Grachev and Bulter were beaten. In the first round of the main grid, she played with Bernarda Pera  defeated her in two sets. The victory over Pera is an indicator that Fernandez is feeling very well now. In the second round, Leila will confront Sakkari, who represents the top ten of the world ranking. The match with the ninth racket of the world is a great test for any tennis player, so Fernandez definitely does not lack motivation.

My betting pick will be Over 21 games in the match with 1.775 odds.

1. Feyenoord smoothly and steadily held the past national championship and deservedly became the winner, ahead of the nearest PSV pursuer by seven points. In 34 matches, they scored 82 points.
In the national cup, Feyenoord advanced to the semifinals, where they lost to Ajax. In the Europa League, they managed to make it to the quarterfinals, but Roma got in its way.

2. During the summer break, midfielder Orkun Kekcu left the club's camp, who moved to Benfica for 25 million euros. In addition, striker Danilo left for Rangers. Team members of defensive midfielder Ramiz Zerruka of Twente and Calvin Stengs from Nice joined the team.

3. In preparation for the new season, Feyenoord played six  matches, won three victories with two draws and one defeat. In the last game, beat Benfica (2:1).

4. PSV could not smoothly and steadily pass the entire tournament distance in the national championship last season and finished second with a seven-point lag behind Feyenoord. At the same time, in the Dutch Cup, they had no equal, in the final they managed to beat Ajax in a penalty shootout. In the international arena, PSV didn't shine last season. 

5. The main news of the off-season was the change of coach. Instead of Rud van Nistelroy, the team is now run by Peter Bosch. 

6. In the summer, PSV held five control matches: four victories, one defeat. In the last game, they managed to beat Nottingham Forest (1:0).

Bet: total over 2.5 goal

Odd: 1.75
