Latvian Virsliiga!
Here I see clear AW, because Ventspils need to grab points wich they've lost in first games! Watched Jurmala last game in Daugavpils, want to say, that they've disappointed me a lot, actually nothing special, best scorer of Virsliiga Katasonovs plays realy weak and I can't understand how he managed to score six goals till now! Defence line is strongest in Jurmala, and Ventspils this season is playing defencive style footy too, so Under is expekted too. Ventspils is showing good game recently and fact, that they won Riga at home only 1-0 says nothink, they was twice better and could score 3/4 goals in that game!
GL!

Russian Premier league!
In fifth tour of Premier Zenit (biggest disapointing in start of champ) is hostig Dinamo, IMO one of the surprises of Premier and IMO Moscw team can catch a draw here!!! First of all, Dinamo is one of my favourite teams, because Kobelev maded very interesting and young team, wich can fight for Eurocups this season, while Zenit is in deep crisis now! As for Zentit's problems, first think we need to mention is, that Advokate doesn't hold situation under control IMO, morale of the team is very low, as we can see after reading bigest russian sports newspaper Sport-express, and in opposite Dinamo, who won Lokomotiv, and played draw with CSKA is in great shape recently, so can't see them loosing in Piter!

Virsliiga 2nd round!
Jurmala, very good team and we have very good odd, because Olimps is team of youngsters and will be outsiders this season.... IMO odds on Jurmala will drop and that's why I think it's worth to take it now, if you worie about that this is away game- Jurmalas home is 40 km from Riga so actually this will be like home game and great support is expekted. Also Jurmala was absolutely better than Dinaburg and if they want to be in 4th place this season they must take all possible points from team like Olimps! If you worie about Skonto-Olimps only 1-0, don't be so, Skonto is really weak this season and in first game they were bad, not Olimps good!
GL!

Virsliiga 2nd round!
As I mentioned before, Daugava has very interesting and IMO strong team and main target is 4th place for them, so in this game I very hardly believe in HW and Triobet offered 2.2 for them has value for me, so my advice take it!!! (For example in local bookie odd is 1,8 ) In first game when Riga won Ventspils they were very lucky, scored from penalty, and all in all Ventspils is better. One more reson, Daugava is playing first home game, all owners of the club will be there and also full stadion is expekted (of course, depends much on wether, snow in Latvia at the moment ). As for Riga, they'll go 4 hours by bus, from Riga to Daugavpils and it's definetly factor wich is not good for Riga... So, all in all for me HW with high stakes!!!! GL!

Russian Reserve league!
Yes, quite exotic league and I'll stake on it first time, but IMO this pik has value!!! First of all, when we talk about Russia I always look odds @ marathon and here for Kuban odd is much smaller! Also if we look at table Saturn is last placed team, while Kuban is in 3rd place after 4 tours! I know, that Kuban reserve squad is quite strong, for example best Latvian NT player Laizans (attacking mid) is regulary playing there, and explanation of it, is limit of legionares in first squad of Kuban, also few good foreign players is playing for Kuban reserves!! As for Saturn, they're playing almost only by youngsters, so IMO HW here is quite sure!
GL!

SEB BBL!
Second leg game between those two teams, in Riga won ASK by 3 points and Siauliai to qualify must win 3+ points! Actually have very big feeling that Siauliai won't win this, because can't imagine Final4 without ASK, and Barons is out too, so ASK is only Rigas team wich can be there!!! (maybe refs will help ;) ) So H2H stats is 2-1 this season, Riga won both home games and lost by 8 points in Lithuania! Siauliai is good home team, but not unbeatable, big advantage for them is small hall where they used to play despite of other teams!!! Anyway, I believe that Butautas is really great coach (head coach of Lithuanian NT) and he know's how to do it, so big value lies on ASK victorie, OK, maybe +3 HC will be safer, but odds on ASK is really great and I'm going to take it by high stakes!!!
GL!

IMO worth to take AW HC!!! First of all, Daugava is very big p[roject with target Eurocups this season, Russian money is invested in this team and I really believe them give a fifgt to TOP 3 teams every game! So I really don't want to start writing about squads and so on, only think that is worth to mention, is Petrenko, head coach of Daugavpils team, IMO best coach in Latvian clubs ever, very clever Russian specialist, who was coach of Moscow Torpedo few years also in year when they become 4th in Russian Premierleague... He knows how to defend (in Liepaja almost all teams must defending :)) and draw is quite possible in this game!!
GL!

SEB BBL 1/4 final!
I'm going to take this one with full stakes, despite of fact, that this is not best month for me!!! Last game before Final4 and IMO Kalev has chancees to qualify there!!! First game in Tallin Kalev won by 1 point and it mean today they can't lose if they want to qualify!!! Ventspils in Tallin was loosing by 10+ points in the game and those teams are equal at the moment, but HC is set too high!!! In first game Reed was great and I can't see who can stop him now, also Jelic (Center of Latvian team) was cought his star :), IMO he won't be so good today!!! So main reason is, two equal teams facing each other and difference in odds such huge, IMO Kalev ML is worth to try too!!

Latvian Virsliiga is started and this is central game of the tour!!! Actually Dinaburg, is one of the most stable team in Virsliiga, they've been 4th team for last 9 seasons, but I can't see them in this place this season too! If we talk about squads, Dinaburg, as ususally haven't bought any good players, but lost Kozlov (best striker of team), in while Jurmala become stronger IMO, have bought Kasatonov (best forward in Latvia, came from Metalurgs Liepaja) and few good defenders!!! So, actually the odds is set quite fair, Jurmala is favourite here and they'll win!!! Morale of Dina is very low, because of disqualifieing from Baltic League (for game fixing) and maybe Intertoto cup, wich gives almost all financation to team.
GL!!!

So second game in play-off series!! Two days ago In Moscow Maccabi was trushed by more than 20 points and I can't see many arguments why not this time again... Ok, maybe refs will help Israel team, maybe support of fans will help them, but that's all only maybe... Maccabi isn't that Maccabi when Saras and Parker played, now they are much worse... Few weeks ago they lost at home to TAU by 11 points and level of TAU is somethink about CSKA!!! OK, in Euroleague Maccabi have won 9 of 10 home games and that's is OK, but CSKA have lost only one single game in this league!!! If we look at squads, CSKA has two equal starting fives, while Maccabi reserves is quite week, for example I can't see who can replace Vujcic when it's needed, while CSKA have 4 Centers in level of him... I'm full of confidence of CSKA win this, but not so sure about cover the spred, that's why low stakes on this game!!!
GL!

Euroleague 1/4 finals!!!
So wat we have there??? Unicaja is going to Barcelona after trushing this team two days ago and I really can't understand why Barca is such big favourite tonight!!! OK, they're quite good at home, won Real few weeks ago, but Unicaja is not bad tem at all and I'm going to take this offer with medium stakes!!! OK, Unicaja away is awful recently, lost last 3 away games, but opponents was serious-Juventud, Pamesa!!! Maybe Unicaja will feel more comfortable, because they know, that they've right to mistake!!!! ;)
