The most popular user's bets

TU (4.5)

Forecast: In the match between Diesel and Crystal, the advantage is given to the home team. Diesel has the edge due to the home field and a more solid defense. At the same time, Crystal doesn't impress in defense, conceding an average of 3 goals per match. An intense game is expected, where both teams can score, but Diesel is expected to come out on top. Considering the low scoring history of their matchups, a bet on under 4.5 goals seems preferable.

TO (5.5)

My prediction for the match between Diesel and Crystal teams in the VHL is a total goals over bet. Both teams have weak defenses, while their attacks have been productive. Diesel is clearly the favorite, which indicates a high-scoring game. The open style of play and ambitious attacking actions of both teams suggest that spectators can expect a high-scoring match.

H1 (-1.5)

Considering a successful preseason and two wins against Crystal, Diesel has a good chance of winning. The home arena and fan support will also be on their side. Taking into account the team's good form and motivation, they are likely to secure a confident victory in this match.

ITO2 (1.5)

Analyzing previous matches and the form of the teams, it can be assumed that in the upcoming match Crystal will be able to score several goals. In the preseason, the team showed a good attacking game, indicating its ability to create chances and convert them. Taking this factor into account, it can be expected that Crystal will be able to execute successful attacks and score a few goals. Additionally, playing at home usually gives the team extra energy and support from the fans, which can also impact the result. Therefore, it is predicted that Crystal will be able to score a few goals in the upcoming match.
