Bayern Women are currently unstoppable. They have won all of their last 10 matches and conceded only 2 goals in total. Moreover, they have scored 3 or more goals in every match. Manchester is also doing very well, with only Chelsea managing to stop them recently. Just like in the men’s competitions, Bayern is currently in a very similar position in the women’s game. The bookmakers have offered us an excellent line for Bayern to score over 2 goals, which should be a given for this team.

Today’s action starts early. At 20:10, we will watch a matchup between a strong favorite — Spurs — and the underdog Milwaukee. Spurs are currently 2nd in the Western Conference and have already secured a playoff spot. The Bucks sit 11th in the Eastern Conference and are realistically out of contention.

The home team has struggled mainly due to roster issues. Giannis Antetokounmpo has been missing for a long time (first absent, then briefly returned, and now out again), along with Kevin Porter. Additionally, Portis, Turner, and Kuzma are questionable, which is a major blow for Milwaukee. At the moment, the team is being carried by Rollins, who is doing a decent job. This significantly weakens their offense, but even more so their defense.

This is clearly visible in recent games, where they conceded 130 points to Portland, 129 to the Clippers, 128 to Utah (even without key scorers), and 123 to Cleveland. Only against Phoenix did they keep the score relatively low (losing 108:105).

Spurs, on the other hand, are expected to be at full strength and should comfortably win this matchup. They have won their last 7 games and are also strong offensively, averaging around 126 points over their last 10 matches. In their last five games, they scored 123, 136, 134, 101, and 132 points, showing consistent productivity.

Their most recent head-to-head ended 119:101 in favor of San Antonio. At that time, Spurs were slightly weakened without Vassell, while the Bucks still had defensive support from Antetokounmpo.

Both teams in this matchup have one thing in common: they are very strong, but their rosters are weakened. Detroit will play today without Cunningham, Harris, and most likely also Duren. That’s a major setback since these are the team’s top three players. As for Toronto, Quickley is out, while Ingram and Murray-Boyles are questionable. Toronto will therefore rely heavily on Barnes.

Toronto’s results, however, have not been bad. Their last win was truly incredible — they defeated Orlando 139–87. In their last five games, they also beat New Orleans and Utah, although those results are not nearly as impressive as the win against Orlando.

Detroit has also surprisingly posted decent results. They defeated New Orleans, beat Minnesota (who were also missing their best player), and narrowly defeated the Lakers. Overall, both teams appear to be in fairly similar form.

However, Toronto’s roster is less weakened. They also won the last head-to-head meeting, and that game was played on the court of Cunningham, Duren, and Harris. Today’s game will be quite different, but not in Detroit’s favor.

In this game, I’m not confident enough to bet on the match result. Golden State have recently been slipping down the standings due to injuries to Curry, Butler, and Moody. They are now in 10th place, which still secures a play-in spot. Cleveland, on the other hand, is 4th in the other conference and only a few games away from securing a direct playoff spot.

I don’t want to bet on the result mainly because Curry is still listed as questionable after a long absence. Even if he plays, his minutes will likely be limited, which makes the outcome difficult to predict. However, the Warriors’ results have not been that bad. They have won three of their last five games (even though some were against underdogs). Most recently, they scored 113 points against the Spurs, which also happens to be their average scoring output over the last ten games.

Cleveland is steadily moving toward a playoff spot, having won seven of their last ten games. In those games, the total points line of 228.5 was exceeded seven times. They have averaged 123 points scored per game, with their games averaging 242 total points.

The current trend in their games and overall offensive productivity clearly points toward the over.
