Both teams have been very efficient offensively. Hapoel Jerusalem is averaging 95.9 points scored per game over their last 13 games, while Hapoel Tel Aviv is averaging 92 points scored per game over their last 6 games. They went over this total in the last two head-to-head meetings, and their last 3 head-to-head meetings played in Jerusalem averaged 184.7 total points per game, so got to expect another higher-scoring game here, which should result in an over.

Both teams did great to upset higher seeds in the first round. Barcelona beat No. 4 seed Murcia in the deciding game 3 on the road, while Tenerife even more impressively beat No. 1 seed and overwhelming favorite Real Madrid in decisive game 3 on the road, so this should be a close series. They split two head-to-head meetings this season, with each side winning on the road. They are also tied 3-3 in the last 6 head-to-head matches, with Tenerife's three losses coming by 5, 4, and 5 points, so got to expect another tight game, in which the visitors plus a handy head start seem like the better side to be on.

Barcelona went over this total in 6 of their last 7 games, while Tenerife went over this total in 12 of their last 14 games. Both are very efficient offensively and score a lot. Their recent H2H matches reflect this, as they went over this total in 7 of their last 8 H2H meetings, with 6 of the last 7 of those matches seeing both sides score at least 86 points, so got to expect another higher-scoring contest here, which should result in an over.

Rams last won the Super Bowl in 2021 when they hosted at SoFi Stadium, and this year's Super Bowl is again being played at SoFi in LA. Rams have a superb team led by last year's MVP QB Stafford, who led them to the title in 2021. They have an amazing offense with a fantastic receiving core in the likes of excellent Nacua and Adams, alongside a whole stable of young and improving tight ends and a rock-solid run game with Williams. On the other side, their defense just got vastly improved by the addition of last season's Defensive Player of the Year, Garrett, who broke the NFL single-season sack record with 23 sacks. They also traded for two Chiefs cornerbacks, McDuffie and Watson, to fill the need in the secondary, while they also have one of the most brilliant coaching minds in McVay. After going close last year, where they lost a close one to the eventual winners in the NFC Championship game, simply got to like the Rams to go all the way this season and win another title at home in LA.
