Dominican Republic is a perfect 5-0 in this tournament so far, averaging a whopping 10.2 runs scored per game. On the other side, the USA is 4-1, having lost to Italy in the group phase, and they are averaging 8 runs scored per game. Both teams have a lot of talent that can produce runs. Dominican Republic also allowed 10 fewer runs in their 5 games than the USA, so got to feel like DR's pitching depth might come in handy and give them a slight edge to win this one.

Dominican Republic is a perfect 5-0 en route to this huge semifinal, while USA is 4-1 with one blemish coming in a loss to Italy. Dominican Republic scored 11 more runs and allowed 10 fewer runs through their 5 respective games. Dominican Republic has a lineup to match USA's power, so got to expect a tight game, and given how productive DR's bats have been, plus handy head start, makes them the side to be on.

Both of these teams have been on fire offensively as the USA averages 8 runs scored per game through their 5 games, while the Dominican Republic averages a whopping 10.2 runs scored per game. Both are stacked offensively with a lot of talent throughout the lineup, so both Skenes and Severino as starting pitchers will have their hands full. This should also lead to a lot of bullpen arms being deployed and eventually result in many runs, which should bring in the over.

Predators went over this total in 11 of their last 20 games, with all 20 of those games seeing at least 5 total goals. On the other side, Oilers went over this total in 14 of their last 16 games. They went over this total in both head-to-head meetings this season, so with the two starting goalies, Ingram and Annunen, both having save percentages below 90%, simply got to expect another higher-scoring contest, which should result in an over.

Knicks are 44-25, of which 24-9 at home, while Warriors are 32-34, of which 13-19 on the road. Knicks are 22-11 against the spread at home, while Warriors failed to cover the spread in 18 of their 32 road games. Knicks covered the spread in 6 of last 9 games while Warriors failed to cover the spread in 10 of their last 14 games, so with Warriors missing many starting players with injuries, got to expect the Knicks dominate this one and win with ease.
