Two home sides facing opponents who struggle to create much, and both opponents are patched up at the back. Neither game looks like a shootout; both look like the home team slowly leaning on a weaker visitor.

Detroit gave the ball away more often than Miami and still won by 17. That's the box-score puzzle I want to hear people unpack: which Detroit possessions did the damage, and what could Miami actually take away? The result alone makes the game look cleaner for Detroit than it was.

Pohang kept Anyang out, but the clean sheet came while conceding 20 shots to eight. Ulsan's recent trip to Gwangju went the other way: three goals scored, four conceded, with both teams creating chances. That makes Ulsan–Pohang a test of what happens after the first attack, not a simple contrast between a clean sheet and a loss. Can Pohang stop repeat entries while finding a way to threaten a side that has also given up chances?

Three Turkish volleyball matches, three different shapes. Two are established top-flight hosts against sides still finding their level after promotion or a rebuild, and the third is a heavyweight visiting a home team playing its first league match of the season.

Ulsan have conceded 45 goals in 32 league games and Pohang have scored just 28, so this derby is a leaky defence meeting a thin attack. The detail I'd chew on is that Pohang have not scored in their last three matches, while Ulsan's last two results came in games where they were fully open. My question is whether Pohang can create enough against a back line that gives chances away, or whether their recent shot pattern says the problem is volume rather than finishing.
