Bookmakers Rating Bet:

Team Secret – Team Liquid

After yesterday’s “hot” games in the lower bracket of the tournament, I would like to expect the same from the matches of the upper bracket, but, to be honest, there is not much intrigue in the first match of the game day. Yes, Team Secret, according to its captain Clement Puppey Ivanov, is now not in good shape and a little tired of the variety of online tournaments, but Team Liquid is not in its best form, although it was able to break into the top bracket of the playoffs. Last time Liquid managed to beat Secret at WePlay! Pushka League Season 1 Division 1but it was, as they say, a long time ago and not true. The last nine cards between these teams ended with a total score of 9: 0, and it is unlikely that today anything will change in these statistics in favor of the “liquid” ones. So my bet on a sure victory is Team Secret.

Rate: ₽1,000 to win Team Secret with a score of 2: 0 with a coefficient of 1.54.

FlyToMoon – Nigma

In terms of intrigue, this match can definitely be called the main meeting of the gaming day. On the one hand, Nigma finally got in shape, and at the end of the group stage she defeated the invincible Team Secret, but we all know what Nigma can do: win unplayed and lose unplayed. About the same thing can be said about FlyToMoon. “Pilots” are now in great shape and should become the best team from the CIS at this tournament amid problems at Virtus.pro. They are able to give Nigma a fight and even win against her, but I don’t think that for both teams this meeting will be an easy walk. I expect a close confrontation, but still believe in the final success of the FTM. Nigma is able to “throw” matches in the upper bracket – as these guys did when they were still in Team Liquid, but there will almost certainly be three cards here.

Rate: ₽1,000 to win FlyToMoon with a score of 2: 1 with a coefficient of 4.80.

Team Secret – Team Liquid

After a not-so-expected defeat from Nigma, the Puppey team returned to their usual rhythm and left no chance. Og and B8 esportsspending a little over two hours on two best-of-3 episodes. Team Liquid, on the contrary, surprised many with a weak-willed defeat from Virtus.pro just released from vacation. The last four face-to-face meetings of these teams ended with a total score of 9: 0 on the cards, and only in one of them did the team Aiden iNSaNiA Sarkoi there were at least some chances of victory (then Secret won back the lag of 20 thousand gold). I do not think that Puppey will again give at least some hope to the rivals. Secret style is ideally suited for Team Liquid, so here without surprises – 2: 0 in favor of Team Secret.

Rate: ₽1,000 at -1.5 on Team Secret for 1.55 (Team Secret will win with a score of 2: 0).

FlyToMoon – Nigma

After defeating Secret, bookmakers see Nigma as a big favorite in the match against FlyToMoon. My opinion is that the chances of teams in this confrontation are 50 to 50. We will take into account that it is online and anything can happen here every day. The only thing that can prevent the ALOHADANCE team from competing with their opponents is merged drafts. Because of this, FTM “in salad” lost the second card in the match with Team Empire, but corrected in time for the third. FlyToMoon can and must win at least one card, and there on the courage it can capture the whole series.

Rate: ₽1,000 by +1.5 on FlyToMoon for 1.60 (FlyToMoon will win at least one card).

Preliminary Results:

Both participants believe in a Team Team dry victory and that FlyToMoon has every chance of defeating Nigma.
