Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction #1:
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction #2:
Evil Geniuses have celebrated success in the past two matches and they’re capable of giving FURIA a lot of trouble in their heat of war. The Brazilians have previously given up one card each to Liquid and Eternal Fire, so it won’t be surprising if the North Americans manage to deal with their opponent at their peak. We suggest betting on a plus card handicap for good odds.

Two of FURIA’s four matches were played on three cards.
Evil Geniuses hasn’t played their best game in a very long time. The team lost their first two matches in the ESL Pro League Season 16, which was not a big surprise. But the team’s further victories surprised everyone. First, the American squad beat Eternal Fire, and then Movistar Riders. Although it should be clear, that the Turks are one of the weakest teams in the tournament and victory over them could be. And Movistar Riders is in such terrible shape that they lose to everyone in a row, failing the most important qualifications for RMR. There is clearly something wrong with the team now, which EG took advantage of.
With the other teams it was a complete disaster. I don’t believe that Evil Geniuses is able to put up a fight against the Brazilians, who were prepared for the championship and now occupy second place in the group. Evil Geniuses believed in their Overpass and will kick it to the end, but the Brazilians will punish for it. In the match against Cloud9, FURIA showed that this card is at a high level, and it will obviously be able to match Evil Geniuses.
FURIA performed well in the group stage. The team won three matches out of four possible, losing only to Cloud9, which is now in terrific form. KSCERATO is still among the top three players in the tournament in terms of individual statistics. As for the final match of the group stage, the Brazilians will pick Inferno or Mirage.
On both maps, the squad feels confident and should win easily. On the first card, Evil Geniuses has already lost two matches at ESL Pro League Season 16 and has not shown any game. And on Mirage it played a very long time and has no practice in this lineup. The other options from the Brazilians are unbelievable. We don’t need them. Mirage or Inferno look like win-win options.
In our opinion, the teams will take to the field with the following line-ups:
Evil Geniuses: Brehze, CeRq, HexT, autimatic, neaLaN.
Furia: KSCERATO, arT, drop, saffee, yuurih.
Brehze from Evil Geniuses and yuurih from Furia is our highlighted players in the match.
