Entropiq and Team Fiend last met in June, when the Russian squad won 2-0 and avenged their 2-1 loss to Fiend back in May. Entropiq have since risen to the no.12 spot in the CS:GO esports global rankings, while Fiend have settled at no.18.
Besides being relatively evenly rated, Entropiq and Team Fiend have been showing fairly similar results – at least on paper. Entropiq are 5-0 across their last five, while Fiend are 3-2 with two close 1-2 losses.
However, unlike Fiend, Entropiq attended PGL Major Stockholm 2021 earlier this month and reached the New Legends Stage with wins against Astralis, Movistar Riders, Heroic, Team Liquid and Gambit Esports. Therefore, if Entropiq can compete against some of the world’s best teams, they should defeat Fiend in straight maps.

Eternal Fire caused a huge upset on Thursday when they defeated Virtus.pro (2-1) in the first round of the REPUBLEAGUE Season 2 playoffs. Ismailcan “XANTARES” Dörtkardeş was leading the way for his squad, averaging 1.18 rating across the series, while Yasin “xfl0ud” Koç and Buğra “Calyx” Arkın were the only two players of the team to end the match with a sub-1.00 rating.
The Turkish squad played well, but it was also a case of Virtus.pro underperforming, so we have to take their success with a grain of salt. Eternal Fire have since played two more games at a charity event, losing to both Entropiq (3-10) and HONORIS (8-10).
Lyngby Vikings’ most recent match happened last Thursday, when they defeated 00Nation (2-1) in the previous round of the playoffs. It marked the Vikings’ eighth win across their last nine outings and their 13th across the last 15.
Lyngby Vikings are in a much better form, but they’re not worth a bet at -200, nor are we too excited about backing Eternal Fire to cause an upset. These two squads are evenly matched individually, and we expect that to show in the final score.
