ForZe last met with HAVU last Tuesday, in the quarterfinals of CCT North Europe Series #2, and lost 1-2 despite taking the series lead. HAVU were stronger on the day and displayed much better individual performances, particularly evident on Nuke (16-12) and Inferno (16-11).
Considering HAVU won this match just one week ago, it makes sense that they’re priced as the favourites for the rematch. Still, we would argue that forZe played uncharacteristically poorly. That’s not to say that forZe are very strong, but four of five players had a negative performance rating last week – even though their averages are well above 1.00.
HAVU look stronger due to their past success against forZe, but it hardly warrants the odds on offer at most esports betting sites. This should be another close clash which should go the distance.

Astralis are not in the best form, and even that’s an understatement. But regardless of how poorly the Danes have been playing lately, they shouldn’t lose games like this.
ECSTATIC barely made it through the CCT Central Europe Series #4 group stage, and hadn’t they secured a forfeit win against AVANGAR, ECSTATIC likely wouldn’t reach this far this tournament.
ECATATIC are 4-6 across their last ten outings, which isn’t terrible, but their only wins came against Team Falcons, Prosapia, eSuba, and Endpoint. In contrast, Astralis are 5-5 over the same stretch, which includes defeats against 500, Fnatic, and HEET, but even with those losses, Astralis deserve to be massive favourites.
This should end in a clean 2-0 victory for Astralis, who shouldn’t lose more than ten rounds per map. We’re getting -125 with BetOnline on Astralis with a -4.5 round handicap, and that’s a solid offer.
