3DMAX vs ROOSTER

Best Odds: 3DMAX -2500 at BetOnline | Rooster +800 at BetOnline
When: September 29, 2025 | 13:00 CEST
Watch Live: Twitch

3DMAX were stunned by Inner Circle in three maps; however, they still looked structurally sound in mid-rounds. Rooster were outclassed 0-2 by G2 Esports and lack the map-pool depth to punish 3DMAX’s faults.

B8 vs HOTU

Best Odds: B8 -227.27 at BetOnline | HOTU +162 at SportsBetting
When: September 29, 2025 | 10:30 CEST
Watch Live: Twitch

B8 edged Legacy 2-1 in their opening ESL Pro League clash, but HOTU arrive with confidence after a 2-0 win against FURIA Esports. The market leans to B8, yet recent form suggests a razor-thin gap. Expect momentum swings and clutch-heavy finishes as these teams trade counter-terrorist halves.

ASTRALIS vs ENCE

Best Odds: Astralis -250 at BetOnline | ENCE +175 at SportsBetting
When: September 29, 2025 | 13:00 CEST
Watch Live: Twitch

Astralis survived Fluxo 2-1, while ENCE upset M80 2-1, setting up a volatile clash. Astralis are favored with the best esports betting sites, but ENCE’s mid-round calling looked sharper and should land their map pick. With both sides streaky across halves, this series will feature three maps.

GAMERLEGION vs INNER CIRCLE ESPORTS

Best Odds: GL -250 at BetOnline | IC +175 at SportsBetting
When: September 29, 2025 | 13:00 CEST
Watch Live: Twitch

GamerLegion dismantled NRG 2-0 with clean trading and proactive utility. Inner Circle Esports edged out 3DMAX 2-1 but bled opening duels. GL’s structure plus firepower should tell over a series, though IC Esports have some upset potential on comfort picks.

LEGACY vs NRG

Best Odds: Legacy -227.27 at BetOnline | NRG +162 at BetOnline
When: September 29, 2025 | 15:30 CEST
Watch Live: Twitch

Legacy took B8 to three maps, while NRG were swept 0-2 by GamerLegion but flashed clutch resilience. The market favors Legacy, but NRG’s ceiling and experience will make this another tough series for the favorites.

M80 vs HEROIC

Best Odds: M80 -125 at BetOnline | HEROIC -111.11 at BetOnline
When: September 29, 2025 | 15:30 CEST
Watch Live: Twitch

This is expected to be the closest series of the day, with two teams trying to rebound from tough losses. M80’s loss to ENCE showed shaky mid-rounds, while Heroic fell 1-2 to Gentle Mates but created plenty of openings. Given both teams’ split tendencies, taking the over in maps is the sensible angle.

FURIA ESPORTS vs FLUXO

Best Odds: FURIA -1250 at BetOnline | Fluxo +600 at BetOnline
When: September 29, 2025 | 18:00 CEST
Watch Live: Twitch

FURIA Esports’ 0-2 loss to HOTU is a red flag, but talent and map-pool edges remain substantial in this one. Expect a businesslike reset with cleaner mid-rounds and early-round protocols tightened on counter-terrorist sides.

G2 ESPORTS vs GENTLE MATES

Best Odds: G2 -1000 at BetOnline | M8 +550 at SportsBetting
When: September 29, 2025 | 18:00 CEST
Watch Live: Twitch

G2 Esports demolished Rooster 2-0 and should control vetoes and pace again. Gentle Mates upset HEROIC, but G2’s fundamentals — utility layering, trading discipline, and star power — make them a different beast.
