Heroic enter Flashpoint Season 3 priced as +175 favourites to win the title, which puts them well ahead of Astralis (+350), BIG (+600), and Complexity (+600) in the outright betting market. That isn’t entirely shocking, as they are the world no.3 team and likely won’t face any tough resistance given how shaky some of the Counter-Strike top dogs have been of late.
Sprout enter this match priced as big underdogs, with esports bookmakers giving them a mere 17.5% implied probability to win. Flashpoint Season 3 will mark Sprout’s fourth A-Tier tournament of 2021, as they have spent most of the year playing in second-tier competitions.
The lack of practice against top-tier opponents will put Sprout at a disadvantage since they are facing the reigning ESL Pro League Season 13 champions and DreamHack Masters Spring 2021 semi-finalists. This match is Heroic’s to lose, and with the form they’ve been showing, we have no reason to doubt their ability to claim a clean sweep on Wednesday.

Last week, we trusted G2 Esports to defeat Astralis and we weren’t disappointed. The French-Balkan squad put on a show and defeated the Danes 2-1 with 16-7 on Train, 14-16 on Nuke, and 16-8 on Vertigo. They were, however, unable to make it past the current world no.1 team, Gambit Esports, who swept them 2-0 in the DreamHack Masters Spring semi-finals.
FaZe Clan also attended the DreamHack Masters, where they did not make it past the first round of the group stage. This marks FaZe’s third consecutive tournament where they failed to finish better than ninth-12th.
G2 and FaZe last met at the end of April, when G2 won 2-1 having swept FaZe 2-0 just over a month prior. G2’s hot form and their 2-0 head-to-head record with the current iteration of FaZe are the only two things you need to consider when picking a winner here.
