Spacestation Gaming picked up two wins in the first week, against XSET (7-3) and Mirage (7-2), proving that they’re one of the top teams in the region. But the question is: are Spacestation Gaming really good enough to deserve the tag of a -333.33 favourite for this bout?
Astralis stomped Soniqs on the first day of NAL Stage 1 with 7-1, but they couldn’t deliver against Oxygen Esports (3-7) on Wednesday. That’s a weird set of results, and if Astralis want to win the Major, we need to see more of Day 1 Astralis rather than the Astralis that was playing against Oxygen.
David “Iconic” Ifidon and co. are +240 underdogs for this bout, which makes sense since they’re a team that might do well, playing against one of the most consistent R6S esports squads in the region. We wouldn’t be surprised to see Astralis show some resistance, but we need to see a bit more from them before we can trust Iconic and his crew with our money.
Spacestation Gaming -2.5 rounds

New-look Oxygen Esports looked extremely good during the first week of NAL Stage 1 and left quite a statement ahead of their clash with Spacestation Gaming. Most notably, Oxygen crushed TSM (7-4), largely thanks to their new member, Ethan “Nuers” James.
Oxygen looked just as good on the second day when they took out Astralis (7-3) in one of the most one-sided games of the first week. Admittedly, Oxygen did slow down after taking a 5-0 lead, but dropping three of their next five rounds was more Astralis playing well rather than Oxygen underdelivering.
Beastcoast won their opening series against Parabellum Esports (7-5) and narrowly lost against DarkZero Esports (7-8) on Wednesday to end the first week of action at 1-1. Even though forcing DarkZero to 15 rounds is impressive, they also lost against Parabellum, who were in Challenger League and recently lost two key members.
Beastcoast look like the second-best team here and by quite a significant margin. Take Oxygen Esports to cover the 2.5-round line.
