[DOTA 2] ESL One Los Angeles 2020 - Online: Europe & CIS is entering day 10. We will watch the 5th round in the group B, as Team Secret is firmly holding their 1st place with 4 wins. Let’s analyse all upcoming Monday matches.

BetOnBitWhat’s going on with Team Liquid? They are firmly holding the last place in the group with 4 losses. They have lost vs Alliance, Unique, Spirit and Secret. In their last matches vs Unique and Spirit, Liquid was pretty favoured, as they managed to get 1-0 lead in both series, but they managed to drop the series in the end with 1-2 to CIS teams. On the other side Chicken Fighters are really impressing us all with their performance in this tournament. Their squad looks really promising, as they are sharing 3rd place in the group with Alliance, both having 2 wins and 2 losses. In each of 4 of their matches in this league they took at least 1 map from their opponents, Secret included. Team Liquid is in terrible form, and Chicken Fighters must use that in their favour. Pretty nice bet on CF, but with high risk.
Team Secret is just looking like a team from another dimension in this tournament. They took all their 4 matches seriously and won them all easily with losing only 1 on the way. However, they are facing Team Spirit now, most probably the real underdog of this group. Underdog team that is currently holding 2nd place with 3 wins and 1 loss. They have won vs Alliance, Unique and Liquid. Yes, all wins were close 2-1 results, but win is a win in the end. Those two teams didn’t face each other recently. Yes, Team Secret are big favourites to take this match and I doubt with Puppey on the helm Secret will do a bad draft. 2-0 for Team Secret here is the most realistic option. It might happen that Spirit would take a map, but I wouldn’t risk it.
This was the real el clasico in esports. Alliance vs NaVi, one of the most expected matches in esports history and Dota 2 of course. Or at least was. Not anymore, a lot of things have changed on the way. Both Alliance and NaVi have 2 wins and 2 losses in this group stage play, at least for now. However, Alliance is a little bit better in the map win-loss ratio, and are higher ranked because of that. Alliance dropped at least 1 map to all teams they faced. NaVi maybe had a harder schedule until now, as they needed to face Secret and Chicken Fighters. Of course they lost vs Team Secret, but they’ve managed to pull out a win vs solid Chicken Fighters. Can they do it vs Alliance? Let me remind you that Alliance is playing with standin on position 5, and new member s4. NaVi is really inconsistent with their plays and form, and I see Alliance are trying really hard and they had some really good matches that I’ve watched. I would give a slight edge here to Alliance, even though NaVi are sportsbooks favourites. Odds on Alliance win are amazing. Worth a try.
This match is really hard to predict to me. Unique really impressed me, they are trying so hard and VANSKOR is a good leader to his youngsters. Unique are CIS team with the potential. But inexperience brought them to 7th place in the group B. They have 1 win and 3 losses, but they have given a hard fight to all teams they’ve faced. They have beat Liquid, but lost with 1-2 results to Alliance, NaVi and Spirit. They had some of those matches, but they’ve managed to lose their lead in the last map, and eventually they’ve lost the match. If they managed to work on their late game and communication a little bit in the last few days, I would give them a chance here. NiP is unstable, they are playing with 2 standins, most probably Blizzy and Milan this time again. NiP have 2 wins and 2 loses, but again they didn’t show much. They are struggling a lot, especially in the communication I think. Unique has a chance here to take a map. Go Unique, amazing odds on handicap.
Bet safe, this is very risky league to bet on! GL! PM me for discord / google sheet!
