?Vikin.gg have yet to win a single match this tournament and have lost seven in their last 10 outings (3-7). What’s more, their only three wins in that stretch came against Spider Pigzs, Hippomaniacs and Chicken Fighters (now High Coast Esports) who are all weaker than Team Nigma.
Nigma enter this match off their first loss of the tournament against Team Secret (0-2), but have previously beaten Alliance (2-1) and Team Liquid (2-1). Despite their solid record, Nigma are still a very hit-or-miss team, which makes it extremely difficult to trust them with a map handicap.
Nigma have managed a clean sweep win only twice across the last 15 best-of-three (Bo3) series and had to settle for a 2-1 victory over Vikin.gg in all of their last four meetings. Melchior “Seleri” Hillenkamp might not be in good form, but stealing one map off Nigma shouldn’t be to hard.

Team Secret are slowly finding their early-mid 2020 form when they were nearly unstoppable, and while they’re looking fairly sharp, Secret are by no means untouchable. They are currently the only unbeaten team at the tournament, having already bested mudgolems (2-1), Vikin.gg (2-0) and Team Nigma (2-0) but even with those results, it’s hard to say Secret got properly tested.
Team Liquid have suffered an upset loss on Tuesday against Tundra Esports (0-2), but one loss alone is not enough for us to start doubting in them. Liquid have won only four series against Secret in 2020 (4-10), but managed to win twice in their last four meetings, including a 2-0 sweep in December.
Secret should win this match more times than not, but they’re a bit too pricey for us to side with them. Liquid are capable of causing some damage and at $1.67, they’re worth a bet with a map handicap.
