BOOM Esports and Galaxy Racer Esports will face each other in the Moon Studio Asian League. The Moon Studio Asian League is a twelve team Asian Dota 2 tournament featuring the best SEA and Chinese teams playing together. The league brings about innovate format merging two regions and putting forth unprecedented tier 2 matches. It has a $45,000 prize pool with $20,000 going to the first-placed team.

BOOM Esports received a direct invite to the tournament and has been in excellent form recently. The team came second in the BTS Pro Series Season 2: Southeast Asia and the ESL One Birmingham 2020 - Online SEA. So far in the Moon Studio Asian League, BOOM Esports is 1-1-1 and is near the bottom of the table. However, it has played against much stronger opponents and should have a relatively easier time in the rest of the tournament’s group stage.

Galaxy Racer Esports is a Malaysian team with little to no achievements to its name. The team does have an innovative gameplay that has set it apart from other teams in the tournament. However, it has been unable to win a single game so far in the tournament and has no chance of qualifying for the playoffs.

I am taking BOOM to easily win this series with a -0.5 handicap. Galaxy Racer Esports has no experience playing against top teams and has displayed little to no chances of success at this tournament. The team is 0-0-4 and does not stand a chance against the experienced lineup of BOOM.
