Complexity vs. Vitality Betting Preview
Considering the recent form of these respective rivals and two of the last three H2H encounters that produced a maximum of three maps, I am going with Over 2.5 maps in this one. Betting on the winner is not something I’d advise in this game as it could go either way, so it seems that betting on the total is the best possible option.
