Lyngby Vikings had a bit of trouble in the opening game of stage 1 as they were forced to come from behind and beat 777. They had a much easier job in the next game against 100PG, though. That win against 777 actually snapped their three-game losing skid, but Lyngby Vikings returned to losing ways against GORILLAZ. This time around, they had a 1-0 lead but lost in the end. Lyngby Vikings won eight of the previous 15 matches.

Lyngby Vikings vs. OFFSET Betting Preview

Lyngby Vikings have been in better form lately, but that is not enough for me to back them to win this game. OFFSET displayed strong performances so far at this tournament, which must be encouraging for them following a bad spell of results. It’s going to be a tight match and the winner will be hard to predict, so I am going with a popular option – Over 2.5 maps.

The Pick: Over 2.5 Maps (+106 @GGBET)
