In the opening match of Group A at the Elisa Masters Espoo 2022 LAN tournament, the German BIG team will play against HEET from France.
BIGThe German team has not played yet after the unsuccessful IEM Major tournament in Rio de Janeiro.
Recall that BIG were supposed to enter the playoffs of the tournament, but after two initial victories at the "legends" stage, the Germans lost heavily and lost three consecutive matches of the VO3 format with a score of 0:2 on the cards. In their last match at the tournament in Brazil, which was on the eighth of November, BIG lost to the Ukrainian team Natus Vincere on two maps with a fairly large difference – 12:16 Mirage (the opponent's peak) and 11:16 Dust2.
HEETThe French team, in turn, played on HLTV for the last time on the first of November.
In the first round of the upper bracket at the ESL Challenger League Season 43 Europe tournament in the HEET format in the HE3 format, the Russian K23 team was outplayed on two cards – 16:14 Nuke (its peak) and 16:7 Overpass.
ForecastIn this match, BIG is quite rightly considered by bookmakers to be a fairly clear favorite in the VO1 format game.
The German team must outplay the French team on almost any map, and therefore here we also suggest you to bet on BIG.
