In the quarterfinals of the top bracket of Group D at the ESL Pro League Season 20 LAN tournament, which takes place in Malta, Liquid from North America will play against the European team ENCE.
Liquid
The team from North America last played online in a closed qualification in North America at IEM Rio 2024. Liquid confidently coped with the minimum task and got a ticket to the tournament in Brazil. In the qualifying final, which took place on the night of September 2, Liquid confidently beat the Brazilian ODDIK team on two maps – 13:4 Inferno (the opponent's peak) and 13:10 Anubis.
ENCE
The European team also played online for the last time, but on August 30th. ENCE played unsuccessfully in the closed second European qualification for the Thunderpick World Championship 2024. Already in the 1/16 finals, ENCE was defeated on three maps on three maps by the modest European team Young Ninjas – 13:8 Ancient (opponent's peak); 10:13 Anubis and 14:16 Dust2.
Forecast
In this match, Liquid is considered by bookmakers to be an extremely clear favorite, which is quite fair. Liquid is currently playing much more stable and is quite capable of competing for victory on two maps.
