In the semi-finals of the top bracket of Group D at the ESL Pro League Season 20 LAN tournament, which takes place in Malta, the European Vitality team will play against FURIA from Brazil.
Vitality
The European team played for fun yesterday and won the class over a much less serious opponent. In the quarterfinals of the top bracket of group D, Vitality managed to beat the modest ATOX team from Mongolia on two maps, but without a particularly large difference – 13:11 Inferno (its peak) and 13:7 Nuke. In this meeting, Frenchman ZywOo performed well as part of Vitality, the main leader of the team finished the match with a score of +16 in frags.
FURIA
The Brazilian team, in turn, started yesterday in Malta with a much more stubborn match. FURIA needed to play all three cards, but still the Brazilian team won a difficult victory over the Danish Falcons team in the quarterfinals of the upper grid – 13:10 Nuke (its peak); 10:13 Anubis and 13:9 Dust2.
FURIA and Vitality last played each other on August 11 at IEM Cologne 2024. Then, in the quarterfinals of the upper bracket of the group In Vitality, they won a crushing victory – 13:3 Inferno (the opponent's peak) and 13:2 Mirage.
Forecast
In this match, Vitality is once again considered by the bookmakers to be the undisputed favorite. However, given that many teams do not play very stable in the group stage, FURIA may well try to avoid defeat in this confrontation.
