Lilmix’s last match in the Elisa Invitational ended in a painful loss on May 10 to Natus Vincere Junior (0-2), who beat them with 14-16 on Overpass and 7-16 on Dust II. The Swedes have since played five fixtures in other tournaments and lost all but one – a 16-3 win against the semi-professional team Familia.
Given their lack of form, it’s hard to be too optimistic about Lilmix’s chances to make it far this tournament. However, it’s not like KOVA’s situation is that much different.
The Finns are 5-5 across their last 10 outings and 1-3 in their last four. That run includes losses to Double Poney (3-16), PACT (1-2), and Young Ninjas (1-2), as well as a narrow 16-13 victory against HREDS.
This match seems like it can easily go either way, so take the better odds and side with Lilmix.

Club Brugge eSports are the reigning ESL Benelux Championship: Summer 2021 champions, now looking to claim their first A-Tier tournament title. The Belgian squad enter this match priced as $1.70 favourites, which is about right in our books.
If we compared them to Case Esports, Richard “ritchiEE” Mestdagh and co. outclass the Brazilians in almost all aspects of the game. Brugge are higher rated, in better form, and field more experienced players.
What’s more, Club Brugge hold a better map-win rate on five out of seven maps, including Dust II (62%–59%), Mirage (50%–17%), Inferno (58%–37%), Train (38%–33%), and Vertigo (57%–0%).
This is a fixture Club Brugge shouldn’t lose, but since this is their first meeting with Case Esports, it’s hard to say how they will match up stylistically. Case might seem weaker on paper, but they played well enough against Sangal Esports on Saturday for us to believe that they can force a close match.
