Aurora Gaming vs Gaimin Gladiators Prediction
Although Aurora seems to be in a good form right now, we think that the squad does not have enough firepower to bring down Gaimin Gladiators. One of the best teams in Western Europe is in a better position for this match. It has better results overall, more experience, and we believe it will also be more determined to secure the victory.
Having said that, this will definitely be one of those games where you can expect anything to happen. It won’t be easy for GG to win, so don’t be surprised if we see 3 full maps.
