    Matches Overview<\/h2>\n

    Monte vs. FORZE<\/h3>\n
    \"\" <\/span><\/div>\n

    Monte vs. FORZE – ESL Pro League 19<\/em><\/p>\n

    These two already met at this tournament just a few days ago, and back then,\u00a0Monte\u00a0<\/strong>came up on top with a\u00a02-0\u00a0<\/strong>win over\u00a0FORZE<\/strong>. They’re in an elimination match, and\u00a0FORZE\u00a0<\/strong>showed themselves\u00a0nicely in the last few days than they were against\u00a0Monte\u00a0<\/strong>in their first game. Plus, the first game ended up with\u00a013-11<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a019-17,\u00a0<\/strong>both being close scores, which tells us that\u00a0FORZE\u00a0<\/strong>had all the chances to turn it around. This time,\u00a0FORZE\u00a0<\/strong>might take their revenge and surprise\u00a0Monte,\u00a0<\/strong>but we will see if they have what it takes.<\/p>\n

    FlyQuest vs. PERA<\/h3>\n
    \"\" <\/span><\/div>\n

    FlyQuest vs. PERA – ESL Pro League 19<\/em><\/p>\n

    Two underdog teams in this tournament here at the elimination match, and so far, they only won games against teams who are also underdogs or in bad shape, so it’s hard to give them some credit, and they’re yet to show if they’re capable of doing it at this level.<\/p>\n

    FURIA vs. ENCE<\/h3>\n
    \"\" <\/span><\/div>\n

    FURIA vs. ENCE – ESL Pro League 19<\/em><\/p>\n

    These two met a little bit more than a month ago\u00a0at the PGL Major Copenhagen 2024<\/strong>, and last time, FURIA<\/strong> won with a 2-0<\/strong> score. Now, both teams have only won one game in ESL Pro League 19<\/strong> so far. But ENCE’s<\/strong> results were a little bit better, and they won against stronger teams than FURIA. We will see if ENCE <\/strong>can take their revenge for the PGL Major here<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    Ninjas in Pyjamas vs. HEROIC<\/h3>\n
    \"\" <\/span><\/div>\n

    Ninjas in Pyjamas vs. HEROIC – ESL Pro League 19<\/em><\/p>\n

    These two will have to play a rematch since they already met at the opening match of\u00a0ESL Pro League 19 Group D<\/strong>.\u00a0HEROIC\u00a0<\/strong>won that series with\u00a0a 2-0 score,\u00a0<\/strong>and one of the two maps ended up in overtime.\u00a0HEROIC\u00a0<\/strong>is a more experienced team\u00a0with better players, and\u00a0NiP\u00a0<\/strong>is still just a mix of European players who have yet to show what they’re capable of.\u00a0HEROIC\u00a0<\/strong>expected to win this match because it’s time to do even better than their previous match since it’s an elimination match and both teams’ last chance to keep themselves in ESL Pro League 19<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    MOUZ vs. Liquid<\/h3>\n
    \"\" <\/span><\/div>\n

    MOUZ vs. Liquid – ESL Pro League 19<\/em><\/p>\n

    Both teams\u00a0haven’t lost\u00a0a single match\u00a0yet\u00a0at\u00a0ESL Pro League 19,\u00a0<\/strong>and now they’re here playing for a better playoff spot.\u00a0They met in a heads-up match at\u00a0IEM Chengdu 2024\u00a0<\/strong>just a month ago, and\u00a0MOUZ\u00a0<\/strong>won that match with a\u00a02-0 score\u00a0<\/strong>in a confident way. Now,\u00a0MOUZ\u00a0<\/strong>seems like a better team and more consistent than\u00a0Liquid,\u00a0<\/strong>and it looks like\u00a0Liquid\u00a0<\/strong>will have to be on their good day to have a chance in a best-of-three against a team like\u00a0MOUZ<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
