Six matches will be played on Friday, two of them elimination matches. Thursday brought us some underdog wins and surprises, so some top teams must be more careful with their play to keep themselves in ESL Pro League 19. We will see if Friday brings us even more surprises. Here, you will find an overview of the Friday match and schedule.

- Group D Lower Bracket Final, BOSS vs. Ninjas in Pyjamas at 18:30 CET
Matches Overview
BIG vs. PERA
BIG vs. PERA - ESL Pro League 19
Unfortunately for BIG, in their match for the playoff spot, they had to play against the best team in the world, Natus Vincere. Now they're here in a game against one of the underdog teams, and with BIG's current team form, they're expected to take this win and keep their way in ESL Pro League 19.
FlyQuest vs. HEROIC
FlyQuest vs. HEROIC - ESL Pro League 19
HEROIC couldn't close Complexity, so now they have to play more games and win all of them to get their playoff spot. FlyQuest is an underdog team, and it will be hard to beat such a team as HEROIC in a best-of-three series. HEROIC is a much more experienced team here, and they're in pretty good form.
ENCE vs. GamerLegion
ENCE vs. GamerLegion - ESL Pro League 19
These two teams already met a few days ago at the ESL Pro League 19 opening match. ENCE lost that match with a 0-2 score, and they only won 12 rounds in total for both maps. Now, it's ENCE's chance to take revenge. GamerLegion seems in good shape, and it might be hard for ENCE to get their payback.
Bad News Kangaroos vs. FURIA
Bad News Kangaroos vs. FURIA - ESL Pro League 19
Both these teams are in bad shape, and it is hard to expect who will win here. Experience is on the FURIA side, but it doesn't seem to help them against less experienced teams. The match might be interesting to watch because both teams will fight for their lives at ESL Pro League 19 since it's an elimination match, and the losing team must go home.
Group D Lower Bracket Final
It will be the winner of BIG vs. PERA against FlyQuest vs. HEROIC.
BOSS vs. Ninjas in Pyjamas
BOSS vs. Ninjas in Pyjamas - ESL Pro League 19
The second elimination match is this Friday. BOSS is an underdog team representing NA at this tournament, and NiP is a European mix that has yet to show what it's capable of after all the roster changes it made. We must see if NiP can start their winning way here and keep themselves in ESL Pro League 19.
We will return tomorrow with the overview of the other day's matches, so stay tuned, and don't miss the Friday matches—they will be fire!
