EWC Semi-Finals
The semifinals are set to ignite on July 18, with Team Spirit facing PVISION at 1:00 PM CET, a clash of Group A and Group D titans. The second semifinal at 4:30 PM CET will feature the winners of today’s Tundra Esports vs. BB Team and Team Liquid vs. Team Falcons matchups. Predicting the Grand Final is tough, but Team Liquid (22.78% tournament win odds) and BB Team (21.71%) lead the pack, backed by their strong group stage performances (5-1 each). Team Spirit’s consistent 2025 form, including a FISSURE PLAYGROUND 1 win, makes them a favorite, while Team Falcons’ BLAST Slam III runner-up finish adds wildcard potential. A Liquid vs. Spirit final seems likely, but BB Team’s aggressive play could disrupt the script.
Tundra Esports vs. BB Team
Tundra Esports (2.06) face BB Team (1.71) at 11:00 AM CET in a quarterfinal showdown. Tundra’s 6-3 Group C run and BLAST Slam III victory highlight their resilience, but BB Team’s 5-1 Group B dominance and FISSURE Universe: Episode 4 win make them favorites. GG.BET’s map handicap odds show +1.5 for Tundra at 1.36 and under 2.5 total maps at 1.8, suggesting a tight series. Tundra’s withdrawal from DreamLeague Season 26 due to fatigue could impact their stamina, while BB Team’s aggressive meta gives them an edge. Prediction: BB Team 2:1.

Team Liquid vs. Team Falcons
At 2:30 PM CET, Team Liquid (1.41) take on Team Falcons (2.78), with Liquid favored after a 5-1 Group D performance and a FISSURE Universe: Episode 5 title. Falcons’ 2:0 sweep over NaVi shows their potential, but their inconsistent 2-4 Group B record raises questions. GG.BET’s map handicap odds are -1.5 for Liquid at 2.31 and +1.5 for Falcons at 1.57, with under 2.5 total maps at 1.72. Liquid’s head-to-head struggles against Falcons add intrigue, but their recent form suggests a 2:0 win.
Esports World Cup 2025 Phase 1 & Phase 2
Dota 2 EWC 2025 Group Stage (July 8-11) saw 16 teams in four groups play best-of-2 matches, with Team Spirit, BB Team, Aurora, and Team Liquid topping Groups A-D. PVISION, Gaimin Gladiators, Tundra Esports, and Team Falcons advanced through the Phase 2 Round of 16 (July 12) and quarterfinals (July 13), while NaVi, Xtreme Gaming, Talon, and HEROIC were eliminated. Aurora’s 7-2 Group C run surprised, while Virtus.pro’s 0-6 flop disappointed.
What to Expect from Team Liquid vs. Team Falcons Matchup?
Team Liquid vs. Team Falcons at 2:30 PM CET is a high-stakes quarterfinal. Liquid’s 5-1 Group D record and PGL Wallachia Season 4 win showcase their map control and draft consistency, but Falcons’ 2:0 upset over NaVi and hometown energy make them dangerous. GG.BET odds favor Liquid at 1.41, with a -1.5 map handicap at 2.31, but Falcons’ 2.78 odds and past head-to-head wins suggest a potential upset. Liquid’s recent FISSURE Universe: Episode 5 victory gives them momentum, predicting a 2:0 win if their cores, miCKe and Nisha, dominate early.
The Tundra Esports vs. BB Team matchup at 11:00 AM CET pits Tundra’s 6-3 Group C resilience against BB Team’s 5-1 Group B aggression. Tundra’s BLAST Slam III title is offset by their DreamLeague Season 26 withdrawal, while BB Team’s FISSURE Universe: Episode 4 win and 1.71 odds indicate strong form. The +1.5 map handicap for Tundra at 1.36 suggests a close series, but BB Team’s high-octane playstyle should secure a 2:1 victory if their cores maintain pressure.
