The International 10: China Qualifier

We continue to get acquainted with the teams that will play in the closed qualifiers from the Chinese region. Next in line are Sparking Arrow Gaming and Phoenix Gaming.
In fact, we have two nominally equal teams in front of us. And this is noticeable in the effectiveness of the teams.
Sparking Arrow Gaming had a very confident first DPC season, finishing 1st in the second league and earning the opportunity to gain invaluable experience in the top division. Phoenix repeated a similar path in the second season, also winning the lower division, in which it was true they were all year.
Now both clubs have a chance to prove themselves to the maximum, because in closed qualifiers, without 4 giants of China, the competition will be a little more gentle. But is it enough.
We are trying to figure out what to expect from the fight, and which of the two "middle peasants" will move one step closer to the coveted ticket to The International.
Sparking Arrow Gaming Form
Let's start, perhaps, with the team acting in the status of a nominal outsider of the fight. This is Sparking Arrow Gaming.
In principle, one can either agree with this or not. After all, Phoenix Gaming hasn't gone far, as for me.
Yes, SAG's performance in the top division of China showed that the team is not yet ready to compete with the elite. But we didn't see Phoenix there either.
Sparking Arrow Gaming Latest Results
- Lost to EHOME 0-2
- Lost to Team Aster with a score of 0-2
- Lost to PSG.LGD with a score of 0-2
- Lost to Invictus Gaming with a score of 0-2
- Lose at Vici Gaming 0-2
Again, going back to the words above. SAG has experience of playing against TOPs, which may not help them badly at qualifiers.
Phoenix shape
Now let's get to Phoenix, which are put in the status of favorites. The situation is similar to the SAG.
One can agree or argue with this. For some reason, there is a feeling that it is necessary to argue.
They are listed as favorites due to the fact that they managed to have a great second season in the lower division and win it. I see no other reason.
Local Phoenix tournaments did not show anything supernatural, I would say the opposite. For example, the last Moon Studio Asian Showdown, where Phoenix took 6th place, put everything in its place.
Phoenix Recent Results
- Demon Slayer 2-1 victory
- Defeat Team MagMa 2-0
- Lost to LBZS with a score of 1-2
- Defeat CDEC 2-1
- Defeat Dragon 0-2
It seems that the teams of TIR-2/3 level win, but it is impossible to say that they do it confidently. Contradictory Phoenix
Personal meeting history
Previously, the teams managed to play several official matches. One ended in a draw, and the second was won by Phoenix.
Match outcome
The whole forecast I was crucified that Phoenix did not look like the favorite of the match for me. I'd rather believe in SAGs, who have already gained experience in battles against the giants of China.
Outcome: SAG victory.
Phoenix Gaming will face off against Sparking Arrow Gaming in China's qualifiers for The International 10.
Phoenix Gaming finished first in the second division of the regular season, while Sparking Arrow Gaming finished in last place in the first division of last season.

Match Prediction: Phoenix Gaming vs. Sparking Arrow Gaming at The International 10 Qualifiers
Phoenix Gaming played at the Moon Studio Asian Showdown in June, when they received an invitation to that tournament. We took 6th place and received nothing for participating in the championship.
For some reason, many people presume Phoenix Gaming, but we have not yet seen Sparking Arrow Gaming games and making them an outsider against Phoenix is a kind of gift.
Bookmakers give odds of 1.57 for Phoenix Gaming and 2.355 for Sparking Arrow Gaming. It seems to me that the quotes are not justified on Sparking Arrow Gaming and therefore you need to take advantage of such moments and believe in the SAG.
Most likely, SAG will win, steep odds of 2: 0 - 4.48 and 2: 1 - 4.2. I advise you to bet in LIVE mode, watch drafts.
Prediction: Sparking Arrow Gaming will beat Phoenix Gaming - 2.355 odds
The match is 50-50, but Phoenix Gaming will be stronger due to team play. Of course, Sparking Arrow Gaming is played by guys who are slightly better in skill than their opponent, but this will not be enough for them in this match. Phoenix Gaming's task is to take your signature characters and win the game without critical errors, you don't need to run after the enemy under the towers and die in Roshan. You need to calmly start, transfer the game to the middle stage and just finish, I think they can handle it and do it tastefully.
I recommend betting on Phoenix Gaming in this match.
