Match Prediction: LGD Gaming - Vici Gaming | Dota 2
As part of the Wild Card of the One Esports Singapore Major tournament, PSG.LGD and Vici Gaming will meet. We are looking at who has more chances to emerge victorious from a principled match.
PSG.LGD Form
The bookmaker sees the first as the favorite of the duel between PSG.LGD and Vici Gaming. I wish I could agree with that, but I won't.
When analyzing, we will start from the only true event, which at least somehow allows us to analyze the state and form of commands. This is the DPC Regular Season.
This is where my doubts come up about PSG.LGD's chances to dry out the match against Vici. And my doubts do not come out of nowhere.
Results of the last 5 matches PSG.LGD
- Defeat Elephant 2-0
- Lost to EHOME 0-2
- Victory over Team.Aster with a score of 2-1
- Defeat EHOME 2-1
- Lose at EHOME 1-3
Yes, you can say: “But the last PSG.LGD matches were played within the FMWH Dota2 Championship Season 3”. This will be partly true.
But to cancel the fact that PSG.LGD barely made it to the Major after going through replays is silly. In this regard, Vici is much more prosaic.
Vici Form
Although the "Tigers" also show not the most confident game, they are doing better than their counterpart. Again, the comparison is the same DPC regular season.
In the group stage of the top division of the Chinese league, Vici made mistakes, which naturally did not allow them to get directly into the group stage or playoffs. However, there were clearly fewer such mistakes than PSG.LGD, since Vici did not have to challenge their participation in the replay in the Major.
Results of the last 5 meetings Vici Gaming
- Defeat Elephant 2-0
- Vici 2-1 win
- Defeat from PSG.LGD with a score of 1-2
- Defeat from Team Aster with a score of 1-2
- Lost to Aster.Aries with a score of 0-2
We see a similar trend with PSG.LGD, where Vici plays down their sleeves in “out of the DPC season” tournaments. However, let's take a look at how Vici play face-to-face meetings with PSG.LGD.
Personal meeting history
The entire list of Vici and PSG.LGD matches will hardly fit on several pages, but we are only interested in the freshest fights of the Chinese giants.
In the last 5 matches, PSG.LGD has an advantage. They won 3 fights out of 5, including a face-to-face confrontation in the DPC 2021.
Match outcome
Having weighed all the pros and cons and looking at the latest statistics, we can come to the conclusion that the teams have equal chances of winning in the match between PSG.LGD and Vici Gaming. Fortunately, there may be a draw within Wild Card One Esports Singapore Major 2021.
Result: a draw.
Both teams got into the wild card from the Chinese region, where they met just a huge number of times, besides PSG.LGD are clear favorites of this wild card in principle.
PSG.LGD: There is not a single player left from the past stellar line-up that twice got into the top three at the previous internationals, and now the once cool line-up is floundering in the local region and barely gets into the very first stage of the Major. However, do not forget that the weak level of the Chinese Dota is equal to the average level of play in the European division. So I think they have every chance to get into the group stage.
Vici gaming: Disappeared from professional radars after an unsuccessful performance in 2019, after that they played only in their own region, floundering there in all sorts of golden paybacks and local leagues. Now we managed to get into the wild card only because there were four slots in total, and not three as in many regions. And they are clear outsiders, even among all teams, not just Chinese.
The outcome of the meeting.
In fact, this is a meeting between a favorite and an outsider. If we take into account the statistics of their personal meetings, then it is simply huge, because about 49 times the teams played against each other, 29 times defeated LGD, and 20 Vici. 60:40. This is the statistics for the whole time, if we take the DPC, then in the group stage Vici lost to PSG, thereby sending them to the WC, and not to the group stage. Now the majority of bookmakers believe in the victory of PSG.LGD. The coefficient in their favor is equal to 2.5. Vici Gaming acts as an outsider, according to the bookmakers, and the odds for their victory is 4.3. In my opinion, you can deliciously catch a complete victory for PSG.LGD.
PSG.LGD Victory
Forecast for a duel between PSG.LGD and Vici Gaming within the WildCard stage for ONE Esports Singapore Major 2021.
Vici Gaming - today they play an order of magnitude worse than yesterday, apparently they really underestimated their opponent, but the heroes from Nigma were chosen signature and meta, the problem is in execution. The strangest thing is that they gave Nigma their most important character, Phoenix, and in the end they could have lost on the second map. The main thing is that Vici are playing to the end and it is not a fact that they will reach the group stage yet.
