Forecast No Bounty Hunter - HF
The group stage of Dota 2 Champions League Season 15 is in full swing, which means that the overall picture of the teams has already formed. Today will be the last match of the fourth gaming day, in which No Bounty Hunter will face off against HF. Previously, the teams met each other twice, and according to the results, each participant had one victory. Today they will again have to determine the strongest in format 3.
No Bounty Hunter Form
As I wrote earlier, a bad name does not prevent the team from performing quite well on the tier-2 scene. The team has won victories in such tournaments as: ESFL, HomeGame #4 and Epulze Monthly September 2020. In addition, the roster successfully performed in two seasons of DreamLeague DPC S14 EU and DreamLeague DPC S15 EU where it took 4th and 6th places.
At the current tournament, the team played the first match against the Wayfarers, and despite all efforts, they could not snatch victory. The match was very interesting with an equal fight, the first map lasted 44 minutes, and NBH failed to win on it. On the second map, the team took into account all their mistakes and won in 39 minutes. The last map, unfortunately, ended in defeat for the players at the 38th minute. In the second match, X3 were waiting for them, and then things went much worse. An equal struggle on the first map ended in defeat in 43 minutes, and on the second map the team almost did not resist and lost in 30 minutes.

Form HF
The team, in turn, did not show itself very well over the past season, at two D2CL stages the players earned 5-6th place, and in the 14th season they won 7-8th place. The team played their first match in the current tournament against YNGBLD, and as a result of three tense maps of 61, 48 and 47 minutes, they could not choose a victory (1-2). In the second match, X3 were waiting for them, which, like for the opponents, became a stumbling block. As a result of two maps of 61 and 37 minutes each, the team lost and fell to the very bottom of the rating table.

Match prediction
We are in for a struggle of outsiders, both teams are almost equal, both have earned two losses and are now at the very bottom of the rating table, in addition, both teams now have a strong loss streak in 4 matches. It's hard to decide the winner, but I'm more impressed with No Bounty Hunter, some players have a lot more experience of playing on the professional scene, and in this match it can be decisive.
Outcome: No Bounty Hunter victory
