Match Prediction: Vici Gaming - EHOME | Dota 2

Total Over 2.5

Another game with the participation of a team from the "big" four awaits us in the upper division. The situation in the upper division is extremely tense.

6 teams at once claim the second place and, as a result, for the passage to the group stage of the next Major. Vici and EHOME are among the contenders.

Finding out who will win the DPC 2021 regular season match and get one step closer to the coveted TOP-2. I think the match will be hot.

Vici Form

As already established, we begin the review of the match with the nominal favorite of the meeting. This is how the bookmaker sees Vici Gaming in this confrontation.

In general, in the second season of China, it is extremely difficult to figure out who is the favorite and who is the outsider (unless, of course, there is no Aster or SAG in the match). Competition has skyrocketed in China now than ever before.

Perhaps this is due to a certain laxity of the very four that played in the last major, since it is they who often show not typical results. And that's in a good way, like Aster, and absolutely disappointing, like IG.

Now we don't have Aster or IG. Now we have - Vici

Aster Recent Results

Defeat from Aster with a score of 1-2
Lost to IG with a score of 1-2
Win over RNG with a score of 2-0
Defeat Elephant 2-0
Defeat MagMa 2-0

A small streak of victories prompts positive thoughts in the direction of the team's preparation and moral component. However, similar statements will fit the description of other teams in the upper division.

EHOME Form

In the new season, I was betting on two teams. The first was and remains RNG, and the second is EHOME.

Last season, EHOME did not go to put it mildly, and they almost miraculously remained outside the relegation zone from the title division. Such an outcome for a team with top-level players is a clear shame.

And you don't really boast of 6th place, and therefore you need to work hard in the second season. And the prerequisites for seeing the fruits of that very selfless work were: EHOME won the FMWH Dota 2 Championship Season 3, successfully started at i-League 2021 and won two debut matches within the second season of the DPC league.

Results of last 5 matches EHOME

Defeat Vici Gaming 2-1
Defeat to Elephant 0-2
Defeat from PSG.LGD with a score of 1-2
Defeat Invictus Gaming 2-1
Lost to PSG.LGD with a score of 0-2

In general, China's competitiveness is evident. Nothing new.

Personal meeting history

In face-to-face confrontations between the two giants, the situation is amusing. In the last 5 matches, EHOME has celebrated three victories.

Of the 5 matches, only one ended 2-0, with Vici celebrating the victory. Again - the teams look very equal in the second season.

Match outcome

Looking at the statistics and condition of the teams in the second season, the most likely outcome for me is total over 2.5. However, now in China you shouldn't write off the grand team, and therefore I wouldn't be surprised if someone closes the series 2-0, as, for example, Elephant did against IG.

Result: the total is over 2.5.

2:0 (Vici Gaming)

Match Prediction: Vici Gaming vs. EHOME in Perfect World DPC 2021

12 days ago, the teams played against each other at i-League 2021, then EHOME won with a score of 2: 1 on maps, but after that Vici gained a cool form and managed to beat Team Aster and twice Elephant.

Vici Gaming highly rates the top five Treant Protector, which EHOME should definitely pay attention to and try to either ban it or take it for itself.

I am almost sure that Vici Gaming will win, EHOME has not yet fully figured out the current meta and they have not found their heroes. This proves the appearance of Ember Spirit in the light from them. So far, we have outplayed only obvious outsiders and therefore there is no particular faith in them.

Bookmakers give odds of 1.605 on Vici Gaming, 2.278 on EHOME. Everything is clear and objective, Vici will definitely win, I am confident in the score 2: 0 - the odds are 2.728.

Prediction: Vici Gaming will easily beat EHOME with a score of 2: 0 on maps at Perfect World DPC Season 2 - 2.728 odds

Vici Gaming Will win

EHOME slowed down the pace in their last games and they are no longer as confident as they did before, while Vici Gaming, on the contrary, tested some heroes and are ready to rush into battle within the DPC season. The pool of EHOME heroes has now become narrow, the guys cannot jump over their heads with the heroes that many teams are used to, I believe that you should always try something new in order to be successful in such matches, if you train a little and don't change your approach, then you will be easily read and I can see it perfectly in the last games of this team.

Vici Gaming well done, they began to take heroes outside the DPC season on which they played little and understood how to interact with them, the most interesting thing is that the rivals in the I-League tournament are the same as in the DPC, so this team is better adapted to play at the moment for the account of successful games and I am sure that we can bet on them in today's match. I also recommend paying attention to live bets, due to them you can go up quite well and this is a fact.

Vici Gaming will win this match.
