4Gringos are approaching this match in a losing streak of two losses, but they lost to quite strong NoPing Esports and Infamous UESPORTS, and in the last 5 matches they have 3 draws with Flower Gaming, Black N Yellow and D2 Hustlers. The results are quite good.

Hokori outplayed Infinity yesterday, in fact, this allowed them to more confidently advance to the playoffs, in case of a draw there could be huge problems. There are concerns about the stability of this team, after they lost to Black N Yellow, we will simply miss the holes from NoPing.

The teams played each other only 1 time, this was in early September, in the group stage of BTS Pro Series Season 8 Americas, then the teams did not reveal the strongest and parted in a world 1: 1.

Bookmakers give odds 1.442 for Hokori and 2.715 for 4Gringos, I don't fully understand such belief in Hokori, there is no reason to give almost 3 for 4G, teams are about the same level and played a draw with each other. The group stage showed that it is impossible to single out a clear favorite and an outsider. Since the bookmakers give such a gift, it is worth using it. I lean towards 1 card from 4Gringos for 1.55; with a huge risk of 4Gringos' success at 2.715, it will be very important for 4G to win on the first map.

Prediction: 4Gringos will beat Hokori on 1 map in the playoffs of the lower bracket of BTS Pro Series Season 8 Americas - coefficient 1.55; with a huge risk, the victory of 4G for 2.715
