Goonsquad Will win
Today's gaming day as part of the Dota Pro Circuit Season 2021/2022 Tour 3 Division 1 will be limited to just one match between Entity Gaming and Goonsquad. Teams will compete for extra points in the standings. Both participants of the meeting share the first place in the group table, and therefore a victory in the match will bring someone to the status of the Dota 2 league favorite.
First of all, it is worth noting that both teams are in good shape. If you look at the history of recent matches, then both participants in the meeting recently came out victorious in those confrontations in which they were considered an outsider.
entity
Entity Gaming in the current league managed to fight with Gaimin Gladiators, one of the strongest teams in the European division. Being there in the status of an obvious outsider, the Europeans still managed to win and did not even lose a single map in the battle with GG. Other matches were held in April as part of the second round of the Dota Pro Circuit, and therefore you should not pay attention to them. As for the last encounter, you can see that Entity has a fairly diverse pool of heroes that can definitely play into their hands and both maps were completed for 41 minutes, indicating the average pace of the game that the Europeans prefer. It would not be superfluous to say that the players have been playing together since November last year. Pure joined the team at the end of May and has been playing in the team for only 2 weeks, but the last meeting showed that he had already managed to more or less play with his teammates.
goonsquad
Goonsquad have been playing together since the end of February this year, and the roster includes well-known and even legendary Swedish players: s4 (TI3 winner), Limmp, Handsken, peksu and aQua. The first and last match in which the Swedes took part in the European Dota 2 league took place against Team Liquid. Goonsquad approached the confrontation as a clear outsider according to betting experts, but did not let their fans down and won there with a score of 2-1. The team has, albeit not the most extensive pool of heroes, but they know how to implement their ideas. Also, if you pay attention to the time that was spent to win, you can see that Goonsquad adapt to their opponent and can play both quick matches lasting 35 minutes, and long ones that exceed 70 minutes.
Experts from bookmakers designate Entity as a favorite, albeit the most obvious one. They offer odds of 1.65 on potential winners, which equates to approximately a 56% chance of winning. The overweight is not too big. I think that goonsquad cannot be written off and s4 with his teammates can still show an excellent game. Here I am more inclined to believe that it would be reasonable to bet on goonsquad to win at odds of 2.08. Players who do not like big risks can bet on Handicap +1.5 cards in favor of goonsquad or Total over 2.5 cards.
Final bet: Goonsquad win at odds 2.08
All bookmakers have agreed that Entity is the favorite. This can be noticed because odds on them are 1.744. This number in the favor of Goonsquad amounts 2.135. Respectively, the last ones are the underdogs of the upcoming match.
