Let's open the analysis of BLG vs AL match with the analysis of BLG's game form. In this match they will play as favourites with odds to win around 1.3.
Last season, BLG's main squad broke into the top 2 of the Chinese region with lightning speed, thereby clawing their way to the Mid-Season Invitational 2023. Another sensation happened at the international event: BLG made it to the grand finals, only to lose to JD Gaming.
Another plus for BLG is the roster renewed at Long Conference 2023. The club managed to assemble a top company.

One of the brightest teams of the group stage failed to do anything against a stronger opponent and eventually left the championship, while BLG celebrated a 3-1 victory.
