After two rounds played, 100 Thieves has zero points and a round difference of -15; Chaos has three points and a round difference of +10. The best four teams in the group will advance to the playoff. This will be their third encounter; so far both teams have one win each.

100 Thieves won only two duels of their last eight matches and have a win rate of 27.3% in the past three months. During that period, the core of the roster played on 28 maps together. In the opening round at the ESL Pro League Season 12 NA, they lost to Evil Geniuses 2-0, and in the second round to Liquid 2-1. All guys in the lineup have a rating of over 1.09. On Overpass, they played only once and lost, and that map is their first ban. On Nuke, they record six defeats in a row, and Vertigo is their first pick.

Chaos won five of their last eight matches and has a win rate of 76.9% in the past three months. At the opening of the tournament, they lost to Liquid 2-1 and then won against GenG 2-0. The 22-year-old Mexican, Edgar “MarKE” Maldonado, signed a permanent contract with Chaos a couple of days ago. When it comes to the maps, Train is their favorite. On Train (91.7%), they have ten victories in a row. Nuke (78.9%) is their first pick, where they have four wins in a row.

Pick: Total maps over 2.5 (100 @PINNACLE)

100 Thieves is the bookmaker's favorite and better-ranked team (#19 vs. #25). “MarKE” has played less than five matches with the squad. Chaos played once against 100 Thieves in the past 30 days and they won 2-1. I would not agree with the bookmakers that 100 Thieves are the favorites in this match, but I won’t bet on Chaos to win. My suggestion is total maps over 2.5.
