Beyond Team Stats and Latest Results
After suffering four defeats in the opening five matches at the Perfect World Asia League Fall 2020, Beyond found themselves in a tough position. With a 2-5 record after seven rounds, they are desperate for a win here, and considering After is their direct rival for the playoff spot, this game is very important for the favorites. Beyond lost 12 of the previous 16 matches.
In the last three months, Beyond was excellent on Nuke (81.2% win rate), but that is the only map on which they have a positive record. They haven’t been playing well on Train (33.3%) and Mirage (35.7%), while Beyond is winless on Vertigo and Overpass. Beyond is playing with the current lineup since July 2020 and has a record of 31 wins and 34 losses on 65 maps.

After Team Stats and Latest Results
After is in a slightly better position than Beyond after seven rounds as they managed to record three victories, including the most recent one over Bren in straight maps. They don’t compete at other tournaments except for this one and it looks that they set their sights on the playoffs at the Perfect World Asia League Fall 2020. Still, with an underdog tag in this clash vs. Beyond, it’s not going to be easy to win, but a potential victory would secure them a place in the playoffs. After won five of the last nine games.
During the past three months, After was unbeaten on Dust2, but played only once on that map, while they produced strong displays on Inferno (75.0%) and played well on Mirage (57.1%). After’s lineup is not experienced as Beyond’s, as they have been playing together since September 2020 and on 20 maps with a record of 11 wins and nine losses. The lineup consists of Marek (1.03), 0i (0.96), B1NGO (1.02), WANGJ (1.07), and Sakai (0.91).

Beyond vs. After Betting Preview
Although the bookmakers are favoring Beyond in this one, I am not sure they are way better than After, as the bookies suggest. They are desperate to get a win, which could be very tricky for the ones who want to bet on them here, and After could exploit that fact and make a surprise. That’s why I don’t want to bet on the winner, and I am going with Over 2.5 maps instead.
