Espada vs. GODSENT Betting Preview

I cannot ignore the fact that Espada won six of the last seven matches, and although GODSENT is a better-ranked team at the moment and favorites in this one, I will avoid betting on the faves. Espada won the map in the only H2H duel so far, and I am pretty sure they will cause problems for GODSENT on Wednesday, so I am backing the underdogs to win at least a map and help us to win the Over bet.

The Pick: Over 2.5 Maps (+127 @GG.BET)
