ex-Winstrike vs. SAW Betting Preview

ex-Winstrike is a better-ranked team (#21 vs. #30) and the bookmaker favorite with the best odds -175 @ 1xbet. The outcome of the match will be greatly influenced by the map on which it is played. If it is played on Mirage, SAW has no chance to win this duel, but if it is played on Nuke, they can surprise the opponent. That's why I don't want to bet on the winner of the match. I will put my money on a safer bet over 24.5.
