FURIA Academy vs. mouz NXT Betting Preview

I am psyched up about this matchup. These teams are coming to this tournament in great form, and we can only expect a phenomenon on Tuesday. Whoever loses this match will still make it to the playoffs, in my opinion, so I will avoid betting on the winner as it could go either way. The odds on over 2.5 maps are very attractive and given I am an Over bettor, there is no way I am going to miss this opportunity.

The Pick: Over 2.5 maps.
