FURIA vs. Complexity H2H Record
These rivals have met just once before, and FURIA won that clash 2-1 at the DreamHack Open Anaheim 2020 in February this year after coming from behind.
FURIA vs. Complexity Betting Preview
I am far from being impressed with Complexity’s form of late. It’s clear that they are going through a rough phase of the season, and even though they recorded a pair of wins at this tournament, they needed a maximum of three maps to do it. Maybe we will have another three-map game on Friday like it was the case in the lone H2H encounter but this time around, I am not going with Over 2.5 maps. I prefer betting on FURIA to win instead. The Brazilians are in a better form, while their lineup has more experience of playing together.
The Pick: FURIA to win (-120 @PINNACLE)
