Isurus vs. RED Canids, Preview & Prediction - Free 10/12 CS:GO
Isurus is a slight favorite in this Best of 3 encounter when they take on RED Canids in the 3rd place battle at the Tribo to Major 2020. Both teams had no chance against BOOM and Sharks in the semi-finals but now will fight for more prize money and RMR Points, not only for prestige.

Isurus didn’t play well at the ESL Pro League Season 12 South America, where they suffered a couple of defeats to Sharks and Havan Liberty, but responded with three consecutive wins at this tournament.

Isurus vs. RED Canids Betting Preview
Although I am leaning toward Isurus in this game, especially because of RED Canids’ poor form of late, I am going to avoid betting on the winner. I am going with Over 2.5 maps because three of the last four Best of 3 H2H encounters produced a maximum of three maps, including the one they played at this tournament.
