Sangal vs. Lyngby Vikings Betting Preview
It’s going to be a tight encounter that could go either way, but I am leaning toward Lyngby Vikings and I am backing them to get a win here. I have to highlight the fact that both teams played a maximum of three maps in both of their respective games at this tournament, so if you don’t prefer betting on the winner, you can try with Over 2.5 maps. I am going with Lyngby Vikings, though.
