Sinners are massive favorites when they take on VP.Prodigy in the Swiss round 1 of the Shadow League Season 1 on Saturday. Each team will need to record three wins in the group stage of this tournament in order to qualify for the playoffs, and the Czech side is in a commanding position to open the tournament with a victory.
Sinners Team Stats and Latest Results
Sinners are in excellent form at the moment and they will be looking to get the seventh consecutive win when they meet VP.Prodigy on Saturday. They were flawless in the league stage of the Vulkan Fight Series 2020, where they secured three victories and secured the playoffs. The Czech side beat Lilmix, Lyngby Vikings, Nexus, Project X, Dignitas, and HellRaisers to book their place in the Grand Final. Sinners won 12 of the previous 16 matches.
During the last three months, Sinners were undefeated on Overpass (played three times) and were dominant on Inferno (85.7% win rate), Nuke (80.0%), and Vertigo (80.0%), while they were below average only on Mirage (33.3%).

They are on a four-game losing streak after losing the most recent one to ex-ETHEREAL at the Vulkan Fight Series 2020. Interestingly, each of their last two losses came to the same rival. VP.Prodigy lost five of the last seven games.

Sinners vs. VP.Prodigy Betting Preview
Sinners are red-hot right now and I don’t think VP.Prodigy has enough quality and experience to go toe-to-toe with the Czech team. Even though Sinners will play two games on Saturday, as they have to face Gambit in the Grand Final of the Vulkan Fight Series 2020, I don’t think they will have problems to get a comfortable victory here. Backing them to get a straight win is out of the question due to low odds, so I am going with Sinners to cover a -1.5 handicap.
The Pick: Sinners -1.5 (-167 @GG.BET)
