Pick: Over 2.5 Maps (-120 @bet365)

Although c0ntact are a better-ranked team, but AVEZ had some decent results lately, and I wouldn’t write them off in this encounter. AVEZ already played two matches at the cs_summit 6 Europe Regional Qualifier, while c0ntact didn’t play a match in the last two weeks, which can be a chance for the underdogs here. I am not backing AVEZ to win; however, they are capable of winning at least one map, and that’s why I am going with Over 2.5 Maps.
