Copenhagen Flames vs. Lyngby Vikings Betting Preview

It’s going to be a tight encounter that could go either way, so my advice is to avoid betting on the winner here. The loser will be eliminated, which means this game is quite significant for both sides, and they will fight till the end to avoid elimination. I expect a lengthy affair and a maximum of three maps. Bet on Over 2.5 maps.

The Pick: Over 2.5 Maps (-110 @GGBET)
