Team Spirit beat Espada in both previous H2Hs, and both times they did it in straight maps. They already defeated Espada at this tournament and gave up 24 rounds in the process. In the first-ever H2H, Espada won 28 rounds, and considering the importance of this match, I am backing them to win at least 24 rounds. Spirit are massive favorites but don’t be shocked if Espada finally wins a map against their compatriots.
